Atheism is a religion
RE: Atheism is a religion
No, it is not. I'm hoping this thread will just die as there are about 100 more just like it with characters hauntingly similar to acke here. I'm about to leave off it myself, as I have a heap of work to do.

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

You possibly want me to believe God is some man in the sky so you can look for it and not find it. That is not what God is. Reality is everywhere always. It is your perceptions, your thoughts. It acts on all things that exist within it, which is everything. It is the reason the universe, multiple universes, life, time, space, a smile, heartbreak, murder, is possible.

No, keep him here as comic relief for as, as a edifying example and warning to those theists who come here who has not yet been fatally poisoned by faith, and a cring worthy embarassement even to most fatally stricken theists.

Reality: something that is neither derivative nor dependent but exists necessarily.

Merriam webster.

Do you believe reality exists?
If so, can you comprehend it?
If so, can you prove it's existence?

If not, doesn't it still nonetheless exist?

Yes, no one is arguing that, acke. How you go from there to "then, it is god." is what does not compute.

Is everything that exists a derivative of reality?

And isn't reality not derivative nor dependent on anything else?


As in, reality was not created by anything?
As in, reality just is?
As is, it is infallible, responsible for the creation of all, which nothing can oppose? By definition is it not both omnipotent and omnipresent?

Is amkerman talking of the god of spinoza?

http://www.waterwind.com/spinoza.html

If so, then he should change his beliefs tag to deist.

It certainly isnt the christian god he believes in.
