People who pose these questions dont care
They need affirmation that its OK to bash the father.
Deep down they have a bit of faith but it isnt enough.
OK whatever go to hell.. I have no problem with this.

The Difference is:
(THE DEATH BED)

"Im sorry sir you have incurable cancer.
You have six months to live".

He who has little faith struggles and fights the
inevitable. He who knows what his future holds
excepts his fate and follows natures course.

All Im saying is.. have a peaceful death
Dont go out like a coward.

If the belief in God assists you in this
so much the better

And if the belief in an afterlife cheats you of the full sense of the tragedy and of the tremendous loss which is about to occur, it's just a matter of taste.

Why is docile acceptance of your death a good thing? I'd rather scream and rattle my cage until the reaper finally restrains me.

What do you know about it, Fred?

I was raised by a lovely protestant family, but the whole thing just didn't make sense to me so I became a closet atheist at age 9.

Age 11 I was found to have an advanced stage of cancer. They thought there was a good chance I would die. I thought it over for awhile, and the concept was really not all that terrifying to me. I was ok with it. It was my sobbing Christian mother who kept me on treatments for 5 years.

Let's hear your battle with a life-threatening illness story now, shall we?

Oh wait, I'm sorry...was that just some baseless parable to put down non-believers?

One day here, and you're the biggest jerk on these forums. Congrats.

My prayers are for your mother whos faith kept you going through what must have been horrible for her. When the reaper really comes for you, and you will know it when it happens.. may he get you quick before you have a chance to beg God for more time.

Well shucks, thanks so much but I'm not sure my mother would want your prayers. She's one of those crazy enlightened Christians who doesn't believe in inflicting violence on gays or wishing suffering or hell fire on others. Silly, ain't it?

Honor thy father and mother

may your death afford her the
opportunity to wash her hands
of the embarrasment that was
your life

Thanks, I'm getting it. His reading comprehension seems to be lacking as well. I made the mistake of assuming the first few posts of his I saw were meant to be ironic, since they did more to damage his side of the argument than support it.

..too bad there's not an ignore feature.

I find that these misotheists have the reading comprehension of a mule. Eisegesis seems to actually be their aim, since it is easier to refute what someone didn't mean rather than what they did.

WOW! If you really want to screw with this guy, tell him to read through the bible with looking for grammatical errors in mind. SO MANY contradictions. My favorite one is it is a sin to have fear, and it is also a sin to not have fear in God, so if you fear God, you are sinning, and if you do not fear God, you are sinning! And, where did God come from? People always say that God is the Alpha and the Omega, and that he has been around always, and he was the beginning. But nothing can just be without something creating it, so in theory, we should also be worshiping the creator of our creator for creating such a great creator. But then we will have to find out what came before that and so on! So I turn to things that are logical, I am an Atheist, and reject your false sense of reality you call Christianity.
