Dear atheists,

RE: Dear atheists,
(April 25, 2015 at 8:52 pm)True Believer Wrote: You only want to mock and scoff. You have no peace. A person with a life doesn't spend time on atheist forums to puff up their ego in an attempt to blaspheme a god they don't believe in anyway.

I don't know about that.  I enjoy this forum a great deal.  I enjoy debate and I enjoy the company of like minded people.  And yes, it's kinda fun to poke fun at Christians from time to time.  You are easy targets mostly.  But I don't go to Christian sites to do it.  I wait for you to come here.


Quote:You're immature, and your life is meaningless according to your own beliefs. You believe you are nothing more than time, chance, and chemical reactions. You have no meaning and no hope, therefore, you seek out meaning by trying to feel as if you know something more than others, or that you have the canny ability to disprove an argument.

Oh my, I have no hope.  I didn't realize that until you said so.  *snort*


Quote:I pity you, simply because I've been where you are. I contemplated suicide when I was an atheist, because I simply couldn't escape the fact that deep down, I felt life was utterly cruel, meaningless, and empty. 

I'm sorry you contemplated suicide.  I'm also sorry you couldn't find meaning in yourself. What meaning exactly does Christianity provide?  Being made by a god, even if you are made my one, is not a purpose.


Quote:Atheists often scoff, "My life has meaning. I love my friends, spouse, kids, etc." That's a delusion. You are all nothing but chemical reactions. You'll die and quickly fade away from the mind of the world. You know this is true. Does that sit well with you?

It's scoffing to find meaning in your own life?  Really.  Well, if so I guess I am scoffing, because I do find meaning. 

And yeah, I away I'm going to die.  So are you.  Making up fairy-stories about an afterlife, won't change that any.



Quote:I believe in God. I'm not going to bore you with the details of my conversion, because your intent is clearly only to puff up yourself with pride (one of the worst sins), and to feel like a know-it-all. A wise man once said this: "A true Christian testimony is worth a library full of arguments."

Um?  Who came to gloat at who here?  Really.  You are here making an unhappy, ugly, nasty, sounding ass of yourself.  I don't visit Christian forums to tell them that they are idiots.  It would be nice. Angel


Quote:I know that when I found the truth, it changed my life. I know that I have peace. I know that I have meaning and a creator. I don't have to waste my time trying to mock others, create goofy avatars, or show my immaturity and pride. I've got a life, and I like to help others in my spare time to find the truth that I've discovered myself. 

Christianity make have changed your life.  But your post isn't a commericial for it.  It sounds like Christianty changed you from a mean spirited unhappy atheist, to mean spirited unhappy Christian.  

Quote:Does atheism liberate you? From what? From meaning? From purpose? Or liberate you to sin? For what? Does sin not bring about death? Does sin not cause misery and pain?

Sin is really not a possibility for me.  Sin is doing something god prohibits.  I don't think there is a god to prohibit anything.  But yes, doing things the hurt others, being selfish, not living up to responsibilities:  those things hurt.  If believing god causes them not to hurt, than beliving in god is dangerous.


Quote:Does atheism liberate you to think freely? Do you think Christians, before their conversion, didn't also think and ponder all religions and possibilities? If I find truth, what more is there to search? If I discover the answer to an equation, why keep working on it? It is solved.

Actually, I was never a believer.  But no, I don't think picking a religion would answer all life's questions.  It wouldn't actually answer any questions at all.  Beliving you have an answer is not the same as having one.


Quote:The mystery of this life is solved for me, and my daily walk with God proves it. I seek nothing more. I have peace. I have a life. I have purpose.

Sounds rather shallow, but OK, have fun with that.  
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.
