Atheism Kills Off the Ambition of the Lower Classes and Makes them Anti-Social

Atheism Kills Off the Ambition of the Lower Classes and Makes them Anti-Social
I believe much of the problems of the modern world is caused by atheism in the lower classes.

A person who believes in atheism is less motivated in life, less likely to start a family, less likely to try hard in his career, less likely to do what it takes to support a family and be a positive contribution to his community.

Also, atheism is a major contributor to such social issues as domestic abuse, child abuse, alcoholism, drug abuse, and crimes of moral turpitude.

Atheist marriages are less stable and more likely to break up when Christians, especially Catholics, will stick things through and make it work.

Atheism actually has no positive effect on society, and for that reason should be discouraged.

...those are all downright lies. I dare you to produce statistics to support any of those baseless assertions. Here are some counter-examples:

http://newscenter.berkeley.edu/2012/04/3...enerosity/ Atheism and generosity
http://atheismexposed.tripod.com/atheists_divorce.htm Atheism and marriage
http://www.samharris.org/site/full_text/...t-atheism1 general facts
You are either a liar, or dangerously ignorant about atheism.

Even if what you say is true, it's an appeal to consequence. We shouldn't shy away from the truth because of consequence it may hold.

But aside from that, you just asserted a lot of stuff without backing up of any evidence.

You've got to stop reading your own press releases. You've got it backwards. In fact, it is Christian contentment which kills ambition. "Meek inherit the world" and all that rot.

With atheism if you don't do it, it won't get done. We're the ones motivated to make this world and this life count. It's all we have. It's your lot that sees it as just passing through.

When you people produce some sort of evidence for all the crap you say about Christians, I may produce some evidence of what I say.

You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.

God has no place within these walls, just as facts have no place within organized religion.
-- Superintendent Chalmers

Science is like a blabbermouth who ruins a movie by telling you how it ends. There are some things we don't want to know. Important things.

Once something's been approved by the government, it's no longer immoral.

It's not a coincidence that Europe's declining influence in world affairs comes at the same time it loses faith in God.

Hell, Europe as we know it will no longer exist in 2050. By that year, the entire continent will be dominated by Islam.

Atheism is too weak and dispirited to fight back against the vigorous faith of the Muslim people.

The Europeans are a doomed race.

You don't have any evidence, do you?

For fuck's sake, Blackrook. You're either a complete and utter moron or you're a troll.

The true beauty of a self-inquiring sentient universe is lost on those who elect to walk the intellectually vacuous path of comfortable paranoid fantasies.
