Or why I accept no-one else opinion except my own.

[mikey4444]

Ratter...wish I had said all that !

[jno]

atheists certainly think themselves a better class of person, so obviously they'd want to tell everyone.

[pixie374]

Yes, it's obvious. Atheists will keep it to themselves, when people keep religion to themselves. "Atheist" wouldn't even be a word, otherwise, it would just be assumed.

[Psybbo]

That says it all, thank you Ratter

[vulcan42]

jno, why blame the messengers and call them vain, do you not believe the atrocities listed?

[RATTER15]

jno, I have never even thought of who is a better person to be honest, I certainly have never suggested I am a better person, but as you brought it up, read that list again, and you tell me who is the better person, the supporter and follower of the religions that do these things or the person who condemns them.

Well said RATTER. x

You can't base your opinion on all Religions by quoting the very worst aspects of some religions. I'm not religious but respect the fact that some people who do believe in a God actually don't burn their children or blow people up. Its pathetic and childish. I'm sure there are plenty of Psychopathic Atheists , ungodly wife beaters, child abusers and all round loonies - so does that make Atheism no longer acceptable? Just because you don't believe in something does not mean all the other people who do believe in something are evil. That makes you just as Evangelistic as those you disparage.

[RATTER15]

Retro, I have not suggested that!!

Nobody does any of these things in the name of Atheism, unlike the things in that list that are done in the name of religion.

Maybe you would like to tell us all what atrocities are being carried out in the name of atheism..

[Retrochic]

Atheism does not exist as a cult therefore nothing can be done 'in the name of' it.

[RATTER15]

Thankyou, unlike religion! where a lot of barbaric atrocities are carried out daily around the world!

[Mamyalynne]

It is right and proper that people can choose to be Atheists.

It is right and proper that people can choose to have a faith or religious belief.

It is totally wrong and improper for people to carry out atrocities against anyone,whatever 'name or excuse' they do it in.

[hc4361]

Atheism was the doctrine of the USSR and Christians were persecuted in the name of atheism.

[RATTER15]

hc, we are not talking history here, we are talking about present day! I am aware of atheism in the past....very distant past.

[Retrochic]

people who killed in the name of atheism
Napoleon Bonaparte
Than Shwe
Kim Jong Il
Jeffrey Dahmer
Jim Jones
Benito Mussolini
Mao Zedong
Pol Pot
Joseph Stalin

[RATTER15]

Retro, keep it current please! even all those put together would come no where near the atrocities of mass genocide as found in the Bible.

But I am talking about current, not history!

You are here because you were programmed to be,otherwise you would have ceased to exist.

You think that because you self released your shackles by not believing in a higher power that this makes you more powerful than those that believe in religion?

It's time to wake up and wake up fast.

The world is evolving and dissolving at the fastest rate since it's inception in a constant fluid state.

Those that want to lay back and have the peace that we got here mysteriously and will leave quietly as there isn't anything beyond the beyond will never achieve the real inner peace that those that have cracked the codes of the matrix and have seen the web of lies for themselves but first you have to believe,then want then achieve the impossible (possible)
