lol. oh boy quit foaming out the mouth over mere words on a screen. what has where you work at or the model of the phone you use got to do with atheism being a religion or not? yea, you kicked some american and european asses; clap for yourself. now back to topic. you stated earlier that atheists propagate their beliefs even more aggressively and i called you out on it for being far from the truth with a couple examples of way more aggressive means the religionists have employed in propagating their beliefs. and yea, terrorism is an aggressive form of using fear to propagate beliefs. ask the jews who were forced to convert to lutheranism or be tortured and massacred (not even mentioning the modern day islamic terrorist who use fear and violence to propagate islam). until we see an atheist equivalent of boko haram, such a comparison is not even debatable. even though i've never even heard of any atheist embarking on even the subtlest means of conversion like knocking on peoples door, there sure could emerge atheists who deify dawkins or the big bang (nothing is impossible), but then again, it won't be atheism (a lack of deities and modes of worship) no more. atheism could well become a militant or aggressive "movement" (as you put it) maybe as a backlash for centuries of religious intolerance and persecution, but it still wouldn't place it under the category of religion, and i'm not sure it would be able to rival atrocities perpetrated by religious strifes in centuries past. with the way you reason, i guess those calling for a violent revolution to solve the nigerian problem in the politics section is a religious movement. i personally don't condone violence and no matter how you (and deluded christian apologists) try to twist it, atheism cannot be termed a religion. atheism being a religion is actually an oxymoron |
Re: Atheism Is A Religion by Rhino4dm: 12:24pm On Nov 11, 2010 |
How simple was that ehn? You went all out in making example with basket ball and went on in your generalization about religion and when you were called out you gave out and diverted to having difficulties with sleep and some off shoot weird stuffs. Last time i check violence can be found in everywhere including animal kingdom. About show off's, i thought you are the very first one that started fluanting his ego under the guise of making "dollars" under the US government blah blah blah. Simply because you dont believe that atheism is another form of 'organize religion' doesn't make it wrong . Yeah atheism might be at its lowest ebb now, but with way things are going only 'God' can help us.(grin grin grin) Guy break that line and stick to issue at hand and tell us why atheism is not another form of aggressive organize religion with proofs or you pipe low. Still expecting some cartoons and freaky pictures. Chiami quando tu e pronto! Fratello. |

thehomer:I think you're doing the electric slide around a very simple question Homer. If you're not familiar with Dawkinian-style atheism - that even has a very strong presence here on NL - then I must regretfully recuse myself as further discussion would be meaningless back and forth over trivialities like semantics - such as you attempted down here: EDIT: Do you wish to redefine what it means to be militant? If you do, then also consider the people one would also have to consider as being militant under this redefinition e.g Gandhi and Martin Luther King Jr.Now I think you're being cheeky. I know you're smart enough to understand when a word is used metaphorically. |

JeSoul: I already described what I understood about Dawkins methods and intentions and they do not fit what I understand about militants. Unless you can demonstrate my misunderstanding. I think in this discussion, ironing out the semantics and definitions/descriptions would go a long way in painting a clear picture of what is being conveyed. JeSoul: I guess the metaphor didn't transmit clearly online. |
Re: Atheism Is A Religion by Purist(m): 7:43pm On Nov 11, 2010 |

Re: Atheism Is A Religion by Purist(m): 10:10pm On Nov 11, 2010 |
^^^ Being 'interested' in religion, like politics, does not make one religious. That's the point. |
Re: Atheism Is A Religion by manmustwac(m): 11:01pm On Nov 11, 2010 |
The theist believes in a deity which in a broader sense refers to a doctrine concerning the nature of a monotheistic God and his relationship to the universe. Atheism is commonly defined as the position that there are no deities. It can also mean the rejection of belief in the existence of deities. Atheism is the lack of theism. How much plainer can it get? An atheist is a man who has no invisible means of support John Buchan, Lord Tweedsmuir |

Purist: I hope you have a dictionary? Here is ONE definition found in three dictionaries I checked. Politician: A person active in party politics And its here as well. http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/politician Want to reconsider your statement or you want me to dissect this further? |
Re: Atheism Is A Religion by Nobody: 1:29am On Nov 12, 2010 |
atheism is NOT a religion lol. Antheism is against any religious institutions as they do no believe in a "divine entity". It's not rocket science ![]() |
Re: Atheism Is A Religion by Purist(m): 2:02am On Nov 12, 2010 |
InesQor: Apparently, sarcasm isn't something you're familiar with. Besides, I don't understand why you're excited at Enigma's comment. Atheists are 'interested', 'obsessed', blah blah with religion, and so atheism is automatically a religion? What a brilliant conclusion ![]() |
