How do people honestly believe this?

Reasons why atheism is horrible and unhealthy for our children and living things:

- Communism – evil system created by atheists!
- Atheists cannot prove God does not exist and how Earth was created.

- Atheists bash Christianity based on Jewish scriptures (Old Testament/Torah) and organized religion, and tend to ignore or forget how amazing, loving, friendly, supportive, and excellent the most influential person who has even walked on Earth, Jesus Christ, was. Christians found hospitals, universities, science, etc.
- Atheists do not believe in Jesus Christ; therefore they must hate their neighbor and enemy. Remember the Sermon on the Mount?

Atheists are minority in the U.S. and the world no matter what "secular" sources and polls voted by few thousands of people tells you that were made up by silly atheists dreaming about making America more atheist, unbiblical and unGodly than what it actually is. More than 90% of Americans believe in God. Period! Christianity is the world's largest religion, and the main religion in the western world. Christianity grows dramatically and goes global.. .

If you can convince yourself that you and your family deserve to be tortured for all of eternity because a woman ate a cursed piece of fruit 6000 years ago, why would it be a stretch to believe this bullshit too?

- Atheists do not have any morality, are heartless, soulless and cold.
While I don't believe in souls in a biblical sense, I have morality and am not heartless and cold.
- Atheists grew up in a bad family, not being loved and abused.
Eh... I grew up in an average family
- Atheism was brought upon during the French Revolution, one of the most evil time of history.
No, atheism or the lack of a belief in a god has been around for eons before jesus christ, and I don't know if the French Revolution was quite as evil a time as the crusades
- Communism – evil system created by atheists!
Not exclusively created by atheists
- Atheists cannot prove God does not exist and how Earth was created.
Believers cannot prove god does exist, and yes, atheists (and believers) can indeed prove how earth was created.
- No atheist org. contribute to charitable causes, unlike Christians, due to atheism beliefs in Darwinism.
Surely there must be atheist organizations that are charitable, either way an unfair comparison because there aren't a lot of atheist organizations compared to churches and whatnot
- Atheism making you agree with mass murder leaders like Stalin, Mao, Pot, Mussolini and even Hitler!
No, just, no.
- Atheists are mentally ill, that's why they have no faith and belief.
No, but I wouldn't be particularly surprised if it was the other way around to a slight extent
- Countries with high rate of atheism = high suicide rate (Nordic nations).
Huh?
- Atheists tries to convert (young) people into their evil belief over the internet.
This... might apply to some religious people actually. At this point, this is probably an obvious troll hint
- Atheists believe in evolutions, and want us to act like animals.
*Evolution, and we are animals
- Atheists bash Christianity based on Jewish scriptures (Old Testament/Torah) and organized religion, and tend to ignore or forget how amazing, loving, friendly, supportive, and excellent the most influential person who has even walked on Earth, Jesus Christ, was. Christians found hospitals, universities, science, etc.

Jesus Christ was not the most influential person to walk on earth. Atheists found plenty of science too...
- Atheists do not believe in Jesus Christ; therefore they must hate their neighbor and enemy. Remember the Sermon on the Mount?

Burning "witches" at the stake and telling anyone who doesn't believe in their god are to be condemmed to an eternity in hellfire doesn't sound too loving and understanding

Atheist like the jewish people who created the basis of your religion believe jesus existed but he is not our savior just a well meaning man

Non-Christians sux

Reasons why atheism is horrible and unhealthy for our children and living things:

- Atheists do not have any morality, are heartless, soulless and cold.
  True

- Atheists grew up in a bad family, not being loved and abused.
  Possible

- Atheism was brought upon during the French Revolution, one of the most evil time of history.
  I'm willing to accept that, but the Crusades were more evil than the revolution. So was WW2

- Communism – evil system created by atheists!
  Well given that the french revolution happened in 1789 and communism was invented in the 1840s, I call bullshit

- Atheists cannot prove God does not exist and how Earth was created.
  Nor can Christians

- No atheist org. contribute to charitable causes, unlike Christians, due to atheism beliefs in Darwinism.
  False, I donated a dollar to the red cross when I paid for my booze today

- Atheism making you agree with mass murder leaders like Stalin, Mao, Pot, Mussolini and even Hitler!
  I do love Pot. The rest are just political geniuses

- Atheists are mentally ill, that's why they have no faith and belief.
  Christians are delusional which is why they believe the bullshit

- Countries with high rate of atheism = high suicide rate (Nordic nations).
  Countries with high rate of Islam blow each other up more often and most chriatians are starving in africa

- Atheists tries to convert (young) people into their evil belief over the internet.
  Absolutely. We have to reach the masses

- Atheists believe in evolutions, and want us to act like animals.
  You are an animal dumbass!

- Atheists bash Christianity based on Jewish scriptures (Old Testament/Torah) and organized religion, and tend to ignore or forget how amazing, loving, friendly, supportive, and excellent the most influential person who has even walked on Earth, Jesus Christ, was. Christians found hospitals, universities, science, etc.
  I bash every religion equally, I don't discriminate like religeous people do.

- Atheists do not believe in Jesus Christ; therefore they must hate their neighbor and enemy. Remember the Sermon on the Mount?
  It is widely accepted that Jesus existed but no proof other than word of mouth can proove it. I do hate my neighbor though

How do you explain the old testament prophisizing (spell check) numerous events that wouldn't take place for thousands of years? Not to mention the new evidence that the big FLOOD, from melting ice caps,ctually may have happened RIGHT around the time of Noah's arc? The bible has a lot of geographic info that was WAY before its time. Somewhere in Job in mentions the Earth being a perfect sphere. No one knew that back then. There is even mention of of animals that resemble dinasours.

my counter offer is that you google scientific evidence that shreds the bible a new one :smirk:

starting with the creation story on paragraph 1 of page 1.

Adam & Eve is an allegory for the rise of consciousness.


taking it literally is ridiculous

it should trouble you.  Evolution is not reconcilable with the creation story.



I have a quote that I really like, and it's not meant to be offensive so please don't take it that way.


"There are those who believe evolution, and there are those who do not understand it."

Quote:

We can keep this simple. According to the Gospel of John, Jesus was God incarnate. In John 17, Jesus prayed that his current and future followers would have the kind of unity that he and his heavenly father enjoyed. He requested this so that the world would have a basis to believe that God had sent him.

“I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they alsomay be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.” John 17:20-21 (NASB)

That was the prayer. What kind of results did the self-proclaimed Son of God get?

It’s 2013.

Christianity is divided into Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox, and their Bibles differ in what books are included in the canon of Scripture. Protestants disagree over which is the most accurate English translation to use. According to the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life report in 2011, there are over 41,000 Christian denominations and movements. Even within particular denominations, there is infighting, controversy and schism.

The passage of time only reveals an increasingly fractured Christianity.

What conclusions can we draw from this?

The prayer for unity by Jesus was a resounding failure, and there is no reason to believe he was sent by God. Perhaps the prayer attributed to him was a pious fiction, or maybe he was a false messiah rejected by a real god. Most likely, there was no god to hear his prayer.

Why should anyone waste time praying in the name of Jesus,when the Bible and history reveal that one of the most important prayers Jesus supposedly uttered went unanswered?

Perhaps this is a good question to ask our Christian friends: If Jesus was God, what use is a god who cannot answer his own prayer?

I don't think evolution completely disproves God...There are plenty of missing links. Ina book that got left out of the bible called the book of Enoch. I highly reccomend researching this. A group of men decided it wasn't bible worthy thousand years ago, idiots. It depicts aliens, or angels, coming to Earth and mating with the humans. After this date, Enoch says we began to change. To become smarter, and look different. Aliens could be god..

a Christian would counter by saying that god works in mysterious ways and it is not yet the end times.

perhaps this "unity" will still be achieved during the second coming

just playing "devil's advocate" here.  (funny how well that phrase fits the situation, haha)

He requested this so that the world would have a basis to believe that God had sent him.

“I do not ask on behalf of these alone, but for those also who believe in Me through their word; that they may all be one; even as You, Father, are in Me and I in You, that they alsomay be in Us, so that the world may believe that You sent Me.” John 17:20-21 (NASB)

That was the prayer. What kind of results did the self-proclaimed Son of God get?

It’s 2013.

Christianity is divided into Catholic, Protestant, and Orthodox, and their Bibles differ in what books are included in the canon of Scripture. Protestants disagree over which is the most accurate English translation to use. According to the Pew Forum on Religion & Public Life report in 2011, there are over 41,000 Christian denominations and movements. Even within particular denominations, there is infighting, controversy and schism.

The passage of time only reveals an increasingly fractured Christianity.

What conclusions can we draw from this?

The prayer for unity by Jesus was a resounding failure, and there is no reason to believe he was sent by God. Perhaps the prayer attributed to him was a pious fiction, or maybe he was a false messiah rejected by a real god. Most likely, there was no god to hear his prayer.

Why should anyone waste time praying in the name of Jesus,when the Bible and history reveal that one of the most important prayers Jesus supposedly uttered went unanswered?

Perhaps this is a good question to ask our Christian friends: If Jesus was God, what use is a god who cannot answer his own prayer?







it's like that for everyone :psychsplit:

a Christian would counter by saying that god works in mysterious ways and it is not yet the end times.

perhaps this "unity" will still be achieved during the second coming

just playing "devil's advocate" here.  (funny how well that phrase fits the situation, haha)

What do u mean he can't answer his own prayer. His death was already planned since the beggining of 'time' When he died he said it is finished and the veil between us and god was broken. He was the sacrificial lamb. Before this point Jews would have to sacrifice animals and go to a holy person to get to god. My family has believed this for tens of generations .I'm not going to be the link that breaks the tradition. Just because I didn't see the shit go down with Jesus, doesn't mean it didn't.

I was quoting someone else and responding to it.  I actually supported your position if you read what I said carefully, not contradicted it.


Although I am sorry it appeals that you feel family pressure to believe a certain thing.


If it helps, remember that if you were born into a muslim family you might be muslim.  if you were born into a Christian family you might be Christian.  if you were born into an atheist family you might be atheist.

and yet, all of these beliefs cannot be true as they contradict eachother on many levels.


So just HOW confident are you that your religion is the one TRUE religion, when really it is kind of arbitrary?

I have a sneaking suspicion all major religions are connected and have major truths to them. Muslims believe Jesus was a prophet. A lot of the same characters and themes. Even the Siddhartha had a lot of the same preachings..just worded differently.

muslims believe jesus was a prophet, but that Muhammad was the most recent and spread the true messages of god.

you can't have it both ways.

how about eastern philosophy? 


My main point is that there are so many different beliefs in this world, and they are mostly dictated by your culture.  So to blindly follow the one your culture gives you is folly

Never...when you choose to live the lifestyle I have, you better be prepared for this conversation. :lol: and to be honest you won the debate. There is a lot of good reason to be atheist.. I just have faith. When I pray I feel 100% it gets heard..Life with no god is a scary concept for many people.

Religion has played a big part when it comes to murder/mass murder.

I think it's best to just keep an open mind when it comes to religion, but killing people because of their Beliefs? If that isn't heartless I don't know what is

Reasons why atheism is horrible and unhealthy for our children and living things:

- Atheists do not have any morality, are heartless, soulless and cold.
- Atheists grew up in a bad family, not being loved and abused.
- Atheism was brought upon during the French Revolution, one of the most evil time of history.
- Communism – evil system created by atheists!
- Atheists cannot prove God does not exist and how Earth was created.
- No atheist org. contribute to charitable causes, unlike Christians, due to atheism beliefs in Darwinism.
- Atheism making you agree with mass murder leaders like Stalin, Mao, Pot, Mussolini and even Hitler!
- Atheists are mentally ill, that's why they have no faith and belief.
- Countries with high rate of atheism = high suicide rate (Nordic nations).
- Atheists tries to convert (young) people into their evil belief over the internet.
- Atheists believe in evolutions, and want us to act like animals.
- Atheists bash Christianity based on Jewish scriptures (Old Testament/Torah) and organized religion, and tend to ignore or forget how amazing, loving, friendly, supportive, and excellent the most influential person who has even walked on Earth, Jesus Christ, was. Christians found hospitals, universities, science, etc.
- Atheists do not believe in Jesus Christ; therefore they must hate their neighbor and enemy. Remember the Sermon on the Mount?

Atheists are minority in the U.S. and the world no matter what "secular" sources and polls voted by few thousands of people tells you that were made up by silly atheists dreaming about making America more atheist, unbiblical and unGodly than what it actually is. More than 90% of Americans believe in God. Period! Christianity is the world's largest religion, and the main religion in the western world. Christianity grows dramatically and goes global.. .





Well? :utterconfusion: I'm at a loss for words right now




God is great, but not everyone sees him

but they're still blessed :-)

our soul is the most holy we have, and our bodies we should appreciate

I thought what you just cited was funny... we get blinded by our own thoughts sometimes

luckily we all wake up at some time , or maybe in next life

Jesus ate too many mushrooms and became a homosexual, and he hates straight people, sad but true.
