Religion is like heroin, it makes you feel good by telling you what you want to hear, as for priests, thier just sick middle aged men who tell dying old women that if they do as he says they will go to a magical place for the rest of "eternity".

however, i have no right to tell anyone what to believe, just so far as they dont integrate thier beliefs into the legal system of the nation that they reside in, but hey, thats just my view on the matter.:joint:

It indeed is! I thought a belief in God implicitly factored into it. :hump: Interesting...

Definitions are funny things... I do believe in a G*D. Certainly a G*D like force created the universe. Now what that is ... I don't know.

I do know that a personal G*D ... man made in G*D's image .... that's just made up by us. That comes from a pre science era.

Every religion is a reflection of mans ego. That's one of the reasons for all the conflict.

I used to refer to god/dess as "the All" as I've always had a very Hermetic view about the concept. I found it's easier to just say "God" than "the All" when discussing with others; avoids confusion and needing to explain the "Seven Hermetic Principles"... though it shouldn't be difficult to grasp IMNSHO. :mrgreen:

So much irrefutable shit contained in this video.

This is why it's ignorant to believe in creationism.
 
why do you people sit here and argue about religion when its obvious youre not going to change each others minds. i believe in a god but if youre an atheist i dont have a problem with it. i mean people are gonna believe what their gonna believe. i dont think you will go to hell for being an atheist. for me theres enough proof out there that all of this universe could not have just exploded in existence from nothing. smoke your weed and get high off it. do you think that happened by chance if we are nothing after death than we arent any better than a fuckin termite. but if youre an atheist im not gonna sit here and dog you. each person is entitled to his own beliefs. so stop fuckin arguin and do something more productive..... like smoking a blunt

Bro, to start, a lot of these misconceptions - "something can't come from nothing" "I'm not a monkey" "this is all an accident" "your life is meaningless without God!" - have been addressed throughout this thread. Do some reading.

First off, i wouldnt call it an argument as such. Lets say debate.

Then i want to say. theres nothing wrong with debating religion, and how 'obvious' is it that peoples minds will not change. (however this really no goal of an athiest, its most probably moreso just for people to ask questions and research and research from source after source ) The truth is however, the religious dont really get involved in debates as such, as its normally through debates ideas and thoughts either come into light and are shown strong or weak and they change and move forward or die. Which most religions are oh so terrified of.

Lastly, its not religion athiests dont like as such. Only the religious that feel the need to kick its dogma into kids at a very young age. The kind of religious thats homophobic, the kind of religious that are cruel to animals, the kind of religious that are horrible to women and deem them subservient.

PS Im smoking a fat blunt right now whilsts watching a bit of Pat Condell :)
