Why is that? Obviously YOU can live without religion. You and your big brain!
Yeah I can
That doesn't mean the world can follow into my footsteps
Your brain is so big you point at a statue and say "That's not real!"
Dogma can exist without a god. A world populated by atheists can be summed up adequately in an episode of South Park.
Yeah
"That person never existed he's just a figment of someone's imagination, that's why they made a statue of him because they're stupid!"
The failure is not in what we do not know, but in the fact that we are human
Take feminism for example, that is a religion in everything but name
Oh, but Christianity is worse because I watched Hunchback of Notre Dame.
lol
Actually it wasn't even an episode, I think it was a trilogy of episodes, and a damn good trilogy too.
I'm not a good person because I'm Atheist
You have to realize it's not just "the least possible evil" it's "the greatest force for good."
I don't think Christians are better or worse people than Atheists
Oh, but we can't have Christians in charge!!
Why not?
I'm not a good person because I hold positions that the grand majority of living humans would call "not good"
I hold the ad-populum in being bad.
Because I don't believe what they believe, and since I care about my freedom of thought and speech, I will fight against Christian authoritarianism, because they would restrict my freedom
Christians INVENTED your freedom.
Anyone with a dogma will want that dogma to be their basis of society.
Oh, so it's GOD who gave you your freedoms!
?
I'm an atheist, remember?
And an idiot. If your rights are not manmade, then what are they?
No one gives me freedom
I have freedom, it can only be taken from me
Not given
Then you have none.
lol
"You have no freedom if someone is bigger and badder"
They are manmade, but they have been decided over years of history, societal progression, and instinctual intuition.
We are man, we have made these concepts. Therefore they are manmade.
We are also a product of nature
So they are also natural
It seems that you argue that a christian president would automatically lead to christian authoritarianism @ETBrooD Or am I reading that wrong?
No that's not my argument
@TEABAG!!! wants straight up Christian authoritarianism installed
Well in the USA right now you cannot become president without calling yourself christian
That's part of the dogma working
