Christianity compatible with atheism

[Oldandeasilyconfused]

So in your view, there is no middle ground. We are merely two sides, locked forever in a violent conflict, our blood fated to overflow the streets. That's certainly one way of seeing it

Pardon?

That is not what I said or implied, any conflict I feel is ideological and philosophical, not violent


My view is that religion will eventually become irrelevant to all but a tint minority and fade away.That this process is well under way.That there is no need for violent conflict.

That there MUST always be conflict as the major agent of significant change is a major- minority view, called 'Conflict Theory'.

As for Christian moral teachings: I reject the notion of universal,absolute moral imperatives,and have no respect for dogmatism. In practice,Judeo-Christian morality is often the antithesis of its claimed values,being closed minded,dogmatic and arrogant,with a large dollop of schadenfreude..

PLUS Christianity contains no new or superior moral teachings. All can be found the Zoroastrianism, Greek philosophy, Judaism, ancient Egypt,Hinduism and Buddhism -I do admire the atheistic Buddhist moral code and find it superior to that of Christianity..

Conflict theories are perspectives in social science which emphasize the social, political or material inequality of a social group, which critique the broad socio-political system, or which otherwise detract from structural functionalism and ideological conservativism. Conflict theories draw attention to power differentials, such as class conflict, and generally contrast historically dominant ideologies.
Certain conflict theories set out to highlight the ideological aspects inherent in traditional thought. Whilst many of these perspectives hold parallels, conflict theory does not refer to a unified school of thought, and should not be confused with, for instance, peace and conflict studies, or any other specific theory of social conflict
