If logic, reason, and science dictate that there is no god, and yet you still deny all evidence, you are proven to be an idiot.
I'm sorry, but there is no other way around it. The proof is right in front of you.
God is an old way of thought from an old world. Get with the times.
There is no proof of a lack of god. In fact, numerous "miracles" with absolutely no explanation have happened. Some of us like to call those "acts of god". While it is not proof, it leaves doubt in the lack of god.
Ya know, science has a hell of a lot more proof than religion. As far as I'm concerned there is absolutly no proof for religion.
Science on the other hand has plenty. Just read the link in the OP for a healthy dose of proof.
Proof is a human designed way to disagree with each other. I've seen a lot of people put to death or incarcerated without any proof, just "heresay" and lack of DISPROOF.(Just so you know, in many cases, "innocent until proven guilty" is NOT true)
They directly impede on my life, and therefore I have a right to say something about it. They come to my door, praising the good word. They yell at my friends for being gay. They protest on my schools fucking doorstep for the funerals of 5 men and women killed in a terrible tragedy. They judge and judge and judge. They ask for money. They put "In God We Trust" on my money. They've been taking away our rights, one by one, for the past 8 years (I'm looking at you G.W.B). They're hypocrites. They dismiss all rational thought.
I could go on, but Christians piss me off. Get a life and accept that the only place you're going after you die is a grave.
First off, I'd like to say I am sorry you have been "mistreated" by Christians. I use quotes because I am unsure as to the extent and don't know details.
Now on to the point. How do you feel about democratic supporters who rallied at a US Army vet's funeral, screaming how we are murdering women/children and these people die for nothing? I guess all democrats are solider-haters.
and before I continue, this
gem
You know, in real life, we're shown that one bad apple ruins the bunch. Don't see how much different this is.
Sure, we're all adults, but normal adults stop believing in imaginary friends at a young age.
One bad apple right?
9 Muslims blew up the WTC. Not counting thousands of other bombings/massacres.
Quick, lets nuke Mecca and the middle east. Obviously, all muslims are evil terrorists.
Approximately 3 in 4 African Americans end up in some stage of corrections in their life. Guess we should just lock them all up and gas them right?
Illegal immigrants account for over 50% of the criminal activities in Texas, California, and Florida. The majority are Mexican and Cuban.
Guess we should line 'em up and shoot them?
Most serial killers are Caucasian. Quick, kill the whites!
If a bad apple ruins the bunch, by your method we should just burn the entire orchard.
I understand that your choices in life may conflict with other people's choices in life.
I ask you this. You hate Christians because they disapprove of your homosexual friends(and other reasons).
How do you feel about muslims who would decapitate those friends for being homosexual?
Not all Christians are evil hate mongering Borg.
and lastly.
They also shoehorned "under God" into the Pledge of Allegience so generations of schoolchildren would know they're not godless communists. Gotta get 'em while their minds are made of rubber, after all.
and on the "In God we trust" on our currency...
Welcome to a nation founded and raised on Christian beliefs. Maybe not "modern" beliefs, but still Christian basis.
If you don't like how things are, you're free to leave at any time.
In conclusion, people vary based on how they were raised and taught to behave within their religions. Some athiests are good friends with religious people and some find them "ignorant" or "silly". Some religious folk are the same, finding them as "godless heathens" or such.
Stop generalizing because it could be done to you too.
Just remember homosexuality has the highest rate of STD transference.
AIDS also originated from one gay man.
Does this mean we should ban gays too?
I didn't think so. Every group has it's "radicals" and they are all horrible. I personally don't care what color, religion, or sexual preference someone is. Everyone is a human first, the rest is clothing. That's what my Christian beliefs taught me. Live and love. Never hate anyone because they are different or think different. Just respect their opinions and do your best not to step on their beliefs without compromising your own.
So seriously. Live and let live guys. Come on.
(As a PS, I'm sorry if anyone was offended by any of the above. I'm simply passionate about not just my religion, but the belief that no one should hate someone simply because they believe or don't believe in something)
