Atheism

[heidiramma]

I prefer the whole "you god-thinking people are funny, sometimes crazy, sometimes heart-felt and entertaining" (awe shucks). But keep your views outta my mail box, out of my ears, and out of my face. You believe, I don't, that's fine with me.

I don't jam godlessness down your throat and wage fights/wars/agendas based on my beliefs, so please don't use your religion to attack lifestyles/decisions/etc. of myself or others.

Bygones man, bygones. To each his own. Your Buddha, your God, your Allah, my huge insignificant butterfly in the sky. No right, no wrong.

Better yet - argue about some subject we both have beliefs in - use that to justify why 'this or that' is incorrect if you have to. Backing arguements with a rational that only you believe is a crappy way to get your point across or convince me.

... your Allah ......

Ah my own personal god. Have you been on paradise lost? If you have then you probably believe in allah as well.


dear allah, i dedicate this send to you. amen.

It seems that Atheists argue against the organized religions and its negative impacts more than the possible existence of a God.

alan is an atheist pah rum pum pum pum
saxman acts like one but he is too dum

and he could kick them all right in their bums

rum pum pum pum

why waste time and energy on arguing the possible existance of a god? Then I really wouldn't be arguing with anybody, merely agreeing with the other 'godders' out there, just wondering which religion to choose. Other people are out there doing the theological debate, I got more things to do with my time on earth than 'join the herd' as it runs in circles.

My apartment in New Orleans was in an old farmhouse and the wrap around porch was right against the sidewalk. One Sunday morning at 7 a.m. some Jehova's Witnesses came up to the fence, my dogs went fucking nuts, and after yelling, "Hello!" for a couple of minutes, one of them started beating on the iron railing with an empty beer can. I had probably been asleep for three hours before my dogs woke me up ten minutes before these fuckers showed up and I'm pretty sure I was still drunk from being out until four in the morning. I could kind of see out of the front of the apartment from the bedroom and I knew they were back (they'd been coming regularly with their fucking Watch Towers for a couple of months). I lurched out of bed, naked, hungover (probably still drunk), and unwashed, rubbed my hair into a wild explosion, lit a cigarette, walked out into the pack of madly barking dogs (by then my neighbor's dogs had joined in so there were five dogs losing their minds over these people beating on the porch with a can) and announced, "Welcome to the Church of Satan! Services begin at 10pm! Please return then!" I bowed, almost losing the towel I had covered myself with, and collapsed back into bed. Oddly enough, they never came back.

Nice one alan.

I was thinking this morning of atheist ways to celebrate traditional christian events. Its always difficult to deal with the family otherwise.

Baptism is a good example. What's a good way to celebrate the birth of a child without a baptism?

Also, when I think back to some of the baptisms I've seen, I wonder if that's where they got the idea for waterboarding?

[pigsteak]

shamis, why not celebrate the "christian" event?
why not protest by going to work on christmas? oh, you want the benefits without the responsibilities of being a decent human being, smiling at your relatives, and letting them enjoy the season.

the more I think about it, you atheists are bigger hypocrites than the religious right...you'll take the paid time off from work, you'll gladly accept the gifts, you'll gladly pour your dollars into the economy...have some backbone and go to work December 25th you losers.

invent your own freakin' atheist holiday.

[krampus]

What does christmas have to do with religion anyway? Cut the gifts out, still hang with the fam and you can still have a reason to get off from work.
