Also, not every atheist is a part of this 'atheist community.' I'm an atheist and I'm not part of it. Sounds horrible - to have a group think and talk on your behalf.

No i don't think hipsters would put enough time in to studying religion to become atheists, i do notice most atheists are geeks, freaks and weirdos which are exactly the type of people i love anyway and i consider myself to be like that too.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them. Impersonation is treason. (March 9, 2013 at 4:06 am)Esquilax Wrote: Oh, and Drich? Come on, man.

You know Drich, for once I can fully agree with you!

Do you know who Karl Marx is? What sort of importance do those figures have to the atheist movement? When did I say it was 100%? Of course it is not 100%. It is probably 30-40 percent of the atheist movement is the left, the radical university professors, the left wing music and arts community. Maybe it is 60%. Don't you care that your culture is deeply shaped by political conflicts? Atheism is not the absence of belief, atheism is culture war. RE: hipster Atheist

Atheism is culture war, what the fuck? Is theism culture war too? God damn, you must be American - making everything into a war. And if you're not, come on over.

And if you're not, come on over. Yes, theism is definatley a culture war. But theism has thousands of years of experience with culture war. Atheists who are 18 years old or 25 do not. I think a lot of them are suckered into a political movement that they don't really understand, despite how many books by Richard Dawkins they feel they have read. Life is war, all societies have wars. I think America has too many of them. I am on this board to do spiritual warfare, I am not posting because I am interested in atheism. I am not anything in myself, but my ideas don't come from myself, they come from God. The same cannot be said about a 27 year old "ethicist" who creates his own "ethical system" that tells him how to live, and creates his own theology out of pure reason. That is a totally different thing. But there is culture war involved in that, it is not just the 27 year old, it is many different social and political movements that want to lead people different ways to suit their own ends. This is the way that the world works. To what you submit your mind to obey, to that thing you are its slave. |
