Antitheism

[Excited Penguin]

I seriously doubt any adult atheist is not also an antitheist. They might not identify as such, but that's a whole different problem.

Haha You don't understand it, so it simpy CANNOT be! Something MUST be wrong!
Well, something's wrong all right, Bucko!

What? Narrow thinking
Where? In your brain
Why? Cause you can't admit to being wrong. You'll defend a bullshit, nothing position to the bitter end out of pride. 

You can't learn nothin' like that!

Aww, you're so cute.

I thought Anti-Theism was more along the lines of "I think theism does more harm than good. And if Theism were true, then it still wouldn't justify following it's rules."

Not anti theist or even anti-theism. I'm anti-shove-your-theism-in-my-damn-face-when-I'm-trying-to-make-some-damn-turtley-mayo-here...ism.

I'm anti-religion in the sense of being against what a lot of religious beliefs stand for, but I am not anti-religion in the sense of wanting to wipe it all off the face of the planet by force or indoctrination--that's not the irreligious way.

That definition is acceptable, but it only addresses some dimensions of it.

That's what being antitheism means, Evie. You just described yourself as as antitheist.

Yeah by some defintitions it means that.

I wouldn't call myself anti-theist in that sense because if God actually existed I doubt I'd have any say in the matter.

Luckily the evil cunt doesn't exist.

The antitheist who makes the claim that if God existed he would still not follow him assumes he would have that freedom, so your objection doesn't hold. He is saying he would if he could, not that he would if he couldn't, which you seem to be understanding here.

Luckily the evil cunt doesn't exist.

Ok, so let me get this straight. You're a strong atheist and an antitheist, just like myself, but only identify as an atheist? Interesting. Can you see how brainwashed you are?

Atheist-lacks a belief in god or gods.
Anti theist- does not like the bull shit that theists push down our throats.

Nope. Re-read my post. I'm not anti theist or even anti-theism... I'm only anti-shove-it-down-my-damn-throatism

And that applies to everyone, not just theists.

I'm a weak atheist and I'm not an anti-theist. So close but no cigar. Wait! What do I mean close but no cigar?! You got me 100% wrong!

Brainwashed? Me? Lol... by who? About what?
