The ATHEISM Thread

But there's certainly a point where labeling yourself a Democrat becomes in appropriate, especially if you disagree with some of the core tenets of the Democratic Party.

You can't just wash it away by claiming you can call yourself whatever you want.

As with most things, there's an ideal and there's a functional proximity to the ideal. Where that proximity begins/ends will always be up for debate, but 100% compliance with the ideal usually isn't necessary.

That's really smart. And for once, I don't think anyone who knows their history can reasonably complain about the Nazi comparison!

Well, it's not calling/comparing anyone to nazis here, just using a comparison to illustrate a concept, so it's less stupid. Still overly inflammatory, given that most religions can't be called anywhere as bloody as a philosophy.

One day, a man went to visit a church, He got there early, parked his car and got out. Another car pulled up near the driver got out and said, "I always park there! You took my place!" The visitor went inside for Sunday School, found an empty seat and sat down A young lady from the church approached him and stated, "That's my seat! You took my place!" The visitor was somewhat distressed by this rude welcome, but said nothing. After Sunday School, the visitor went into the sanctuary and sat down. Another member walked up to him and said, "That's where I always sit! You took my place!" The visitor was even more troubled by this treatment, but still He said nothing. Later as the congregation was praying for Christ to dwell among them, the visitor stood up, and his appearance began to change. Horrible scars became visible on his hands and feet. Someone from the congregation noticed and called out, "What happened to you?" The visitor replied, as his hat became a crown of thorns, and a tear fell from his eye, "I took your place."

There is a greater existence according to common sense. Do you think the universe created itself? How and why? If you cannot answer, you MUST turn to Christ!

Hitler's existence is a questionable concept that is as of yet unproven?

I mean, I expected you to answer with the Crusades or something, to which I would have said that's why I said "most", but I don't even know how to respond to this.

I just don't see enough atheists telling tales of wonder like the former, or saying forceful statements like the latter. "If you throw a ball in the air, and it comes down, you MUST reject gods!"
