| Unknown |
the supreme power rests in one's own self, deep-inside our soul. Dreams and desires spark off in our minds and I think we have to believe in ourselves for making it come true.

Human beings only exist by sheer chance & by evolution. We live on a small blue planet circling a very ordinary star, this is situated in the outer reaches of a spiral galaxy. We are so small & almost insignificant its terrifying when compared to nature & the vastness of the universe. No wonder Humans invented a god to deal with this existential anxiety. |

I'm not an athiest.
An athiest is someone "without god".
You can't be without something that doesn't exist.
Therefore I'm not an athiest.
I'm just me ';-) |

| Buddha 563 BCE |
"Do not believe in anything simply because you have heard it.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is spoken and rumored by many.
Do not believe in anything simply because it is found written in your religious books.
Do not believe in anything merely on the authority of your teachers and elders.
Do not believe in traditions because they have been handed down for many generations.
But after observation and analysis, when you find that anything agrees with reason and is conducive to the good and benefit of one and all, then accept it and live up to it" |

I refuse to be a fan of any God who thinks he has become so big a star that he no longer needs to perform live. |

EVERYTHING ends.
One way or another, everything we own & everyone we care about is gone.
The complete acceptance of this fact will truly give you peace & a cherished value of today.
The fear or denial of this fact will have you abandoning logic for a frantic grasp at shallow nonsense like religion. |

Praying to any god can be likened to pissing in the wind, and you'll get just as much back. |

Never underestimate the reasoning of the layperson. Very often it's the layman who is far better equipped for thinking outside the box than the so-called professional.
I've said it before and you can bank on me saying it at every opportunity. I'm not AGAINST religion per se, I'm just anti god driven religion. And that includes Muhammad (born on my birthday) and Jesus (birth-date doubtful) who are merely god pretenders.
Gods are, of course, the invention of MAN. They only exist in the mind. And most of us know what a powerful though flawed organ the human mind is.
All manner of men, and women, should be free to THINK and to express their thoughts unencumbered. I know I will, until my dying day. |

What utter rubbish doth the pious spout, when ALL gods are made/created by MAN.
How come the pious are willing to believe very old - and obviously corrupted tales - with NO proof of their credibility and yet will readily dismiss recent evidence that PROVES beyond shadow of doubt that many of these stories were/are mere ramblings of old men?
There is NO God, there are NO gods, there have NEVER been any gods. End of.

Its not that I don't believe in god, its that there isn't a god in whom to believe. |

I dream of a world without hate, isolation, murder and disbelief. Maybe that's possible if religion doesn't exist, only the absolute and naked instinct of a man, to "brotherhood". |

With his incompetent holy book, I honestly don't think he knows what is right for him, and for us. |

My countrymen fought and died to gain their freedom from a Lord. I would dishonor their memory by kneeling before another, wherever his Kingdom may be. |

If God is omnipotent as you claim, don't you think he's got more important things to care about, than an insignificant species, such as mankind? |

Religion is a slave driver, for isn't shutting people's mouths, giving them blind faith and shutting their eye of knowledge and reason making them slaves? |

The eye of knowledge is blinded by religion, the only way to open it is to question what closed it in the first place. |

When there is no answer there is God. When people are afraid to question there is God. Coincidence? |
|
| Alessandro Ferro |
It seems Christians have the answer to everything good about God. The only thing they can't answer is if he really exists. |

okay. okay. okay? Maybe "brainwashed" was the wrong word. You haven't been brainwashed. You were pressured into the beliefs of others as a child when you couldn't properly defend your own ideas. Then, had that belief reinforced daily by those in authority in your circle as you grew up until you began pushing it on others as a belief of your own... oh wait... uh.. nevermind. nevermind... |

Nim, the only reason atheism qualifies as a religion(which in truth it is not) is because it is a belief related to your views theistically, in practice, however, it does not qualify as a religion |

oops...let's try that again...Atheism is the only fire break against the world using religion to destroy itself. |

Religion is a virus. I know this because it has the attributes of a virus, it evolves and infects, it spreads from person to person, civilizations become ruined if it infects too many people, children are likely to get it if their parents have it, it can be cured by technology, and some people are more immune to it than others. |

Mark Twain
There is no other life; life itself is only a vision and a dream for nothing exists but space and you. If there was an all-powerful God, he would have made all good, and no bad.

Nobody has all the answers -- but questions are essential. Nothing further will be discovered by those who find truth in fantasy -- and stop asking questions. (Observation #1471) |

The people who would force religion into the public schools tend to become conspicuously less enthusiastic if the religion is going to be anything but their own. |

Persons in powerful government positions who base their decisions on invisible gods in the sky are not of sound mind to be in such important positions. They often effect the lives of many rational thinking people in very adverse ways. |

Creationism is not science and displaying it as such in public school’s textbooks is child abuse, plain and simple. |

God was so pissed at his creation that he decided to murder nearly everyone on the planet (Noah’s Ark tale). But hey, he loves you unconditionally. |

David killed Goliath with a sling and a stone; there was no sword in David’s hand. [1 Samuel 17:50)]
Then David ran and stood over Goliath; he grasped his sword, drew it out of its sheath, and killed him; then he cut off his head with it. [1 Samuel 17:51 ]
Killed again? And where did the sword come from? Oops!

Native Americans thrived without the God of the Bible for thousands of years as they respected the people and nature around them. Their population was only decimated when Europeans brought disease, greed, violence, and of course, Christianity. |

The Promises Made By Priests And Pastors Are Altogether Meaningless.
Ergo: I'd far rather rely on the sound promise of a new bicycle for Christmas than the empty promise of an 'Aston Martin Vantage' made by a man of the cloth. |
