I am 27 years old and I have to say that within my generation I find that most people accept that individual views are just that. Why do we find the need to prove to other people how right we are and how incredibly stupid they are for believing the way that they do? I wake up every day and attempt to express peace and understanding to the individuals I come in contact with. Everybody on here likes to say stuff like "Peace and Love" but I guess thats all lip service. I have read parts of the Bible and I have attended plenty of Sunday morning services. The one thing that I take away from it all is that I do not have all of the answers. I believe that there are other dimensions at play that I can never understand. However through intense personal experiences there is no doubt in my mind that God exists. So what I am left with is the reality that I must trust in a higher power. Nothing in that individuals long jumbled list of personal opinions gave me any concrete evidence that a God cannot exist. What I did pick up on at the end is that he would like to pass yet another law to control people and give the Government more power.
So now I will wait for someday to call me a fag or an idiot.

I am an atheist. I was agnostic until 9/11/2001.

okay guys, here's the scoop. Christians today are the way they are because the Bible was translated by single minded and biased people, but NOT written by them. Christians are famous for cramming a bunch of shit that makes them feel better down everyone's throat, but you start trying to even offer another point of view you are a poor lost soul, mistaken, blindly flailing around in this plane of existance... Point is, they were raised that way and they will stay that way. But planing the guns and loading the canons isn't what needs to be done.. although we'd love to... anyhow, don't knock everything just cause a bunch of crazed lunatics are slingin' it. There's truth in the Bible, and there's a Jah lookin down to the earth, and He gave Jahpeople love to light the world. Jah be praised.

#1 rule besides not telling about your grow op...

dont talk about religion with people that have their whole lives/identities tied up in it...

they just get more rabid and less likely to see reason, and who can forget, nobody expects the spanish inquisition! (except all those poor bastards that were burned at the stake in the name of christian god, really think it couldnt happen again?)

It's all snake oil. There is no organized religon that isn't. Even Buddhism which shouldn't be devolves into religon . There seems to be a deep need in many people to have a outside all-powerful force to thank and blame, after all, such a great thing as mankind COULDN'T be just the result of random chance,could it?

Christianity debunked? Thats a huge joke

Yet another atheist, angry at religion. And he thinks he is earth's scientific representative and historian...

You say that as if religion didn't merit our scorn.

christians are about love, and being a peacemaker, not shoving rules down peoples throat.

Sure, there are alot of things about religion that I am fed up about. Like terrorists who think that killing you will make them martyrs because you don't accept their idea of God. But come on, in what way is Christianity effecting your life as an atheist email468 - Christians aren't going to stone you for not being Christian, you don't have Christians knocking at your door forcing you to repent your sins..

The problem I have with people who label themselves as atheists is that they generally tend to bash Christians. To a certain extent thats ok because everyone is entitled to an opinion, but it becomes a problem when atheists try to convince other people that religion is a lie. If you are an atheist - thats ok, its a choice you've made and a choice you are entitled to. If you are religious, thats fine - because thats a choice you've made and you are entitled to have that choice. Don't go around bashing people who turn to religion for hope just because of what you believe, as far as I know there is no mathematical formula that can prove or disprove either theories.

There is no way that we can prove or disprove the existence of an intelligent creator, when you show me this mathematical formula that can prove that billions of people were wrong I will denounce my beliefs.
