    • The brainwashed, ignorant, racist, pedo groomer and dull-minded Christians could never comprehend any of this.utopian
    • They don’t care because it is different because their god is the actual literal Godnb
    • As opposed to Allah who is a figurative god?palimpsest
    • It's the same god. The mosque near me actually has 'in god we trust' on the side of it.PhanLo
    • It's not the same god, each god has a different identity & different rules. Each god is the actual literal god for those that believe in it.palimpsest
    • You could say that all Christians believe in the same god and even that Jews, Christians & Muslims worship the same god.palimpsest
    • But they don't have the same understanding of god, therefore it is not the same god in practice.palimpsest
    • If you don't believe in the Trinity you don't believe in the same god.palimpsest
    • ...But I bet they're more than happy to receive Christmas gifts though! ;)microkorg
    • Titus 2:13, Matthew 28:19palimpsest
    • God differs from person to person. As many interpretations of that sick, stupid fucking bitch ass cunt in the sky as there are grains of sand.monospaced
    • Just more proof that he can’t possibly exist. Any discussion of literal or not just makes you all look like idiots.monospaced
    • Indeed.palimpsest
    • Religions, as birds, aren't real.palimpsest
    • @mono Oh boy, here comes the militant atheist that actually gets bothered by people needing or wanting to believe in something.garbage
    • Tell us you were an altarboy without telling us you were an altarboy.palimpsest
    • Ha, I actually was going to go to seminary when I was a kid, and taught classes in church. I've also been an atheist for about two decades.garbage
    • remind me again, what's history, what are nations, races, cultures?shapesalad
    • It's just that mono and your notes lack intellectual and philosophical curiosity. Hate isn't a necessary component of atheism.garbage
    • "That sick, stupid fucking bitch ass cunt in the sky" sounds like something a high-school senior would type because the idea of God triggers them.garbage
    • Honestly it comes across as an agnostic take, because if God doesn't exist, what is occupying his mind.garbage
    • And proselytizing atheists share a core value with Xian and Muslim extremists: extreme disdain for anybody who doesn't see the world their way.garbage
    • "That sick, stupid fucking bitch ass cunt in the sky" is a representation of god.palimpsest
    • It’s not a kosher thread until it’s monosplain’dGnash
    • He gets triggered by the weirdest shit. I don't believe in God, but it's pretty easy to understand that because the vast majority of the planet does..garbage
    • ..believe in a God as a concept that has a direct influence on a non-believers lives. Not making any attempt to try to comprehend that is self-harm.garbage
    • And for the overwhelming majority of people, their faith is what helps them get through their day. Extremists in any form are toxic.garbage
    • Queue mono calling me a "retard" like some grade-school child in 3, 2, 1..garbage
    • Oh please. Passing off religious bullshit as intellectual curiosity is the most disingenuous thing I can imagine. I just don’t believe in the supernatural claimmonospaced
    • I can talk about the claims people make about gods and it doesn’t make them real. What a stupid fuck argument.monospaced
    • Just because I can’t stand that so many are brainwashed doesn’t diminish my argument. Pose an argument if you want to get intellectual. You won’t of coursemonospaced
    • I can comprehend that there ar many religious people who have infected their disease into normal life. I don’t ignore this unsolicited influence.monospaced
    • Saying that it’s self harm that I don’t recognize this makes no sense whatsoever. Just because I don’t believe the claim isn’t a bad thing.monospaced
    • And assuming I don’t recognize this is really a you issue, because it simply isn’t true. If you want to get intellectual I welcome it.monospaced
    • Fact is, to date, not a single person in human history has ever provided any real evidence to back up a supernatural religious claim. Not once.monospaced
    • That isn’t a militant standpoint. It’s just a fact. It’s just reality. The place where I operate. Convince me of something and I will believe it. Happily.monospaced
    • And don’t get so triggered if I call god names. If we are to believe his character as written in the Bible is true, then he deserves it. I welcome argument.monospaced
    • I would respond, but you did it for me by flailing away like a child. And again, to make it clear: I am an atheist.garbage
    • But your vitriol really gives off vibes of "That boy needs Jesus". If you wanna swim philosophically, make a thread.garbage
    • "Any discussion of literal or not just makes you all look like idiots."

    • Momo done did it again.palimpsest
    • Please stop acting like faith is in the realm of intellectualism. Or that utility is a reason for belief. I can back up my position maturely and intellectually.monospaced
    • You seem to think that just because you can point out I am using curse words that it somehow diminishes my position. That isn’t intellectual in the slightest.monospaced
    • What I am pointing out is that we are all discussing god and religion, you included.
      Of course your opinion is the only one that's intellectually valid.
      palimpsest
    • We all are just idiots.palimpsest
    • I’ll happily discuss this at a higher level. My position still stands that it’s ultimately flawed, naive thinking to belief any god has a place in our reality.monospaced
    • And to the point of this post, I have to deal with it and it is annoying. To me. I am frankly sick of religion being taken seriously at a public or gov level.monospaced
    • And we've come full circle. I'm not surprised you can't see this.palimpsest
    • So engage with my points, please. If your only issue is my method of delivery then that’s a separate issue.monospaced
    • @pal, you’re assuming I didn’t see this? Of course I do. garbage is only concerned with my use of language. Not an actual discussion.monospaced
    • I’m bringing it back because he derailed it completely just to criticize me and fail at discrediting my pov.monospaced
    • Even if I admit that faith is helpful to some, which I do, we all must agree that is a garbage justification for faith in the first place. It doesn’t beg respecmonospaced
    • @mono focusing your venom on the dogma of christianity is a worthy pass time. The sins of the organised church are ever present. But that isn't god or even God.Morning_star
    • So catholics and protestants believe in different gods too?
      Unitarians and methodists? Jesuits and Baptists?
      Khurram
    • Because they all disagree on the precise nature of this "first cause" sentience.Khurram
    • Or maybe it's just one particular religion excluded from your grand Abrahamic-family of true faiths.Khurram
    • pure mental wankery.Khurram
    • Fun fact - Arab speaking Jews and Christians have been referring to God as "Allah" well before Islam:https://www.th...Khurram
    • https://www.thegospe…Khurram
    • Because it literally means, "God", in another language. Shocking!Khurram
    • Hindus call "him" Brahma (because it's invariably him) which is a sanskrit word, colloquially "ooper wala" - which means, the man upstairs. The one who is aloneKhurram
    • So I guess we're all praying to the same god.palimpsest
    • yes Wealthycles the god of money_niko
    • anyone fancy a pint?MrT
    • @mono Your reply got lost in the stacks. If you think my concern is your use of language, you're still wrong.garbage
    • I was saying your stance and reasoning is very NAM, and smacks of philosophical boredom.garbage
    • A Hegelian stance would be that God does exist to you, because your histrionics are fueled by the beliefs of others.garbage
    • And it's embarrassing for peaceful atheists, much like jihadist are for Muslims, or Christofascists are for normal Christians.garbage
    • I don't know what to tell you. You just seem really angry, and I hope you have a good day.garbage
