Romney "bullying" story false

[JoeB131]

The absence of God cannot be proved either philosophically or empirically.

Thus that requires faith to believe that, thus atheism is a form of depraved religion.

Actually, this fellow put together 50 proofs that there is no God.

Philosophical and empirically, he has it covered.

Trying to compare MR's high school bullying incident with BHO and the economy will not be successful.

The issue is character, not competence. That is what Mitt must deal with here, and seems to be doing better with the last 24 hours.

Sorry, he's said something since yesterday that hasn't dug himself in deeper?

Actually, I think he's made his situation worse. Claiming he doesn't remember the incident like anyone could really forget being involved with something like that.

So in addition to being a bully and a homophobe, he's also a liar.

Says the high priest of the faith of atheism.

Atheism has no faith..or priests.

It's more of an acceptance of the fact there is no magical father in the sky that cares and micro manages the lives of some 9 billion people. Not to mention the plants and animals that share the planet.

Atheism requires faith in the belief that there is no God, without any empirical proof to support that belief.

As someone once said,

to call Atheism a religion is like calling not collecting stamps a hobby.

Whomever said that is using an incorrect analogy...

Atheism, although legally ruled a religion by the courts in the past, is a faithful belief that there is no God... Whether you want to define it as a religion is pretty much moot...

It's similar to a faithful belief that there is no intelligent life in the universe beyond Earth...

Can you please cite a court case where Atheism was ruled as a religion?

Because that scam was actually tried in the courts by the moral majority types.

The implication in Justice Black's footnote that Secular Humanism is a religion has been seized upon by religious opponents of the teaching of evolution, who have made the argument that teaching evolution amounts to teaching a religious idea. The claim that Secular Humanism could be considered a religion for legal purposes was examined by the United States Court of Appeals for the Ninth Circuit in Peloza v. Capistrano School District, 37 F.3d 517 (9th Cir. 1994), cert. denied, 515 U.S. 1173 (1995). In this case, a science teacher argued that, by requiring him to teach evolution, his school district was forcing him to teach the "religion" of Secular Humanism. The Court responded, "We reject this claim because neither the Supreme Court, nor this circuit, has ever held that evolutionism or Secular Humanism are 'religions' for Establishment Clause purposes." The Supreme Court refused to review the case.

It is not a religion to believe that something does not exist when there is no evidence of its existence.

By that logic, not believing in ghosts is a religion.

It is not depravity to not believe in the Tooth Fairy. It is not depravity to reject the idea that the only reason the Earth looks old is because God made it look that way 6000 years ago.

There's a reason our justice system uses the concept of proof beyond a reasonable doubt, as opposed to proof beyond any doubt whatsoever.

Atheism is the religion of shitting on Christians. they're too damn cowardly to do it to anyone else.

That large numbers of people have decided to believe in something for which there is no substantive evidence does constitute sufficient cause to force those who disagree to be assigned to a religion.

By that measure, those who believe without question or doubt in the existence of God would also be depraved.

Wow, Christians do a lot of whining for a religion whose motto it to "Turn the other Cheek".

Your concern is not material to those that believe

You know I'd rather be wrong than the atheists.

Ah, that tired argument... I think they have a term for it.

So essentially, you worship an insecure diety who is going to put people's sychophancy above their actions.

So an atheist who was a really decent person will go to Hell while a kind of mediocre Christian who still went to Church and tithed gets into heaven.

Or let me make this more outrageous, because I'm like that.

Ann Frank Never accepted Jesus as her savior. Probably had some hostility towards Christians considering they murdered her family after making them hide in a smelly attic for a few years. (And yes, the Nazis were Christians, learn to deal.)

Going straight to Hell.

Then you have Jeffrey Damhner. Killed and ate 20 people.. and he was gay! But at the end of his life, he found Jesus (in Prison) and was baptized before a fellow inmate brained him like a baby seal!

Going straight to Heaven.

Frankly, I think that's all kinds of messed up...

Duh . . . . . wrong. According to that theory, if I don't believe Big Foot exists, then I'm a believer in abigfootism

It's similar to a faithful belief that there is no intelligent life in the universe beyond Earth...

No one has any such "faithfull belief," unless they are creationists. Scientists make educated guesses, but they will discard them the minute someone produces proof to the contrary.

Well no atheists are actually shitting on christians..

But Christians actually beheaded those who didn't believe, ate the children of different christians and put Jews to burn at the stake or into ovens.

True stories.

Good on you guys to get an actual nazi to be the holy father..

I understand that. Most atheists are gloomy and doomy, or just rocky in the head like JoeB and some of the others. Screw 'em if they can't take a good fairy story. Or the truth?

The Constitution is a secular document; that way it protects the believer and the unbeliever. However, the non-believer can try to undermine the concept of God-given inalienable rights by chipping at the Constitution.

We need to keep on our toes against the foes of constitutional liberty, from the wack far left as well as the wack far right.
