Believers!! Don't mislead people

Do you find the evidence to counter the above definition ?

No. . . in fact, they are more religious than the religious people, and they are criticizing religions more than the religious people. Smile

You and Depak Chopra should get together. You guys could bring down the internet with the amount of bullshit you generate.

Using fallacy doesn't prove that you are right, but only prove you don't know what you are talking about. It is a religion.

RE: Believers!! Don't mislead people
What would happen to society if everybody in Christendom actually practiced the teachings of Jesus?
What if everybody in the Buddhist world actually practiced the teachings of Siddharta Gautama?
And everybody in Hindustan practiced the teachings of Krishna & the Sages?
And everybody in the Sikh world practiced the teachings of the Guru Nanak Sahib?
And everybody in the Taoist world practiced the teachings of Lao Tzu?
And everybody in Islam practiced the teachings of the Quran?
And everybody in the Bahá’í Faith practiced the teachings of Bahá’u’lláh?
What would happen if everybody in “godless” liberalism actually practiced the teachings of Emma Goldman and Henry David Thoreau and Karl Marx and all their unknown heralds who were assasinated for social justice?

If everybody practiced these things, there is no religion.

This is the true atheism, and not those who are criticizing other religions 24/7.

These people are religious people, and don't practice what they say they believe.

They are hypocrites. Smile

There will be peace and harmony, respecting other people and doing the right things, regardless of people's background and traditions etc.

It is the core teachings of every religion. . .kindness, justice, peace and harmony.

The main issue is not about religion, but because there are "hypocrites" in every religion, including atheism.

They say they believe in one thing, but they lie and never practice their belief.

That might be the single most naive/dishonest thing I've ever heard anyone say.

Atheism is not a religion, love. We don't claim any universal beliefs.

Doesn't look like what you said. . all I see are sectarians criticizing other religions 24/7 and have no respect for other peoples' system of life and traditions. They don't even bother to correctly understand other people's religion and speak lies on the subject they don't even understand. It is sectarianism, and sectarianism is a religion. Off.
