Confession of Athiesm.

[pixl]

Look, if you define brainwashing as repeated exposure to a single source of consistent, biased information than you just got brainwashed too.

ha ya, but my mom is christian. My dad actually surprised me when i was 8 when he said he didn't belive in god. I was like "How do you not belive in god?"

but think of it this way, if you showed a hindu who has never heard of god or christianity, and said "this is all true" He will probably think you were a nut

um

Again, you can't get brainwashed into not having a belief in something.

Bullstuff. Raise a child constantly telling them that religion and Christianity is complete BS and they will come out just as bigoted as someone that was raised strictly Christian.

I'm atheist thanks to my dad. He didn't brainwash me into believing in loving fairy tales. This is a huge loving chain of brainwash. Religion in all. Don't give me stuff about big bang because i don't believe that either. The only thing i believe in is evolution, only because there is proof and it makes loving sense. Really, you say you don't believe in a fat guy delivering presents, but you believe that there is some old guy who has magic powers and has a magic tree.

please dont get offended even though you will ):

You are a stupid person. That is all.

Religion was not created to be a "fairytale". I think I have gone over this with you people.

I was pondering this earlier today:

Religion, as you should know, was created to explain the unexplainable at the time; volcanoes, earthquakes, etc. But the world has gone through many different religions:

Catholic/Christian, Hebrew, Muslim, Buddhism, or Mormon

Now, these are mostly modern religions, still practiced and believed in today, some of the earlier ones were the Greeks and the Romans. As I said, all of these religions were attempts to explain the unexplainable.

Now with modern science, we are able to explain most of the things that religion was created for. Thus, today there is much more atheism, but that is not the point.

What I was pondering was the different religion levels in humanity. When we were a young species, we could barely explain what made the sky roar and the trees sway. So we created multiple gods to explain every little thing. Then we started getting more technologically advanced, able to explain more things, so religions reverted to a one god "theory" if you will. So as humanity progressed through the ages, and with the enlightment, you could argue that religion has formed or changed to fit the scientific establishment of the time. Such as, the Greeks believed one of their gods, Poseidon, or the Roman, Neptune, controlled the sea and earthquakes. But as a Catholic/Christian, do you believe that "God" controls those? Or do you accept scientific fact that the sea is controlled by the celestial bodies, the wind, and other Earthly features?

So, in summary, I believe as a "Non-Believer" or an "Atheist", that religions of all sorts are not technically related to science, but are, as I said, formed by it.

Yeah. You never know with Christians.

the difference is, atheist arent killing Christians like they did us.
in fact christian creed STILL demands the persecution of non believers. modern times didnt undo all that. unless your saying you no longer follow your god's will.
people dont forget the evils of the church just because its been awhile. nothing has actually changed.

Religion wars, religion wars, tisk tisk tisk.

That's another thing.

People keep saying there is evidence for the universe being created (which there isn't) and then they go from that vague statement to saying their own brand of religion must be correct.

Welcome to the Athiesm club, snacks are on the table to the left.

yes but the pool is closed.

[Tom Gunn]

Good Lord, Inv3rted you just denied that Stalin never Jailed Christians and sent them to Siberia.

Or the fact That Riddler killed over 6,000,000 jews.

Or that the Romans never burned Christians at the stake for their beliefs.

One of the primary reasons.

Dammit. :C

[duke 838]

I am athiest aswell, but only my sister and one of my cousins know, my family is christian, and everybody except like four people i know are christian. I would be judged at my school, and my best freind would flip stuff and be worried that i was going to burn in hell so i don't wanna say anything to them.

[pixl]

Religion murders are stupid.

Heck, to hell with religion.
No one knows how the forget we all happened.
So stop fighting over it. It is like fighting over what is in the mystery box.

1. Stalin jailed people not because of his lack of religion but because he was a fascist. People having their own beliefs didn't work for him.

2. Riddler was a Christian and to argue otherwise is foolish.

3. The Romans had their own religion, you dumbass.
