The Biblical Believers....

the clockwork, I don't get you at all

You don't know how the earth was created for a fact, neither do I, but I can't bash your ideas?

If I told you that I thought it was fecal matter from a huge angel, wouldn't you think that was ridiculous? I have ZERO proof of that. I could come up with an ancient book or two to support it, but would that really make it any more credible? NO.

And how is atheism weird? YOU are an atheist to the VAST majority of religions ou there right? So how is that weird? You know exactly what it is to be an atheist in respect to every single religion but your own.

I don't believe in all kinds of things, as I am sure you don't either, and that is more normal than anything.

thats the beauty of atheism

you just stand there and look at him like he's nuts - after all he made the crazy assertion that God exists. It is his obligation to prove these untestable supernatural claims, not yours to disprove it.

hum,ans came on a spaceship and dropped a bomb that wiped out the dinosaurs that were our only large threat on the planet. Its easier to take them out with one sweep than one at a time. Then we crash landed our supplies and had to start living from scratch and surviving and spreading throughout milions of years. or something like that i think.

still involves dropping a huge bomb to wipe out the life on the earth

People have a tendency to shut down when you call out their religion. One can provide all the facts, point out all the logical inconsistencies, offer better viewpoints and they just put up a wall to thinking differently.

Isn't it amazing. Christians are more than happy to bash Muslims or any other religion but you better not attack their delusion.

Yes I know this is true but for the most part I would say the majority do not.



Again to be Catholic does not mean you have to abide by every rule they have. It's a state of mind not a state of living.

FACT: There is no proof from ANYONE that explains how the world was created. Yes there are theories but they are not facts. How can you bash on someone elses way yet support your way, it's hypocritical.



This is about as stereotypical as ever. I have a friend that owns a german shepard and his life SUCKS, therefore; ALL german shepard owners have shitty lives. No your life won't be "aimless" as I pointed out in the first statement I said to an extent. What exactly does an athetist have to look forward to after death? Is someone wrong for having hope and desire for an afterlife? I think it's beneficial for someone to lead their life on a track, for the better, in hopes of it paying off in the end.



Maybe so but I bet comparision levels of Atheists vs Religious types are a little slanted. There are far more Religious people in the population than Atheists. Besides Atheism is a little strange in the first place, it's believing in not believing




This is a trend. What is the most prodominant religion in the world? Of course they are going to lead every "statistic" when they have double the numbers of everyone else.

The trend now is Buddism. You go to a prison now and there are Buddist everywhere. I have worked in a prison so I can safely say this. Go to prison and convert to Buddism. It's a trend not a lifestyle.


PS - I respect an educated, non threatening debate. I'll debate but not going to argue

Where do I start.
1. Science has shown conclusively how the Earth was created. Even the Catholic church accepts evolution.
2. If you call yourself a Catholic you must believe in their doctrine completely. Otherwise, you're just a follower of Christ...a Christian. After all, da pope is God's man on Earth and tells you what you should do to be in God's good graces.
3. Atheists accept life for what it is, it doesn't preclude an after life, we don't know. We live life to the fullest as opposed to someone who doesn't need to give a shit about his current life because he has a delusion of a paradise afterlife.
4.The statistics are rates, percentages, it doesn't matter the number because the rate remains the same. They provided a massive sample which is why the Barna divorce study shook the Christian world. The Bible tells you that when God is in your life you'll be happy Vs. us atheists but it turns out it's bullshit. Atheists are less likely to get divorced than believers, we know we have to make it work as opposed to relying on a sky deity to make us happy.

Finally, I don't care what anyone believes but don't force your opinions on me. I'm a militant atheist because of the constant attacks I get from Christians. Last Sunday, I and my neighbors, got Jesus pamphlets under our doors.

this sounds familiar with what Zacharia Sitchin is writing about too. Something about humans being the retarded left-behinds of the aliens??? Weird....there is a lot of other theories about the Origin of Man out there that involve UFO's
