God is not Great
December 26, 2012 at 12:46 am
Hi all, new to these forums so sorry if i mess up the etiquette of this forum but i fucking hate religion, it is the most evil thing that mankind has embraced in 5 billion years of Earth existence. Religion has done nothing but pollute our world. Atheists are the most tolerant people for gays and women that i have ever met. Religion is both sexist and homophobic, just for a start. Wars have not been started in atheist causes, unlike religion.

Well, while I disagree with the fact that you are applying those characteristics to all religions, I do understand your sentiment, as the most prevalent religions tend to embrace those attributes. No, what you are saying isn't against forum etiquette. As long as you do not direct an attack at a person, you should be all set.

Welcome Craig

Your intro is a little more hostile than I might try, but hey, as long as you heed Shell B's advice you'll do fine.

Cheers.

A god is pretty irrelevant...its followers, however, pretty much suck.

Welcome to the forum, young padawan. Much hate, I sense in you. Of me, you remind myself, when I first deconverted. Reason, you will soon come to indulge. Big Grin

Preaching to the Choir, but yep yep and most certainly yep. OH and FYI you do know there is a book by the late Christopher Hitchens with the title "God Is Not Great"(How religion poisons everything).

Oh and welcome.

Howdy...

You seem to hate a bit too much for my liking. Methinks you need a joint.
