Just because someone is a non-swimmer, it doesn't mean that they cannot see the benefits of being able to swim.

However, my being a non-believer doesn't mean I can see ANY benefits whatsoever in being a believer.
carlton sumsion carlton sumsion Do not pass my epitaph, traveler
But having stopped, listen and learn, then go your own way
There is no boat in Hades, no ferryman Charon
No caretaker Aiakos, no dog Cerberus
All we who are dead below
Have become bone and ashes but nothing else
I have spoken to you honestly, go on traveler
Least even while dead I seem talkative to you
Ancient Roman Tombstone
carlton sumsion carlton sumsion Belive nothing
No matter where you read it
Or has said it
Not even if I have said it
Unless it aggrees with your own reason
And your own common sense
Buddha

carlton sumsion carlton sumsion Religion is not a mental illness. You will not find religion listed in any psychiatric books, journals, university studies. I challenge anyone to find it listed as one. No, I'm not a theist. I'm an atheist stating facts.
Richard Brown Richard Brown An atheist was taking a
walk through the woods,
admiring all that evolution
had created.
"What majestic trees!
What powerful rivers!
What beautiful animals!",
he said to himself. As he
was walking along the
river, he heard a rustling
in the bushes behind him.
When he turned to see
what the cause was, he
saw a 7-foot grizzly
charging right towards
him. He ran as fast as he
could. He looked over his
shoulder and saw that the
bear was closing, He ran
even faster, crying in fear.
He looked over his
shoulder again, and the
bear was even closer. His
heart was pounding and
he tried to run even faster.
He tripped and fell on the
ground. He rolled over to
pick himself up, but saw
the bear right on top of
him, reaching for him with
his left paw and raising his
right paw to strike him.
At that moment, the
Atheist cried out "Oh my
God!...." Time stopped. The
bear froze. The forest was
silent. Even the river
stopped moving.
As a bright light shone
upon the man, a voice
came out of the sky, "You
deny my existence for all
of these years; teach
others I don''''t exist; and
even credit creation to a
cosmic accident. Do you
expect me to help you out
of this predicament? Am I
to count you as a
believer?"
The atheist looked directly
into the light "It would be
hypocritical of me to
suddenly ask You to treat
me as Christian now, but
perhaps could you make
the bear a Christian?"
"Very well," said the voice.
The light went out. The
river ran again. And the
sounds of the forest
resumed.
And then the bear
dropped his right paw .....
brought both paws
together...bowed his head
and spoke: "Lord, for this
food which I am about to
receive, I am truly
thankful."
Richard Brown Richard Brown if god is too big to be worshiped,
he won't be too small to be untraced...
Austin Powers Austin Powers The religious have the freedom to enjoy religion, just as musicians have the freedom to enjoy music. But, have you ever heard of a fundamentalist musician?
Austin Powers Austin Powers When my friends and family are experiencing personal problems, issues and tragedies....I tell them directly that I am thinking positively about them and sending them positive energy to help them through their personal experience. It doesn't require an imaginary intermediary to do that for me....mail gets lost in the post.
Richard Gomes Richard Gomes The problem of believing in transcedental beings is that you cannot separate what is real from what is imaginary, if there's such thing like something real in the imaginary domain.

carlton sumsion carlton sumsion We can go on running our mouths about a myth but what we should realize is how dangerous religion is. In the U.S we have a government that believes in God and also has the biggest military in the world. Our Christian president carries a brief case called the nuclear football which has all the nuclear launch codes. Let's hope he doesn't think he talks to God.

Then there is Islam. We've seen them cut the throats of infidels in the name of Allah. Pakistan has the bomb. What happens if that government falls to radical islam? We live in a dangerous world all because of religion.

Pause for thought:

How come our Head of State (UK) is also the Head of religious Lies and Propaganda?

And why is it that although not ALL MPs are believers in god(s) and religion (despite what folk might think, they can't ALL be THAT stupid), not ONE of the buggers is prepared to admit it to their constituents or to come clean to the public at large?

Hypocrisy appears to thrive in our seats of power.

According to the laws of evolution, British cattle and sheep should - by now - have webbed feet.
Carlos Mora Carlos Mora Atheist organizations have as their main goal, joining the skeptics , agnostics , atheists , freethinkers and secularists around epistemic and ethical values ​​. The epistemic values ​​are the skeptical position , honest and rational propositions , which includes scientific prospecting , construction tireless and humble knowledge about the world and about ourselves . Ethical values ​​are derived from consequentialist ethics of research, such as those expressed in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. They encourage humanists to live according to these values ​​in a democratic debate against dogmatism and authoritarianism , construction of meaning for human life in an aesthetically satisfying. If you are a religious and reading this quote , I ask you: Who has consistency in attitudes , you or us atheists ? Do you believe that we need a holy book full of inconsistent stories to direct us in our lives ? Join us and save yourself . You will be welcomed with love.
Ayn Rand–Anthem Ayn Rand–Anthem “I stand here on the summit of the mountain. I lift my head and I spread my arms. This, my body and spirit, this is the end of the quest. I wished to know the meaning of all things. I am the meaning. I wished to find a warrant for being. I need no warrant for being, and no word of sanction upon my being. I am the warrant and the sanction. Neither am I the means to any end others may wish to accomplish. I am not a tool for their use. I am not a servant of their needs. I am not a sacrifice on their alters.”

Evolution and what have the apes ever done for us?

When it comes down to it I do believe that the evolving human/primate having dexterous fingers and a largely meat diet had a lot to do with our evolution.

The developing brain and those fingers and eventually the opposable thumb enabled early Man the hunter to put his thoughts to better use. I mean. There were and are PLENTY of animals that rely on their hunting skills and who have OODLES of thinking-time on their hands but who will never invent the flint tool or dig a pit and put sharpened sticks at the bottom with which to easier catch their prey, simply because they cannot grip.

I can just imagine a pride of lions or a pack of wolves thinking along similar lines in their down-time.

"Hey, Leo! Wouldn't it be great if we could make some sort of trap to catch Gnu instead of having to chase them for miles in the heat of the day?"

"F**k off back to sleep, you silly ass. How in Dog's name are we going to dig with these silly paws??"

"Maybe we could employ a few of those apes?"

"Hahahahahahahahaheeheehee!"

"See! Even that sodding Hyena thinks you're crazy!!"


"Just a thought."

Ontology is the antithesis of Faith. The pious are apt to lie through gritted teeth and clenched fists.

Not only do they lie to those who question their faith but often they lie unto themselves.
