    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    I'll jot down the authors and books on my phone so I can look for them the next time I'm out at the bookstore.

    Isn't it true that the more a group tries to censor it's members, the more suspect it is?

    You obviously have nothing to share. Just another theist dipping into the debate section to give their OPINION and then immediately ducking out without backing it up.

    Is there an afterlife?

    This thread is about the existence of an afterlife, in the DEBATE forums. You stated your position: you believe there is an afterlife. I stated my position: I don't believe in an afterlife. I gave a reason why I don't, because I don't see any evidence to support it. Now it's your turn to support...

    Isn't it true that the more a group tries to censor it's members, the more suspect it is?

    I try to be honest and only claim to KNOW things that I truly KNOW. I don't KNOW how the universe came into existence (if it had a beginning) or if it has or even needed a creator. Therefore I don't make claims about such things. Since you are a Christian you believe that your god created the...

    Is there an afterlife?

    Simply responding to YOUR posts, in which you seemed insulted that I accused you of belonging to the Christian religion. Now, please respond to my question, why do you believe there is an afterlife?

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    Have you read them? Can you site some of their evidence/arguments?

    Is there an afterlife?

    And I asked you why you believe that there is an afterlife? Yes, death comes for us all, we've been over this already. Lol, are you seriously getting mad at being called a Christian? Do you refuse to accept Jesus Christ as your personal savior? Do you think praying is for chumps? Do you...

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    Perhaps, but why is one religion any more legitimate than another when none of them have ANY evidence to back them up? I've never heard a theist give a good reason for that question.

    Isn't it true that the more a group tries to censor it's members, the more suspect it is?

    So being honest and admitting you don't know something is worse then pretending that you know something when you really don't?

    Isn't it true that the more a group tries to censor it's members, the more suspect it is?

    You pretty much nailed it.

    Is there an afterlife?

    Jesus clearly said he came to turn people against one another, that even if your spouse or child didn't share your believe in him that you should shun them. Doesn't sound very loving to me. Jesus spoke of the rich man who went to hell for not being a generous person in life and wishing he had...

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    If a god exists it gave us (most of us, I hope) the capacity for critical thinking. Secondly, most if not all cultures regard honesty as a positive trait (and I agree). I don't think it's honest to apply critical thinking to most things but spare certain favored things/people from it. Doesn't...

    Is there an afterlife?

    ?! Since when did Christianity stop being a religion? You mean death right? Yes, everyone dies, that isn't an unknown. There is no evidence to support any kind of afterlife. Therefore, claims about the afterlife are based solely on wishful thinking. I can't see how anyone can develop a belief...

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    I'm willing to listen, and have made my expectations clear. If you have rational arguments and (preferably) evidence to back up your position it is not a lost cause to argue your position. The problem for some theists is they don't even have a rational argument for their position. Their idea of...

    Is there an afterlife?

    Ah, the old Christian tactic of trying to scare people into believing your religion. If you're fine with people latching onto your religion out of fear, what's that say about your religion and it adherents in general? Makes your religion seem shady to me.

    When God Created

    Like I said, you are basically interpreting things in the bible as you want. Have fun. I'm not obligated to play along.

    Is there an afterlife?

    I've never understood why theists like you quote the bible to atheists like me after I've clearly stated that I think the bible is nothing more than mythology. Its like you saying that you don't believe in scientology to a scientologist and then they start quoting dianetics to you. They would...

    When God Created

    The bible simply doesn't support your views. The bible clearly explains that god is an entity separate from humanity that humanity is to obey and worship. Yet you say humans are god while quoting from the bible. You can twist what the bible says to fit your personal religion if you want, but I'm...

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    You can't be argued out of a position you weren't argued into to begin with. I've lost track of how many times I've watched theists perform mental gymnastics to force information to support their beliefs. I've lost track of how many times theists on this forum suddenly go silent and withdraw...
