If people truely believes on their religions, then let them be so, I dont think that to be anything too harmful, for example I were scared of death as a child but I got over it with religion.

and earlier.. equating a belief structure with a political one? utter fucktardery

atheists exist on both right and left and isn't a political thing

Now I have grown up, & I have learned a bit more, so "I dont need same kind of saviour" in any same way, but I can understand the concept

case and point.. my best friend, the democrat.. he is also atheist... we are on opposite ends of the political spectrum and disagree on things... but we find common ground on the real issues

my lack of faith does not make me a leftist or a liberal, nor does his

By indentity politics everyone should vote dems <:happy:445725194254811157>

Pffft

and make no mistake... as I had mentioned earlier... I have NO problem with a 10 commandments being outside of a court house any more than I have a problem with a statue of satan being erected outside another government building.

people believe what they want and if they want symbols fine... just don't fucking attack me for thinking its stupid.. THEN we got problems

vote republicans and never look back

If you say out loud that they are stupid, you'll get instantly attacked <:smugpepe:445634631950139403>

that's their fault ... first ammendment bitches

But ye ye, I do agree with you

those people are anti america

why vote for them

no one is telling them to listen lol. I don't go attack people who are standing in a prayer circle because i disagree with them. Attacking someone based on what they said is a liberal trait

Joey they are DERANGED and delusional

indeed

they have reached that critical point

I grew up southern baptist in southern Mississippi... I ate the bible daily. I was baptised and went to church and bible study and sunday school. I worked at the church for free and had first hand experience in the help that churches DO provide....

but you don't have to be part of a church to do a good thing, nor be commanded by a divine being to do good

You wont get your point made with straight attack. Just make them question themselves, otherwise they wont change their minds.

it's fucking common sense

When I say "I am atheist because I have read the bible" I wasn't kidding in the slightest... I followed blindly for YEARS ... and never actually read it front to back... only listend to the sermons and followed along.... then I read it in its entirety.... and was like "the fuck is this shit?"

Thats true, but witg religions you can separate black and white with authority.

you don't need religion to seperate your blacks and whites 😃

Then you are better than 95% of the christians. Coz in studies only 5% have actually read whole of the bible

You dont need, but you wont have to highest authority.

most atheists I know HAVE read it front to back and are atheists for the same reason.. the shit makes no sense

True, but the main thing you have to consider is if they understand what is being said.

liberal atheists, I fear, are tarnishing the name because it's a minority, so they are making it 'trendy'

Liberal Atheists are the vast majority of Atheists.

Or, should I say, Left-won’t Atheists.

*wing

statistically that is probably true.. which validates my point of them tarnishing it

I don't actually mind individual Atheists.

atheism shouldn't be regarded as a political stance... but many, as proved by earlier converstation, are starting to do just that

My main problem is with Atheism as a larger group.

Nearly all atheists have bibles. They read them to mock christians, and I think thats a bit rude, but if you use the book to study & understand the otherside, then I am fully supporting you.

oh, one atheist won't agree fully with another just like one christian won't either.. both share the same concept of agreeing with the bigger picture but arguing over details

They do, but so do all Christians.
