Atheist superheroes?

[Fidel_Castronaut]

Oh, I know. Your very narrow and specific version of someone else's version of another version of a 'god' created it and told you, directly, that it's right and that you should convert everyone else to believe the same thing so everyone can have a party in the sky forever and forever and the baddy can't win.

There is either a single purpose giving eternal source of all things that exist or purposeless eternally existing mater energy exists and by chance some of it will form planets, stars and life without a plan, intention or purpose. One or the other. If you think the latter scenario is the truth of the situation then you can believe that, you're very wrong of course but there you go.

I love you and the nonsense you talk. It's really rather funny that you either don't see or don't get the absurdity of the position you hold.

Imagine it, and it can be true! But really, we are all taking every un-supported biased claim you make very seriously. Because you are most certainly a logical, reasonable person and are in no way totally insane. We're all proud that you have voices in your head telling you to burn things. Just, don't come too close to anyone, ok?

Not digging this whole Atheist superhero thing. Theism vs Atheism for an entire comic series... no thank you, this forum is enough.

This seems interesting to say the least, the concept seems... off.

It works for fiction I suppose and I'll probably end up reading it anyway.

Now there's a strange concept... atheists fighting the very things which they do not believe exist in the first place...
Bzzzttt..... Does not..... comp... pute.... baaaarrrrrrghghgh

From what I've read, it seems as though the creatures themselves do exist, but instead of literally being angels and demons and whatnot, they're extradimensional beings capitalizing on the mistaken assumptions of the faithful in order to accomplish their goals.

It's a kind of cosmic con-job they're fighting, rather than something as nonsensical as it initially sounds.

Ripping off Stargate?

Or: multiple creative intelligences working together. Multiple creative intelligences working against one another, each creating separate quadrants of the universe in some kind of conflict. A being from within the universe travelling back in time and setting the initial conditions of the universe with a view of ensuring his own existence. An initial natural spark later worked upon by a directing intelligence. An initial creative spark abandoned by the creator. A mirror universe working in reverse of a blueprint universe via natural means as a result of some natural work of physics. etc etc.

Scientology's theology. With Elron Hubbard as the heroic man who will eventually free us all. No! I'm NOT joking.
