Peter Axel Being in an Atheist means having faith in yourself which is infinitely more challenging than having faith in any god.
David Philip Baldock (atheist) David Philip Baldock (atheist) You’d better trust in god today
And live your life the holy way
Avoid the pleasures of the flesh
Live life within the sacred crèche
Don’t doubt the dogma you’ve been taught
Control that wicked Western thought
Let scripture dictate all you do
Because your parents told you to
Pray on the floor each day as well
Or you will fuel the fires of hell
But blow yourself up for the cause
And seventeen virgins will be yours
David Philip Baldock (atheist) David Philip Baldock (atheist) So why should I believe in God?
My parents taught me, that is why
They also told me Santa Claus
Has red-nosed reindeer that can fly

So why should I believe in God?
The bible tells me that it’s true
And crowded in a wooden ark
Ten million species two by two!

So why should I believe in God?
Our priest showed me the holy way
But when a small child died in pain
He lied that prayer would save the day

So why should I believe in God?
Because I feel he’s inside me
That also makes me better than you
How misguided can one man be?

So why should I believe in God?
The marvel of life must be planned
But God is much more marvellous
So was HE made...and by whose hand??
David Philip Baldock (atheist) David Philip Baldock (atheist) While rational thought I could resist
Thank God I wasn't atheist
But now I think
I think I see
Through godless eyes religiously

Peter axell God & religion remains the single biggest blockage in human beings evoling. Until humans go beyond the mythes,delusions,fairy stories & blind belief we will never progress further.
Peter axell Richard Dwarkins said that religion was like a disease & that the churches started the brainwashing very early on in life. Because this gave them a competitive advantage, innocent naive ignorant children cannot argue back. Its nothing short of child abuse if you ask me!!.

unkown If any man among you seem to be religious, and bridleth not his tongue, but deceiveth his own heart, this man's religion is vain.
Unknown Aren't human beings strange? they believe the bones of a dead woman who died hundreds of years ago. Contained in a special box can bestow super-natural powers too them, you might as well talk to a rock.
unknown "Science, a field of grandeur and wonder, is an exciting and inspiring way to discover how the universe is and is not. Religion, with its postulation of supernatural beings and utter lack of any form of evidence for its claims, is a boring and incoherent way to find out simply how the universe is not."
NoGods4Me The seed of doubt was planted in the mind of a curious child when she asked her Catholic teacher where it talks about dinosaurs in the Buy-bull. The teacher told her, "Shut up and don't ask questions." Thank you, sister Mary Winifred, you unintentionally launched my wonderful journey to freethought. :)
mini When overwhelming evidence proves a previously believed idea is completely false we are required as a thinking species to throw out that false belief. To do any less is a insult to those who came before and to those who will follow us on this magnificent journey of human evolution.
Unknown Human Where do we all come from? we come from Fire, Water, Air,Earth & Spirit. We came from the Big Bang & We are the product of the stars & the Sun. Without this there would be no life. And this has nothing too do with gods or religions, it is what it is.
Annoona ALL things come from the Primal Void which is not born nor destroyed, all things are impermanent,feeling,touch,& thought are the same as this. Thus it ever was and shall always be.
The Heathener Other forms of worship are available:- Money, sport, celebrities, fast cars, sex, property, & other forms of materialism.
unknown Typical!,a god created by men & look at the horrible consequences? Would a goddess behave this way I doubt it.

Faithless one Isn't it just a wee bit arrogant & hypocritical for a celibate priest to advise others on sexual & relationship matters? When they themselves have no intimate marital relationship, & no sexual relationship with women. Oh! I forget women are the cause of all sin!!
Peter S. Amen! probably 50% of the churchgoers who use this respond towards
there gurus, don't even know what it means in there own mothertongue.

Ungodly God darn server, sorry! for repated posts.
Ungodly Only "human sheep" are naive & unquestioning of religion & god, it is they that follow the herd and submit to faith blindly. NOT all of us are human sheep we are called Atheists.

Longinus The only way towards learning is self-correction. Faith is unwavering conviction and thus prevents self-correction. Hence, belief out of faith is not openminded, but closeminded because one will not change their mind.
Poptart Nobody can prove either way the existence of god. Although reason and science have eliminated most of the arguments for god that I've ever heard, but reason and science have yet to eliminate the possibility of god.

I, myself, will use Pascal's gambit, or wager, and side with reason and science eliminating religion's arguments because that's the option that is most rational as opposed to religion's argument of, "The bible is true because it says so in the bible".
Colin Bridge My gullible born again hypocrite sister told me I should find and believe in the Lord before I die.
She was not happy when I replied: "Jack ? I saw and heard him last night on DVD. He said:"Book him, Danno."
Ungodly Those that believe in magical thinking (have the faith) would say that an internet outage which shutdown this website was a miracle or act of god. for goodness sakes!!! smilie face

D.B. Sorry for the repeat posts; my internet connection is, apparently, on the fritz. Admin, please delete!
Sir Julian Huxley The sense of spiritual relief, which comes from rejecting the idea of God as a supernatural being, is enormous.
Tool-Sober "Why can't we not be sober"

"Murder now the path of must we, just because the son has come."
Ivan Ratoyevsky Its the human ego that "gets in the way of" experiencing reality as it is, in my opinion. Loose your ego & you will see the world in a different way.
Ivan Ratoyevsky Reality does NOT require a belief in a god or religion. In fact you are more likely to fully experience reality without any idea of god or religion.
Ivan Ratoyevsky I have more belief in the Primal Void, that the nature of reality is that life is in a constant state of flux (change), ALL things are impermanent. Including you,me,us. That matter is created, born exists & comes to completion & dies or ends. Non of this requires god or religion though to still be true.
Ivan Ratoyevsky Atheism taught me to hold fast to my own beliefs that ALL religion is a total waste of time. Yet try not to get to annoyed, upset or angry at the sheer stupidity of what others believe. No matter how utterly ludicrous I think those beliefs are.
Ivan Ratoyevsky If you loose your sanity you end up in a psychiatric ward, if you have religious delusions you end up in church.
Alan Jones Things that apparently condemn you to hell: idolatry adultery prostitution theft greed drunkenness swindling impurity witchcraft
discord jealousy fits of rage dissensions factions and envy orgies

20 out of 27, I feel so religious
Ivan Ratoyevsky To say our reaction to god & religion "is ONLY an emotional one" is too totally belittle the incredible wisdom that human emotions provide. No! God & religion are just IRRATIONAL & that human beings can follow such ideas makes one question humanities intelligence.
TJ Karaba How can we live in harmony? First we need to know we are all madly in love with the same God. -Thomas Aquinas
Ivan Ratoyevsky There's a VERY fine line between religious inspiration, extremism & madness. Its the madness of extremism mixed with politics that is totally deadly.
Ivan Ratoyevsky Turning to god or religion for answers to your problems is to accept other peoples solutions, its always going to be second best or wrong at worst.
Ivan Ratoyevsky God doesn't exist & is unknowable therefore religion is also unknowable. The universe does exist but is is also unknowable in its entirety that's the paradox. One does exist & remains a mystery the other doesn't exist.
Ivan Ratoyevsky The very nature of reality is beyond all dualities, including being beyond any human conceived notion of a god or any religious system of belief. The nature of reality is a total mystery.
Ivan Ratoyevsky My belief is that we ALL come from the "Primal Void" (which is NOT born nor destoyed)and when we die, we return to the void.
Ivan Ratoyevsky ALL religions, Gods, Gurus & religious belief systems created by humans divide the universe into parts. This creates duality but reality is beyond duality this is precisely why its NOT graspable by humans or by the human ego. i.e. reality remains a mystery & is unknowable. Humans fear most that which is unknowable.

An enlightened trust in the sovereignty of human reason can be every bit as magical as the exploits of Merlin, and a faith in our capacity for limitless self-improvement just as much a wide-eyed superstition as a faith in leprechauns. ― Terry Eagleton

Christians should take note that NO atheists were involved in the crucifixion of their "son of god".

To have done so would have been hypercritical.
