I can’t stand atheists. All they ever do is say how wrong you are for worshiping a God. God can be anything you want it to be. So the fact that you ridicule people for worshiping something is stupid. Atheist like to pick on Christians. Well if think they are wrong why the hell don’t you explain the world in a better way. Go ahead and quote Stephen Hawking on this one. Can you explain why the Big Bang theory makes more sense, if it did in the first place, than creation of all things by a God. Explain why even Stephen Hawking has stated that “God created the integers.” Go ahead look it up. It’s there. So why don’t go back to your home or where ever the hell else it is that you live, and read “A Brief History of Time.” I bet you are still on the second page. So don’t think you have even a tiniest bit of right to say that Christians and Muslims are wrong and you are right about the universe you pricks.

You know that there are over 20000 species of animals right?
please explain how noah not only gathered but stored 40000 animals on his ark.
I’m not even including the 80000 species of insects, that noah decided to gather

Its not that theres no god, its just that every single priest who ever lived is/was a rapist. I mean seriously, its like 100% rate of pedophile priest. Down with god!

You guys have no life. And besides… priests and Noah have nothing to do with god or gods… you left out ALL the other religions!
and don’t be so ignorant as to just pick on Christians… If your going to criticize people and their beliefs… be brave enough to speak about ALL of them… truth is you don’t know about all of them…
some people even believe in god/gods and don’t believe anything about Noah or go to priests.
and I will have to admit… stereotyping is ignorant.
Not stating my religious status… it really is irrelevant.

I’m an atheist. And I don’t care if you’re religious or what religion you are. Atheists aren’t, and shouldn’t be, concerned with others’ beliefs, and you shouldn’t be either. Calm down.
And yes…I do happen to live in my home.

If God and Christianity is correct, then we’re all descendants of 2 people, Adam and Eve. Hmmm.. inbred humanity? No thx. Christians are stupid. And I’m not even an atheist, i’m an apatheist. i don’t care. Even if there was a god, it wouldn’t be worthy of worship because there are many more important things in life than worshipping some deity.

People do not have the right to force their beliefs on you. If someone criticizes you for your beliefs, then stand up for yourself.
As to believing in God, I believe in higher life, but don’t believe in any of the current religions. Christianity personifies God as if He is a human being, but upon what would this be based? If God does exist, isn’t it more likely that He is so unlike us that it is not possible for the human mind to comprehend?

For starters,
Christians and Muslims ARE wrong!
If god exists then PROVE IT!

1. Noah’s Ark: Noah didn’t take ’species’ he took ‘kinds’. There are many dog species, but if he took the kind ‘dog’ which contained all the genetic variety we now see in dogs, that’s one pair. Similarly all other animals can be grouped into kinds. 1 pair of finches = all current finch variations, etc. Anyone versed in genetics can understand the concept of a proto-dog with all the current variation we see existent in their DNA.
2. In-bred criticism: Because of background radiation our DNA is constantly being damaged over time. These errors add up, but are usually in different places. Thus, the body can use a ‘good gene’ from a sexual union to replace a bad gene. Breeding within a family-group, in-breeding, makes finding a good gene harder. Now, roll the clock back a few thousand years to an existing Adam and Eve with perfect genetics, newly created by God. There would be no in-breeding effect, much less DNA errors, and the only people you -could- marry would be relatives. It would be fine.
3. “If god exists then PROVE IT!”: Fine, go try to explain the resurrection. Many skeptics who’ve set out to truly disprove Christianity ended up converting and becoming apoogists. Among them is Josh McDowell, a former atheists who did just that - set out to once and for all disprove the Bible. He read the Bible cover to cover 4 times while gathering evidence in his quest to write the book that would kill Christianity. But the evidence convinced him that Christianity is true. The evidence he was gathering to prove Christianities falsehood ended up becoming a book of evidence for why it’s true, and you can get it on Amazon, “Evidence that Demands a Verdict”.

Hi, I would just like you guys to know that god does exist.
Ummm, im not sure how to explain it to a nonbeliever. i usually tell them to look at it as an investment. You really dont know it exists until your heart is in the right spot. When you deny God, it really does seem it doesnt exist. The only thing you should wake up to is that it really is free will, which was gods greatest gift to you, yea its not that great BMW you were hoping for, but again, greed isnt a belief, its a way of living. As for proof, the bible was written by god, your mind is not intended to understand how everything just fits so well, how the planets are just positioned like that, and i mean, what is outerspace expanding into. Yes there are literary mysteries, you will never know, but I do suggest you guys learn about Fatima. Again, no scientific proof, but 70000 people saw it. And the current Vatican study of Medjugorje… I mean there are pictures of 30-40 people looking at water spilling from a statue of Jesus there. The best proof is nature itself, when you can get out of the city, with the belief god does exist, it makes you excited for what is to come. And that is the joy and hope and happiness only the true god can promise. Jesus died for us on the cross, to forgive us of our sins, he invited you to follow him and its okay to question your faith. If your a good person throughout your life, thats really, i believe all you have to do. So do this, continue not to believe, but assume his commandments, state laws and church laws are basically the same anyways in a lot of ways. But even more so, all I ask is that you dont ask questions intended to disproove him, because even theories in science are confirmed by repeatable affirmation, give god the same. He gave you more than you can contemplate. And I just want you to know that I pray for you every single night. As for Noah, I cant explain it to you, i dont know, who do you think knows the answer to that? Its a great question I admit, but its the wrong set of questions to ask. True survival, the most important, would be to ask, is it more beneficial to me to give this faith mombojumbo a chance, or is it better for me to continue my life trying to proove something I cant proove myself?

OKay, so take one Noah and use it in the literary sense then take you were created in the image of god and make it metaphorical. see people of faith usually think its the other way around. you people confuse me… and yes jesus was a man!

“I contend that we are both atheists. I just believe in one fewer god than you do. When you understand why you dismiss all the other possible gods, you will understand why I dismiss yours.”

You have to be joking.. first of all. I don’t pick on anyone besides muslims. I don’t care what you believe, but i’d like to know why you think that we have no right to think that evolution and big bang is the answer, because I know creation by something as random as a soup can is so much more likely than the big bang (because by your definition, anything can be god”)
So yeah… this soup can created me and the world around me… come on now… you are being a huge hypocrite now as you don’t know me, I don’t pick on you, I don’t care what god you believe in… you are free to believe what you will…. I am free to believe what I will… my mother believes in god, I don’t… and we still love each other…

well apart from priests raping young children, having a theory, big bang, that has some scientific evidence behind its basis is more likely than a fairy tale about some divine person creating everything. do you still believe in santa claus? how can you not of you think god created earth?

I don’t have a problem with “God” par say, but rather a problem with the idea of organized religion. I think a lot of organized religions prey on fear, hence the moniker of pious Christians: “God-fearing”. After all, the pious are not taught to love God; they are taught to fear his retribution. It’s like a fairytale to frighten Children into complete submission. Hell, God looks “Down” not “At”.
I, personally, feel we should keep our religion, or lack thereof, to ourselves and in our own homes.
Poppi on March 26th, 2009 at 2:11 pm | Link
There is no “god”. Christianity is false. The reason we have it is because the human race needed some sort of explanation to the unknown. Religions exist today because the human species is smart enough to think about these things, yet ignorant enough to make a guess as to why things are the way they are. My stance? We will never know the origin of the Earth or what happens in the afterlife, and thats it. WE JUST DONT KNOW. Accept it, don’t make a guess and then destroy the world because different religions made different equally insane guesses (Jewish-Muslim wars). To believe in God is by definition insane- that is, to truly believe in your heart that a supreme, all knowing being exists without any proof or logical reason other than “well something happens after we die” is insane. I hate to break it to ya folks, but nothing happens after you die. Because you’re dead.
alan on March 26th, 2009 at 3:31 pm | Link
Ok I gotta write in on this. Christians base most of their beliefs on the bible - so that is where you start. Look HOW it was written, WHEN it was written, read for content also. See what it says about itself, see what it says about God, see what it says about people relating to one another. Read for information.
What if after you did that you said to yourself “Well, I didn’t think about until now, but now that I HAVE READ it - I really do think it’s true” - you may be surprised.
I would rather believe in God and die to find out there is none than live my life not believing in him and then find out He was there all the time.

Every religion says only theirs is correct. Baptists say only their denomination is going to heaven, for example. Everyone hates the Jews.
How much more advanced would society be without religious fairy tales and hatred!
A lot of silly generalizations about atheists and Christians. “All they ever do . . . .” Silly. I know plenty of atheists who do a lot of other things–go to work, golf, raise families, perform charitable acts. I know priests who are not pedophiles and rapists. However, if the OP is basing his/her opinion of atheists on what is seen on the internet, then he/she might want to shut off the computer and go out in the world and meet real people, rather than a narrow group of atheists or Christians who make a hobby (or a life) out of complaining on the internet.
