Good luck!!! ROFLOL

There is no way that you can battle the evils of Christianity, nor any other religion. I have 3 main points of why...
  • That would require Christians to read
  • That would require Christians to use logic and reasoning in their thinking and arguments
  • That would require Christians to understand what they are reading
  • That would require Christians to accept facts and evidence
  • That would require Christians to be truly compassionate
***this list was made using Christian logic 3=5***

Reading the bible (not just parts or what the preacher told me to read) helped free me of the religious doctrines of Christianity. I was able to see it for what it really was. God did not create man of his image, but man created God from his image. I'm a way more morally superior than the god from the bible. I'm peaceful, compassionate to those who are different, and don't judge or hate somebody because they believe in fairy tales. I must agree, to advance as a human species, we must rid it of religion. More people have died in the name of God/Allah/Jesus/Muhammad/Osiris AKA any religious super being than anything else in the history of this planet. You have already sentenced me to hell god, so why did you have to be in charge of genocide, guaranteeing these people of going strait there? If you are the all knowing, do we really have a choice to believe in you? My bad, took off my Christian logic....

Fr0d0. Stop laughing and get on your knees, open your mouth, stick out your tongue, and pray that I might be so kind as to touch it with my boot.

Oh goody,just what we need,ANOTHER angry atheist. Rather than telling us what you're AGAINST,perhaps tell us what you are FOR.


"Flawless logic' WOW! Can't wait to see THAT. I don't think we have another trained logician.


Just a tint niggle; wanting to tear down religion because [implicitly) the world will be a better place is neither rational nor logical. It's Utopian/magical thinking..


ME ?recovering Catholic for over 40 years. I think organised religion is parasitical and a carbuncle on the arse of humanity. I'm also confident that if religion disappeared overnight we humans would remain the same greedy,stupid,self destructive animals we have always been.You would probably notice a different set of justifications, but no difference whatsoever in the behaviour of our species. .

technically speaking, atheism isn't even really a thing.
Given that it's a rejection of religion, you'd be more accurate if you said that it was your life goal to eliminate religion from the world.

Short of tyranny or mind control, I don't see that happening.
Even if it was possible, I can't condone forcing people to accept my view of the world, even if they are deluded.

Humans can be rather stubborn fools.
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925

Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan

I personally don't deal with religious people all that much anymore, my goal is not to change them (it is almost an impossible mission), but the younger generation. I think logic, skepticism, and rational thinking should be introduce to children at young age so they wont be brainwashed and shut down the logic part of their brain lol.

So what you're saying is that you want children to be brainwashed by you. You should hang around more christians, you might find us logical, intelligent, fun loving people.

I realize what religions are. One, a crutch for the weak minded who don't want to think for themselves. Two, a system to siphon wealth from the masses. Three, a way to control people.

I told a christian friend this a few days ago, and I mean it 100%. If there is a christian god in this universe, I would rather burn in hell for eternity than serve him. I would be happy being a misfit in lucifer's army. I would pledge my everlasting will in his cause in every effort to usurp the unjust ruler of the world. The "god" I would worship, is a god that is beyond all that trivial stuff. My supreme being, would be loving to all. End of sentence. No hell. None of that. But let it be known, I would only convert to "satanic" upon being immersed in hell and seeing it for myself. I will live this life fully non-religious.

How can christians call "god" the purest form of love in the universe when I am capable of more love than he is? I didn't create a hell and create an unfair dice-roll(pick a religion, god!) for him to get sent there.

Christians can't even look at all the evidence that their religion is a carbon copy of dozens of religions before it that are all sun-worshipping religions. Seriously, go to youtube and check this video out. It's amazing. It's also, factual. Cross reference it.

Welcome gale, I'm ready give it your best shot, by the way why are you so mad at me you've never met me, because I love God does not give you a reason to be mad at me, I haven't tried to force who he is on you and will never preach to you, so why so mad.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.
