The Biblical Believers....

Did GW actually say that?

I don't like the religious right any more than you do. trust me on that one.

However, there is no need to be so ANGRY at all people who believe in God.

Doesn't that make you as dogmatic as those you oppose?
I don't see how disbelief can be considered dogmatic. It's simply disbelief, dogma requires a set of principles that are beyond question. My disbelief is based on the evidence or more precisely the lack thereof for a creator being. My ire is raised when people want to force their "faith" on me. Like teaching creationism in science classes.

Well, my point was that you go beyond just disbelieving. You make lots of angry threads about religion when the topic hasn't even come up. Seems like you try to argue your points harder than any believer on here is arguing back at you.

This thread was made because Phaded said I was going to hell. I made this thread and posted for him to take it here instead of hijacking another thread. Go look at the "Greatest Armies" thread for the origin of this one.

I have a right to be angry, atheists are subject to discrimination on all levels. Bush Sr. said that atheists are not only unpatriotic but we shouldn't even be considered citizens because we lack the proper vision for the country. I fought in a war under that dickweed's watch.Do you think a sitting president could have gotten away with saying that about Catholics?

No one listens to anything GWB says anyway. We are talking about the same president who said "information is moving -- you know, nightly news is one way, of course, but it's also moving through the blogosphere and through the Internets." You are going to get all bent out of shape about that guy? He called Gonzalez "mi amigo" and the "eternal general of the United States."

I think Christians get lots of flack. Muslims get lots of flack. Let's not even talk about the poor, peaceful Buddhists. I can tell you one thing, it is a little sickening that in colleges everywhere professors can openly harangue Christians as being somehow intellectually inferior. It happens every day.

It was Bush Sr...not GW that made that comment. I was just using that as an example of the attitude toward atheists in general. If Christians would leave well enough alone and not try to teach that T-rex was a herbivore living in the garden of eden with adam and eve they wouldn't be such easy targets.
 
Sort of sad how much religion has shaped humanity, all of the violence, the old testament genocide. Why on earth would a god tell his people to brutally murder an entire race like that?

Based on the old testament, Hitler and God have a lot in common.

it just seems to me that humans do shit like torture others, revel in violence and suffering, unlike anything else in the animal kingdom. is this really what the "creator" or "god" that anyone believes in had in mind? Why not create a world without suffering?
