Aah, the Bible. The word of God inspired by Man. That's how Society knows it. OK, so do I need to say anymore? The word of God inspired by Man, but Mankind is terribly flawed. |
|
| Neil Hurle |
What exactly was God doing before that "In the beginnning..." bit of the Bible? It must have been pretty boring being God without a universe to govern. |
|
Douglas Adams |
Now it is such a bizarrely impossible coincidence that anything so mind-bogglingly useful could have evolved purely by chance that some thinkers have chosen to see it as a final and clinching proof of the nonexistence of God. The argument goes something like this:
"I refuse to prove that I exist," says God, "for proof denies faith, and without faith I am nothing."
"But," say Man, "the Babel fish is a dead giveaway, isn't it? It could not have evolved by chance. It proves you exist, and so therefore, by your own arguments, you don't."
"Oh dear," says God, "I hadn't though of that" and promply vanishes in a puff of logic.

Faith, Means Making Virtue Out Of Not Thinking, Its Nothing To Brag About, And those Who Preach Faith,
And Enable And Elivate it, Are Intellectual Slave Holders, Keeping Man Kind In A Bondage of Fantacy and Nonscence,
That Has Sporn And Justified So Much Lunacy And Destruction |

By the same reasoning upon which Religion is based [e.g. Everything that exists MUST have been 'Created' by by something].. Who created this GOD that all religious people speak so highly of?  |
|
| Y. Derwake |
Life is 'meaningless' and death is the end. OK, how do you react to these facts? 1) Stop thinking about reality and cling to religion, or 2) Change the way you think so you can accept reality as it is. It's amazing how many people go for option 1. |
|
| Ryan Grandi |
Some christians are incapable of thinking critically for themselves. People of this caliber cling to faith and instantly reject logic. However, there still exists a large supply of intellegent christians, and the best weapon for refuting their delusions is the bible itself. |
|
| Van Valencia |
children creates imaginary friends so that they can feel that they have someone to depend on even though its not real. Adults on the other hand refers to an imaginary friend as GOD. |

If god needs to be worshiped
Well, that's not god |

Religion is extremely dangerous because it gives individuals a false sense of worth. These people believe god put them here for a reason which makes them better than everyone else. There purpose is the will of the almighty, and who cares if some of us have to be sacrificed so long as they fulfil gods will.

The pope touring Africa: "The use of any contraception, including condoms, is a sin!" is a 1000 times more dangerous than any suicide attacker.

Want to know how to quickly and easily learn to use your brain more efficiently and effectively than 99% of all your fellow human beings? Become an atheist! |

Alan Harvey |
Religion is a prison where the inmates enter voluntarily in order to avoid the world outside. Atheism is walking out of the prison by realizing the world outside won't be there for long so you'd better make the most of it. |
|
|
Prof Uri Nassol |
Atheism is inevitable if you value truth over comfort. It's what happens when you realize religion is simply an unnecessary by-product of self-conscious awareness. |
|
TJ Karaba |
Atheists are godless wonders. They fight in words out of the need to make the world better. Atheists dont kill people for their beliefs, they kill religion using existent and factual datum. The world has many gods different than yours, they believe yours is wrong too. |
|
| Ivan Ratoyevsky |
Atheism is the voice of sanity in an insane world. |
|
| Michael Abreu Mendes |
We, Atheists, enjoy life.
You, Believers, pray for death. |
|
| Ivan Ratoyevsky |
if there is a gene for religion & religious faith I hope it is recessive so that god & religion die out sooner rather than later. |
|
| Bhagat Singh |
Let us see how I carry on : one friend asked me to pray. When informed of my atheism, he said, "During your last days you will begin to believe". I said, No, dear Sir, it shall not be. I will think that to be an act of degradation and demoralization on my part. For selfish motives I am not going to pray. Readers and friends, "Is this vanity"? If it is, I stand for it.
– Bhagat Singh (1930) |

"Jesus had a really bad weekend for our sins." |
|
| Longinus |
Those who follow scripture are mentally enslaved. They allow it to dictate their lives, unable to think for themselves. Pity. |

I like the bit about killing women who aren't virgins on their wedding nights, or that other bit about killing women who don't scream loud enough when they're being raped. Hilarious... but taken seriously by millions? |
|
Baron von Knifty |
The shears of religion are not wielded against the non-believer–that would be useless–but used to clip the gullible sheep themselves.
|
|
| Rudi |
If you would be a real seeker after truth, it is necessary that at least once in your life you doubt, as far as possible, all things.
--Rene Descartes |
|
| Daniel Renner |
Our life should not be spent trying to find a way to make the "next life" better, but one of making this life better for everyone who lives here now, and who will live here later. |
|
| G. L. Carrey |
The day Religion and Law become one and the same is the day I say, "Everything we do in life is not planned by a higher and greater force, but higher and greater people." |

Strange that Barack Obama should swear on a copy of the Bible? Must be something to do with it's incredibly powerful anti-slavery message. |

Science cannot explain what existed before the big bang or what caused it. So it stands to reason it was an invisible giant who lives in another dimension and created the universe in a week. Come on guys, religion makes perfect sense! |

At least muslims don't have to worry about any paedophile scandals. Any muslims who shag children would just be following the example of their prophet. He had sex with his 'wife' Ayesha when she was only 9. |

What is that prat the pope going on about gays for? He doesn't seem to be making much fuss about his army of priests interfering with little kids? If there was a god, who do you think he'd be most angry with? |

It takes 3 to lie, one to say it, one to hear and preach it, and the last to believe it and have fate in it |
|

Prof Uri Nassol |
If such a thing as God existed and decided to let atheists into heaven, we'd tell him to send us to hell. We wouldn't want to spend any time with someone who had the power to end suffering all along but simply couldn't be bothered. |

| Robert Pirsig (1948-) |
"When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity; when many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion." |

Religion: A way of finding comforting excuses for life's hardships
Atheism: Realising that life's hardships are nothing personal |

Just because billions believe the same thing, doesn't increase it's chances of being true. |

Why is everyone so in touch with God so out-of-touch with the truth?
|
|
| David Smalley |
It is a complete contradiction that a righteous god would purposely create you imperfectly, and then expect you to begin an impossible race to perfection and repentence before death.
|

Evan Gowing |
And on the trillionth day God destroyed man, and He saw that it was good. |

Alan Harvey |
The nazis slaughtered millions because they dehumanized their victims... but when it comes to dehumanizing victims the most useful and most widely used tool throughout history is, of course, religion. |

| Ivan Ratoyevsky |
Humans create the god they need. |
|
| Phil Blum |
I fail to see the reason in blind devotion to that which posseses no evidence. I fail to see the fulfillment in accepting moot religious fervor into my life. I fail to see the positives in that which perpetuates war, death, and worst of all, dupes entire peoples into believing prepostorous and laughable myths. Religion is a system of control. Nothing more. Nothing Less. |

"Discovered God" = "decided it hurts too much to think about the real world so I've decided to live in a dream world" |

Perfection is incompatible with change; there is a certain prudent practicality -- or unacknowledged irony -- in the religious notion that you have to be dead to experience it.(Observation #1341) |

As an atheist, I am perfectly capable of peacefully co-existing with theists as long as they keep their religion out of public schools and government. |

Questions Christians should ponder…
Isn’t it odd that the apostle Paul knew almost nothing about the life and times of Jesus and that Revelation (future Biblical prophecy) doesn't mention anything 'futuristic' like planes, missiles, satellites, or electricity? And why no contemporaneous history of Moses or Jesus?

“Anybody who tells you they’re living a good life and everything is fine and has rejected Jesus Christ as their personal Savior is either ignorant or living in sin and totally blinded by it.â€
-Charles Stanley (mega-church pastor and denier of scientific fact)

A holy book open to multiple interpretations should never be used as a moral guide (e.g., The Bible was once used to justify slavery for the South during the United States Civil War.) |

I often hear Christian pastors say that God speaks to us in a “still small voice.â€
My thoughts on this…
Wouldn’t a solid 4G network do a much better job in getting “his message†out to clear things up and avoid any confusion?

The “infallible†word of god in the Bible has David killing Goliath twice! Oopsie!
So David prevailed over the Philistine [Goliath] with a sling and a stone, striking down the Philistine and killing him; there was no sword in David’s hand. [1 Samuel 17:50 (NRSV)]
Then David ran and stood over the Philistine; 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 (NRSV)]
(Apparently he's alleged to have grabbed GOLIATH'S sword and finished him off with that. It's still bullshit whichever way one reads it.) Ed.

One man's heresy, is another man's self-evident truth. And around and around it goes. You'd think an all powerful god could have done a better job of getting his/her/its message out. |

EA Miller |
If Christians truly believe that heaven exists and is a beautiful, wonderful, perfect place, then why do they mourn loved ones at funerals? Shouldn't they be happy for them and be celebrating instead? |

Some people like to go to church. Others prefer thinking. |
