1001 things that show you're an atheist noob!

I know -- why point to a single line when you have whole passages describing morally indefensible behavior in detail? It's easier to let the text make the case for it being evil than onesie-twosie sentences. Slave to the Patriarchy no more
When you're only 2 years old.

Quote:Why can't seculaists claim that, because on cheery picked passages, god appear not to be what is claimed by christians, therefore no god? Because cherry picking is intellectually dishonest and a logical fallacy. Quote:Cherry picking, suppressing evidence, or the fallacy of incomplete evidence is the act of pointing to individual cases or data that seem to confirm a particular position, while ignoring a significant portion of related cases or data that may contradict that position. It is a kind of fallacy of selective attention, the most common example of which is the confirmation bias. Cherry picking may be committed unintentionally.[1] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cherry_pick...fallacy%29 To justify dishonest behaviour because the otther side does the same thing is another logical fallacy,called 'tu quoque' or appeal to hypocrisy' Quote:Tu quoque (play /tuːˈkwoʊkwiː/),[1] (Latin for "you, too" or "you, also") or the appeal to hypocrisy, is a logical fallacy that attempts to discredit the opponent's position by asserting the opponent's failure to act consistently in accordance with that position; it attempts to show that a criticism or objection applies equally to the person making it. This dismisses someone's point of view based on criticism of the person's inconsistency, and not the position presented.[2] Thus, it is a form of the ad hominem argument.[3] http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tuquoque

"Religion is comparable to Childhood neurosis" Sigmond Freud
"If one wishes to form a true estimate of the full grandeur of religion, one must keep in mind what it undertakes to do for men. It gives them information about the source and origin of the universe, it assures them of protection and final happiness amid the changing vicissitudes of life, and it guides their thoughts and motions by means of precepts which are backed by the whole force of its authority." SIGMUND FREUD, New Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis "Religion is an illusion and it derives its strength from the fact that it falls in with our instinctual desires." SIGMUND FREUD, New Introductory Lectures on Psychoanalysis "Frisbeetarianism is the belief that when you die, your soul goes up on the roof and gets stuck." George Carlin "The Bible and the Church have been the greatest stumbling blocks in the way of women's emancipation." Elizabeth Cady Stanton - American Suffragist (1815-1902) "Who loves kitty" Robin Williams live on Broadway DVD "You cannot petition the lord with prayer" Jim Morrison The Soft Parade.
