10 Questions for Every Atheist
#21
RE: 10 Questions for Every Atheist
I like how if you try to turn these questions around they can't give a rational answer with backed up evidence! E.G. If there is no god have you been acting under a false morality? In which case have you wasted your life acting differently then you naturally are? How has this affected your true personality?

Thanks *blushes*
If there is a god, I want to believe that there is a god.  If there is not a god, I want to believe that there is no god.

This is literally the ENTIRE post:

Quote:Some Questions Atheist Cannot Truly and Honestly REALLY Answer! Which leads to some interesting conclusions…

1. How Did You Become an Atheist?
mm. Because there is no GOD??
2. What happens when we die?
as any organic living being we perish to earth. Become organic matter in soil
3. What if you’re wrong? And there is a Heaven? And there is a HELL!
Well i would be really happy if i could live in heaven. Since i dont have my previous holiday in heaven so i doubt that there is heaven.
4. Without God, where do you get your morality from?
My knowledge, wisdom. My ability to distinguish right from wrong. And you humor me because you need someone else to obtain that.

5. If there is no God, can we do what we want? Are we free to murder and rape? While good deeds are unrewarded?
Nope, thats why cops comes instead of GOD.
6. If there is no god, how does your life have any meaning?
I dont understand this question. I want to enjoy my life and help other people however possible.
7. Where did the universe come from?
This is only the question where we atheist cant give you a answer but yet neither can you guys.
8. What about miracles? What all the people who claim to have a connection with Jesus? What about those who claim to have seen saints or angels? Mental

9. What’s your view of Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris?
I dont know these guys.
10. If there is no God, then why does every society have a religion?
Its was like government in the past.
Apparently, none of us can "Truly and Honestly REALLY Answer" the question how we became atheists. Like, oh, I don't know, "I stopped believing in a god" isn't a true, honest answer to how it happened...

I'm also wondering why they allude to these "interesting conclusions" and then never talk about what these conclusions are supposed to be, because I'm pretty sure just about every atheist in these forums has an honest answer to every single question they're asking.

It's a cryin' shame this article doesn't have a comments section.

RE: 10 Questions for Every Atheist
I would tell them that they believe in one god, but we as atheists have a 100% track record of disbelieving in hundreds of them!
I would also tell them that we are sick of being atheists and we'd love nothing more than for a god, any god to pop down and prove us wrong...

We're still waiting.
Waiting, waiting.......
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

RE: 10 Questions for Every Atheist
1. How Did You Become an Atheist?
By carefully scrubbing all that nasty Christian scum off of my intellect.

2. What happens when we die?
People we like mourn our passing, and then I start decomposing.

3. What if you’re wrong? And there is a Heaven? And there is a HELL!
Then I can't imagine being more surprised.

4. Without God, where do you get your morality from?
From society and personal experience.

5. If there is no God, can we do what we want? Are we free to murder and rape? While good deeds are unrewarded?
By all accounts, that's how it is regardless of whether God exists.

6. If there is no god, how does your life have any meaning?
It doesn't.

7. Where did the universe come from?
Nonsensical question.

8. What about miracles? What all the people who claim to have a connection with Jesus? What about those who claim to have seen saints or angels?
Lunacy and madness and dishonesty.

9. What’s your view of Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris?
Like, love, not altogether crazy about.

10. If there is no God, then why does every society have a religion?
If there is a God, why don't all religions worship it?

Quote:1. How Did You Become an Atheist?

I sent away for a kit I saw advertised in the back of a magazine. What a stoopid fucking question.

Quote: 2. What happens when we die?

The people who love us are sad.

Quote: 3. What if you’re wrong? And there is a Heaven? And there is a HELL!

If your God is the unconditional love you lot keep blathering about, why should I care? If there IS a hell, how could your loving God possibly put anyone in it?

Quote: 4. Without God, where do you get your morality from?

I found this amazing on-line course called 'How To Not Be An Amoral Prick In 10 Easy Lessons'. Another stoopid fucking question.

Quote:5. If there is no God, can we do what we want? Are we free to murder and rape? While good deeds are unrewarded?

What does the existence of God have to do with freedom to commit crimes? Look round you, ya eedjit - you're part of a SOCIETY, with agreed-upon moral standards and set punishment for miscreants.

Quote: 6. If there is no god, how does your life have any meaning?

MY life has whatever meaning I assign to it. Which is really none of YOUR bloody business, because I'm not the drooling feckwit posting idiotic quizzes on line in some deluded hope that people who've never met me will come round to my way of thinking.

Quote: 7. Where did the universe come from?

France. The universe came from France. Don't believe me? Ask any Frenchman.

Quote: 8. What about miracles? What all the people who claim to have a connection with Jesus? What about those who claim to have seen saints or angels?

The operative word here is 'claim'. People can claim anything. I can claim to be King Of The Westward Turnips, that doesn't make it so. And the sincerity of a belief has nothing - fucking NOTHING - to do with whether or not that belief reflects reality.

Quote:9. What’s your view of Dawkins, Hitchens and Harris?

That all of them, on their worst day, are/were immeasurably smarter than the gobshite who came up with these questions.

Quote:10. If there is no God, then why does every society have a religion?

Every society has its own raft of myths and legends. Do you really think that M'mbo J'mbo is somehow a validation of the god of Abraham?

RE: 10 Questions for Every Atheist
I sometimes wish I still had the energy to answer these lists of questions ... or at least had had the foresight to save my answers.

Though I guess it's nice to see another fresh little fledgling theist set off into the wide, evil world, thinking he'll grab it by the balls and give it a tug. Cute, in a completely annoying way.

RE: 10 Questions for Every Atheist
The questions are head shakers. They aren't meant to be answered by anyone - they're meant to be read by people who are sure that they already have the answers.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
