Religious folks-Whose morality do you use when you ignore something in your religion?

[↓R↑LYB]

Why does it seem like Atheists always want to argue and poke holes in everyone else's religion rather than just enjoying not having one?

I have no problem with atheists, but its just funny that the people who don't believe in any religion are always the first ones to bring it up. And I find that most athiest know more about the bible than most average people but sadly they research it just so they can find flaws and contridictions to use in arguements later.

Everybody should just try to do the right things and try to be a good person.

It's the vocal minority breh. I never talk about religion with anyone. Mainly because it's a useless endeavour. On both sides you have loud mouthed overly opinionated people who want to tell everyone else how to live their lives or how they should think.

Let's not sit there and pretend that there aren't millions of Christians who tell people they're going to hell for not believing their brand of dogma on a daily basis. There's way more annoying religious zealots than there are atheist zealots, but they're both annoying as fukk

It's just a bunch of butt hurt people that can't get over their childhood. Last time I checked it's relgious people that are talked down on tv movies Internet.

Stop it slime, chill with the Christian persecution complex. Christianity is the religion of choice in this country. There's Christian radio stations, TV channels, movies, dating sites, Christian stores, conferences, plays. shyt every single president has been a Christian and there's only been 1 openly atheist congressman in US history.

Christians are under attack as much as white heterosexual males are.

Nonsense. How many openly atheist TV personalities dissing religion do you see? People promote God and religion all over TV all the time. Even and speak on the Bible and religion often on First Take. Don't act like a couple of primetime sitcoms make up the entirety of television programming

There is no doubt that religiosity is more pervasive and dominant in society than the opposite. Something like less than 10% of people are atheists. Being an atheist is still taboo for many people at work or even in their homes.

And religion has a huge effect on politics and government. Politicians gets elected to Congress by appealing to religiosity, and you see a sustained effort to introduce creationism into classrooms. A lot of the inertia you see in Congress today is in large part derived from an appeal to the backwards redneck constituencies of many Republicans who compromise with Obama is blasphemous because he's a godless evildoer. One of the two major parties (GOP) basically is essentially a quasi-religious outfit.

The 75% support among the public that the Iraq War had before they went in based upon lies was in large part predicated upon an anti-Muslim religious fervor among the overwhelmingly Christian electorate of American.

If I'm not mistaken, there is only ONE openly atheist person in Congress today...Pete Stark. There are probably more, but they're scared to "come out" which speaks volumes about the gravity held by religion in our society.

It was only less than 25 years ago when the fukking President of the United States (George Bush Sr.) said atheists shouldn't even be considered Americans.

Things are changing thankfully, and more Americans are abandoning religion. The only person who needs to stop being butthurt is you and just accept that.

My guess is, he was tired.

So an ALL KNOWING, ALL POWERFUL, ALL PRESENT BEING...GETS...TIRED?



AIGHT nikka. WHATEVER.

How many Gods have you met?

GOOD QUESTION...

NONE...

WHAT ABOUT YOU?

You're basing God, something you dont believe in off something in your imagination which doesnt make a lot of sense.

Isn't it funny how god always agrees with you?

But yeah...i'm the one who believes in an "imaginary" god...

*why doesnt god act like how i think god should act*

Meanwhile you claim to know the mind of god...

Who are you ? Someone God allowed to exist.

Or...more like the sperm that won the rat race?

Matter of fact, friend, if you have anyone who believes in God in your direct bloodline, you wouldnt even exist without a belief in God. Imagine one of your God fearing/believeing parents/grandparents telling the other the type of things you're saying now. They would have moved onto someone else and never bonded to create you.

yeah...what about all those native americans who didn't know about the abrahamic god...its not like they reproduced or anything...

Praise God, for your existence, friend. Thats my God, even showing haters love.

Hinduism would like a word with you....

People who are good in their chest and do good things do not concern themselves with this type of campaign.

Yeah because they don't need a book to tell them how not to be a dikk to other people...

You do not like the responsibility of morality and seek to tear holes in Gods logic so you can feel comfortable at night thinking about all the demonic things you've done.

like how you don't like being accountable for the shyt in the bible you don't agree with.

All you have to do is repent, and obviously believe in God friend and he will offer that forgiveness to you. He knows you're trippin right now friend.

Why would I repent to a god who made me do what I did..

Ask god why he made me not believe in it.

 

[Mr. Somebody]

Ask god why he made me not believe in it. [/SIZE]

He didnt. You chose not to. In the garden of eden god gave man free will because they wanted to know evil by disobeying God. You are disobedient to the Lord so im sure you know evil very well but i guess that you have not learned that the demonic realm is a usless passion to be indulging in. You're still immature so hopefully you'll learn that later.

 

[☑︎#VoteDemocrat]

They may talk about it, but they might not talk about it with YOU. And considering how angry you seem about religion, I can't even blame em.

Why do I have to be angry to call someone on their shyt?

I think i'm being accountable.

I'm agnostic and don't believe in none of that shyt and I wouldn't have a conversation about religion with your ass.

You're probably an atheist.

Atheist = Do you BELIEVE in god or not? Yes or no.

Agnostic = Do you KNOW if there is a god or not? Yes or no.

Theism asks what you BELIEVE.

Gnosticism asks what you KNOW.

I'm an agnostic atheist.

I don't know if a god exists, but there is not enough evidence for me to believe that one does.

Know the difference.

On top of that, what the fukk makes you think anyone owes your ass an explanation on what they believe?

No one was forced to reply. If they can't defend their beliefs then thats not my problem

People believe all types of shyt I don't agree with. Why the fukk will I go out of my way to combat every ideology I don't subscribe to ?

Forbid we actually discuss shyt on a...forum...

Like I said, we get it. You think religion is stupid and Christians are all hypocrites and idiots.

As christians? Yeah.

As people, there are some smart ones out there.

Let them live their lives however they see fit, especially since not a damn person on this site life affects yours.

Aye nikka. don't come a message board talking about how you don't like people...talking...about...topics.

Ya'll stay on this "leave us alone shyt"

No topic is free from being discussed. You're free to hit that NEW TOPIC button when you want to playboy.

So this dikk head god of yours makes me and gives me the option to not be convinced he exists...then gets mad that I choose not to believe in him?

Why does god have so many human emotions?

Well its more about you doing the degrading things you do in your private life that we dont actually know about but he sees you do and then disrespecting him. Yes, he gave you a choice and you chose filth. Hopefully you make a comeback because right now you seem to demonic based on your choice of words and disrespectful language. Have a nice day.

 

[the cac mamba]

For all you non-religious demonic folks....a "hypothetical" question for you (since you don't believe in Jesus)

Your god made me this way...remember?

 

[Mr. Somebody]

Like i said, you made a choice to be a demon and thats a burden hopefully you overcome before you perish. You mine as well love and embrace God because if you do you'll be an asset to humanity. If you dont, and find out we were right......



On the other hand people who love God arent missing out on anything by catering to satanic lifestyles besides pain, friend.

Any proof of this?

All you're doing is making a bet you can't even confirm.

You might as well hope you're doing right by the volcano gods.

oh...so even believing in god doesn't cure pain?

Pretty pointless investment IMO.

What are you getting out of living like a demon that makes you so passionate about not believing in God. It cant be anything that makes this conversation an investment with a point, friend.

Who said I was living "like a demon?"

I'm just looking for the proof of what you're saying as being true.

You keep saying shyt but theres no proof.

You need christianity to be a good person. I don't...whats that say about you?

I don't need a reward... you do.

 

[devizelle]

Even though I feel like @Napoleon is being kind of combative, I've always had the same question. I don't consider myself religious but I'm definitely not an atheist--and the reason I haven't been able to get with Christianity like that is because I don't understand how people can choose a religion where so much of what they do is considered wrong. Premarital sex is a great example. If you truly believe in the Bible, then it's a sin. So shouldn't you NOT EVER do it (or at least try to?) I'm not even saying you have to stone women or anything, I'm talking about people dealing with their own actions. I like a lot of the messages in the Bible but the idea that not having sex until I get married makes me a better person is just ehhh.

I just feel like, if I really wanted to be a Christian, I'd have to stop doing a lot of things that I have no desire to stop doing. And I don't see how not doing those things would make me more moral, or a better person. Like, would God want a person who has premarital sex but whose life is dedicated to making the world a better place, or a person who DOESN'T have premarital sex but doesn't do anything with their life? Like they don't hurt the world but they don't help it either.

Maybe my line of thinking is too narrow?
