Atheism

[Enrise]

Perhaps god exists. Perhaps he doesnt. But either way religion is still completly full of s***' date=' and those who say god doesn't exist have a 50% chance of burning in hell for ever and ever until the end of time... (But don't worry, god 'loves' you)

Burning in hell for being an Atheist isn't very contradictory, nope. Not in the least.

If your an Atheist, you don't believe in anything. Not even hell.

@Dark: Mariotism? I like.

 

I've already created the religion and joined. Our holy day of the week is Wednesday' date=' we sacrifice Mushrooms to our Italian overlord, and while we pray, we must wear a red baseball cap.

 

[i']and those who say god doesn't exist have a 50% chance of burning in hell for ever and ever until the end of time[/i]

 

...only a 50% chance? If god existed, I'm sure he'd definitely put all atheists in hell. D:

Everyone who's quoted this obviously didn't understand what he meant.

 

He's referring to the 50/50 chance that God exists and doesn't exist.

 

If he exists, atheists will burn in Hell for all eternity. If he doesn't, they won't. <______<

[Dark]

How do you know it's a 50/50 chance? That's a pretty blatant assumption, don't you think?

 

For all you know, it could be a 5/95 chance, or a 66/34 chance.

His approach here is that either God exists or He doesn't, and since you have no way of proving either, each scenario is equally possible.

In a small mining town in America, about 6 years ago, there was a terrible accident in the mine.

 

The entire male population of the town (13) were trapped and presumed dead.

 

Everyone else flocked to the church to pray that God would help them survive.

 

News came that a miracle had occurred - 12 had survived, with only 1 fatality.

 

For the next 20 minutes everyone sat in the church thanking God for saving the 12.

 

Then the news came that the message was a mistake - 12 had died, with 1 surviving.

If God were to exists, then he must have 1 funked up sense of humor. :/

Guess Satan God needed some 'good' people to mine brimstone for him.

 

Either that or 11 of them were drilling something other then rocks.

 

But i'll agree with a above post... He has a funked up sence of humor... Which is something i most likely have as well.

 

But i am saddened that a few, somewhat educated, people didn't understand my simple quote that follows a Atheist's logic. (Which you SHOULD have seeing as this is a topic about Atheism)

[BehindTheMask]

"Atheism is commonly defined as the position that there are no deities. It can also mean the rejection of belief in the existence of deities. A broader definition is simply the absence of belief that any deities exist."

 

"A religion is a set of beliefs concerning the cause, nature, and purpose of the universe, especially when considered as the creation of a supernatural agency or agencies, usually involving devotional and ritual observances, and often containing a moral code governing the conduct of human affairs."

 

I shouldn't have to say any more.

(A)theism = Thinking that a god exists or not

Agnosticism = knowing that a god exists or not (essentially)

 

You can be an agnostic theist or an agnostic atheist, but agnosticism is not a middle ground between the two.

 

 

I, myself am an "agnostic atheist", as I imagine most who say they are atheists, are.

 

There isn't a God, but if a reasonable amount of evidence was presented that proved there was, I'd have no trouble changing my views on the issue.

 

 

 

... now I dissolve back into inactivity.

My head hurts from reading your post.

 

"Agnosticism is the view that the truth value of certain claims—especially claims about the existence of any deity, but also other religious and metaphysical claims—is unknown or unknowable."

[FriendlyHost]

so much stupidity.. Shaco: Agnosticism = knowing that a god exists or not (essentially)

1. this is an opinion.

[Dark]

It can also mean the rejection of belief in the existence of deities.

 

That kind of implies that deities exist, and atheists reject their existence. :/

A rejection of belief is to simply oppose the idea.
