Claiming that all atheists believe in God and are mad at him is retarded but, to be fair, most atheists really are just mad at God and are 'revolting' against him because they don't like the idea of doing something bad and would rather pretend they are the pinaccle of virtue.

He's right though, most "atheists" are just mad at God. Because God says they shouldn't be a faggot, or some other kind of degenerate, and these people don't want to give up their selfish, hedonistic lifestyles and turn their lives over to Christ. Also notice how almost all atheists have major problems with Christianity but never with any other religions especially not Islam

>what's it going to take for atheists to understand they're being closed minded and rebelling?

Literally no one in my family is religious, and there was never a pressure from the rest of society. The fact that I've never strayed from atheism is the most conformist path I could've taken.

The problem with theists is they know they are wrong. And because of that they have to rationalize every single time they change their myth origins to fit reality.

Since they can no longer do that they just attack society to make people who don't agree with them to ignore the discrepancy.

You'd get arrested for trying to stone faggots to death. That's likely to cause issues with a man's life. Considering Christians also pride themselves on already thinking they know the answers to the issues of life and most people who convert aren't the brightest of the bunch you can bet that advanced technological progress would be driven to a halt or at the very least neglected for its perceived uselessness to a society that decides to make truths for itself rather than find the real ones. In that regard they are rather similar to liberals.

Retconned by Jesus in the new testament pal, also the secret is living without regrets because you know you are getting something great in the end, but one must also appreciate his life and use it to it's full extent to help others get on the path, so advances in technology and medical attention are always a good thing.

so in your little brain, atheists' "issue with religion" is based on their "wanting to do whatever they want"? How does that make sense?

Beliefs are based upon some type of internal decision making process. This is typically logic based, even if the logic is shitty. From here, there are even splits between how dogmatic people are about the beliefs that they hold.

So some people - when they test the likelihood of ancient religious texts accurately describing the universe, according to their own logic - don't find the likelihood to be very high

Christianity isn't representative of a lifestyle of enjoyment, certainly not in it's proper from, not whatever new age crap you follow. Being raised in a community of very starkly religious people has given me the experience of such practice, and it was hardly focused on the enjoyment of our current world. Nearly their entire life was focused on their very devotion to that same afterlife and repentance for an action they had never taken. They never had discussion on the things of this world that could be made better, just how one could assure a place in the afterlife. While this is anecdotal I have taken the liberty of explaining it because this is as close as I've seen to a by the book practice of the Bible. Considering the multiple denominations and subsequent sects of modern Christianity you could justifiably say whatever you damn well please about the religion and it could be true, but judging by the actual manuscript of the Bible itself, it is hardly concerned with the well being of the people on this earth.

It is cheap however to accept such on the authority of a collection of novella written nearly 3000 years ago. While they may be beneficial, they are based on a set of doctrines and epistemology that in it's base form a building block for the most evil of this world as well, such as the foundations of Communism and pessimism. One can logically come to the moral conclusions the Bible provides, and be much more fulfilled because of it. The one thing I value is Truth above all else, and in such a pursuit I am rather adverse to accepting the worldviews and cosmic beliefs of men who had not the capacity for discovery we had today, and of which frankly does not add up to a wholesome product. Christianity is very much a Gestalt of which one inputs their own thoughts to fill the gaps in the story.

That doesn't always work anon, for in the very doctrine of Christianity it dictates that there will be those who are destined to evil.

But God doesn't change his mind. Yet he does. And this makes sense to Christians. Jesus should have been made God Emperor of Earth , I agree , but I think he was just agreeing with the Jews so he didn't get killed before he could spread his message of love. And how do I have free will I God will torture me If I do what I want? Like practice pacifism , meditate , and help others? But I can be a killer and rapist as long as I seek forgiveness and say that Jesus is Lord? I do want a serious answer. And on that note , any Christians want to have a serious debate about Buddhism vs Christianity?

What does that actually mean? Because you could name a number of things that western civilization was "built on."

I think of atheism as a typical modifier, of course there's a legitimate minority who simply don't believe but the vast majority reached a premise for their decisions based off a moral conflict with the religion they grew up with, this is why you more often see American atheist who grew up religious going absolutely fedora tier while a lot of Europeans were just raised without religious influences and just don't care to learn.

Tips for the Atheists , study the bible if you want to disprove the christian cultists. Take this poster for example. Doesn't know that the parable about the stoning of the whore was invented and added to the text much later. The oldest copies do not include the story at all. Like 10% of the bible , it is manufactured bullshit. The rest is pretty legit though. But the Christian does not study his bible , does not even read it usually.

I don't believe atheists are "just mad at god". But I do believe that mankind is naturally religious in the sense that we can't understand everything perfectly rationally. Whether we call it religion or not, people inherently develop religious beliefs.

Take the modern atheists, for example. The vast majority of them are progressive faggots who worship their own assholes. SJWism is their doctrine. White guilt is their original sin. Environmental alarmism is their apocalyptic revelation. They just replaced one religion for another. It's just that one is far more cancerous than the other.
>>
>>133190454
First we should probably define what IT really is. It's just a religion (or collection of religions).

I contend that religions were essentially how ancient cultures defined, maintained, and spread themselves as well as enforced their norms.

They also served a secondary role of explaining the "un-explainable" whether that be natural phenomena (often through anthropomorphisations), the creation of the universe, or what happens when we die.

> I contend that religions were essentially how ancient cultures defined, maintained, and spread themselves as well as enforced their norms.
I don't think that we need to create something to do this. I think it is occurring naturally. Our culture is strong, widespread, seductive, and (especially today with the ease of communication) our norms are widely discussed and debated.

>They also served a secondary role of explaining the "un-explainable" whether that be natural phenomena (often through anthropomorphisations), the creation of the universe, or what happens when we die.
This aspect has just been replaced with science and logic. Instead of holding unshakable beliefs about the "unexplainable" we are constantly questioning, observing, and debating to build an increasingly more accurate understanding of the unexplainable.

But I guess some people need religion / christianity to make them feel safe when they are in a dangerous situation, or feel secure that they will have a place to go after they die. For stuff like that, we don't really have a replacement. There doesn't necessarily need to be a replacement in my opinion, but some people do I guess. Maybe a therapist or something would work.

actually, there have been books written arguing for 'atheistic morality' and attempts by even Dawkins and other clowns to explain away laws and the appearance of natural laws.

It's not Christianityâ„¢ specifically, but theism at the root of science and math. You have to first believe that reality is stable enough to test against. And drawing your attention back to the earlier point I made about 'atheistic morality' and laws, ALL of this gets explained through naturalistic processes which inevitably ends in denying free will. Which is why Dawkins, Shermer, Krauss, et al, all believe that reality is an illusion.

Don't you see how bizarre that is? To use science, a methodology that has no value unless reality is stable, to then say that reality is an illusion?

There is no basis for science in atheism. in fact, it shouldn't work. that it does work is in fact one of the finest and most delicious ironies for the fedora.

I understand that you are trying to say about the existence of thoughts not being able to be proven with physical evidence.

What I am saying to you is that YOU are saying that god cannot be proven with physical evidence. How the fuck do you know that? You do not and cannot know that.

I contend that there is no evidence of any god because there is no god at all. With no evidence of a god, there is no reason to believe in one.

You seem to contend that lack of evidence of a god means that there is a god that just cannot be proven to exist with physical evidence.

So why - with no evidence that christianity is anything more than an ancient mythology - should anyone believe it to be a description of reality?

Where did I say "Jesus invented science and math"? without theists, particularly Christians, there would be no science and math for you to use to then deny the philosophical requisites of science and math through the rejection of objectivity.

and I don't reject the OT like a lot of muppets on here; Jesus was not a hippie and the Bible has no inherent morality, it is composed of disparate and yet interconnected themes and rhetorical devices. There is very little to no exposition so its easy to misunderstand without historical context, like you have demonstrated in your ignorant post.

Buddhists do not believe in a god.
At the contrary, Buddhists hold that religious ideas and especially the god idea have their origins in fear.
The Buddha says:

Gripped by fear people go to sacred mountains, sacred groves, sacred trees and shrines.
Dp. 188

The Buddha taught us to try to understand our fears, to lessen our desires and to calmly and courageously accept the things we cannot change. He replaced fear, not with irrational belief but with rational understanding.

The concept of "God" is worth internal exploration, and Jesus seemed like a nice bloke, but you'd have to be thick as shit not to see gaping holes in his story.

Really, you're have to be a mouth breathing deranged moron to believe that God sent his son down to the Middle East for a few years, in an era with fuck all communication, and thought that would do the job.

Seriously, are you that gullible?

Revelation 6
15 And the kings of the earth, and the great men, and the rich men, and the chief captains, and the mighty men, and every bondman, and every free man, hid themselves in the dens and in the rocks of the mountains;
16 And said to the mountains and rocks, Fall on us, and hide us from the face of him that sitteth on the throne, and from the wrath of the Lamb:

Philippians 2:10-11
That at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of things in heaven, and things in earth, and things under the earth; And that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.

Revelation 5:13
And every creature which is in heaven, and on the earth, and under the earth, and such as are in the sea, and all that are in them, heard I saying, Blessing, and honour, and glory, and power, be unto him that sitteth upon the throne, and unto the Lamb for ever and ever.

Romans 14:11
For it is written, As I live, saith the Lord, every knee shall bow to me, and every tongue shall confess to God.

Revelation 1:7
Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen.

1 Peter 1:19-20
But with the precious blood of Christ, as of a lamb without blemish and without spot: Who verily was foreordained before the foundation of the world, but was manifest in these last times for you,

Hebrews 13:8
Jesus Christ the same yesterday, and to day, and for ever.

There is an important difference between Buddhist deities and mythological gods or goddesses. The latter are (or were once), considered real.
The deities of Buddhism are not considered real in the same sense, and are ultimately regarded as manifestations of Emptiness.

In Buddhism, the deities perform different types of functions for the practitioner. They may be a focus or aid to individual meditation and transformation, in which case they are called yidams.

Some practitioners eventually abandon deity devotion as a method for attaining an enlightened state when it has outlived its utility.

HH Dalai Lama said:
>"Of the various Buddhist meditational deities, the best is Buddha. If you like others, practice them; if you don’t, simply take Buddha."

Islam is from the devil who rose up 100 years after Jesus came, Christianity was already spreading giving everyone a fighting chance to go to Heaven. Why wouldhe need to do anything? Earth is Devil's domain if you read the Bible. We are here just for testing our faith before we move either to Hell or Heaven.

Why do sinners need to get a mark? They themselves know already they are being watched by God by deny it.
>>
>>133208335
incorrect.

greek democracy and liberal democracy are not equivalent. Its disingenuous to suggest they are the same.

liberal democracy is a parallel construction of a democratic system derrived from christian dogma. Its an internally consistent pragmatic construction.

So far as I understand there is no equivalent parallel construction in islamic philosophy that would justify liberal democracy via Islamic dogma.

I am totally open to reading anything you have that suggest otherwise.

Equality is not a good thing. It definitely is Christian dogma and it is dogmatic garbage.

Christianity has given rise to liberalism as it has given rise to the modem progressive movement. Christianity has justified natural laws as it has justified equality between all people - through illogic.

Maybe you can convince some American Republican how great those bullshit morals are but I don't accept that.

As far as I'm concerned, Christian societies took Democracy and sullied it with their religious garbage and now that religious garbage is infecting all of society because it makes the left feel good and follows in suit with right nonsense. Most people tend to just believe whatever morals currently exist are the true right morals for some reason.

I don't believe in god, but I do acknowledge the benefits of religion. It's really about the honor system and the sense of virtue what I like about religion, that little "force" in the back of human minds that separate them from animals. There has to be that "cosmic honor system", not only for the sake of having meaning with life, but also to maintain morals in order to make our lives little bit more tolerable.
Shit dawg, I don't know. I wish there was a "religion of not religion" that was about respecting nature and not being a murderous dick. Some kind of religion of "let's not nuke ourselves, let's explore space instead" religion.

Imagine aylamaos invading our solar system, and then humanity would team up against the aylamaos, united by the same feeling of duty and virtue. Like space knights. Not a hivemind, but people voluntarily acknowledging that peace is good.

because there is no objective morality.

>Equality is not a good thing. It definitely is Christian dogma and it is dogmatic garbage.

personally I have no problem with equality of opportunity, just not any attempt at engineering an equal outcome.

I am using the word liberal differently than you are. Liberalism is the philosophy codified in the declaration of independence and US bill of rights.

Modern neo-liberals and progressives, exist within a liberal system but their ideals are unjustified, immoral and unjustified by Liberalism. Its just made up jew spew.

They threaten the fabric of society by ignoring the morality that provides the stability and national structure we all take for granted.

"If within the city a man comes upon a maiden who is betrothed, and has relations with her, you shall bring them both out of the gate of the city and there stone them to death: the girl because she did not cry out for help though she was in the city, and the man because he violated his neighbors wife."

Religion is the autonomous and obstinate amalgamation of tradition and morality.

This is actually a perfect statement. Any time you want to do something on a grand scale, always start by thinking that everyone within the group is an absolute imbecile and you wont be wrong about at least 70 to 90% of the group.
With that being said if there really are atheists that are like that( such as those in pictures posted ITT ) they really are the lowest of the low. Yet they consider themselves intellectually enlightened or whatever. A man that claims he knows everything usually knows nothing.

One of my greatest red pills was learning that our genes use us and we are merely vessels to them, in fact most genes are inactive and completely useless. Google selfish genetic elements. This shit gets old though. I suppose religion is needed for most people because without they become nihilistic pussies who think nothing matters, . It's also true that many atheists are annoying autistic faggots. Just wish people could acknowledge we have very little understanding of what the fuck is going on.

Atheist here. Start a conversation about evolution with a fellow atheist. If they're unable to engage you or show comprehension, they're theists - people who *believe* rather than *understand*.
