Religion is a form of insanity.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

People get classed as insane for claiming to be dogs, cats ect.

 

 

 

Christianism is just an "Accepted" form of insanity since you wont get locked up for it.

when your dead and in heaven there is nothing you could want that is wrong

when your dead and in heaven there is nothing you could want that is wrong

 

 

 

That means there's nobody in heaven then. Everyone breaks the rules sometimes. We call that human nature.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

But really, if I could chose, I really wanna go to Hell. ^^

what i ment is that once your in heaven you can't want anything wrogn.. or what you want can't be wrong..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

i think the list of things that can keep you out of heaven can be counted on less then half a hands worth of fingers...

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

but i think everyone will have a time to learn from there mistakes once there

As I told you before: I'm not a christian, muslim, jew or whatsoever. I'm a pagan so there's no god, heaven or hell for me. Easy as that. 8)

 

 

 

Besides, why should I fear something that doesn't even exist?

Thats something youll Never know :wink: :?

[____]

Short answer: No.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Long answer: Basically it comes down to, man created god(s) as a means to explain why, and how, some things happened. And as the times changed, people got smarted, and discoveries came about that "go against" the grain so to speak. At least at the time. So yea, no god(s), just a means to justify what we don't yet understand.

[jammy316]

i dont believe in god, but i dont not believe in god either. i dont bother to choose either way.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I'm with Indy on this one, too many people seem to put throughtout on the matter when its more to the point, I don't really bother to think about it. If he does, good for him, if he doesn't, nice blagging from the guy who wrote it.

 

 

 

Its a topic to get confused on and for really bother not worth it.

[Pyro]

I stopped believing in god at roughly the same time as I started to view the world with the eyes of a sceptic. I guess that was when I was around 7-8 years old. However, I have always been a member of the church against my will (no, I didn't suffer because of it...). Untill today, as I have now officially left the church. None of my tax-money will now go to religious fanatics, and it makes me feel good. The reason I actually could be arsed leaving the church was because I read an article about pro-choice people and realized I was superior to them and didn't want to be part of the same faith.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

So no, I am not religious, nor agnostic. I know that there is no god.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are some positive aspects of religion though, so it still has some purpose. For example, some christian articles/books that are meant to be serious are completely hillarious. Not to mention the fact that it's funny beyond words to piss religious people off now and then, which I hope this post did.

[insane]

I was superior to them and didn't want to be part of the same faith.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

There are people at my school that I am undoubtedly smarter than. Does that mean I don't want to be part of the same school? No, that would be ridiculous. Also in my opinion claiming you are superior than someone shows an attitude that I feel is a very inferior attitude. It's all based on your perception of what makes a person superior; and I can tell you right now, almost everyone I know don't see this attitude of self-superiority as a good thing.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I know that there is no god.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

And I know that there is a God. Whoopee.

While I agree, I think that it is sad that instead of trying to do something these problems, you'd rather sit on the sidelines and throw insults at them. That's hardly making a positive difference.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Not to mention the fact that it's funny beyond words to piss religious people off now and then, which I hope this post did.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

This just goes to prove my point above. If you really enjoy insulting people and pissing them off, then more power to you, I guess. But can you really look upon your actions and call them good, and expect people to agree?

You conveniently left out the part of religion making better people, something science and your petty insults could and will never do.

Better people? Eh what planet are you from? You mean if you have a religion you are good?

 

 

 

Well, take christianity for example:

 

 

 

What about the crusades? Killing people in the name of god IS NOT GOOD!

 

 

 

What about the witchprosecutes? Burn them at the stake because you were scared!?

 

 

 

Killing indians, because they had a copper-colored skin.

 

 

 

THAT is far from good in my eyes!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Muslims:

 

 

 

They don't even know how to treat a woman right.

 

 

 

They kill animals when a new muslim is born :evil:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Jews:

 

 

 

Annexed IsraÃÆÃâÃâël because the bible said that they belong there. :?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Think twice before you say that religion makes good people. Religion only makes foolish and naive people in my eyes...

Then why is it that I remain happy simply by knowing that there is no god, that this life is all we get and that everyone should look out for themselves? I have never been depressed, and I have never had to ask myself any of the difficult questsions of life. I already have my answers. As for the other things you said, I do not think of myself as a saint and hence I will simply enjoy not being a good person instead of trying to become one.

[Barihawk]

Gyr, you are looking at the far extreme parts of religion. Today, in this world, most religious people are much better off morally than non-religious.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Unless of course you look at extremists like Al Queda or Christian pro-life people BURNING clinics (I am pro-life, but I would not go militant).

Have you not been reading my posts?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Answer me this one question - do you blame aerodynamics when an airplane crashes - No, you do not. So don't blame religion, when people misuse it. What about the holocaust, communist atheist regimes, these are examples of atheists doing bad things. But am I going to blame atheism? No, I am not.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

You mean if you have a religion you are good?

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

No, I mean that if people truly follow their religion, then they will become good people. Bad actions are not a result of religion, they are a result in spite of religion.

Happiness != goodness. I'll bet Hitler was really happy after the first millionth Jew was murdered.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I do not think of myself as a saint and hence I will simply enjoy not being a good person instead of trying to become one.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I guess that you mean insulting people who are trying to make a difference is how you enjoy not being a good person?

[Pyro]

That may very well be your opinion, but it isn't mine. There is no such thing as good people, there are just people who like to think of themselves as better than others. People such as you and me. As for the Hitler comment, if fits in pretty well considering a lot of people here claim to be pro-life, so I won't dismiss it as nonsense (w00t, flamebait!).

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I guess that you mean insulting people who are trying to make a difference is how you enjoy not being a good person?

Yes, that's the gist of it. I don't want the difference most Christians do.

well said merciful..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't think you need religion to be a good person, thats the point of free will..

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Sticking to religion is basically just a handrail in life, guiding you in the right direction, most people only obiding by it because of the belief they'll go to another world when you die.. Or just believing becuase they were born into a certain family.. You wouldn't find Osama Bin laden's child becoming a strong Catholic.. :roll:

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

I don't need religion, and neither does anyone else in the world.. If Heaven exists then theres no reason why I wouldn't be allowed if I've lived a good life...

However, an atheist cannot ever be a good person if his beliefs are true. Without an eternal, external standard (God) that determines true good and evil, no person can be truly good. There is no real morality, only made-up, subjective rules. In a materialist worldview, who's to say that feeding the homeless is any better than slaughtering and eating them? Both are simply forms of matter and energy moving around; there's no real difference between good and evil.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Conclusion: It is inconsistant for an atheist to claim to be a good person.

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Why does anyone wanna go to heaven anyway? Hell sounds a lot nicer to me. It's nice and hot there, you can do whatever you want without someone telling you it is wrong and you are immortal! :D

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

In the Christian view of things, God is the source of all things good. Happiness is a good thing. Those in Hell are completely cut off from God because they chose to deny him. If happiness is a good thing, and those people have rejected the source of all good things and been totally separated from him, then they can have no happiness. I believe that this is the true terror of the Christian version of Hell, and that the Bible's imagery of flames and burning sulfur and darkness are metaphors for how horrible it is.

Science tends to make people more intelligent. More intelligent people tend to be more aware of the world around them, and more considerate; i.e. good.
