The true definition of Hate  (at all its kinds) : it's the manipulation of some idiots to make them act against other idiots who will make a reaction that pushes the first idiots to act again... etc.

At the end, both idiots will die or disappear or just lose their fight and will remind about what they gained from Hate...

At the same time, the manipulators (who were sitting away and laughing becsuse of their manipulation's success) will govern both of them.

Notice: the manipulators are generally without principles (they can motivate both idiots in their fight by media, infiltrators...) and without feelings  (so they don't share any of the thoughts that they inject in the mass's heads)...
but all what they know that they have after fight their own BENEFITS.

The manipulators will die, too.    Cool

They just can't understand why believers wasting their time on "useless stuff" how they think, but most of atheists just don't care about it.

The concrete evidence of the quote "Ignorance is a bliss." Isn't religious people tend to be more happy and joyful?

I think this sign's message is more of a jab against egotism.

Lots of people have great knowledge of novels/science fiction/science theory... but little knowledge of the real, and basic fact, the existence of God.

Ah, that's right. For you everything is a religion, isn't it? Jobs, philosophies, sports, habits -- anything anyone spends time on is a religion to you.

Can you even name some belief or idea that can't fit your concept of a religion? I can't.


Things become religions for people when they place improper belief in them. When people consider fictitious or potentially fictitious things as truth, and then start to adamantly believe and trust in them as truth, that's when they have a religion going for themselves.

Any and all ideas that a person has, that he doesn't start to adamantly believe in or trust as truth, may not be a religion for him. For example. A beautiful butterfly may cross one's path. It might intrigue the person for a moment. But then the person goes on his way and forgets about it except to mention it to a few friends. No butterfly religion.

A lepidopterist on the other hand, has made butterflies his religion or one of them.

Cool

Interestingly, most people would call a lepidopterist a vocation rather than a religion. Is a vocation a religion in your idiolect?





No point to argue with this imbecile. By his reasoning, study of bridges is a sect of civil engineer's religion.
Never mind cosmologist studying black holes...

He redefines common English terms to fit his skewed worldview.  He is delusional and he knows it, but he tries to convince himself that he is not by inventing "new scientific" terminology and attacking people who point out obvious holes in his "biblical science".




How silly you have become. Don't you realize that anybody who studies bridges, and then adamantly believes stuff that is blatantly not true about the bridges he has studied, especially in the face of being shown that it is not true, has a religion going for himself? His religion might not be a dangerous one, he may not be harmful to himself or others, and people would not even recognize, generally, that he had a religion going. But according to the definition of religion in the dictionaries, that is what he has.

Since you like to express faith in meanings of words that are not dictionary accurate, and then pick on people who use correct definitions, everyone can tell that your formal religion must be totally wrong, just like your informal anti-dictionary religion.

Cool


I guess you missed this: Is a vocation a religion in your idiolect?


You haven't learned to use the dictionary, yet, have you? If a person treats his vocation as a religion, then for him it is a religion, right? By your questions, you are proving that the atheism religion is for the dimwitted.

When a religious story informs you that "they", "them", "those", "heathens", "unrighteous" are condemned and must die, will you obey the illogical untrue indoctrinating story just because it is a religious story and the truth and should be obeyed as such?

You have checked with most people? People call all kinds of things all kinds of things. Lepidopterology is a branch of science. Science, definitely being a religion, makes lepidopterology a religion as well, or at least a branch of religion.

As meaning-making creatures, humans often tell stories to shape the meaning they create. All meaning for all humans is narrative in nature. Religion stories are usually quite good in the meaning it creates. The meaning is created when it is read as words, sentences, paragraphs and chapters - all in ink on paper but nowadays also on digital media. Important though, to remember, is that the meaning is created because it is told as a narrative. We all love stories - in fact we live by stories every single day.

Interesting how the cash of the poor always ends up in the coffers of the religion keepers - the sophisticated wealthy ones who 'act' as gods themselves with their insatiable lust for more and more, while preying on the emotions of the 'lost' poor and draining them till all is gone and they die.

Thank GOD crypto is open to all, neutral and unbiased.

In America, among Christian religions, money is not generally taken from the poor by force. Rather, the poor donate it to God, to continue the work of spreading God's word. This doesn't mean that the money is always used in a right way. But the point is that God's Word is spread, and along with it, salvation. God rewards the poor who give, in all kinds of ways for their generosity and love. And, they will end up with eternal life, which is way more important.

Those who spread Gods Word directly - the religious leaders - are doing a great and wonderful work. They deserve to get paid just like anyone else who works. And since this work is saving souls for eternal life, it is the best work there is, and should be rewarded accordingly. It's too bad that some religious leaders are drawn away towards the things of wealth and this life, and start to use the wealth improperly. If they don't change, they will be punished for this, by God.

What are you talking about?  They operate as tax free scams.  They use the same techniques as a Nigerian boiler room scam artist would use.

Have you been living under the rock?  Or you are in denial of everything that shows how ridiculous your religion is?

Tax free scams!!!  Aren't you even starting to realize that taxation is the scam?  Haven't you been looking at Meet Karl Lentz at https://bitcointalksearch.org/topic/meet-karl-lentz-1512214 ?

Government is the religion that is trying to shut down the competition. Or are you part of them?

Wake up.
