Lately?
All the edgy edgers whose edges are edged are atheists around here. |
|
|
Never understood ardent atheists... or, more specifically, how they don't seem to see that their belief system is just as faith based as the most pious "believer".
|
|
It's not exactly new.
We've had an army of guys who will proudly declare their faith (that God doesn't exist) since the old board. |
|
Still don't have enough presence in numbers to offset the rabid theists.
Free country. Don't have to like it, just have to deal with it. The whole concept was not "my version of freedom" and nobody else's unless they agree with me. If the highest cost of freedom is being offended and not being able to do shit about it besides complain....we should all celebrate. |

View Quote "A fanatic is someone who can't change his mind, and won't change the subject." They are far worse than any believer of any stripe around here. For some reason, they must shit on any post or thread that references religion, even if the religious reference is innocuous. |

Reminds me of some homosexuals and other special snowflake groups who can't speak longer then 3 minutes without bringing up their special status. Like I said insecure attention whores. |
|
We're just trying to reassure you that you won't go to hell for wearing polyester.

I'm pretty sure the gun fanatics outnumber the atheists here a million to one.

It seems to be worse lately Either that or my in my time spent on other boards (where this is not an issue) |

GD has been mostly not Christian for as long as I can remember.
|
|
I have never understood why some folks get so wound up about it. As others have stated, their non-religion goes way past the Joan of Arc level.
|
|
|
Not so much atheists, but like many that are done with the establishment, they are also done with the religion business.
|
|
I have no issues with most Atheist here, but some really
do go out of their way to make an ass of themselves. At first I thought maybe school was out or something |
|
People are sick of the my God can beat up your God, death and destruction. We have a guy at work that bet a guy his beat up car would outlast another, he prayed to God that his would outlast. I am not an atheist but people love to judge others and discriminate in the name of religion. |

America's biggest social problem is the disintegration of the family through children with one parent and divorce. Who does this? Overwhelming Christians. Atheists marry later, divorce less and have less children in single parent households, same with Jews. But facing up to one's own moral failings is uncomfortable, so an outside enemy has to be found, so it's the Jews, Gays and Atheists, and ranting about Jews and Gays is tough to get away with these days so who's left as a scapegoat?

I don't know why General Discussion has so many Rabid Atheists lately.
|

I'm not sure about rabid, but I don't like driving down the HWY and seeing a billboard that says when I die I will meet God, am I ok with my life?
