Quote:1. How Did You Become an Atheist?
I sent away for a kit I saw advertised in the back of a magazine. What a stoopid fucking question.
Quote: 2. What happens when we die?
The people who love us are sad.
Quote: 3. What if you’re wrong? And there is a Heaven? And there is a HELL!
If your God is the unconditional love you lot keep blathering about, why should I care? If there IS a hell, how could your loving God possibly put anyone in it?
Quote: 4. Without God, where do you get your morality from?
I found this amazing on-line course called 'How To Not Be An Amoral Prick In 10 Easy Lessons'. Another stoopid fucking question.
Quote:5. If there is no God, can we do what we want? Are we free to murder and rape? While good deeds are unrewarded?
What does the existence of God have to do with freedom to commit crimes? Look round you, ya eedjit - you're part of a SOCIETY, with agreed-upon moral standards and set punishment for miscreants.
Quote: 6. If there is no god, how does your life have any meaning?
MY life has whatever meaning I assign to it. Which is really none of YOUR bloody business, because I'm not the drooling feckwit posting idiotic quizzes on line in some deluded hope that people who've never met me will come round to my way of thinking.
Quote: 7. Where did the universe come from?
France. The universe came from France. Don't believe me? Ask any Frenchman.
Quote: 8. What about miracles? What all the people who claim to have a connection with Jesus? What about those who claim to have seen saints or angels?
The operative word here is 'claim'. People can claim anything. I can claim to be King Of The Westward Turnips, that doesn't make it so. And the sincerity of a belief has nothing - fucking NOTHING - to do with whether or not that belief reflects reality.
Quote:9. What’s your view of Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris?
That all of them, on their worst day, are/were immeasurably smarter than the gobshite who came up with these questions.
Quote:10. If there is no God, then why does every society have a religion?
Every society has its own raft of myths and legends. Do you really think that M'mbo J'mbo is somehow a validation of the god of Abraham?
