Christians

[Retorth]

Those are the people that attack theists for their beliefs...hence the name "anti-theist".

For you to think of Atheists in such a way doesn't surprise me, given how you appear so hostile. I do not know where you got that idea but Atheists are simply people who disbelief in the idea of a supreme being. Atheists are not people who are "against" Christians. We are not against anything. We just refuse to believe in a supreme intergalactic being. Judging from the responses you have provided not only to myself, I wouldn't be surprised if you had bad experiences in the past. I hope this clears it up, however.

If there is no God, then there is no reason to exist. You have yet to offer up an explanation that explains why you exist.

I already told you, I do not require an imaginary being to make my life meaningful. It is really sad that you should require one so desperately otherwise viewing your life as worthless. That is how you see it, not me.

Well, technically I didn't say the quote that doesn't have a name attached, if that clarifies anything. I don't know where that quote came from. I guess you fabricated it, who knows.

I realized I mixed up the sentence while pasting one of yours, into mine. My apologies for that. You said the following:

Then I guess I'll have helped all those people for nothing (including myself).

This was what I was referring to.

Imagine if you and your mom were starving to death on a mountain top. No way to get down, no way you'd be rescued, a hopeless situation. What difference would it make if your mom killed herself to let you eat her (an act of self-sacrifice) so that you could live for a couple days more - in a world without God. You would live a couple days more off of your mothers flesh, but then you would die too. What good would her act have ultimately done, really? Seriously. No other human would know about it, and even if they did find out they would just cease to exist too. What difference would it make ultimately?
The good that I do, I do to please God, not man - whether God approves of me or not, I will try to please Him. And I don't know what "the goodness of your own heart" is supposed to mean.

Firstly, I certainly hope such a situation never occurs lol That would be extremely horrifying.

Anyway, what difference would it make, you say? Her act would have prolonged her son's life in hopes that I might find a way to survive. I am a product of hers and therefore she loved me enough to make the ultimate sacrifice, again in hopes that I might be able to survive.

She does not need another human being to know about it. It isn't about showcasing how beautiful you are. You do good out of your own heart. I am sorry that you need an audience to see any good you do. It only shows being self-centered.

When I say "the goodness of your own heart", I mean what it says exactly, doing it out of your own heart, and not for any other reason.

I would neglect myself, and I would waste away and die.

You have no idea how sad that sounds, seriously.

Are you delusional? Or that ignorant of the world in which you live?

God isn't helping in any way in this mad, screwed up world we live in today. He hasn't shown himself or shown infallible evidence to prove himself. How you can still believe he exists is beyond me. I think it isn't me who is the delusional one.
