Famous people that praised god and have died or will eventually die.

Every single one of them.

The list will go on and on and on anand on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on and on

The end result is that there is no god/gods ...... people will sicken and die whether or not they believe ............ ergo "belief/ faith" is irrelevant to living. Tongue

Nonbelievers murdering God's people, and you say we're barbaric.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Do you seriously want a comparison of "God's people" murdered for that belief by those who do not believe in a supernatural deity, and those who do not believe in a supernatural deity murdered by "God's people".

Really?

The "God's people" murdered by "God's other people" list is much larger.

God has murdered more of god's people than any one others, In fact god seem be intent on murdering every last one of god's people that has or will ever live. So non-believers are just helping god do his work.

How many christian martyrs were killed for preaching the "wrong kind" of christianity?

I've got 2 in my family, both killed because some protestants thought catholicism wasn't "pure" enough.
