Angry Atheist Has Her Say

[Jeremiah]

It helps some surrender their desires of greed power and control which is the main cause of wars remember.

"which is the main cause of wars remember."

You don't have a clue what the main cause of war is.

Sure I do. Well that settles that!

Reading the rant I'm reminded that sometimes I get angry when people just go on and on. Fortunately, it's the internet and I can close that tab.

I'm at the opposite spectrum. With all that is going on in the world I wouldn't have been surprised by MORE stuff in that post.

And inspires others to bomb and murder in the name of whatever god is popular where they happen to live.

I wonder what drives people to want to make others serve there God if it is not out of wanting to control???

This is why I am not for religion or religious laws and I am for those who have surrendered there sense of needing to control out of humility.

Jesus was hard on the religious crowd also. Isn't that so ironic?

No, I am pretty certain you don't. I would imagine there is a lot more involved to war then just power and greed. Since war is waged by the masses, who will, mostly likely, never see the spoils of war, I have doubt to it being the "main" cause.

Although, I am sure there has been research into it and now that I think about, it might be an interesting read.

Arrogance. Religions expect others to follow their way, if they don't they're ostracised and even killed for using their own head instead of being another sheep in the flock.

People come to my house and tell me to accept God, it doesn't get more arrogant than that. These are the same people that probably consider atheists angry for not listening to them preach their garbage.

There are four main wants in human nature that thoughts and feelings progress from.
Its the want to control. want of survival. want of approval, and want to be separate.
Somewhere that cause of war has to fit in?

Here is does get more arrogant.

They want the LAW to enforce my belief in their garbage.

That is nice and all, but I think I'll just turn to my local bookstore for this one. Where I can get books written from actual research on the topic.

You can start here. His pyramid is still the standard for assessing motivation.:yes:

If you don't think wars are about power, greed, and control I will listen to what you have to enlighten us.
I guess you might say oil but that would be greed, power and control. You might say getting rid of a dictator but that would be power and control.
They are the main reasons I see anyway.

"will listen to what you have to enlighten us."

Unlike you I am not omniscience, I have to do research to reach understanding. But your conclusion makes little sense for the reason that I already pointed out.

Thanks, I'll make note of the name and check him out.

I tried to read it but too much cursing for me, I had to stop. I don't want to read trash like that.

Potty words cause you to collapse into the fetal position?
