If we had everything we wanted we would be useless and lazy and even more fucked than we are now.
Praying for things to get better in your personal situation is selfish and wrong. By asking for only direction in life and guidance, or for things like patience, and understanding should be about as selfish as it should get.
Modern conveniences-
If everyone was United under God there would be faster advancement in technology due to the lack of a worldwide religious barrier.
Stable societal constructs.- are you serious? Society is completely fragmented, and different through the world and way fucked up. The opposite of stable.
Modern day society- again completely off beat from nature and teaching our young how to live without meaning, and in blatent indifference to natural wrongs.
No, please keep going.
Take a good long read through your bible, because god of the bible really doesn't care much for humans at all.
He only cares for such a small percentage of them I.E. his chosen ones. Also and even still when you get to the letters
regarding Paul it is pointed out again only a small percentage of people are going to heaven.
Trust me we have a decently stable society construct in this day and age, if you want to go further into it look at the middle east look at radicalized people do for "god". All in all that type of radical behavior and even in Africa with the christian terrorists LRA group. Everyone is quick to say fuck ISIS and anyone associated with them but here are the facts there is christian terrorist groups here is a about 6 of them. (http://www.salon.com/2015/04/07/6_modern...s_partner/) so when i say we have stable social constructs we do but religion and its radicalized followers tend to destabilize it.
No i'm pretty much right about that, look at the middle east and look at history, when religion didn't play a huge role things actually advanced and areas like science flourished and things were great until religion came along and stopped that progression. Then as far as laws go and if god existed most things in the bible are punishable by death and think about it would you really want to stone your own child to death for talking back? Even better would you as a person have the ability to kill another human being for being gay, blaspheming god, taking gods name in vein, being a atheist, etc. The thing is we wouldn't really have a modern day society we would be barbaric and that is not good for anyone. think of the middle east and then having a god that actually does exist again we wouldn't.
Since when do dog's go to heaven i'm pretty sure the bible doesn't say anything about animals having souls.
Atheism is a non-prophet organization join today.
