I'm an atheist and proud of it. The lack of any good evidence for Yahweh or Allah or Zeus or Vishnu or Quetzalcoatl means I'm not buying it.

"Young and Dumb".
I like this. The only reason why there's so many older religious people is because they're hoping to hell that in a few years, when they "go", that there's something other than nothing there for them. I don't think they can accept the belief that there's nothing there.
So can we label these people "Old And Trying To Make Up For Every Bad Thing They've Ever Done"?
Personally, i don't believe in anything more "spiritual" than a human. IMO, thinking there's a spirit looking down on us is equivalent to a 4 year old thinking there's a monster in his or her closet. No proof. A crazy story where 4 guys could have been smoking up and just writing their hearts out. Just seems a hell of alot more logical to me.
Another thing i find funny is when you ask church officials the question "why do bad things happen to good people?" They respond "it's the will of god" or something similar. No, fuck that shit. What a cop out.
All the church scandals simply solidifies (sp) my beliefs. God's "messengers of his word" rape little boys. Yeah, that's what god wants, right? :wtf:
And i'm not ignorant about Christianity. I've read the bible and i went to a Catholic high school. Religion turns me off BIG TIME.
I also like those gung ho Christians with bumper stickers all over their car, and the Jahova's Witnesses that show up to my house every few weeks. Yeah, thanks but no thanks weirdos.
i would say that you're greatly right! lol seriously if we have to be really objective, there's the same chance of having something or nothing after death. But i would say personnaly this be more rallistic of the "empty" theory. Also, some religions like christianisism don't deserve to have i place in the hunt for the truth of the death because of what they did to other humans
Last time I checked, religion was a very complicated thing. . .Quote:

I believe in god... I dunno why... I just feal it. Even tho sometimes I doubt his existance... but what do I do when I am scared shitless? I pray to god.. so thats why I believe in god. you may not agree that there is a god and thats ok just dont hate on me because I believe in god.. we all have are beliefs... plus also i believe in god because weed and the nature around us is just so BEAUTIFUL and I just think some type of good god created all this for us.. I just dont understand the Pain part of life and why would god lets it happen.. really frustrates me inside that sometimes thinking about this...
i am omnitheist.
very pagan like, could be considerably Buddhist, but it is a philosophy more than anything else.
Apostles' Creed:)
Kind of the same here. I'm religious but i'm a Pagan, so i don't like to classify it as a "religion" because it's not organized and such..Quote:
