  An important difference between atheists and true believers

  true believers, whether christian, muslim or whatever, want to convert you, they want you to believe what they do, and they're willing to go to extremes to make it happen.

  atheists don't really care what you believe, and don't go out of their way to convert someone.. http://ow.ly/vn1jz an example of what believers in power do to suppress any difference in thought.

  http://ow.ly/vraeo an example of why believers want to suppress different ideas (because they can't win in a fair fight, that's why).

  I resorted to no falsehood.

  Yes, you did.

  A few atheists here ruin the reputation of all atheists. A few atheists lump all believers as fundamentalists who are against science. Nothing is further from the truth. There are no references that Cofty uses, Well, I was already bullied in my life by the WT. He was not so rude and impossible in the past.

  Here is a perfect example of the falsehood you resorted to.

  I assume everyne here is a competent adult. Let Cofty worry abut Cofty. As a poli sci major, I know for a fact that is converting no one. No respect is shown for anyone with a divergent view. He strikes me as no intellect.

  You don't know that for a fact. Another falshood.

  Why flee the WT to have Cofty ruin your life? Resist! I did not say anything for the longest time.

  If words on a screen from someone you don't know on a forum you willingly visit that you recently said you were quitting are what is ruining your life, you have bigger issues that Cofty.

  In your opinion. You are not stating anything factual but your personal interpretation. I will not tolerate it.

  Isn't that just what you said, in YOUR opinion?

  My belief is none of your concern. I don't make crass and rude comments about atheists.

  Two sentences previous you called him a bully and said what he posts is hogwash, so, yeah, you do.

  Physician, heal thyself is the saying.

  So, you need your own advice since you violated it twice in your own post?

  I did not come here to have some idiot order what I can believe. No, no one appointed you my master.

  And no one is doing any of that. Please don't resort to falsehoods to justify doing the thing you just preached against while engaging on faux self-rightousness.

  All that was left to post that was acceptable was atheists, sex and fluff threads.

  Hyperbolic nonsense.

  Atheists DO care what you believe and do try and convert you to their way of thinking. They try and tear down your belief system just as much as true believers . They are both radical.

  So both belief and lack of belief are radical?

  In case anyone wonders why religions get mocked....

  A Republican candidate for South Caroline lieutenant governor wants to replace public schooling with church-run schools, but he admits it would be a difficult process that could take years.

  Ray Moore, a retired Army Reserves chaplain and president of Frontline Ministries, sketched out his plan for dismantling public education in the U.S. on Wednesday’s edition of The Janet Mefferd Show.

  He has encouraged Christian families to withdraw their children from public schools and educate them at home or enroll them in religious schools, and he believes the tipping point would occur at about 25 percent to 35 percent of the total K-12 population.

  I also noted that there are a number of Atheists on JWN, yourself and cofty included, who seem determined to point out to Theists the error of their ways and I see this as a form of Evangelical Atheism.

  What do you mean, "the error of their ways"? Are you suggesting that I have told people to not believe in God? If not, what do you mean by "error of their ways"?

  IF THERE WAS NO FIRST HUMAN.....

  by DATA-DOG in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  ...and new species of "humans" have appeared gradually, do we have "x-men" amoung us??

  so many people are willing to automatically discount abilities that cannot, as of yet, be explained by our current scientific knowledge.

  is it too frightening to entertain the idea that there are new and possibly better "humans" in our ranks?

  Humans have echolocation capability, why would I read up on it? If you dispute that, show me why.

  It' not that simple.

  Then show why not.

  What if you could train yourself to use echolocation

  Humans do that every day.

  If you could do all that without the drawbacks, like having autism, that would be amazing

  Autism does come with drawbacks, though.

  Since we cannot really set a limit on what a human is capable of, is it right to say that something is impossible?

  We can and yes it is.
