Richard Dawkins: Islam is Bad

[Frisivisia]

I pretty much have to now. I can't sit back and watch while someone bashes on people who support my rights and don't bother anyone.

I mean what the fuck reason is there to be such an ass and bash on people for a belief they happen to have when they aren't harming anyone. It's just bigotry.

There is a difference between bash and criticize though.

Not saying Biden is/was simply criticizing either.

Saying I don't like Libertarianism and think it's stupid is criticism. Why isn't it the same when it's your thing?

[The Steel Magnolia]

Frisivisia: "Religion is Nazism."

Jesus, you really do want this to happen.

You said it dude. There's literally nothing more I have to do.

What's with this idea that I'm bigoted against religious people? I'm not!

You overgeneralized.

Derpty derp sir.

[Frisivisia]

My deep-seated hatred for white people?

Oh wait, the "Joe disagrees with me so bigot" thing. This is a very popular misconception.

no. The part where you hate religion and the religious, however, makes it so.

Christ's sake, you are intent on making sure that you repeat that loud and often, aren't you?

[The Parkus Empire]

It is douchy. But atheists should feel embarrassed. That nut doesn't speak for all of them.

Then they should say it to the nut's biggest defender here.

"I'm an atheist, and you do not speak for me."

I'm entirely serious. I promise to do the same every time some religious fundy comes up on here, so let's see how it goes, eh?

His atheism is not my own. His is a belief, mine is lack of one.

Because there's a difference between disliking and wanted to get rid of it. And generalizing about it too.

[New Libertarian States]

I don't like X idea, so I think it's bad and equating it to National Socialism isn't flaming.
I wouldn't compare religion to Nazism I think it was a poor analogy .
Maybe chopped liver would have been better, or something not as horrible as National Socialism

Tell that to Joe.

Again, he may have made just a bad analogy to the first thing that came to mind.

[Torcularis Septentrionalis]

Oh, please don't take them like that. I don't hate religious people, I simply dislike and disbelieve religion and feel that the world would be better without it. I dunno if it's just that I'm tired, but I keep missing the part where I call for genocide against the Muslims.

In order to get the world free of religion, you have to free it from religious people...there is only one way to do that right, you know.

I think everybody accepting a live and let live attitude would be much better, myself.

Queen Torc agrees.
It has been decreed, kindness and brotherly love should rain upon us, and all transgressors will be met with a stern "UGGGGHHH."

[The Steel Magnolia]

Sure, I think he's definitely regretting it now.

But it's still out there.

He makes atheism look like a faith when it clear as hell isn't.

[Frisivisia]

Can I get the linkedy link? We can all put things we would like our opponents to have said in quotes, it doesn't make it so.

For instance:

The Steel Magnolia: "I enjoy burning copies of Harry Potter in front of children who wanted to read them at the library. Ha ha ha."

Why are you so bigoted against young Harry Potter fans?

[Hathradic States]

Saying I don't like Libertarianism and think it's stupid is criticism. Why isn't it the same when it's your thing?

Saying I don't like homosexuality and think it's stupid is criticism. Why isn't it the same!?!?!

One could argue the whole "choice" thing, there.

Point taken. Anyone who dislikes anything is a bigot.

King Hath disagrees with that.

All transgressors of the peace and love shall be burnt at the stake, and served to the homeless.

One's argument would be null and void.

IE They woul have none.

You have been saying abolish all religion, world would be better off with religion, etc. etc.

I'm a she.

*backs into corner and mutters*

Shit nuggets. I feel idiotic. *jumps into the wall*

You have no excuses for that.

Pretty much. I'm not singling out Fris here, I don't think Fris is much of a bigot, but I have seen posters before go on about how all religious people are stupid and irrational, or that they are all just bad people. That shit just ain't right.

Fris is only one of many. Every time I see someone say HERPA DERPA ALL RELIGION BAD! SMASH! RAWR! I think what the fuck have Wiccans ever done to you, seriously?

[Frisivisia]

Nope, because I'm an evil bigot who loves Hitler. Haven't you read every one of Maggie's posts for the last fifteen minutes?

King Hath disagrees with that.

The Queen thinks that that is not very peaceful and loving???

[Nanatsu no Tsuki]

His atheism is not my own. His is a belief, mine is lack of one.

He makes atheism look like a faith when it clear as hell isn't.

I guess that depends on how atheism is viewed by the particular atheist. I've heard of people holding atheism as a belief system, which is very weird to me as atheism to me has always been the lack of a belief system based on deities.

[New Libertarian States]

Again, he may have made just a bad analogy to the first thing that came to mind.

Sure, I think he's definitely regretting it now.

But it's still out there.

So, it's a matter of bad analogy, not that he's equating religion to National Socialism.
That's the whole issue.

[The Steel Magnolia]

Saying I don't like homosexuality and think it's stupid is criticism. Why isn't it the same!?!?!

Point taken. Anyone who dislikes anything is a bigot.

Anyone who dislikes a social group purely based on social group membership, however, is.

Can you though?

There was a study posted earlier about the brain differences between atheists and theists.

When I agreed with the "abolish religion" guy, it was obvious that he meant through completely nonviolent, non-forceful methods like teaching reason and science.

Where are you guys getting this quote that I hate all religious people and want to concentration camp them? Can I get a link?

[Hathradic States]

Actually, I have. I read three pages back because it is late and I have nothing better to do. You do sound bigoted, but not to Hitler levels.
