The Stupid Lie called The Theory of Evolution

[HUGGY]

It's that important to me the human race stops this religion bullshit. If you don't see the problem with more than 50% of the population believing a lie, you're part of the problem.

Yup Atheism is a religion to you.



You must stop the belief in something you don't believe in

And have to constantly preach about it.


You ilk is as bad as the bible thumpers.



.

Watch your mouth ingrate. Start being a rude little **** and this conversation is over.

When did I cuss? Oh , that would be you and why are you so upset anyways?

Quit being so butthurt that I am attacking your religion of Atheism...

.

Atheism is not a religion in any sense of the word. Lol. ReligionLESS is what you mean to say.

Full Definition of religion

1. 1a : the state of a religious <a nun in her 20th year of religion>b (1) : the service and worship of God or the supernatural (2) : commitment or devotion to religious faith or observance
   
   
2. 2: a personal set or institutionalized system of religious attitudes, beliefs, and practices
   
   
3. 3archaic : scrupulous conformity : conscientiousness
   
   
4. 4: a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith

And they get upset when we cut and paste rather than type it out in our own words for the 100th time. Why bother when we have such a great source that explains why every argument they make is a bad one.

Atheism takes faith / is a religion.
Calling atheism a religion is like calling bald a hair color, or not collecting stamps a hobby.

Atheism is simply a lack of belief in a god or gods, nothing more. It is not a positive belief or a claim to knowledge. Instead, it is the default position of doubt, uncertainty and skepticism one may have regarding claims made by theists. Just as it takes no faith to lack belief or remain uncertain concerning any other imaginable claim, it takes none to doubt the existence of a god or gods.

Every human-being ever born begins life as an implicit atheist and must be taught the concept of theism or, more commonly, indoctrinated with it.

Atheism has no sacred texts, objects, places or times, no rituals or creation stories, no positive beliefs, central tenants, modes of worship or supernatural claims, no implicit or derived moral codes, philosophies or world views and no central organisation or church. It fulfills none of the criteria that define a religion.

“To say that atheism requires faith is as dim-witted as saying that disbelief in pixies or leprechauns takes faith. Even if Einstein himself told me there was an elf on my shoulder, I would still ask for proof and I wouldn’t be wrong to ask.” – Geoff Mather

It gets old going back and forth with people that imply they are intelligent but simply are not.

It is rare that a theist can look at the discussion concerning atheism vs theism objectively. The worst ones quote the scriptures as if they can add to any discussion looking hard at the factuality or not of religion. That's like trying to discuss if Superman is real and pulling out comic books to quote from as evidence and proof the caped crusader is a real live entity. No doubt some people believe Superman is real.

Faith is not a justifiable shield from reality. Those that hold up "faith" as "good enough" to fend off facts are just as impossible to discuss the truth regarding religion. That is where we get "intelligent design", 10,000 year old earth and believing stuff in the bible that is laughable.

Then we have those that insist that atheism is a religion. And THAT proves WHAT exactly? It isn't even remotely a religion but what they hope to gain calling atheism a religion is WHAT? exactly? Does that make their fairy tales more believable? Is it some bizzare form of "who's calling the kettle black"? Is it like if atheism is supposed to be a "religion"? then it has no better standing in reality than Christianity or Islam? That is just pure desperation.

We had a funeral the other day. I said to my brother, "cremate me when I die" and he says, "oh but the church won't perform the service if you do that". I didn't have the heart to tell him I don't believe in the church or care what they say so I just dropped it. If he wants to spend $10,000 burying me, that's on him. I was trying to save him a buck.

So I think the recent spike in cremations is a good indication that the church is losing it's grip on society here in America.

In 1958, only about one in 28 Americans were cremated upon death. Today, the percentage of Americans who are cremated has risen to more than 40 percent.

What explains the dramatic rise in the popularity of cremation? Experts say the shift is attributable mostly to demographic and economic factors.

“And since cremation is usually cheaper than burial (at least when you don’t use a cemetery to bury the urn), it’s an attractive prospect for the budget conscious.”

But America’s changing religious landscape also plays a role.

“As more Americans decline to be involved in organized worship (and the majority of these people are still believers of a sort) there’s less social pressure on them to produce what people characterize as a ‘Christian’ funeral,’” Slocum added. “The funeral industry has been remarkably successful at putting over commercial consumption—costly caskets, displaying preserved corpses—as ‘Christian’ and consumers have swallowed it without batting an eye.”

I find similarities between Republicans who defend the GOP despite the facts and theists who believe in god despite the facts and fairy tales they are forced to believe in order to be members of the cult.

For example republicans/conservatives tend to be against global warming or climate change even though it is so obvious that the oil companies pay the politicians to lie and say humans aren't causing global warming. Reminds me a lot of the evolution argument.

 

[jillian]

God made bodies of all animals and man based on the same Master-plan. All of them eat, digest, egest, respire, copulate, hear, see, taste, etc. So all of them have similar organs to perform these functions. He also graded animals and man according to the complexity of functions He gave them. So amoeba comes near the beginning, fishes and frogs later, followed by cats, dogs, tigers, lions and finally by Man.

The Master-plan of God was obvious to anyone even before Charles Darwin. Charles Darwin made use of this Master-plan for devil's lying purpose. He studied the anatomy of each animal in detail and understood the gradation system of God. He placed all animals on the table starting with the lowest and ending with the highest, Man. And he lied that the higher animals "evolved" from the lower ones, although they were created just like that by God.

The placement of animals in the right order is the only "proof" that Evolutionists are offering to the world and that is not a proof at all. There are no proofs of evolution in the entire history of mankind. And none even before his history, even if we suppose that the earth and its inhabitants were made before the history of man.

wow....science deniers are such ignorant twits.

It's because you are a chicken shit coward who doesn't even really believe his own garbage. If you did, you'd confidently tell your brother and your whole family how they're full of shit and you've got it all figured out, being the genius you are and everything.

Hell, you might even try to convert them using appeals to ridicule and popularity, like you do here! Think of how much better your perverse beliefs would feel if you converted your whole family to little hate-spewing atheists?

 

[sealybobo]

You biddies feeling better after your little cluck-fest?

Yes, and please don't keep repeating the same bad arguments. The bad argument you make that I love the most is "God has a non-physical component."

Baseless assertion. Unfalsifiable. How can you prove it?

There have been numerous claims of the supernatural, none of which have ever been demonstrated to be true. Furthermore, these claims are often mutually contradictory, and people who believe in one form of supernatural or paranormal activity will usually not believe in others due to cognitive bias and wishful thinking.

Proposing a non-physical explanation for an observed or imagined/fabricated phenomena is not a testable hypothesis and is therefore unworthy of serious consideration. It precludes any deeper insight or understanding and offers no means of distinction from any other possible supernatural claim.

There are many as yet unexplained phenomena and anomalies in nature. The scientific approach to these is to say “I don’t know yet” and keep on looking, not to presume an answer which makes us comfortable.

Note: This claim often represents a deep discomfort with uncertainty or ambiguity, demonstrating a lack of critical thinking or poor understanding of a topic. It usually coincides with credulity, which is the tendency to believe in propositions unsupported by evidence. See also: gullibility.

I mean should I re type all that every time you say the stupid thing you say or should I just cut and paste? Thank god for the internet! I mean....

It gets old going back and forth with people that imply they are intelligent but simply are not.

It gets old informing atheists they still haven't presented any science to back their claims.

I think they know. I just don't flat out tell him he's stupid and believes a fairy tale like I tell you. I don't want to lose my relationship with my brother because he takes this delusion too seriously. Plus he's a good person and he isn't hurting anyone. That doesn't mean I don't wish he'd wake up but I'm not going to try to force it and risk my great relationship with my brother. I don't care if I hurt your feelings but I do care about him. And I don't want to tell his kids. That's not my place.

See, if it weren't for THEM taking it too personally, I would tell them. But they aren't thinking logically they are thinking emotionally. That's their problem.

One time we let a bible thumping buddy have it while we were watching the Cosmos. I would NEVER do that to my brother. It isn't because I don't believe what I say. I truly do. My brother is one of a billion idiots who believes a fairy tale. People like this are holding us back as a race. The human race would be much better off if it dropped this stupid.

BUT I will say this. My brother is just about the best kind of Christian you can find. Not a hypocrite. A few months ago he saw this homeless guy after he broke $100 at starbucks and he gave the guy a $20 and the guy started crying, so my brother gave him the $80 too. I can tell you this atheist wouldn't do that. LOL.

Wrong again. See why I love this website?

There are no absolute truths in science; all laws, theories and conclusions can become obsolete if they are found in contradiction with new evidence. However, a scientific theory is the highest honor any scientific principle can obtain, for they comprise all the evidence, laws and models relevant to an observed phenomena.

Science is an exercise in falsifiability. Unlike religious dogma, which presumes the truth, the scientific method is a self correcting process, an ever sharpening blade. The models used by science to explain observations and make predictions are simply the ‘most correct’ at the time. The greatest skepticism should always be reserved for inflexible positions whose proponents insist that they and their assertions are above question and examination.

Number 40.

And you want me to type this myself rather than cut and paste when this site debunks every point you make so brilliantly?

Why there is no god

I'm perfectly ok with finding out macro evolution isn't real. I would LOVE to find out that the reptiles and birds and amphibians and fish are not related to us. If the scientific community ever decides this, I'll be the first one to admit you were right.

Who knows what people are on the fence, read Boss' bullshit and say, "yup, I'm an atheist"

And it doesn't happen overnight. Unless you never believed, it takes time to wake up. Took me 30-40 years. Although I never truly believed Christianity I always believed I had a personal relationship with god. What a twit I was.
