Enoch's Author Why do people think that the statement “atheism is a religion” has import. Atheism is not about religion, it is about a disbelief in God.

Alan Harvey Alan Harvey Life is not a dress rehearsal. This is the only one we ever have. To think otherwise is the saddest aspect of the human condition and adds more pain than it ever removes.
Matthew MacKenzie Matthew MacKenzie I refuse to understand or believe in a belief that refuses to understand or believe.
Baron von Knifty Baron von Knifty Every time you praise your religion you send the human race one step back into the Dark Ages.

Baron von Knifty The religious attribute a beautiful day to god. But then they say a day of hurricanes or floods is caused by Mother Nature. So why pray? If god can’t control nature and nature can do whatever it wants, why pray?

Sam Harris “In America, religious moderation is further enforced by the fact that most Christians and Jews do not read the Bible in its entirety and consequently ave no idea just how vigorously the God of Abraham wasnts heresy expunged."
Baron von Knifty Atheists are the true favorites of god, because if god expects his followers to pray and kowtow to him, or follow his commandments and attend rituals, god puts no such requirements on the Atheist, who he also created.
Therefore god must trust, love and believe in the Atheist most of all.

Arsène I. MUHIRE Arsène I. MUHIRE God exists in a place that doesn't exist.
Hurd Hutchins Hurd Hutchins Religion: an agreed-upon fable. A Religion: a group of people with a love of their own agreed-upon fable and a hatred of the competition's.
Gregarious Gregarious It is time that we accept the accounts in the Bible, Koran etc. as parables, fables, allegories, metaphors and stories passed down through the generations. In the same way we accept Aesop's Fables for what they are.
Hurd Hutchins Hurd Hutchins The only religion worth practicing is the religion you can create to your own specifications and collect the gate receipts for--just like the Vatican so profitably does.

How come God always drops in for GOOD publicity? I've never known God get BAD publicity.

After any disaster - natural or otherwise - the few fortunate survivors will always be there spouting off about their prayers to God being answered and in so doing give credence to God. However, I have yet to read or hear anything from any of those whose prayers were completely ignored and who subsequently perished.

It's a win win situation as far as God is concerned.
Harrison  Ervine Harrison Ervine If God is the 'Protector' of Christians then why do so many christian soldiers die fighting for him?
Aldous Huxley Aldous Huxley “Hitler,“ wrote Herman Rauschning in 1939, "has a deep respect for the Catholic church and the Jesuit order, not because of their Christian doctrine, but because of the machinery they have elaborated and controlled, their hierarchical system, their extremely clever tactics, their knowledge of human nature and their wise use of human weaknesses in ruling over believers.”
― Aldous Huxley, Brave New World Revisited

My muse of the day:

Modern astronomical science has the age of the Universe down as being around 14,000,000,000 Earth years old.

Our galaxy - The Milky Way - didn't come into being until roughly 1,000,000,000 years later, making it 13,000,000,000 years old.

Our Sun didn't burst into existence until around 8,000,000,000 later and our planet Earth - along with the other planets - roughly formed around the Sun over the following 500,000,000 years.

MAN gradually evolved from an extremely long line of species through the primate line to eventually become top of the food chain and masters of this world only in the last relatively few thousand years.

It makes one think, doesn't it? Where does this leave all the different stories of the creation that all the different holy books contain? Books that were written by peasants on evidence given by peasants at a time when they didn't know shit.
Vancoqt Religions are divisive entities that caused hatred and disunity amongst fellow humans, they’re dreadfully segregating humanity.
Unknown The Universe deserves a better explanation than just "God did it".
Dickone C: Don’t believe in bible-god and you will go to biblical hell.
M: Don’t believe in allah and you will go to islamic hell.

David A Fordyce The sad reality is, millions and millions of people throughout the world, from all different creeds, have naively put their “entire faith” in ideas or stories written by the hand of man, claiming this that or the other. Let me reiterate; “STORIES WRITTEN BY THE HAND OF MAN.”
Oh yes, most of the well-known religious books claim that God stated this or God said that or “this is the word of God;” but what will always remain an irrefutable reality to the “un-brainwashed,” is that man himself physically wrote all the various manuscripts or wording that went into producing religious books, indeed “all books;” not God.
It makes little difference from which perspective you take it from; it always reverts back to the same conclusion, “human-beings write words.” Every word you have ever read from a holy book was written by flesh and blood third dimensional beings; therefore also subject to the “vice and frailty” of those third dimensional beings.
So the indisputable reality is, people are placing all their faith in “MAN” in the hope that man wrote the truth about what God may or may not have said. Blind faith is nothing more or less than stupidity.
Clint Murphy Talking snakes? Give me a fucking break!
Clint Murphy The bible is not completely useless if you are out of toilet paper you can always wipe your ass on those soft pages.
carl s. True salvation is becoming an atheist.
Clint Murphy Hey Christians! out of the gene pool!
JGMore I can't prove that god doesn't exist but I'm only human. god can't prove that he exist and he's god
Baron von Knifty
Religion Is Not Wrong; for something to be wrong evidence must be weighed against it to make an honest, truthful judgment. Religion has no evidence, therefore religion is not wrong; without evidence religion is absolutely absurd.

Dickone Prayer: A silly self-deceiving act, talking to the air to please oneself.
tych Christians assert that there are passages in the bible that are not meant to be taken literally. Does this mean they are nothing more than poetic nonsense ?
Tych Until I found the evidence that he didn't exist, Santa Cause seemed plausible too.
Unknown heaven is just missing too many great people
Captain Before I was born I wasn't alive & there was no God nor Heaven for me so why would I think there is a God or Heaven waiting for me when I'm not alive again ? :)
Edward II I believe that Humans are nature's chemical reactions that happens to live and have feelings. After death, there will be... nothing. I say we live life while we are alive. And I suggest to enjoy life itself not less than a human.
Art Corral I rather live enjoying life then die enjoying death!
NoGods4Me The only thing Christians and Muslims can agree on is their hatred of atheists. Doh-doh birds of a feather, stick together.
Robert Green Ingersoll Belief is not a voluntary thing. A man believes or disbelieves in spite of himself. They tell us that to believe is the safe way; but I say, the safe way is to be honest
Dawn Henderson It never ceases to amaze me at how many religions depend upon circumcised penises.
Corey Fell Live your life the way YOU intended, not a figment of someone else's imagination.
Atheism quotes "To assert that the earth revolves around the sun is as erroneous as to claim that Jesus was not born of a virgin." - Trial of Galileo in 1615
Sam Harris Muslims must learn that if they make belligerent and fanatical claims upon the tolerance of free societies, they will meet the limits of that tolerance.
Jesse Jacobs It's amazing that Atheists normally have better morals and common sense than Christians, even more amazing is that Christians still act as if Atheists are the immoral ones who don't believe in God. Unlike Atheists, Christians still judge, hate, slander, gossip and lie. But continue to "hate" Atheists for being non-believers.
