The atheist crusades must stop!

Post Reply New Topic

I'm an agnostic who is becoming curious about faith/religion/the supernatural. I think anytime someone beats ideas down because they can't understand them, or even disagree with them, it shows immaturity. Therefore, this thread appeals to me. It will inevitably and sadly turn into another forum for the thrashing-of-any-person-who-suggests-they-might-have-an-iota-of-belief-in-spirituality.


That is why....THE LAST PERSON TO POST BELIEVES IN PSYCHIC VAMPIRES

That is exactly what I mean. Thanks for proving my point.

Yeah, exactly. Though we did recently have an agnostic missionary who believed that everyone who disagreed with him was insane... dogmatic agnosticism is a novel and amusing thing.

And seriously, you mean you guys don't believe in psychic vampires? All right then, we'll see how funny you think it is when one of them is sucking your blood while reciting your life story to you.

Personally I think AG is a pyschic vampire! anyone got a virtual stake.

I'm not misperceiving agnosticism, Jesus Christ I was just joking.

I didnt realise that christians were the only ones with the right to crusade.

Me? Well, um... I guess that means that the last person to post believes in me. GO ME!! ! WOOT!!

i realize that but many people aren't.

Religion, by its very nature, is both judgmental and divisive. It's all about determining who is "right" and who is "wrong" and bases this determination on which religion they espouse and whether or not they even have a religion in the first place.


Religion is meant to be taken literally, else people risk apostasy (a sin), heresy (another sin), and hypocrisy (yet another sin).


As do dogmatic, fanatical religionists.


By condemning the questioning of religion, blind faith becomes the only option.


Just like Christians, Jews, and Moslems, perhaps?


The demand for evidence promotes investigation; and investigation increases knowledge. I am open to the examination of evidence that affirms the validity of religious dogma. So ... Evidence, Please?


Having been a seminary student ... a college graduate ... a world traveler ... a relief worker ... a homeless person ... a military veteran ... a church elder ... a construction worker ... a laboratory researcher ... a farm worker ... a published writer ... a video production assistant ... an embassy courier ... if all that doesn't qualify a person to draw his own conclusions about what is sending this world "to Hell in a hand basket," then I don't know what will.

Religion is ruining everything through its members' dogmatic adherence to myth and superstition, and their contempt of science-based knowledge and understanding. Religious people are teaching their children to hold fast to their primitive beliefs in the face of conflicting scientific discoveries. Religious leaders are preaching intolerance of anyone who follows alternative lifestyles. Religious wars are being fought with guerilla and terrorist tactics in the name of one perverted ideology or another.

It is not faith itself or the object of that faith, but the religion that is constructed around that faith in order to justify the immoral acts of the self-righteous members of that religion as they pursue their own selfish goals in the name of something holy that is being attacked.

Technically even christians shouldn't be crusading ("He who lives by the sword dies by the sword")...

No ... he who lives by the sword gets shot by those with more advanced technology.

That's right, we patented the crusade long ago, and all these other groups are infringing on our patent rights.

And he who lives by more advanced technology also gets shot by more advanced technology

Christians do a lot of things they technically should'nt

... until eventually everyone dies.
