When a religious story informs you that "they", "them", "those", "heathens", "unrighteous" are condemned and must die, will you obey the illogical untrue indoctrinating story just because it is a religious story and the truth and should be obeyed as such?

[organofcorti]

Ah, that's right. For you everything is a religion, isn't it? Jobs, philosophies, sports, habits -- anything anyone spends time on is a religion to you.

Can you even name some belief or idea that can't fit your concept of a religion? I can't.

Things become religions for people when they place improper belief in them. When people consider fictitious or potentially fictitious things as truth, and then start to adamantly believe and trust in them as truth, that's when they have a religion going for themselves.

Any and all ideas that a person has, that he doesn't start to adamantly believe in or trust as truth, may not be a religion for him. For example. A beautiful butterfly may cross one's path. It might intrigue the person for a moment. But then the person goes on his way and forgets about it except to mention it to a few friends. No butterfly religion.

A lepidopterist on the other hand, has made butterflies his religion or one of them.

Interestingly, most people would call a lepidopterist a vocation rather than a religion. Is a vocation a religion in your idiolect?

No point to argue with this imbecile. By his reasoning, study of bridges is a sect of civil engineer's religion.
Never mind cosmologist studying black holes...

He redefines common English terms to fit his skewed worldview.  He is delusional and he knows it, but he tries to convince himself that he is not by inventing "new scientific" terminology and attacking people who point out obvious holes in his "biblical science".

How silly you have become. Don't you realize that anybody who studies bridges, and then adamantly believes stuff that is blatantly not true about the bridges he has studied, especially in the face of being shown that it is not true, has a religion going for himself? His religion might not be a dangerous one, he may not be harmful to himself or others, and people would not even recognize, generally, that he had a religion going. But according to the definition of religion in the dictionaries, that is what he has.

Since you like to express faith in meanings of words that are not dictionary accurate, and then pick on people who use correct definitions, everyone can tell that your formal religion must be totally wrong, just like your informal anti-dictionary religion.

I guess you missed this: Is a vocation a religion in your idiolect?

You haven't learned to use the dictionary, yet, have you? If a person treats his vocation as a religion, then for him it is a religion, right? By your questions, you are proving that the atheism religion is for the dimwitted.

Lots of people have great knowledge of novels/science fiction/science theory... but little knowledge of the real, and basic fact, the existence of God.

I think this sign's message is more of a jab against egotism.

[Blackmet]

They just can't understand why believers wasting their time on "useless stuff" how they think, but most of atheists just don't care about it.

The true definition of Hate  (at all its kinds) : it's the manipulation of some idiots to make them act against other idiots who will make a reaction that pushes the first idiots to act again... etc.

At the end, both idiots will die or disappear or just lose their fight and will remind about what they gained from Hate...

At the same time, the manipulators (who were sitting away and laughing becsuse of their manipulation's success) will govern both of them.

Notice: the manipulators are generally without principles (they can motivate both idiots in their fight by media, infiltrators...) and without feelings  (so they don't share any of the thoughts that they inject in the mass's heads)...
but all what they know that they have after fight their own BENEFITS.

I hope so but as long as there are people acting based on feelings and fellow without conscience... these manipulators will continue their dirty game by making the Hate as a fuel of disputes.

No "hope so" about it. Look at all the evil dictators from the 1900s. Hitler, Stalin, Mao, Pol Pot, Roosevelt, Churchill, many others. All dead. And Castro is almost gone.

[Racey]

BADecker thinks he is a manipulator, and he he is very arrogant towards others.
I am glad he is just invisible to me these days, happy not to see his posts ever again.

And why he put BAD in his name tells me he is actually a bad person, he could even be worse that that, who knows what goes through a mind like his.
Gives me the chills, just thinking about it.

Poor little sensitive Racey. Not that I am not sensitive. But poor little Racey has a hard time even looking at the truth. I prayed for you.

The concrete evidence of the quote "Ignorance is a bliss." Isn't religious people tend to be more happy and joyful?

Precisely.

Atheism is not a religion.  A-theism is simply the absence of Theism. 

That can take any number of forms.  Pretty hard to generalize, wouldn't you agree?

I am neither an Atheist nor a Theist.  I am a bot.

"I have no GOD in this fight!"   

The Atheists I know do not "hate" religion. 

Religion is simply a step along the way for the truly Enlightened.

What is a religion? A chunk of ground isn't a religion. A book isn't a religion. A religion is when a person makes something a religion in his own heart and mind.

The adamant chiming of atheists that atheism isn't a religion is itself a religion in those atheists, a religion that has as part of its doctrine and dogma, statements and beliefs that atheism isn't a religion. In part, atheism is a religion of non-religion.

All problems are human problems, even the religion ones.

In medieval times church [Christian] and state were so fused, you couldn't divide them on a hair breadth. Guess what happened then? Enlightenment happened.... lol   Scientific breakthrough after breakthrough. So church authority diminished as science showed flaws in church [Christian] worldview. State gradually became sole official tax collector (because of separation of state and church) (but not solely in actuality; church continued as well (but now on its own), more cunningly, I would say). Church "authority" kept on diminishing as science kept on progressing more and more.

The God-of-the-Gap type of belief system is in grave danger if you ask me. Better revolutionize God concept, and thereby revolutionize spirituality and piety than cling to something that will never ever be the same again - thankfully, I might add.

All problems are human problems, even the religion ones.

Actually, it is science that is in grave danger.

Science has produced many of the conveniences of life... through scientific engineering, of course. We would like science to remain so that it can produce many more good things for us.

Science is at its pinnacle, however, and beginning to crumble. Why? Simply because scientists had no way to disprove God, and the more they tried, the more they proved His existence. Scientists don't talk about this very much. But the fact is, the more science attempts to discover the great, hidden wonders of the universe, the more they prove the existence of God.

This is why science has turned to theory. In science theory, scientists put together a bunch of science facts (and sometimes non-facts) as a new way to look at the combination of facts. Then they develop a conclusion about the theory. Often this conclusion suggests that the theory is fact, even though it is not proven to be fact.

People are seeing through this science deception. They are realizing that often the so-called science fact is based on what the scientists would like rather than on the truth. Graham Hancock is one of those who has discovered this in the field of archaeology. Donald E. Scott, Ph.D., and many others are finding out that stars are electrical in nature, and not atomic. Brian Cox has shown that Quantum Mechanics is pure probability, and that it can give no proven answers answers to anything alone, because it can give completely contradicting answers to everything. And there are many more.

Science as we know it is breaking down as the source for all knowledge. Why? Because many famed scientists have built and explained science according to their hopes and dreams rather than according to the truth.

jeeezus dude, you are so full of shit its frikkin hilarious. hey, what flavour religion are you anyway? just curious cuz
i swear sometimes i think even you dont believe any of the complete nonsense you post/spout. you're just trolling us rational

oh wait! cant forget the little smiley face with sun glasses to make my post legit! here ya go... how about a couple?

Atheism is not a religion.  A-theism is simply the absence of Theism. 

A-theism! It cannot exist alone without Theism. How ironic.
