Great news for everyone

Hey guys and gals, I've got some fantastic news that you'll really want to know about.

I'll be checking your sources, of course.

Did you know that Jesus loves you?

As much as a fictional character from a poorly written book can.

Yeah, it's true. He really does love you personally and all he wants from you in return is for you to love him more than anything or anyone else in this world. That's it. Pretty cool huh?

No. Not cool. I would never love Jesus... not even a little, because Jesus isn't even the most interesting fictional character out there. I love Batman. Batman is worthy of my love because he's got cool gadgets, and what I imagine to be a big penis.

All kidding aside, I would never ever love a fictional character from any book more than I love the real people in my life. What kind of brainwashed, ignorant moron would do that? Disgusting!

But that's not all. Because you love him that means that when you die you will be resurrected to spend the rest of eternity in paradise where you can carry on worshipping him and loving him for ever. Isn't that fantastic?

I'd rather just cease to exist, or go to hell and burn with my brothers, thank you. Why would I want to go to a place that's supposedly paradise, yet filled with all sorts of the same mindless sheep I avoided in life. And for eternity? Get fucking real. Send me where these awesome people are going, please:

I know atheists are only the way they are because they hate God, have given in to the temptation of the flesh and evils of science and are spiritually lost.

Science is evil? Go fuck yourself. You're communicating all of this heinously arrogant and stupid bullshit with us right now through the grace of science. Remember science is evil when you have a potentially fatal disease, and aren't ready to go to your paradise yet. Fool!!!

I used to be the same as you until just a few days ago but now I have been saved and I'm so happy that I just want to share that happiness with my fellow humans.

Did your god tell you to lie too? No way you were ever like the atheists here, buddy. Don't feed us your bullshit.

But now I'm so much better than you because I've been born again into the truth of divine love and knowledge. But you can be as good as me if you want. Brilliant isn't it?

Nope. Stupid. There is not a shred of truth to anything having to do with your shitty religion. I was born okay the first time, thank you.

Just study your bible and you'll find Jesus there waiting for you.

Bless you.

I have studied the bible. It made me absolutely sick. Have you studied the bible? And you didn't get sick? What kind of amoral asshole are you, anyway?

You're either a liar, or have a severely damaged moral compass. It's that simple.

I don't understand why you are so angry. All I'm doing is giving you the great news that I have heard. If you don't want to listen then that's up to you but please don't be rude as it offends me.

Thank you and God bless.

Of course you don't so now you are trolling?? Please go away. Your "News" is 2000 years out of date.

My priest says that I should be persistant as atheists are just afriad of the truth but even if I save one soul from punishment it's all worth it. And my news is just as brilliant today as it was all that time ago. Just give it a chance.

What's trolling mean?

God bless

The idea that God is an oversized white male with a flowing beard who sits in the sky and tallies the fall of every sparrow is ludicrous. But if by God one means the set of physical laws that govern the universe, then clearly there is such a God. This God is emotionally unsatisfying... it does not make much sense to pray to the law of gravity.

You can't convince a believer of anything; for their belief is not based on evidence, it's based on a deep seated need to believe.

If we long to believe that the stars rise and set for us, that we are the reason there is a Universe, does science do us a disservice in deflating our conceits?....For me, it is far better to grasp the Universe as it really is than to persist in delusion, however satisfying and reassuring.

I would love to believe that when I die I will live again, that some thinking, feeling, remembering part of me will continue. But as much as I want to believe that, and despite the ancient and worldwide cultural traditions that assert an afterlife, I know of nothing to suggest that it is more than wishful thinking.

Think of how many religions attempt to validate themselves with prophecy. Think of how many people rely on these prophecies, however vague, however unfulfilled, to support or prop up their beliefs. Yet has there ever been a religion with the prophetic accuracy and reliability of science? ... No other human institution comes close.

Contrary to the fantasies of the fundamentalists, there was no deathbed conversion, no last minute refuge taken in a comforting vision of a heaven or an afterlife. For Carl, what mattered most was what was true, not merely what would make us feel better. Even at this moment when anyone would be forgiven for turning away from the reality of our situation, Carl was unflinching. As we looked deeply into each other's eyes, it was with a shared conviction that our wondrous life together was ending forever.

Dream on.

This guy is an obvious troll. Either that, or he's an idiot who doesn't deserve to live anywhere other than a cave. (You know, because he bashes science, and science=everything that modern humans enjoy on a daily basis.)

It really is just that simple.

[Minimalist]

I vote idiot.

Trolls tend to be more clever.

Why would atheists be afraid of the truth? I'd actually prefer if there was a god who could set me up with a sweet afterlife. EVERYONE would like to live in eternal bliss forever. But the sad fact is that you don't have any proof, and until you do, you're not going to convert anyone intelligent.

[popeyespappy]

don't be rude as it offends me.

lol @ the fucktard that comes to an atheist internet forum and thinks anyone gives a shit if it gets offended.

[Aegrus]

It's Christians who are afraid of the truth; you're afraid of losing your afterlife.

Atheists have nothing to be afraid of, because if god somehow turned out to be real, we'd all just convert, repent, and go to heaven.

[KichigaiNeko]

vote goes for idiot

[Shell B]

Okay, guys. Saved is new here. Chit-chats were had. He will post an intro soon and knows now not to preach.

Saved, if you are here to "save" people, give up now. We'll spot you and boot your ass fast. Stop pissing people off and just participate on a level without expectation.
