  Help me become a real CRAZY FUNDIE ATHEIST parent!

  hello friends!.

  once in a while you hear about fundie atheists, and i have desided to become one.

  but i need a bit of advice.. you see, apparently the fundie atheists are as messed up as their worst religious "fundie" counterparts, so i got some expectations to live up to.. i have desided to focus on how i should raise my child, since the religious dickery i hate the most has to do with how children are raised.

  i was hoping to show that no matter how poor parenting skill atheists can display, no matter how poor their judgement is (and i am certain there are numorous examples), it is just not possible to find the atheist equivalent of a larger religious sect, who will stone their children to death or let them die because a bunch of old farts god supposedly hand-picked think some medical procedure is "bad".

  Fundy atheists kill their offspring in gruesome ways and calll it "choice". They also tell their gay children they are stuck that way and there is nothing they can do about it. Before you object that there is nothing wrong with the above, keep in mind that Fundie religious nuts think there is nothing wrong with what they do.

  I think the above example is about equivalent (in terms of potential trauma) to telling your child about hellfire or armageddon in a graphic way...

  Exactly my point.

  Stephen Hawkings is a nutter for believing in a fantasy

  stephen hawkings from here:.

  in the grand design we explain why, according to quantum theory, the cosmos does not have just a single existence, or history, but rather that every possible history of the universe exists simultaneously.

  we question the conventional concept of reality, posing instead a "model-dependent" theory of reality.

  Sure, but there are those who really, truly believe in a multiverse.

  Tell them their life is meaningless, that it is just a cosmic accident and 100 years from now it will not have made a difference that they were ever here. Be sure to them this everyday.

  Stephen Hawkings From here:

  In The Grand Design we explain why, according to quantum theory, the cosmos does not have just a single existence, or history, but rather that every possible history of the universe exists simultaneously. We question the conventional concept of reality, posing instead a "model-dependent" theory of reality. We discuss how the laws of our particular universe are extraordinarily finely tuned so as to allow for our existence, and show why quantum theory predicts the multiverse--the idea that ours is just one of many universes that appeared spontaneously out of nothing, each with different laws of nature

  There is not a shred of evidence, just speculation, I thought that scientists only believed in what they can see? How would it ever be proven?

  Take them to watch a partial-birth abortion and tell them it is no different than having their tonsils removed.

  A consistent scrutiny should be applied, regardless of a person's belief or disbelief. And that is my point. NOBODY should start judging from a presupposition. Same goes for an atheist as for a Christian.

  I agree - if I understand what you mean by "consistent scrutiny". The truth of the matter is that we all start from presuppositions. If we didn't have axioms, we wouldn't able to draw conclusions.

  What I find striking is that Fundy Atheists have the same attitude as the Hard Core Baptists I grew up with. It was that attitude that first caused me to question, then leave them. If I leave one group because of an attitude, I am not about to join another with the same attitude. BTW, those same GARBC Baptists basically shun me and consider me to be an apostate bound for Hell.

  What I find strange is that while claiming that there is no Truth, they believe that they alone have the Truth. In other words, if a person has any ability to think, the only conclusion they can come to is to agree with atheists. If one concludes that there is a God, weeeellllll... that is evidence in itself that they are incapable of rational thought. Do Baptists have the same line of thinking? Yep. If you are going to climb into that boat with them, that is your problem.

  I am no more interested in hearing Fundy Atheists preach and lecture at me than I am some preacher from the God Almighty Righteous Baptist Church. I am more than willing to exchange ideas with anyone. The whole reason I am on this board is to share ideas with others and to get a broader idea what others are thinking.

  China has the best health care in the world? Newsweek has lost its last shred of credibility.
