  Why are atheists so intent on scorning "believers"?

  by Chariklo in

  until recently, i had never encountered this word "believers" used as it is being used on this board, to describe pejoratively a group of people.

  it's not clear to me whether they scorn all who have a faith of some sort.

  do they include buddhists, hindus, followers of the baha'i faith, followers of the cargo cult, native americans along with christians, or is it just christians who are honoured with this epithet?.

  Unless you haven't realized it, majority of this forum is some sort of atheist.

  We rule!

  I'm an atheist, and it doesn't bother me if people say it's a type of faith.

  Just gives me a good chuckle.

  Atheism->Deism->Theism

  i have noticed that there is a lot of angst directed towards believers and non believers so i thought i would make a thread explaining how it all works from my own perspective.

  the reality is that neither believers nor unbelievers are right or wrong, they simply are, if that makes sense.

  to better understand the perspective ideologies i have constructed a map so to speak of how it all works.. the fact is that we are all products of our environment, we cannot escape this at first, but we can eventually, but first we have to accept that we were first a product of our environment.

  well i say the same condition for life evolving are relatively repeated over and over again in perhpas billions of solar systems with different combinations of chemical reactions producing all kind of self replicating molecules not just carbon based or dna based.

  many stars having a much earlier formation and intelligent life much more before our earth was formed billions of years ago.. .

  It's fun to speculate,

  But it's sad the human race may never know if there's life out there. Even at the speed of light our Galaxy is immense!

  If there's any kind of life out there we have better chance of finding it our own solar system.

  Would a JC turned violent get any publicity or covered up?

  by Lied2NoMore in

  lets say you meet with a jc and in the midst of it you snap because you feel intimidated or bullied and start swinging chairs at the heads and limbs of elders and actually break bones or send one into a coma or worse accidentally kill one of them.

  you think they would press charges?

  think they would be advised by legal to keep it quiet to avoid negative publicity?

  We'll probably never know what's going on in their heads. They're more likely to be delusional. Power does that to you.
