Atheists: Time to Come Out of the Closet!

Who else could he possibly be talking about? It was a response to your Message 14.

Your life must really be shit!

I saw Percy respond to this and thought I would comment further. I think you are mistaken to think we (the atheists here) have refused to consider the possibility of a higher power. In reading what they have written here, for years, it is quite clear that every one of them has considered that possibility deeply. If any of you had any evidence we would look at it. At least the guys here would, because we're science nerds, we're curious about everything.In my experience religious folks, try to treat atheism like they think of other religions. They ignore that at its basic roots atheism is related to religion in the same way that NOT collecting stamps is a hobby. Now, sometimes atheists aggressively reject religions because of the atrocities perpetrated throughout human history because of religious differences, but I think of that as activism rather than atheism.Atheist often get fed up with being discriminated against in this society, and if you don't think there is discrimination, please explain why even candidates for U.S. President who are obviously NOT RELIIOUS, have to pretend to be religious to be elected.I have to disagree with Percy about the religious people here at EvC understanding atheism. Over in the Choosing a faith GDR must have gotten it wrong more than 100 times and he certainly isn't the only one. They do it repeatedly just like ICANT posts the same strawmen misrepresentations evolution every time he shows up here. Dredge and candle2 and all the rest do it It's always part of the Christian Bullshit.

"atheists see the same evidence of God as believers" Yep, and it is all obviously fictional. If there was evidence of god we would believe it, but we don't want assholes like you in our lives. Santa Claus. Believers accept the existence of god despite it being an obvious genocidal monster. I reject religion because I refuse to associate with evil assholes like you. Fuck you and your pedophile cult.

And all of them say the same thing. "I'm the best because I say so!"Your lack of self awareness is typical, but astonishing anyway.

You use this phrase often.Can you list some mindful natural processes and how we can tell the difference between mindless natural processes and mindful natural processes?

It's always seemed to me that if a god designed the animals on this planet it would have added the waste recycle system right into each, rather than have to deal with shit. Sewage is really nasty stinky stuff, why would god create shit and then have to turn around and design something to get rid if it.Shit doesn't make any sense from a creator's point of view.

Yep, that one is always in my top 5 list of stupid design!

Oh, bullshit, all they have to do is say "I believe, please forgive me."

You really are confused , aren't you?

Yep, he has some pretty bizarre views that seem to be primarily based on hate of everyone who thinks differently than him, so basically everyone.
