A Small Census

RE: A Small Census
(March 9, 2013 at 2:06 am)jstrodel Wrote: Atheism is a liberal/left wing movement.

No it isn't. Atheism is lack of belief in any gods, you don't need to be political to do that. Politically involved atheists come from all over the spectrum.

Quote:If you wanted to have a different question that I think would probably capture the political aspect of the atheist movement more, you could ask "How many people are to the left of Barack Obama".

As I said, not every atheist is into politics and not all here are American, so that question is a redundant one.


Quote: But there are also a lot of people who are very young, who are filled with left wing propaganda, and who use drugs. A whole lot of people. If you want to see one, go to a college campus.

This applies to people, not only atheists.

Quote:You attempt to caricature my accurate assessment of "the left" as "hippies who listen to psychedelic movement" is a deeply unscientific and methodological flawed approach.

Lighten up, it was just a small survey. Be free to make your own if you find this one lacking.

Quote:Consider the pornography question, regardless of how you word your atheist propaganda, they have pornography right on this forum.

Yes, and it's only visible to those who wish to enter. What's so bad about pornography and sex?

Quote:You will not see posts on Christian forums about whether it is safe to take ecstasy and what is the correct dose and way to do it, but you see them here.

Your point is? Our members are welcome to discuss any topic as long as it doesn't break any forum rules.

Quote:Your survey proves that you want to disprove Christianity more than you want to do real science.

What? How on earth was this survey a way to disprove christianity? And I think rexbeccarox is well aware that this isn't scientific, but a way to gather the opinion of those who frequent this forum.

Quote:I think if you don't care that political groups use sex and drugs and atheism to manipulate people, you are not a compassionate person.

Let me fix this quote for you: I think if you don't care that religious groups use brainwashing and scare tactics and faith to manipulate people, you are not a compassionate person.

Quote:Atheism is linked to a youthful rebellion and rejection of Christianity that typically happens in high school or college. It is ridiculous to try and place this on all atheists, of course there are many that do not fit into this category.

Wow, you make it really hard for me not to be sarcastic.. You do realize that during high school/college years, the brain develops and people start to get other points of views and influences than the ones they've got at home, so to have a change of heart either way isn't uncommon? You are fond of your generalizations, aren't you?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
