Atheist Church of the evolving Human God.

RE: Atheist Church of the evolving Human God.
It seems that you do not understand what atheism actually is... not even a tiny bit.

The issue has nothing to do with understanding it one way or another.

It has to do with making it last for the long haul.

That is why I don't think you understand.

I don't care how long people are atheists for. My atheism has nothing to do with other people and it has nothing to do with any other part of my life. I don't care if other people are atheists, that has nothing to do with me and my lack of belief. It isn't something that requires a so-called "movement".

Then leave those you care about out in the cold of religious ignorance to appease their hivish natures.

Nice social consience when all you think of is yourself

You really aren't getting this... you are posting the same bollocks over at TTA and have had plenty of opposition. I'll continue it over there.

Atheist friends, should you elect a God and sacrifice to him or her?

By doing so, you would be acknowledging that mankind is the greatest force in the universe by symbolically taking the name of Human God and insuring that there is always a church that preaches the truth of what is known as a certainty of the supernatural God. That he probably does not exist and is a man-made mythical ideal perpetuated by the Noble Lie.

If you believe what the research indicates in terms of hive behavior, then you might wonder as I do if it would not be in the best interest of the atheist movement to elect an atheist God and sacrifice to him or her?

This, if the research is true, would insure the longevity and cohesion of the atheist movement and give it power.

You may have some suggestion for the title that you would put on your leader and church. I do not except for my choice in the title above. Not being a full atheist, I would not have a vote on it; even as I support atheists and non-supernatural spirituality in people over supernatural religious notions and beliefs. I would also suggest a mantra for this church; that being, --- Faith without Facts is for Fools.

I believe in a strongly assertive type of atheism that preaches that truth is the highest principle. This preaching should be done with eloquence and good form and language; recognizing the trap of logical fallacies and the impossibility of atheists proving that there is no creator God; as well as the impossibility of believers to prove that there is a creator God.

Unfortunately I cannot call myself an atheist anymore because of having suffered an apotheosis. As an esoteric ecumenist and Gnostic Christian, you will know that I think that creating an atheist church should be the next evolutionary step for the atheist movement. I believe the research shown above to be true and fear that without a church, atheism will not be affective and perhaps die out without it.

Creating an atheist church would be the ideal for both religionists and atheists. It would insure that atheists are always here to correct the imaginary thinking of those who believe in a mythical supernatural God. This would be a benevolent and altruistic expression of atheist’s social conscience and desire to bring all people to sane thinking. This atheist church would recognize the human attribute shown in the following clip and gently try to help those adults whose thinking is hampered by it.

Atheists seem to already want to do more for society towards this end as they seem to be over-represented in religious forums even as statistics say that the atheist in the U. S. and Canada are only at about 5% of the population. This is a sacrifice for atheists that already adds some cohesion and longevity to the organization and appeases the hive nature that we seem to have. But I do not think it is enough based on the research shown above.

Should atheist elect themselves a Pope or God or someone with some other title and do whatever sacrifice is demanded of them to keep the movement alive for the long run?

This is one of the more sophisticated concepts that I don't expect most "junior" atheists to understand.

Social influence and political influence necessitates some flexibility. Often, to attain a position of power you have to concede and compromise until you get to the top.

In that vein, your post is very thought-provoking. I'm intrigued by the notion of an atheist church.
