You're not a real Atheist
August 24, 2014 at 5:44 pm

I've seen this definition on this thread often: "Atheism is a specialized subset of skepticism, and that is that there is no god, but all other superstitious beliefs/conspiracies or concepts are fair game."
But I have to disagree with the statement above. Anyone who even deviates into such realms of 'magic' or 'conspiracy' is not a true atheist but is a closet-theist.
Why?
God factor will always come into play when it comes to UFO's/Ghosts/ or even moon landing.
I'll give you an example:
If you believe in ghosts, then you are not an atheist because you believe humans have a soul and an afterlife. Therefore intelligent design exists, because a spirit is energy that once encompassed the biological body.
If you believe in UFO's then the topic that the Annunaki seeded humanity comes into play. If the Annunaki manipulated our DNA then they are our gods by definition. Not the GOD who created them, but our gods (lowercase).
Moon Landing - If you believe it was staged because they are trying to hide that a prior civilization built bases on there, then you lean towards the concept of intelligent design again where someone created humans and Darwinism is a hoax.
To me atheism is the equivelent to extremist muslim/christian. It is the extremist belief in SKEPTICISM of everything and anything. Science is GOD, spirituality is SATAN and one should never believe in spirituality.

Rubbish. I can think of at least three mechanisms whereby ghosts could exist without god.
Furthermore, the Annunaki silliness has bugger-all to do with UFOs.
Erm...if the moon landing was staged, then how would we know if there were prior bases there or not?
Lastly, I don't give a rat's charbroiled arse what atheism means to YOU. Words have agreed upon definitions. If you want to make up your own for 'atheism', so right ahead. But don't expect anyone to take you seriously.
You're a very stupid person.

Our military has moon bases there since the 70's. What was staged is what was given to the public sheeple. You actually think millions of tax payer money never went to going back to the moon?

Then how could the lunar landings have been faked? If you have bases there, then there WERE lunar landings.
Do you have any evidence for the existence of these bases?

I don't like it that Boru called you a stupid person. But then you came out with that answer. You're on your own.

Atheism just means you don't believe in god(s).
Belief in aliens, conspiracy theories, homeotophy, etc.. have nothing to do with atheism. Skepticts, who are also atheisist, don't believe in aliens, conspiracy theories, homeotophy, etc...

Is there a cult following known as Skeptism that is superior to Atheism?
Skeptism sounds like the true enlightment of atheism, the belief in NOTHING!
No conspiracy, no spirituality, no aliens, no underground bases or moon bases, that the world is round (or flat).

GayAtheist, Boru asked you a question, are you going to answer it?
'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House
“Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom
"If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech

Boru, in that instance, was being overly polite.
