sorry, that was @Stefan Payne
Yes, that was it!
Y'know, Sam Harris is the most religious person in the Pangbourne debates
his religion is Atheism. He is more evanjelical than the Mormons
Everyone's got a religion
mine's anime thighs
```Everyone's got a religion```
Exactly my point. When you don't believe in God, your mind looks for other things to believe in. And if they aren't ment to be believed in, its a very very bad thing.
many people are ok with not knowing
I've got no idea
there could be a god of some kind
Or maybe we all originated from the big bang
Or maybe we are living in a simulation
or maybe something completely different
my religion is capitalism
```Everyone's got a religion```
I dont. That might be thing for people who "stopped beliving"🤔
But i have been atheist all my life. So no, not everyone have religion.
I think the issue here is what people define as a "relligion"
Like for example, is relligion something you hold as a standard? "I relligiously follow a certain rule"
A diety you follow? What constitutes a diety?
The lack of belief a belief?
If you want to continue this discussion further it would be wise for everyone to state what their defination of a relligion is. Or at the very least, what something has to have before you consider it relligion

There is nothing in the universe to prove that justice is real. Even when it comes to matter vs antimatter, the universe is heavily biased towards matter. But since ancient times we have upheld justice as a cardinal virtue.
Many athiests believe the failings of communism have been that bad people attempted it, not systematic.
yeah all commies are retarded.
but good old "correlation does not imply causation"
1.) I think Donald should call the Press "JJJ" from Spider-Man
2.) ```my religion is capitalism```
That is very bad as you can see in China, where they have no Religion and would sell their mother for Money...
selling your mother for money isn't capitalism. it's just common sense.
some people preach atheism as if it's just another religion
>selling your mother for money is just common sense.
WTF
>some people preach atheism as if it's just another religion
they are not atheist by the defenition...
having a mother is not a good investment
if you can find someone who buys, then it's just common sense to sell
a lot of people with mothers end up having to pay a lot to keep them alive in an elderly home
lol
*it must suck to be unwanted accident kid with no father.*
i imagine it does
Well, I refer peoples to JBP. you may say you are not religious but I'd wager you live your live pretty closely to a religious ideal. actions do speak louder than words.
well what if the ideals originate from something different than religion in the first place?
maybe we're drawn to religious ideals for a reason
because we already resonate with them
we just need some help with having more consistency with applying them to our life, and having the principles formulated
