What is the biggest thing that theist do that annoy you?

15. hates it when Christians influence public policy, supports atheist organizations that influence public policy: Starting to see a trend here..

Religion should have nothing to do with civil society. Religious belief is a private matter, it should not get involved with anything to do with the military or civil services.
Besides, it's not an atheist organisation, it's a secular one. There is a slight difference.

16. doesn't think children should be raised with religion, indoctrinates their own children: pot, meet kettle.

Children should be given the freedom to think for themselves. I believe in a secular up bringing, that way they can decide for themselves whether religion is rational or complete bollocks.

You are a arrogant, ignorant Christian nut job.

I knew one of you was going to try to debunk my entire list.

When retards go around threatening people with eternal damnation and endless punishment in hell, you'll find yourself with many foes.

You just missed the point. I understand that you want to lash out at Christians, but if you want to claim Christians behave badly and act the same way, that makes you a hypocrite.

Many atheists were once Christian. Some were strong believers, so yeah, many atheists would indeed know more seeing as they are no longer afraid to read the whole bible as it's written.

I've rarely met an atheist who even understood the most basic concepts of redemptive history. What they excel at is missing the point.

Aren't they the same thing? Lack of belief - don't believe?

No. To lack belief is to claim you have no position. Not believing is a position.

You can easily believe in fairytale stories and take peoples word for it but many others are not so easily lead. Personal feelings and thoughts are often unreliable. This is why we use science, and verifiable evidence.

Anyone can know Jesus personally, it is just their willingness to seek Him out. It is a truth anyone can verify for themselves directly.

I'm not absolutely sure about anything.

You seem pretty sure of yourself to me.

Science is a method not a religion. It isn't belief based, it's based on evidence.

I suggest you read about natural philosophy, and empiricism, if you believe the workings of science is based solely on evidence. What it is truly based on is a series of unprovable assumptions that produce "data" by testing and observation, which is then interpreted; what that is or what it means depends on the philosophical underpinnings of your worldview.

The information is out there and within reach to all. The question is: Are you willing to listen and learn? I don't think you are, you hold to your religious beliefs too strongly.

I turn this back around on you and challenge you to prove any of those things using scientific evidence.

There is no reason to assume a god did anything if a god has not been demonstrated to exist. A does not prove B if you haven't first proved A.
We should always stick to the obvious and never assume without reason and evidence. We don't know how all this got here, and we'd be fools to think otherwise.

You don't know how all of this got here, it doesn't mean no one else does. This is the point, that if you don't know, then don't presume to say what did or didn't happen.

Thank you for demonstrating your level of ignorance.

Feel free to correct me.

There's never been an 'atheistic regime'. Can't see how you can kill in the name of disbelief. But kill in the name of 'god'? Well history is loaded with that.

There have been several, all with the expressed goal of killing off religion. Death toll from such regimes is at least 100 million.

Sin is just a concept. If you don't believe in sin, how will it affect you and your judgement on anything?

People know what sin is; they have a conscience. It isn't just a concept, it is based on moral absolutes. Those absolutes run our society and civilization, and people know when they are crossing the line. What I am saying is that people will resist giving intellectual assent to anything which curtails their passions.

Last I checked, this is an atheist forum. Besides, just because we make good points don't mean we're preaching. We're simply defending our position, or speaking out to absurdities.

This is not specifically against people here but all atheists, and I have seen many an atheist state that a continual goal is to break someones faith and convert them to atheism.

Religion should have nothing to do with civil society. Religious belief is a private matter, it should not get involved with anything to do with the military or civil services.
Besides, it's not an atheist organisation, it's a secular one. There is a slight difference.

I'm sure you support all of the lawsuits that atheists file. And that's your opinion. We have a civil society because of religion, not in spite of it. Perhaps you haven't noticed but America (and England) was founded on judeo-christian values. Ever since America has started to turn from those values, since the 1960s, there has been a measurable moral decay which is accelerating at a frightening rate.

Children should be given the freedom to think for themselves. I believe in a secular up bringing, that way they can decide for themselves whether religion is rational or complete bollocks.

Children should be taught the truth, and what their parents believe about the world is what they're going to learn, whether you are secular or religious.

You are a arrogant, ignorant Christian nut job.

I love you too.
