  God is not an element both in religious fanaticism and atheism alike

  by exWTslave in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  in my intimate conversations with many of my atheists friends i have found that their real problem is the human rights abuse of the religious fanaticssomething which god hates (not the lack of proof for gods existence) (means when the religions went to one extreme, their opponents go to another extremethus god is not at all an element in religious fanaticism and atheism alike) atheists shun, belittle or resist proofs for the existence of god, because they fear it will only further strengthen the religion from which the fanaticism arisethus object of atheists attack is fanaticism (not god) .

  hence what atheists do is really a service to the humanity (while fanaticism is a crime against humanity).

  hence when the atheists ask for proof for the existence of god, one need not take it seriously.

  BOTR,

  If you can't understand what that means within the context of a post about science then you must have the English comprehension abilities of a child.

  He won't. He hasn't read it himself or he would comment on it.

  Cofty,

  It's astonishing how often our more fundamentalist fellow posters do that.

  Kalos,

  I have also read both of them in full. The second I agree with, science does not have a theory of abiogenesis, although that has nothing to do with atheism. The only thing that can be said is that any scientific understanding of abiogenesis will materialistic not supernatural.

  The first link was meaningless drivel that answered nothing, however if you really want me to I can criticise it. Normally when I go through line by line and tear this sort of thing to shreds the poster normally slinks off never to be seen again. If however you are going to stick around and back up your link I am happy to oblige.

  Well, that is three atheists who have stated that the OP is incorrect and zero atheists in support of the OP. So far the OP has 0% support in his assertions (Possibly plagiarised) regarding the beliefs of atheists. Perhaps the OP can get some of his imaginary atheist friends to post in support of his ludicrous statement.

  I'm an atheist and can assure you that I don't believe in god because there is not one single scrap of empirical evidence and has nothing to do with the inhumanity of fanatical people who claim to believe. I suspect that your 'many intimate conversations with atheist friends' is a figment of your imagination.

  Junction-guy, all the arguments you trot out about gays seeking equal rights would slot nicely into the kinds of things that have been said in earlier times about the audacity of other groups jostling for equality. Women who spoke out of turn in the presence of men were accused of being uppity, coloreds as needing to show respect and other ethnicities of staying in their designated places.

  Given junction-guy's history he really ought to have a little more sympathy.

  Firstly please stop SHOUTING, it's rude.

  Marry to express their LOVE for each other or to BENEFIT from the laws that married people have.

  Why should they not get to do both?

  If it were SOLELY to express their love for each other then why NOT just have a CIVIL ceremony WHY force the GAY AGENDA on the CHRISTIANS.....

  There is no such thing as a 'gay agenda' it's just people standing up for their right to be treated the same as everyone else. Of course there is the small point the the christian agenda has been forced on people for the last thousand years or so. It's not fun when the shoe is on the other foot is it?

  Christians did NOT set the standard YHVH did!

  No, people did. Tell me do you wear clothes of mixed fibres? Do you eat shrimp or lobster? Stoned anyone recently? No? then you don't get to use the bible to dictate other peoples lifestyles because that would make you a hypocrite.

  Whether one is gay or straight or just haven't got a clue, virgins, there is always something that we find in ours that is not acceptable/compatible to Him.

  I assume you are referring to the fact that preachers are just as likely to be doing a bit of molestation on the side anyway?

  Perhaps if they all got together they could melt all these little knick knacks down and then they could make a nice statue of a calf and paint it gold?

  A complete inability to articulate what the arguments against their own beliefs are. You see it on here all the time, some fundy starts spouting off about evolution even though they don't understand anything about evolution.

  Jhine,

  I will read the books you suggest after you have read the books Cofty suggests in the whale evolution thread. After all I have had an entire childhood learning creationism and then educated myself on science and evolution. I need no further evidence that creationists are long on talk and completely empty handed when it come to evidence. You however, are wilfully ignorant of the mountains of evidence for evolution. Once you can explain to me in your own words what scientists use as the evidence for evolution then you are in a position to argue why you think it's wrong.

  I noticed of course that you fail to take me up on the challenge to give me some examples of the religious side to this debate.
