@MetGreDKo Oh God, it's undeniable that the Atheist movement has been dying for years. If Sam Harris, PZ Myers, and so many others can admit it why cna't you?

@Beemann The constructed strawman is your pretense that somehow, we're "dodging" our priest issue when we acknowledge it, then you dodge and pretend we're supposed to ignore the much more dangerous teachers, prison guards, foster home workers, and so on, just so you can pretend Catholics have a worse problem when they obviously do not.

YOu want to lie and say we don't acknowledge the problem? Well eff you, because we do. Y ou're the one dodging and trying to dismiss everybody who's NOT a Catholic.

"foster care being shit isn't hidden. There's a number of studies that are pretty open about how ass it is" is apparently not acknowledging

fucking wew

But go ahead, like I said, we get used to hypocrisy from people who pretend the Catholic Church has a worse problem. It's not like you need evidence for your position or anything.

meanwhile you outright painted it as some Atheist Lie that the Catholic Church hides kiddie gropers

Anyway, the science all says Atheism is dying,a nd won't be missed. Given how many pedo-apologists existw ithin that network (like Dawkins), who cares what they think?

@Beemann Did no such thing. Merely noted the hypocrisy on display here.

here is something we can all agree on: humans are the worst, and should be exterminated

@Beemann And the reality that you OBVIOUSLY do not care AT ALL about raped children. and just want to get your hate on. I get it. We understand.

@Grenade123 I"ll drink to that!

" The anti-priest thing is just more leftist anti-Christian rubbish. Even the current revelations about priests mostly involve things that happened in the '80s and '90s that just got covered up."
"the revelations are about pedos still being shuffled by the church m8"
"No, they aren't, sir"

we need that AI from wargames, get this nuclear apocalypse a rollin!

@Beemann It is a FACT that Catholic priests are less dangerous than schoolteachers. Now why do you keep changing the subject away from just ACKNOWLEDGING this statistical, scientific fact, so a real discussion can be had?

More projection

@Beemann speaks for himslef, pretending he cares about sex abuse victims while insulting one to his face.

you came in to dispute the claim I made, ergo the topic is the Catholic Church and priests

you getting abused does not mean you get to act like an illiterate fuckwit. The two are, in fact, not connected in the slightest

Really? It looks like the generic debate channel to me, and it looks like you pretended that the CC has a particularly bad problem when it's a fact that the secular system has a worse problemk and covers up worse. Whatever, we all get it, you hate Catholics.

@MaxKolbe You're conflating two things now. One can be atheist and not be a part of a movement. Being atheist just means holding a belief god or what ever you wish to call it does not exist or merely not believing one does exist (definitions tend to vary in different circles. The precise definition doesnt matter here). Being a part of an atheistic movement means holding that belief and striving towards something with others in a collective effort.

And don't care about raped children even a little.

lol this is SJW tier shit my dude

@MetGreDKo The Atheist MOvement--not the average atheist, the capital A Atheist movement--is an anti-Christian movement and has been a while now. And supported by MSM the whole way. That's because the agenda was always to hate on religious people, not to actually help anyone.

">religion prevents degeneracy
That's why Catholic priests and Islamists keep diddling kids right?"
Religion != Degeneracy is a claim disproven by a religious institution aiding degenerates who are *part of the organization*

@Beemann SJWs hate Christians, dork. The anti-religious movement is part of SJWism.

And so @Beemann doesn't even understand basic science, and STILL cannot just ACKNOWLEDGE the facts laid out.

"because a group is opposed to me, nothing I do is ever comparable to them"
wew

Whatever, enjoy your pseudoscientific hatefest. Have a good night gents, I can see facts, logic, and basic human decency don't apply to this conversation with you. Keep the hate going! Have a good night.

the lack of self awareness is astounding

You mean the "atheists" that decided to drop one religion in favor of another?
I doubt you gonna find many of those in here, if any at all.

@tritrium No, just the ones who joined the capital-A Atheist Movement. M ost atheists are too smart to joint hat I think.

But they've had disproportional influence thanks to being propped up by MSM and other sources the last 10 years.

Hold on a second

IT's not a big deal, they're waning.

Here's something i tell religious people often, because they always bring it up:

Being an atheist doesnt make u immune to stupidty.

@tritrium Well I certainly agree with that, having been an atheist decades myself. 😉

Ive banged the drum for years against religion and creationism.

@tritrium "Religion and creationism" -- wow.

Yeah it used to be a big problem
