Re: Atheism/Theism thread

take it here instead |

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
I'm actually pretty curious as to why people still believe in higher powers.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
I'll start off by saying historically, more bad things have come from religion than good, therefore it is an infectious disease that we seeminly get within the first few years of our lives that lasts until high school/college for most people (nowadays). It does more harm than good, and while the philosophies might be good, we don't need religion to teach us them.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
RB, if you're a christian I suggest reading the Bible.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
Half the shit in the bible doesn't even apply to modern christianity anyway. Most of this is the damning anti-gay crap along with the silly haircut laws etc.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
Reading the Bible will make you an atheist, if you're religion's main book is the Bible, anyway.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
My religious beliefs are pretty... arbitrary. I won't bother mentioning it here though since I have a hard time seeing people here respecting what I truly believe. I have only mentioned it to two people, whom are my closest friends of the many that I have made in my life.
I will say that I am not atheist though. |

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
And once again..@Choofers. I'm neither here nor there, i guess you could say i'm on the, "fence" because i'm neither Theist, or Atheist, if that makes sense. But i'm sure it doesn't to some people, i'm still developing an opinion, perhaps this thread could help.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
and additionally, which i guess is a sub-tangent of ignorance, another big one is the passing down of religion via family / communities.
like many belief systems or political ideologies, they are usually passed down from family to family if you remain ignorant as to not build your own viewpoint but rather blindly accept the beliefs of your ancestors or local communities to be true. what's the term for this passing down of belief systems via family, reincarnate? It eludes me right now. Last edited by Coolboyrulez0; 02-14-2013 at 04:46 PM.. |

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
I respect people's right to believe what they want to believe.
I don't respect religion. (o:

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
It's really, really hard to be both scientifically literate and theist at the same time because you start to see why religion simply isn't needed to explain anything you think it might

I would like to take this moment to formally apologize for any batshit crazy arguments I made in the past. I am definitely not atheist, but all the logical evidence is on that side. I wish Christians could just accept the Bible is flawed beyond repair and just focus on the basic tenants, i.e. God made us and wants us to love everyone so we can all live in paradise. The end.

Re: Atheism/Theism thread
I'm definitely open to atheism, i just find it rather hard to believe any given thing cited from a scientist, just as i find it hard to believe in any given religion thats' only supposed facts are from a book. Everyone in the lent thread definitely misunderstood me when i opened this debate, i meant to be as FAIR as possible, not rant about my religious beliefs(Which i don't have)
