Atheists Better Educated? NEVER!

[edgray]

I find anti-religion fanatics to be just as annoying as religious fanatics, actually maybe a little bit moreso because you can't even use a figure of speech like "Thank God" or "For the love of God" around them without them trying to start some ridiculous religious debate over it, why can't we all just accept that we don't all believe the same things and live and let live?

I'm all for live and let live but the religious aspect of society actually causes quite a few problems. From ignorance of the scientific method, it's purpose and it's benefits, to the ignoring of phenomenon like global warming, to the very basis of the highly faulty free market itself. That's not including the wars it invokes and the divisions it slaps into society.

Again, this isn't to say all religious people cause these problems, but there are significant trends amongst those with religious beliefs.

If the religious can keep their beliefs out of our schools, out of the political arena and keep them as their own personal philosophical constructs, we'll keep our logic and reason out of their faces.

If you're for live and let live, then don't stamp over people's beliefs

I agree, Religion has NO PLACE in our schools or in our politics, Religious fanatics are not only ANNOYING, they are also DANGEROUS, and should never be in a position to have their voices heard by large amounts of people.


lol funny story, sometimes I'll pretend to be religious just to annoy atheists, there was this kid I used to work with at the nursing home, one day he SNAPS on one of our coworkers for saying Merry Christmas to him, I don't mean he just told him he didn't celebrate or something like that, he starts RAGING at this person for saying Merry Christmas to him, so from that point on whenever it was just me and him alone working I'd Antagonize him by singing church songs(of which I know many), usually "Jesus Loves Me", "Jesus Loves the Little Children", or my personal favorite "ONWARD CHRISTIAN SOLDIERS", the kid was never man enough to say anything to me about it but I know it was killing him inside, the day I got fired must have been the greatest day of that fucking punk's life.

if they abide by the pretty fair caveats I mentioned in my previous post, I'd be more than happy to.

 

[Tuffdisc]

that argument makes even less sense.

and statistically, the higher qualified a scientist you are, the less likely you are to be Christian, and the less likely you are to hold any belief in a God of any kind.

.

You're talking nonsense as you normally do :thumbup

One thing I see in you, you hate celebrities is because they are richer than you

One thing you hate about religion is that more people listen to religion than the nonsense you come out with.

You can't even get the fact that Mac computers are vulnerable to viruses. Statistics has nothing to do whether atheists are better educated than Christians, as you keep spouting nonsense, clearly shows how "better" educated atheists are, you have to look at yourself....don't look at yourself in the mirror, it will give you the wrong impressions :24:

Ok, if you honestly think you can, please explain EXACTLY why that last statement of mine (which, by the way is based on information readily available, and even on this forum, including this thread here: http://offtopicz.net/showthread.php?t=71255 , some more here: http://offtopicz.net/showthread.php?t=71143 ) was nonsense. Please try and use some logic and some decent grammar too.

As for your other laughable comments, you'd love it to be that simple wouldn't you? That's most likely why you believe in the magical sky-father, because it's the easiest answer, no brain needed whatsoever.

OH MY GOD you don't even read anyone's posts do you?

^ THOSE FUCKING CAVEATS. Jesus, your educational level is utterly embarrassing. Did you graduate kindergarten or are you still studying there in the evenings?

You can't even explain as to how everything was created, yeah so logical in your answers....


Grammar is the lowest and most stupidest form of insults, I just ignore people like you, because that is people like you have got left to do. Ta-ra Atheists better educated? Pffft, got to be kidding when someone like you keeps coming up with drivel

I don't have the time to read rubbish posts like yours :24: Or do you think your posts are interesting? Oh too one person on this site....wonder who

How can you possibly expect to put up a decent argument against someone if you can't be bothered to at least read their posts on the topic?

That didn't even address anything I posted. As usual, dodging the issue.

And neither can you explain everything. And whatever explanation you give you cannot prove in any way.

But, I can give a pretty solid case as to how everything came to be, from the colliding of two membranes that created the big bang, to the creation of matter and energy and then the rest of the universe. Then of course, billions of years later, to the forming of the Earth and then the start of life and it's subsequent evolution.

No, grammar is there so we can understand what other people are trying to say. Your posts are more than confusing.

And furthermore, as always, you're the one who starts getting personal, bringing other threads into this one because you cannot produce decent arguments to support whatever case you're blindly trying to push.

I have absolutely no idea. It's like arguing against a politician.

 

[Dana]

Ok first off I didn't say, and neither did anyone else in this thread, that a person is "dumb and uneducated" just because their religious. You're right, this would be a very unfair view.

There will always be exceptions to any rule, especially where people and the infinite varieties of their personalities comes into play, but the trend is quite simple: being educated, especially about multiple religions, and you're less likely to believe in the magical sky-father.



Nothing to do with boosting ones ego, Dana. Your weighty contribution is appreciated, as always.

Maybe I'd contribute to this discussion more if it wasn't that same asanine debate with the same close minded rebuttal and the atheists are holier than thou bullcucka

Because you cannot possibly counter them with an intelligent coherent answer, can you?

My first answer was coherent, it just wasn't what the fuck you wanted to hear. How bout I go Google you an Atheist forum so you can go be with your kind and you can stop clogging up the debate forum with the same crap.

:willy_nilly:

That comment wasn't aimed at you Dana, seeing how I quoted TuffDisc and all, that really should've given that away quite clearly...

 

[Tuffdisc]

I can answer things more coherently than you, you only quote scientists not yourself.

Well I became an atheist because of the simple fact that the bible is incompatible with science and modern knowledge.
