Planet of the Atheists

[Ucropi]

"Planet of the Atheists", Oh wow I think I almost fainted from the sudden joy. Think how much better the planet would be without religion. No crusades, no dark ages no jihads...

[The Scientific States]

As long as there is little animosity towards religious people, I don't particularly mind.

If the world does become more and more atheist, I do hope that people don't hold grudges against religious people. I'm an atheist, but it bothers me when some atheists are rude or hold grudges against religious people.

What? Those things already happened.

I see a world where sinfulness is good and encouraged. A world of hatred, materialism, narcissism and evil. I can pray, but such things are out of my control. If this was meant to be, so be it. . but it is a dark path we walk down.

Psalm 14:1.
"The fool says in his heart, 'There is no God.' They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds, there is none who does good."

So, if the world becomes increasingly atheistic, you believe that people will be more narcissistic, downright evil people? May I ask why?

Because the supernatural being that over 2000+ years of worship which has never produced any proof wouldn't be around to tell us not to be naughty.

Certainly. Atheists believe only in themselves, and it is itself a sin born of pride. Without faith, people will be (far) less inclined to be loving and humble, less inclined to help those in need, to do good for others. There will be less happiness and fulfillment in lives; people will live without purpose and direction, looking to science (which used to be a way to understand God's creation, but now seeks to disprove God exists; this is not the purpose of science yet so many atheists are deluded enough to believe it. It is a religion in and of itself, really, but the priests are called men of science) and secularism and most of all their own egos to fill the void that was once held by faith in something greater.

Well, most of what you've said there is completely wrong.

Science is not being used by Atheists to disprove God's existence. Now, it might be used to disprove something like a global flood but a supernatural, invisible entity like God is not being scientifically examined because it is impossible to examine something like that.

Also Science is not a religion.

Plus Atheists don't believe only in themselves; seriously, that makes no sense. I don't have faith in a supernatural, invisible entity but I don't think of myself as any less loving or humble or less inclined to help someone out.

I'm also pretty happy and fulfilled despite being an Atheist.

Atheists do not believe in the existence of deities for a variety of reasons, but normally it is because they accept the scientific method, and recognize the fact that there is not scientific evidence to support the existence of any deity. That's not pride, that's recognition of reality; and let me tell you, it is incredibly liberating. Instead of being told what the purpose of life is we get to decide it for ourselves. Instead of being told to be good people (or be punished in a variety of ways) we are for intrinsic reasons. Acknowledging the limitations of our understanding makes us humble, recognizing that there is no omnipotent power to help the less fortunate makes acts of charity far more important and meaningful.

Honestly, you don't understand a single thing about atheism and what it means.

i like to think so. but maybe MC knows me better than i know myself?

Darn it.

Darn it.

I'm not sure how we would determine what is good from The Bible and other holy books. They're not very clear or direct or informative concerning many things, and are contradictory otherwise.

We really only have ourselves. Our reason, our biology, our psychology, our society.

"Planet of the Atheists", Oh wow I think I almost fainted from the sudden joy. Think how much better the planet would be without religion. No crusades, no dark ages no jihads...

And also no protest about things like protesting against cloning due to it "being against the will of god or some other stuff like that"
Also that war in Iraq? Non existing!

Of course. I gave money to this homeless guy once. There are also many thing that I did but I can't remember it due to it being easy to forget really......

Bush's invasion of Iraq had nothing to do with religion.

I seriously doubt that's ever going to happen.

For a religious person, you don't seem to grasp the concept of original sin and how punishing it is.

The religious have committed original sin over and over and over...

I think he is referring the the mess known as ISIS.

Is it bad that, when I first heard of ISIS fucking up shit in the Middle East, my first thought was "I can't believe they named themselves after an Adult Swim cartoon spy agency", and that my second thought was "I wonder how the writers of Archer are going to incorporate this into the show"? I feel like I should feel bad about that.

Why are atheists worse in preaching than mormons?

Everywhere i go on campus
"GOD ISNT REAL DONT BELIEVE LIES also take our book the god delusion"

The religious have done the same thing for thousands of years.

Now, we suffer the consequences, among them having to listen to atheists try to fight back.
