No, they're just disorganized because they can't make up their minds.Originally posted by: bignateyk
This is why I hate atheists. Agnostics are the way to go. They don't have an agenda.
For that matter, neither can the realm of religious people. We've gone through thousands of religions, and each one was absolutely certain it was the right one. Most of the religions which have ever existed are now extinct. Maybe Zeus is sitting there on Mt. Olympus, superbly pissed off now, since the entire world (well, 99.999....% of it) is now an atheist with respect to him, all believing in false gods, or none at all. That, or else we are still 100,000 years away from finding the one true religion, and everyone in the meantime is going to UltraHell for being so blind as to not see it.
The evidence would certainly point to religions being a purely human construct, including all the characters therein, thus there would seem to be no good reason to place much faith in constantly changing ideologies which claim to be receiving their beliefs and values from an absolute perfect source - a source which is merely one of the characters written of in text.
A book doesn't become nonfiction just because one of its characters peeks out through the 4th wall and says so.
