Sheeple in atheism? Over half of the professed atheists I speak with make statements like Christianity is silly, evidence for God does not exist, science has proven belief in God is dumb, etc.
However, most cannot provide sound reasoning and examples for their claims and refuse to acknowledge the mountains of evidence for theism. Not agreeing with evidence or coming to a different conclusion upon the evaluation of such does not mean it isn't there.
Sheeple.

Sheeple.
Here....
Let me help you to understand what a sheeple is since you seem to be having a hard time with this. A sheeple is a sheep, or lamb if you will. God is the "shepherd". Surely you are familiar with the line "The lord is my shepherd" from the 23rd Psalm?
Clearly you are a moron if this had to be pointed out for you and why the term "sheeple" is used in conjunction with christianity.
Atheists don't follow any god. They are not sheeple to such nonsense.

When I was a muslim those arguments didn't really bother me because I thought, life is a test, those things were there to test peoples' faith. However, what really struck me, and I thought about this this week actually. How logical and coherent is it with the theistic god that every single person has different chances of getting into heaven and experience eternal bliss? How is that just? It does not make sense to me at all, and destroys the theistic forms of god; that some people are literally more likely to become sinners because of their genetic makeup and their environmental influences that are not under their control, leading to eternal punishment. How is that just? That cannot be if the theistic god is just, and if the Qur'an says God is just, then the Qur'an is wrong and God's words cannot possibly be wrong.

Because, like Chad, they are afraid to face the reality of what their holy horseshit actually says.

Misleading and erroneous. I am not chained by a pursuit of a magical sky daddy. My application of logic and reason led me to see that atheism is untenable and self defeating. Brainwashing, hypocrisy, and people being sheeple is rampant in atheism as well as any religion.
So many people here would love to label Christians as blind, uneducated, emotionally needy, illogical, brainwashed morons. I would readily compare brainpans, pedigrees and personal accomplishments with anyone here.
Again, most objections to Christianity are morally based, most often because of a personal lifestyle, not because of "science" or biblical errors, etc.
May I ask, what does it mean to be an atheist? You don't seem to understand the simple concept of atheism.

Sheeple.
Care to provide some of those claims they cannot provide sound reasoning and examples for? And where the fuck are those mountains of evidence for theism?

I guess people disliking religion because it fucks with their mind. It plants a doubt, that if you sin by "consuming" pleasure you will have a true nightmare in afterlife.
