People who believe in the rapture are very gullible

[PepePeru]

god himself sent the dolphins to block the satanic evil pirates from disrupting global commerce (god loves capitalism) and insuring that container ship full of dildos made it to safe harbor.

First you said that "labeling a group of people for not believing in something for which there's no evidence is kinda dumb." I said to call them atheists or agnostics is quite acceptable. You then invented a term "aunicornist" which I pointed out was fake.

So you do not believe in God or a "god"? And are you therefore an atheist? Or do you refuse to be called an atheist because you feel theres a negative connotation? If you do not believe in God and are thus called an atheist, I contend you are not labeled. You are described.

Furthermore while people feel this way about so many things (being called white, black, democrat, republican, you name it) that doesn't change the fact of the matter. And if this was the whole point you were trying to make, then no further discussion is needed. I understand. I dont agree with you, but I understand you. :sun:

See my sig. I don't like the word atheist for the same reason I don't think there needs to be a word for people who don't believe in astrology or homeopathy or any other ideas for which there is no evidence or validity. "Atheism is nothing more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs."

May I ask why you chose this particular topic to be your first post on the forums?

The same can be said about Santa Claus.

Because the material is golden. Golden material makes for good threads. All threads I start will be this good. And now you know.

Rightio. I only asked because, while the rr thread folks are so far out there that the content is sure to attract a lot of response, this topic (religion) tends to be particularly contentious and isn't often a first pick for no0b members.

Their forum rules make it quite clear why everyone is towing the same line. Their official rules explicitly forbid members from disagreeing with pretty much anything that the board owners believe. For example...

[03] No blasphemy of the Holy Spirit in mocking God, His character, or using God's name in vain

[04] Defend the Faith and God's infallible Word, not the ways of the world, homosexuality, liberalism, socialism, false translations, false theologies, Mysticism, or deceptive cults and other heresie

[05] Do not promote unscriptural ideologies. Do not attack the Christian faith in the guise of "wanting to learn", for entertainment purposes of arguments and debates. Do not promote insurrection propaganda or fear based threads on FEMA camps and other government conspiracies. Our primary focus is current news regarding biblical prophecy.

[13] No Liberal Left Wing Political Agendas, Pacifism, Socialism, Tax Dodging, Anti-American Conspiracies, Anti-War Propaganda, or that the United States is Israel or Mystery Babylon.

There are many more and they're pretty amusing, check it out

Quick poll:

How many ATers have already established troll accounts over there? :evil:

All atheist should show their protest against religion by giving up all their money. Show the world that you will not accept "In God we trust" on the money you use by donating it to the "I hate religion and this is what I think about it" fund, lines are open 1900-suc-kers.

Anyone who is atheist is off their fucking rocker. :roll:

You see how ridiculous it is to generalize?

Except one of our generalizations was incorrect.

Nobody knows who's right or wrong. Nobody can pretend to know.

see, now you got Arcadio all excited. way to go, dudes. :roll:

actually, I'm guessing all of your threads will be just as bad.

there is absolutely nothing good to come out of a religion thread on AT. none.

Whoa. Now, even I want to troll that forum.

"You people are so fucking gullible. Do you really believe everything you read? You apparently all lack critical thinking skills. Look at the picture. Dolphins. Chinese vessels in the background. Helloooooo, any neurons firing in that cranium of yours? Who the fuck do you think took the picture? The picture was published in a Chinese newspaper. Do you really think that the pirates took that picture and mailed it to a Chinese newspaper? God, you people are stupid. I hope that when the rapture comes, Our Wonderful Father doesn't invite you twits. Heaven would suck with a bunch of brainless morons."

Now look what you made me do by posting that link. 2 f-bombs from DrPizza. That might be some kind of record. I can't even browse that forum... just that one thread alone annoyed me too much.

I'm Christian and these people need to be bashed.

I'm thinking of registering and seeing how long I can last there with saying nothing but "Praise Jesus" in every post of mine.

Ah the Atheist angle. A group of people all but formed their own religion arguing against (other) religion(s).

Don't worry. Not having the unifying community that religion has means we will forever be a loud spoken, but disorganized mob of anarchists. A real atheist would reject any attempts at a "Church of Atheism" or equivalent as readily as he rejects all religious churches.

Actually, if atheism is considered a religion, why not open a "church" with big screen tv's, a bar, etc. Spend Sundays watching NFL, etc., with tax exempt status.

I agree but I'd take it one step further and go the apathetic agnostic route. Don't know Don't care.
