is atheism eviler than Religion? (Page 5)

Zanjan: I don't count violent individuals as religious folk. Violence is not a divine principle; thus, no scripture teaches it.

Religious communities do have infiltrators but atheist communities don't because they don't have anything worth stealing. Who chooses an atheist community for cover??

AchillesSinatra: Religion does not teach violence?

Have you any idea how many women (mostly) were tortured and brutally murdered just because of one stupid line in the book of Leviticus (I think) commanding that witches be put to death?

But now you'll explain to us why that doesn't count as preaching violence.

AretoNyx: Dashing kids on rocks mentioned but any how one can cherry pick sure. I suppose those are atheist verses that have war and violent deaths ...ok then.

AretoNyx: Num num bake a baby and eat it is atheismszzz

Zanjan: Achillies, the scripture doesn't say that witches should be put to death. It says, "thou shalt not suffer a witch to live".

BIG difference between plunging a knife into someone's heart and choosing not be involved or condoning their practices. The only way to destroy evil is with truth and justice.

Dont blame the text for a bunch of hateful people twisting it to meet their own agenda.

AchillesSinatra: Ok, it's not the text's fault

Zanjan: Too bad a majority of people dont understand ancient language and culture.

AchillesSinatra: Too bad a lot of people refuse to take responsibility for the senseless brutality commanded by religion.

Zanjan: Too bad a lot of people are into fault-finding and blame instead of appreciating the good that religion has brought to mankind. I don't have much time for the cyclops and zombies of the world.

AchillesSinatra: No time for mythical beasts, eh?

AretoNyx: Time to hate on the text of video games and D&D next...after all dragons are dead just because.

MJ59:

AchillesSinatra:

AretoNyx: 😈

AchillesSinatra: Well, since Zanjan assures us "Thou shalt not suffer a witch to live" has no relevance whatsoever to religiously motivated violence and unspeakable cruelty . . . how about some John Lennon?



By the way, Zanjan, how do the witches who were burnt to a crisp feel about this?

I bet if they were here, they'd say "Zanjan is right. Religion is all about peace and love".

AchillesSinatra: And being being burnt to a crisp didn't hurt that much anyway. Jesus loves you.

AchillesSinatra: Is it at least conceivably possible that unspeakably stupid religious fuckwits who are absolutely certain they are right are part of the problem?


Just a thought for your consideration

AchillesSinatra: Never mind. Joan was asking for it

Zanjan: It wouldn't surprise me if you thought ISIS members believe in God. Now, shall we talk about Stalin and Hitler? Maybe the most evil is about how many you kill.

AretoNyx: Yes Zan you read minds and magically know what people believe...so are we all here theists because we do not murder people?

AretoNyx: How about those that killed people in wars, and even supposedly saved in prison after killing such as in gangs? No forgiveness is common in religion for some I guess and so they will always be atheist because kill count says the prophet zan whom speaks for gods and goddesses. 🙍

Blackshoes: That's your problem

AretoNyx: That I am not a mormon young earth creationist in competitions with old earth muslims for members agreeing that all atheists are evil and should be dammed? Some just try sooner at getting them I guess. 😞

AchillesSinatra: Blackshoes, have you ever entertained the hypothesis that you are inordinately stupid and could do the world a favor by saying as little as possible?

AchillesSinatra: I didn't think so.

Oh, go on then.
