Quote:Do you know what Wanton is?Yes I know what it is. It still does not describe me.
This is an example of being wanton Wanton is head strong; reckless, stubbornness. Wantonness is a defining characteristic of malicious behavior.
If you wish to describe me correctly then you'll need to use these words -
Ethical: honourable, moral, upright, honest.
Rational: endowed with the faculty of reason: rational beings. Agreeable to reason; reasonable; sensible. Having or exercising reason, sound judgment, or good sense.
Logical: Reasoning in accordance with the principles of logic, as a person or the mind: logical thinking.
Quote:If the God of the bible is not the God of Heaven then I will welcome Hell.And if every religion was wrong? And that you'd simply cease to exist? Better way to go personally, but that's me.
Remember where religion came from. It came from the imagination of the minds of man. Man who is so easily blinded by his imagination and fear of the unknown. That alone should tell you to have considerable doubt over such crazy religious beliefs.
Quote:All of our days are numbered, will you laugh when you have no more days left?Yeah, I'd laugh when there are no more days. Because I've had a great ride so far.
As you can see I am willing to accept Hell if my beliefs are wrong. Can you say the same?
When it comes to religious beliefs in some kind of made up afterlife, I'll only accept the situation I'm in if it actually happens. Until then, it's ruled out as complete nonsense. I'm not concerned in the slightest. Why should I be?
After all, I haven't rejected god, I've rejected the claim. The claim which came from very religious men. I'm pretty sure with god being 'all knowing/wise' he'd understand. So what do I have to worry about?
Religion claims I'm a sinner and hell bound, haven't heard a thing from god. So what reason is there to concern myself over what YOU believe? Huh?

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
