Nobody except family members of a victim hates a terrorist for very long. A terrorist is like a rock in the road. The rock might give your car a flat tire. You might be angry at the rock and the fact that you hit it. But in the end, you push the rock out of the way, change the tire, and go on with your life. Perhaps you will pressure your government to get rid of the rocks in the road, and the terrorists, before it happens again.

Maybe god loves to have many atheists to burn in hell, so he makes many deliberately.


I had to do a double-take here -- this totally looked like something BADecker would have written.

I like our brave soldier of god (he can even take a joke without losing his head; he deserves to go to heaven; too bad, there isn't one), but I take that as an insult.  Wink

Of course, as an atheist, I couldn't never believe on what I wrote.

But anyone that believes on an omniscient god have to accept that he knew exactly how we would be when he (allegedly) created us.

So, god would be creating conscientiously and deliberately atheists.

We could say that god was doing that in order to use atheist as an example to teach a lesson to theists.

But since god could create good theists that would never need any burning of atheists to be good theists, the only rational explanation to someone that accepts the premises that god exists and is omniscient would be that god is a sadist that loves to burn unnecessarily atheist in hell.

Free will is incompatible with the omniscience of god.

If he knows the future, he knows what we are going to do and, therefore, everything we do is already determined.

Determined by god, since he created (allegedly) us exactly as we are and determined to do what he knew we would do.

Of course, all of this only points out that there is no god and that, anyway, logically, he could never be omniscient and good at the same time, taking in account how bad the world and humans in certain situations can be.

But this is a dilemma theists have been trying to deal with (and failing miserably) for centuries.

Theist failure isn't in explaining. Theist failure lies in their inability to get atheists to look at and understand how it works. Of course, this is only because the atheists CHOOSE to NOT look.

Take a look at https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=1221052.msg15839622#msg15839622, and think about it. If you take the time to truly think about what is written there, you will come to understand the weakness of mankind, the strength of God, and the fact that mankind has limited free will, while God has unlimited free will.

Free will in mankind is free only in one little area. And it is only partially free in this area. This area has to do with the strength of faith that a person has in God and the salvation He provides.

God looks at this free will in every person, and examines how the person uses it. Then He goes back to the Beginning of the universe, and tweaks cause and effect in everything, to match changes in the little piece of free will faith in God or not, that each person uses, so that results of that free will are effected in everything.

Mankind totally, completely and entirely underestimates the strength and control and understanding that God has and uses in all things.

Secularism has been the father of tolerance with the division between government and religion.

Free thinkers, skeptics, agnostics and atheists were the main fathers of secularism.

They have been the major defenders of tolerance.

Believers have all the right to believe on whatever they want, as long as they don't try to kill, persecute, discriminate or coercively change the life of atheists.



Tolerance is a chance for mankind's salvation. God loves righteousness. God wants everyone to turn and move into righteousness. Tolerance is the time that God gives for people to change and become righteous. The only way people can do this is to accept the salvation of Jesus Christ, the Son of God. When the time is up, there is no more tolerance by God, and the people are either accepted as righteous, or destroyed.

When secular people think that they are the ones who invented tolerance, they are trying to step into the position of being like God. It won't work. The only way it works for them is if they accept and do it God's way... Jesus salvation.

People who think that the USA is a plague, are people who like slavery or don't know what freedom is all about. If the USA went away today, they would find what real slavery is about, first hand, from their government. Why? Because USA freedom is the only thing that is keeping most of the world free.

If some people know what slavery is about, because they are suffering under it first hand, they should pray that USA freedom makes it to where they are, so they can be free.

The question is why are religious wingnuts hateful ?

Uhh in case you all didn't notice Muslims are the biggest religion.
Their annual gatherings drawn more in 1 day than every religion combined could in 1 place.
And we do we see ? World wide terrorism from Muslims.

Of course it's a fraction of them with over-the-top extremist views.
I sure don't blame them all for the act of a minority.
But it is what it is people.
It's not Jehova witnesses strapping bombs on their chest and blowing up daycare's full of children.

Taliban ring a bell ?

Where the fuck does these religious wacko's get off blaming us atheists for HATE and being angry ?
Look in the mirror psycho lunatics !

And blow me with the tolerance speech.
Those global terrorist attacks are not too tolerant are they ?
And was the Christians "tolerant" during the crusades ?
Bible thumpers banging on my door telling me i am a sinner is tolerant ?
Saying online i am hate filled if i don't join your cult tolerant ?

All i have seen in my life is Religion used by people to make them feel superior.
When in fact there is NOTHING superior about them.
A mighty grand appeal don't ya think ?

And yeah of course Jeffery Dahmer found God and turned Christian.
Problem solved he repented for killing, raping and eating 28 people.

I love the banned early 90's Morbid Angel video for "God Of Emptiness"
(banned for drowning a priest in the video)
Why ?
Because it was to me like drowning a retard.
Which is a figure of speech (i had a real retarded step sister die at 12 who could not see or hear or talk)
She was like the vegetable in the Metallica "One" video.. from Justice for all..

Don't care what you all do just get out of my face about it.
Wanna be a Gay Muslim Terrorist or something ?
No problem.. you sit over there and STFU.
Don't bring your bullshit to me then blame me for it all.
Learn to keep your nose out other peoples business.

The guy at the hardware store told me that he wasn't aware of any religious wingnuts. Then I told him about you, and now he wants to join your church.

So I see 2 threads of why islam hates people or why people hate Islam. I dont see the point of such a mundane debate based on religion any debate for or against religion would be stupid. Either you are stupid to believe what a prophet / god / divine entity said or you are stupid enough to believe you can change the minds of the bleak minded people who follow such a prophet / god / divine entity.

But since its fun let me initiate my own brand of 'why do' topic.

WHY DO ATHEISTS (like me) HATE RELIGION ?

Seriously what has to happen in a person's life for them to seriously give up hope on the one true everlasting brand (of religion) which their ancestors have followed for generations.

Everyone has their own story even I have mine, so lets hear some of it.




Look boy if a single boat cant create itself and if a single match stick cant form its structure and if no engineer in the world cant create a pentagon structure like that exist in nature then how come universe came in to being itself and how come humans came in to being and if you beleive in darwins theory then you are a fool and in discovery channel did they tell you that the middle stages are missing Huh they cant prove anything that humans developed from monkeys so my boy you are wrong and your every concept is wrong


Oh yes, thanks for clearing that up for everyone...

If a boat or a match cannot create themselves... therefore god... makes sense...


The only people who do not believe in evolution are people who are ignorant of the science... It has been proven beyond a shadow of a doubt that humans and primates evolved from a common ancestor... this isn't even a debate these days, it's been proven (there is no "missing link")

The evidence for evolution is overwhelming and encompasses multiple branches of science from archeology (bones) to biology (vestigial organs) to DNA (98%+ identical), etc

Evolution has been shown to happen in laboratory experiments involving fruit flies, wasps, etc

Evolution happens with diseases all the time... do some research on the FLU virus or antibiotic resistant bacteria

All relevant branches of science agree that evolution is a fact... please at least do the smallest bit of research before offering your (wrong) opinion

It is not evolution. It is change, programmed into a complex nature, by the Programmer, God, so that when certain things happen, certain other results are achieved.

True evolution in nature is mathematically impossible. Guided evolution in the lab is creation-by-man, not evolution by nature.

Cool

now how did i guess you are an evolution denyer? wait dont tell me... its only a theory right?   if we evolved from monkeys how come there are still monkeys?  
them gosh darn dumb evil-lutionists dont know nuthin. i didnt evolve from no monkey!! GOD DID IT!  he done created everything...says so in the bible! so it must be true.


hey so what OS does your invisible  imaginary friend in the sky run when hes programming evolution ?  Ya think he prefers Windows or Mac? what app does he use?


So you really like your evolution religion! Well, I kinda like some science fiction, as well.

If you are looking for the truth about about abiogenesis and evolution, mathematically abiogenesis would be a lot easier than evolution. Both of them are mathematically so impossible that, there isn't the slightest chance that they could ever get started.

In addition, everything operates by cause and effect in nature. The only reversal we see in this is when scientists cause effect to happen in the lab before cause happens. So, it still is cause and effect.

Cause and effect means programming. And entropy means a beginning somewhere in the past. Somewhere in the past something programmed the universe to happen. The best term we have for this something is "God."

I am showing you science here. Check it out. It is the thing that works. God is real. Science proves it and nature shows it. Why are you so set on believing your imaginary evolution fiction?

TL:DW Version -- Petrified Forest Hoax!



What did he say in few words?

He said that rocks are just dead silicone life. Mountains are broken petrified trees (giant trees that were supposedly 62km tall), Mesas are chopped down giant trees.

He did have some interesting arguments when he pointed out the hexagonal structures that make up mesas such as Devil's Tower. Oh, the earth is a massive quarry according to him. He believes this because water erosion of stone, such as the grand canyon, looks like a quarry that was mined with heavy equipment. He also said that if you believe the earth is flat then you're 1/2 way there. I wonder what you have to believe to get the other 1/2?


It sounds fantastic, but there are people who believe in all this. Of course a lot is not yet clear and the secret, but it's not to the same extent.

When you extrapolate back to what the Grand Canyon looked like originally, before the erosion, it looked the way a welding arc "canyon" looks, except that its size shows that it is was done by a gigantic arc process in nature... like when planets almost collide... electric cosmos.

Gun control is for the safety of everybody. I therefore think that the law is fine with me as it is to regulate the usage and selling of guns. This may also be helpful to prevent violence and promote safety.

It is called gun control. It is really people control, so that they can be slaves to the big banking system and the one-worlders.

I just want to know if I'm the only one aware of that.
USA actually brought nothing on this last century but the destruction of the world. The whole middle east situation is entirely their fault. The overwhelming power of oil companies is their fault. The absurd market deregulation is their fault. The nonsense power of banks on the rest of the world I their fault.

But you can also add instability of south America,  consumption society, the absurd (and false) trust in a growth society.

I mean,  USA is probably the biggest mistake of France. As a French I truly apologise, we should have never sent any troops and firepower to the USA when they were at war with UK.  Sorry again people.

You are entirely mistaken. The USA is probably one of the biggest blessings in the world. Why? Because of freedom. Here's what I mean. At the core of the USA is the freedom for every person to do anything that he/she wants, as long as he doesn't hurt someone else or damage the property of someone else. The bad part in this freedom is, most Americans don't realize that they have this freedom, and some of them recognize it way too well.

What is the USA? You really can't define it with any accuracy. And it is the same with any large country. If you are a person who is looking at the good that a country does, you see good. If you are looking at the bad a country does, you see evil.

The USA is simply some paperwork... at least until you look at the people. When you look at the people, the USA is a handful of people in government who are using some treachery to harm other people, and themselves without realizing it. Here is the most important thing about USA bad. It is simply a small group of people using their freedom in a harmful way.

One of the best good things in the USA is gun freedom. Why? Because when average citizens of any country own guns, they keep their government from becoming really bad. In the case of the USA, the gun-freedom example is what is keeping the whole world as free as it is. Government leaders around the world look at gun freedom in America, and are afraid that their citizens will find out. Because of this, they don't pressure their citizens hard enough, so that their citizens get and use guns on their government for relief.

The best thing that you can do is to help average American citizens understand their freedom, and especially that they need more guns, so that they put down the bad people in American government, so that the world can become freer still. The whole world needs the absolute freedom that Americans have, with complete knowledge about that freedom. Helping American citizens gain more freedom, and more knowledge about the freedom they have, will free the whole world.

Cool

Freedom of doing whatever you want as long as it doesn't hurt anyone?
You want to kill me by making me laugh?
Everything heard of capitalism? Banking system? Subprimes ?  Wars ?

Tell that to Iraq people !  Freedom of doing whatever you want and not caring about consequences yeah!

Islam is about as far from freedom as you can get and still maintain the appearance of freedom. It took hundreds of years to make Iraq a slave to Islam. Giving them freedom isn't going to happen over night.

Of course the traditional markets are free. How are they free? Some smart people use their freedom to attempt to enslave others to the markets. If people would wake up, they would use their freedom to crash any markets they didn't like. And they do this now and again. But if they don't do this, it's because they like the markets the way they are.

Maybe and maybe not.  Even rich people could be traitors for the love of money.  Politicians are the number one traitors.  They will get the money from the government in expense of his own desire and let people suffer.  Funds that he steal should be for his fellowmen.

Some people become traitors because of extreme poverty.  They will exchange their loyalty just to feed their family.  

Here is the greatest misunderstand that most people have about America.

In some countries there are kings who rule. They are the government.

In other countries there are dictators.

Other Countries have dictatorial governments where the whole government is the dictator. This is what democracies are, more or less.

America is not a democracy, although some people are trying to get Americans to believe that it is. Well, what is America, then?

America is something different than any other nation in the world. America is a nation of kings and queens - every American is one - ruling side by side, completely sovereign and free. The biggest problem with America is that most Americans have forgotten this, or never knew. It's time for them to wake up and find out.
