New Atheism movement is using ATS as a mouthpiece

reply to post by uwascallywabbit



Inflamatory.

Nice try.

I'm not a sucker. Go pick on someone else

a like minded fellow...

we are only allowed to enjoy ethanol because GOD

in his wisdom

created us after the pattern of HIMSELF

and he gets blotto whenever he wants BECAUSE HE HAS NO BOSS

but seriously one of the funniest things about christain stereotypes is their communities fear of fleshly pleasures despite claiming a divine creation, and in particular, a creation IN GODS OWN IMAGE

but the religious community has never been known for logic or reason.

asking you to prove your ideas is the same as picking on you?

Hold on in one post you say we are godless HEATHENS then try and tell us atheism and Nihilism are the same thing.
You are just wrong....atheists may be godless but are not heathens that is name calling fella.
You really are not doing you cause any favors by saying we are heathens that implies we are uncivilized and barbaric...we are not.

and that's wrong because.... atheists use ATS as a religious dart board? makes sense right?......

hypocrite much?

reply to post by HIWATT


No we discuss things and question things, that is what this board is about. If you do not like others questioning your and other faiths goto a Religious site.

Inflammatory? Hypocrite? hold on you have done both these things in your past few posts.

deny ignorance

or stick with the jesus crowd

whatever

but dont expect GROWN-UPS to listen to you if you cant BACK IT UP.

whats the problem here? put up or shut up or at least GO AWAY. im sure there are a ton of PRO IGNORANCE forums where nobody will challenge your UNPROVED ASSERTION.

hey boymonkey74, is this what you would consider "name calling"... ?

BTW uwascallywabbit, you assume I'm "religious". I'm not.

Therefore I have no reason to prove anything to you. I will however put forth that there is no "scientific evidence" of any deity. The "evidence" for believers is found within the construct of faith.

That does not constitute evidence to an atheist, I understand that. It also does not DISPROVE the existance of such.

If you have "evidence" of Gods non-existence... would you care to share that with us.... or does your BELIEF in his non-existence simply rely on FAITH in such.

I AM on a religious site! There are Atheists here right ???

Hiwatt:

The evidence of God's non-existence lays in the empirical absence of His presence. If we are to allow that we are all reasonable thinking people, we must take such absence as logically predicating God's non-existence. To form an alternative thought to this would show the absurdity of one's thinking, and the dishonesty of one's reason.

Addition to my last reply: lambs for lions started this thread as a topic discussing the prevalence of atheism on ATS. He is not a supporter of atheism and has stated for the record he is a christian.

So as far as me (or him, or anyone else who doesn't share your opinion) "shutting up and going away" ... maybe it is YOU who needs to do so as this thread clearly wasn't created to foster support for your cause.

It's like you walking into a church and saying "what the hell are you all doing here? I came here to watch porn on my ipod and you're all looking at me like I'm an idiot!"

hmmm.......

Pay attention to that edit everyone.

This coming from someone who "denies ignorance"

yeah sure...

reply to post by elysiumfire



ouch that was too close to the truth, you will get no play from the otherside my brother..

in a recent post (just 2 or three above) you will find that problem poster seriously saying "what i say cannot be proven, but deal with it (my paraphrase)"

if we give any credence to this nonsense then we need to turn in our grade school diplomas.

from his own mouth it cannot, will not be proven

game over

reply to post by HIWATT


knowledge of my diet equates to ignorance?

i think that you need to put down your shovel before you make your hole deeper pal

and if I got out argued by a stoned bacardi drunk on the internet Id have the good taste to tuck my tail between my legs and GO TO BED

and maybe even READ A BOOK when i woke up

note that that book must NOT be the king james translation

Dear HIWATT,

It's like you walking into a church and saying "what the hell are you all doing here? I came here to watch porn on my ipod and you're all looking at me like I'm an idiot!"

That just may be the most pithy analogy I have read on this site. Peace.

Have any of you heard of The Prophecy of the Popes? In summary, a Saint Malachy predicted there would be 112 popes before the Great Tribulation and used phrases to describe each one. We are on Pope 111. I personally think the most recent predictions for popes have been remarkably accurate. Almost as if if the Cardinals are trying to fulfill the prophecy. Soon we will find out if the prophecy is true; a time I am not looking forward to due to either outcome.

cheers

ps. and I came up with that without the help of drugs or alcohol or cigarettes.

The new atheist movement is a reaction to the dangerous brand of religious fundamentalism that has taken root in the united states. They should be considered patriots, not provocateurs....Try to see the bigger picture. What kind of country will America be in 10, 20 or 30 years if this anti scientific biblical literalism is allowed to spread unchecked?

Dear Bluesma,

LOL, that is exactly what I do, I preach to Christians and tell them not to be jerks and to not force their beliefs on anyone. I will tell you the truth, I am not an Evangelical and everyone should be free to believe whatever they want. We all should have the opportunity to state our beliefs and then defend them, they are what they are. I actually care less about Atheistic beliefs than I do about bad theology by christians. I have corresponded with you before and have plenty of threads and posts that others, can and have, reviewed. Please review and show me where I have done what you say should not be done.

I didn't say you do(have done) that- on the contrary, I acknowledged people like you who don't.
I reminded you that there are Christians that are different than you, and those are the ones the aggressive atheists are fighting against. They reinforce each other.

Do you do as you recommend and correct the few hateful Atheists, I correct those who say they are christian.

I do. On this site, you can find me doing so in most of the atheism vs. theism threads.
Though I don't consider it "correcting" I just consider it pointing out hypocrisy, bringing it to light- what they do with that is their business, at least then they are aware that they are largely responsible for their experiences. Just like most fanatic theists, they like this holy war they wage, so that isn't enough to make them change. But if they ever tire of it, they can. They know they have the power.
