I'm Atheist, but accept the possiblities of many things. Spirituality is one of them.
Because they are interested in our views ?
i dont know ....
i'm dont believe in bull fighting so i dont go in the section ....
maybe they want to see what its about.
maybe they want to wreck or beilefs.
we just dont know.
Beats me.
Because we like talking about it. Just because we don't believe means we have to ignore it. Religious people affect our daily lives, why shouldn't we attempt to understand and question them?
I can't have a drink today. I have a cold.
Why shouldn't I?
*SIGH!*
It's the anthropic principle. We're here because we can be.
Or maybe atheists tend to know more about religion than theists.
From my own experience atheists tend to know much more about bible than Christians
Maybe it was learning about the religions that MADE them atheists...I dunno
All I know is that since theists feel free to invade everything in life, including other peoples' bedrooms then atheists have every right to come to this room and ask/respond to questions
Religion requires one to be spiritual.
Spirituality doesn't require one to be religious.
Every subject is allowed an opposing view.
Don't like it, don't post it.
Because we have the right answers.
The "they're only here because they secretly believe in gods" line is one of the more common lies told here by desperate believers. You are by no means the first one to react to your fear of being exposed by our presence by reciting this little gem.
I'm here to discuss religion. What are you doing here?
Atheism is a personal belief system in the area of religion and spirituality.
Why are you asking? Hoping that someone will confirm your unfounded hopes that atheists are really yearning for you to witness to them?
Well every one has to believe in some thing!!!!!!
I believe in the God and Goddess, Atheists BELIEVE there are no Gods.
Blessed Be
obviously confused
Imagine.....
That people can actually be spiritual apart from YOUR specific doctrinal beliefs!
What a revolutionary concept within an evolving species!
You could say the same thing about Christians who claim that Christianity is not a religion but a relationship. Why don't they post their questions in the Family & Relationships section?
Because religion and spirituality does not mean Christian or any belief in God. Look up the definition of the words so you will realize what this section is all about. (I could tell you but you wouldn't believe me, look them up!)
*Applauds*
You're just so witty.
Nobody has ever thought to ask atheists why they feel a desire to comment on topics to do with religion, no.
You are the first. Kudos to you, little genius.
*drink*
We're here to try to end the ignorance.
We are spreading the word and saving your souls - and just because we are atheists does not mean that we are not spiritual
We are trying to help you.
This question passed it's expiration date a long time ago.
We're here, get over it.
And no, we are not looking for god here, or unsure, or whatever you want to call it.
NOT ME..!! HAVE YOU HEARD THE STORY OF LEAH...?? CHRISTIANS ARE IGNORANT OF WHAT THE BIBLE SAYS. THEY ONLY FOLLOW THEIR SPIRITUAL LEADERS..!!!
Hardly anybody knows the story of Leah Leah is the greatest great grandma of Jesus. She is also the Matriarch of all the Israelites. She paid in DRUGS to her own sister Rachel to buy some SEX from her negligent husband Jacob the greatest great grandpa of Jesus in the first ever recorded DRUGS FOR SEX DEAL in the Bible... all under God s approval and supervision! The real funny episode in this story is that Jacob was married to both sisters and they seem to buy a night in bed with Jacob paying each other in drugs AND DOING DRUGS ALL IN JACOB S FAMILY!!! BTW I am not saying that they were junkies, OK? So don t report me please. One of their grandsons the polygamist King David was also married to a mother and her daughter! Can you imagine a threesome of King David, Michal and her mother in bed to keep it all in the family? In the New Testament Spirit filled Church at Corinth a young man was having sex with his own mother and THE WHOLE CHURCH WAS PROUD OF IT! How kinky can you get in the Bible stories???
Genesis 30:15-16 (NIV) But she said to her, Wasn't it enough that you took away my husband? Will you take my son's mandrakes too? Very well, Rachel said, he can sleep with you tonight in return for your son's mandrakes. * (*Check mandrake in Wikipedia! http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mandrake_(p... Leah s son was probably a very knowledgeable teenager, too!) So when Jacob came in from the fields that evening, Leah went out to meet him. You must sleep with me, she said. I have hired you with my son's mandrakes. So he slept with her that night.* (*they probably had plenty of mandrakes to go around that night, too ! Surely Rachel didn t keep all the mandrakes for herself. Rachel turned out to be quite a dominatrix!)
The Bible people were doing the kinkiest drugs and sex all along in the Bible stories. From inhaling the smoke of burning bushes to doing some mushroom specialty as depicted in the mushroom shaped bonnets worn by the High Priests of God! God prescribed hard liquor offering to be poured on the altar of the LORD, too. No wonder the Bible God is so psychedelically oriented and the theologians today go crazy trying to figure out what is that God has to say in the Bible INSTEAD OF GOING DIRECTLY TO THE SOURCE TO FIND OUT FOR THEMSELVES AND MAY THE FORCE BE WITH YOU !!! It is said that drugs make you feel one nature with God!!! So when Jesus went about saying, my Father and I are one he must have meant something more than just plain rhetoric If you do any detective work you MUST consider ALL BIBLE PRECEDENTS and clues!
IN BIBLE TIMES, ANYTIME THEY SAW A NAKED PROPHET THEY KNEW THAT HE/SHE WAS TRULY SPEAKING FOR GOD!
1 Samuel 19 24 He* (*King Saul) STRIPPED OFF HIS ROBES and also prophesied in Samuel's presence. HE LAY THAT WAY ALL THAT DAY AND NIGHT. This is why people say, "Is Saul also among the prophets?"* (*at that time, all the prophets of God must have been high on something and going around naked to achieve the greatest impact on people! King Saul must have taken an extra dose, too. That s how he was recognized as another of the elite prophets of God! This is the honest naked truth in the Bible!)
KING DAVID DANCED BEFORE THE LORD WITH HIS GENITALS EXPOSED.
2 Samuel 6:14, 20-23 * David, wearing a linen ephod, danced before the LORD with all his might... [20] When David returned home to bless his household, Michal daughter of Saul came out to meet him and said, "HOW THE KING OF ISRAEL HAS DISTINGUISHED HIMSELF TODAY, DISROBING IN THE SIGHT OF THE SLAVE GIRLS OF HIS SERVANTS AS ANY VULGAR FELLOW WOULD!"* (*Michal knew that dancing before the LORD was BULL SH*T!) David said to Michal, "IT WAS BEFORE THE LORD* (*King David was hallucinating that The LORD pleasurizes himself watching a man dancing naked before him!) I will become even more undignified than this, and I will be humiliated in my own eyes* (*how kinky can King David get?). But by THESE SLAVE GIRLS YOU SPOKE OF, I WILL BE HELD IN HONOR."* (hey, was King David trying to impress The LORD ? or was he trying to catch the eyes of THESE SLAVE GIRLS???) And Michal daughter of Saul* (* this is the King Saul who prophesied naked among the prophets before the LORD) had no children to the day of her death.
Read the whole story in full CONTEXT* (*Fundie catch phrase!) by yourself! The lesson in the Bible is that no wife can complain about any husband dancing naked exposing his genitals before some slave girls and the LORD! or he is bound to stop having sex with her until she dies! Thank God she can still become a lesbian THERE IS NO DAMNING OF LESBIANS ANYWHERE IN THE OLD TESTAMENT !!!
HOW ABOUT WALKING AROUND NAKED FOR THREE (3) YEARS AS A SIGN AND A WONDER UPON SOME ODDBALL FOREIGN COUNTRIES? This is about the longest sustained hallucination that anybody ever experienced in the Bible! You don t have to say anything just go about your daily chores totally NAKED and let your athletic body speak for itself!!!
Isaiah 20:2-3 (KJV) At the same time spake the LORD by Isaiah the son of Amoz, saying, Go and loose the sackcloth from off thy loins, and put off thy shoe from thy foot. And he did so, walking NAKED and barefoot. And the LORD said, Like as my servant Isaiah hath walked NAKED AND BAREFOOT THREE YEARS for a sign and wonder upon Egypt and upon Ethiopia;
This is one of God s ways of speaking in sundry times and in diverse manners Hey, Christians got themselves a God that excels in refinements! This prophet qualified to prophesy about the virgin birth of God the Son Jesus Christ!
THE YOUNG PROPHET MICAH USED TO GET INTO A GODLY MOOD OF GOING NAKED SHOWING THE EFFECTS OF A HEAVY DOSE OF MANDRAKE ON HIMSELF! (Praise the LORD! Sweet Jesus !!!)
Micah 1:8 Because of this I will weep and wail; I will go about barefoot and NAKED. I will howl like a jackal and moan like an owl.
Kids in public school can now read the Bible as another literature book Has anybody thought of setting up a rating system for the Bible to make sure that nobody starts playing the God s naked prophet game in school while shooting drugs especially, with girls watching ??? Sometimes kids in school use much sillier excuses to misbehave in a more horrific way So let s have a drink and forget all about it!
Proverbs 31:6-7 (NIV) Give beer to those who are perishing, wine to those who are in anguish; let them drink and forget their poverty and remember their misery no more!
Even the Bible teaches that nothing beats a good shot of hard liquor to get you back on your feet! I just wonder what makes the Christians so prude and intolerant! It must be a Victorian Era hangover.
Zachariah 9:17 (KJV-1611) For how great is his goodness, and how great is his beauty! Corn (fermented corn whiskey or what have you!) shall make the young men cheerful, and new wine the maids.
If we're going to try to talk sense to the religiously brainwashed, where else can we go?
You should read what we're writing instead of complaining that we're here. You might learn something.
Everybody is looking for God. Some just do not know what they are seeking.Others are just blind to the truth.
I'm Christian, but I completely support the activity of atheists in this forum. Religion is one's belief concerning the nature and origin of the Universe. Believing that a god was not responsible for it qualifies as a religious belief.
You have to be religious to discuss religion? Are you sure?
I think I better stop posting in the Royalty section as well.. :(
Atheism is a spiritual path based on intellectual honesty and integrity. Athiests belong here and they are welcome here. They actually provide a great service to us believers with their skepticism by forcing us to think. Hopefully we also give them things to think about. Your remark "maybe not quite sure after all" is coy and sarcastic. Give them their due respect, and they may also respect your honest responses to their questions. God bless athiests!
