... I'm OK with people on a personal level believing in god
Religion is not a personal thing. Religion needs a minimum of 2 or 3 people and someone who comes.
in fact you call something "to think" what I would call "mrainwashed identity".
I'm going to tone it down because I dont really want to upset people
?
its just that I dont think
grmpf
It is the lark that sings so out of tune,
Straining harsh discords and unpleasing sharps.
or a society to get caught up in religion anymore than going to church and being better people Monday through Saturday. Religion might not make you the Isis type but maybe it makes you anti choice or anti gay.
What a luck that you don't suffer prejudices because you are an atheist. But you are right for example that everyone is not in my respect, who is misusing women as slaves to bear children for others with the genes of this strangers - independent wether the genes come from 2 women, 2 men or a man and a woman. A mother is a mother. And her child is her child. Not the child of anyone else. No one has the right to buy children. That's one of the worst forms of slavery.
So they use it to con you into voting for the wrong people.
Wrong people? People who don't agree with you?
Just one small example of how theyve been using this god concept on you fools.
It's intertesting for a Christian to be called from an Atheist "[godless] fool". In worst case you will find Christians who start immediatelly to pray for you.
Put it this way. If there is a creator
To be or not to be? Whatever god is - he is creator not creation - maybe except this what he created from himselve out of nothing.
of sorts it ain't the god you talk about
I guess I never talked about what you heard in your thoughts. If I speak about god then I'm normally very careful, what doesn't mean that I'm not wrong from time to time too. Your concept of this what I believe is for sure wrong.
and you have no idea what happens when you die.
I have an idea - and a unbelievable desire to come home as if I would know every little corn of dust there without being able to remember. But on the other side I also don't live in fear if god decides nothing comes after my death. To sleep endless - why not, if this should be his will, even if I doubt that this is his will.
I have a pretty good idea.
Oh, today I heard 7 in 10 americans claim to be " christians". I challenge that. Bs
And? What is the result of this challenge? Are you still alive?
Praise the Lord, all nations! Extol him, all peoples! For great is his steadfast love toward us, and the faithfulness of the Lord endures forever. Praise the Lord!
Psalm 117
