Atheists are a wishy-washy group of moronic-like people. Why? People are religious creatures. You can see this by noting all the religions in the world. When atheists attempt to get away from religion, all they do is form a religion of non-religion for themselves. Doing this shows that they are bordering on self-destruction.
God operates this world through freedom for the people. That's why He doesn't force anyone to believe anything. Rather, He hopes they will look at the evidence, and believe according to it.
This is why He doesn't push atheists much at all, as they live in the stupidity of their atheism. A push might cause them to self-destruct all the way. God wants them to be saved.
How very interesting that you choose to make statements based on something which you know nothing about. As you have stated you are a self proclaimed man of god I do not believe you have the ability to see the reasons why people chose to be an atheist. That is exactly what it is..... a choice. We choose to believe what we see and not believe in fairy tales.
You represent everything about religion I hate. You are self righteous, opinionated and suffer from delusion. You choose to make grand statements about a fairy tale character and expect everyone to believe it. Yet when others choose a different path, you call them moronic and stupid.
Please remember BADecker that your God called you Stupid. Not some pleb who tries to act holier than thou and cannot see the reality when it slaps him in the face.
Okay.
Certainly you are welcome to your opinions, and welcome to continue to ovoid logic and reality.
Thank you!
I am not "avoiding" anything. It is I who believe you are avoiding logic and certainly reality.
But you are avoiding logic, because I can give and have given examples of why my logic makes sense. You don't really have the examples, but only say that you are acting logically.
An example..... hmmm let me think.....
Is it the poor altar boy who is continuously raped by the priest, only to spend each night asking for forgiveness from your god and wanting to know what atrocious thing he has done to receive such atrocity? Or is it the poor starving children of third world countries who cry each night for food the next day..... only to receive none?
Your answer will be the Millionaire evangelist who receives money from suckers to pay for his tax free livelihood..... all because he prayed to your god.
I suggest you listen to the words of this song for your answer:

All right. So you bring up a few of the many injustices and evils being done around the world. What's the point of your doing so? We can sit around all day long and write lists upon lists of evil things that are being done in this world. Are you trying to say that I do or condone them? What is your logic that you are giving example of? What's your point? I think you are avoiding the subject... how I follow the Word of God.
You asked me to provide examples of why my logic as an atheist makes sense. I did.... and you change it to how you follow the word of your god. How delusional are you? Not to alarm you but the world does not revolve around you.... nor does it revolve around your religion. Most people choose to grow up and we stop believing in fairy tales. Others choose not to and call themselves servants of god.
Bottom line..... you continue to only see the version of your holy book which meets your needs. You still twist the words to meet your own agenda. I do not need a fantasy book to tell me that i need to be a good person.... and i certainly do not need a threat of "hell" to keep me in line and following a set agenda. I am intelligent enough to make my own choices for myself.
As long as you keep running around the logic and explanations I give, you can possibly extend our conversation for a long time. But you absolutely know that you have no proper way to answer the things that I say.
Logic...... lets look at logic.
Your bible is so full of contradictions yet you continue to believe. The logic of this is that when you follow it.... you fail. Therefore, you are permanently a loser.
In the first place, what are you doing looking in my Bible? If you really want to look in a Bible, get your own. So, how do you know what is in my Bible unless you have looked?
Consider yourself. If a person happened to glimpse your life, he would see your contradictions in life. They are all over the place. First you walk into the kitchen, then you walk out of the kitchen. Then you walk into the living room. Then you walk out of the living room. Then you walk back into the kitchen and get a drink of water. Then you walk out of the kitchen into the bathroom and relieve yourself of some water. Then you walk out of the bathroom. Make up your mind. Quit contradicting yourself all over the place.
Of course, if a person took enough time to see the reasons why you were making apparent contradictions throughout your life, he would see that there were non-contradictory reasons why you did all these things. Same with the Bible. Things might look like contradictions, but if you don't examine them in detail, you are only messing up your own thinking about the Bible.
Since you have such a bad attitude regarding the Bible, start with something you can understand... science and nature and the existence of God. Science and nature show and prove that God exists as shown here:

https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/m.16803380.
In addition, you can search the Internet for all kinds of other evidence and proof.
Then once you realize that God exists, you can get out of that stupid, self-contradictory, atheist religion, and really start to live.
I love it how you link passages to yourself. You do this all the time and it never stops to amuse me!
I fear you are starting to become annoyed.
Since I have never highlighted my life as being best, you couldn't have pointed out any fallacy regarding it. Rather, you are simply trying to avoid the fact that there is nothing that you have that can contradict the proof and evidence that God exists.
Why are you so against the truth? Why would you rather attempt to live your life in ways that won't work? Are you so desirous of death, but such a suicide chicken, that you have to get death in any way that you can? So you do it by turning against the God Who maintains your life?
Look at the joys that exist in your life (even though there are troubles and pains as well). God offers you the joys without the pains... in the next life. Turn to God and live.
Ironic that an Atheist like me has more of a caring nature than a "holier than thou" self proclaimed expert on religion like yourself.
I suggest you try the life of an atheist and embrace the real world we live in.... not the fantasy world created by others to scare the masses into following some basic fairy tale.
Only people who don't realize that atheism is a religion of non-religion might become atheists. Because people are religious beings, atheism is a religion of self destruction. I understand why you would suggest that someone become an atheist. Misery loves company.
