Do people hate the actual belief in God, or just the religious organizations?

[downbeatplumb]

Man, I thought I was a bad ass for enjoying my hatin' but you just raised the bar.

9/11 wasnt muslims

Was it aliens?

[Whateverist]

9/11 wasnt muslims

OK, a nutjob obviously. Good to know.

Don't laugh, he probably has one of those CIA dental implants giving him access to information we can only hallucinate of.

[Mr Greene]

I was ok with people believing whatever stupid thing they wanted. Then 9/11 showed me what a suitably motivated theist could do.

Thanks came in fairly late on this one. Brits had the IRA, UDF, dissolution of the monasteries, the interregnum...

makes me a nutjob...how?

Uh-oh, the tin-foil alert warning light just lit up on the control panel.

quick to judge arent we? 

Was it aliens?

close, it was austrAliens

similar events have happened many times in history, what makes us the exception?

[abaris]

quick to judge arent we? 

Not very quick, since it's been 15 years of nutjobbery surrounding 9/11.

No. We're as sure as we can be that it was, indeed, 19 Muslims. 15 years later, we're still sure.

So when you write "It wasn't Muslims", and don't even bother to support it, well, you're going to come across as a hatter. Sorry the humor didn't apparently soften the point, but meh.

Don't worry, you'll live.

[John V]

or both?

i see people say "religion ruins everything" so that would point to the organizations and scriptures

i also see people say "youre dumb if you believe in god"

so, what do people hate? or at least, what do people have the most issue with?

For most people, what they hate is being judged.

[GrandizerII]

That's a good one. But in case you're actually serious, also sad.

[...]so, what do people hate? or at least, what do people have the most issue with?

Stupidity. It always comes with any religious territory. Religion needs stupid people in order to survive, which is why it actively promotes ignorance and false models of reality. Maybe if religions and/or gods stopped choosing the most demented of morons as their spokesmen - people would have fewer problems with the whole thing. Of course - that's not going to happen, because smart people know, that religions are bullsh*t and that there is no reason to believe in any gods.

This is a bit extreme. There are so many intelligent people who are theists...

[goombah111]

No.  We're as sure as we can be that it was, indeed, 19 Muslims. 15 years later, we're still sure.

So when you write "It wasn't Muslims", and don't even bother to support it, well, you're going to come across as a hatter. 

i didnt support it because i didnt think anyone wanted to start such a discussion.

its just my opinion. based on some good evidence.

its okay to disagree, but theres good evidence to support it.
so calling those who believe it "nutjobs" is uncalled for.

i could easily support my case and could easily counter argue yours.
if you want to get into it, be my guest. ask me anything.
