It's just my mum and I. Pretty quaint, I guess. Not too in your face about things. It's kinda nice.

It's good to know that Big Brother is always watching.

Yes. But alas, they've all got the same thing in common: bullshit.

I haven't been a Christian for a while. My mind does enforce me to be an atheist, I like the way you put that. Logic has won out over faith. And justly so.
Can any of us really claim to have wisdom? -
Reading the Bible with an open mind is the easiest way to become an atheist. Reading it with a closed mind is the only way anyone could believe it.
-
Are you joking? Christianity has pagan roots. Christmas, probably your favorite holiday, has pagan roots. You act as if it's a bad thing.
-
Christians are religious. Religious people are dogmatic. Simple as that.

Thank you for respecting my beliefs. I don't know of any atheists that don't believe in love, happiness, and humanity, but I'll take your word for it.
For about a year leading up to my declaration of atheism, I had been less and less accepting of religion as a whole. Being a pseudo-Christian, I became increasingly critical of main-stream Christianity. For a while, I went to a new-age church until I realized, in the end, all of Christianity was the same.
I called myself an agnostic for a while and I finally left behind the label of Christianity about two months before I determined that I had been an atheist.
Only the educated are free. -
I can't be mad at someone who isn't real.
It'd be like being mad at the tooth fairy because there was no money underneath my pillow when I lost a tooth. -
Please elaborate on these 'gifts'.
-
And yet, I'll say it until I'm dead. There is no god. Now stop worrying and live your life.
-
I don't make logic my god. Logic rocks. If we can't agree on that, there's no point in discussing anything anymore.
-
I'm sorry that I've furthered your delusion.
-
You're pathetic. Go get a life.

Human suffering occurs because of evolution. The fight for survival.
If your god is so powerful and loving, he would stop human suffering. He wouldn't let Satan and sin prevail just to teach his creation a lesson. If he did do that, he would be malevolent as hell. -
It depends on what claims you're talking about. Claims about say, an earthquake, that a historian also recorded is obviously reputable. But claims that god parted the seas or made talking snakes is ridiculous, and deep down, you know it.
-
Both. This book could be the Bible or just a collection of stories.
Do my homework? What do you speak of? Most Christians agree that the stories in the Bible are mostly symbolic and that only some of the people actually lived.
The Bible serves as a book that records a culture. Nothing more. -
Yes. I'll agree with you that nature is extremely spectacular. The harmony in natural law is evolution, my dear anon. Glorious evolution.

Einstein. Great man. Believed in Spinoza's god. A god that was non-interfering and was very laid-back.
No one is infallible. If you believe for one second that because a man believes in god, you should as well is silly. Yeah, you could turn that around on me, but I don't believe in god simply because of smart men. -
If god, as I believe, is a complete fabrication of humans' intelligence, there will never, ever be any sort of evidence found in any and all areas of research. It's just like me claiming that there's invisible birds right above your head right now. If you reached up and tried to touch them, you would fail every single time as they would all fly away. I could expand on that idea and claim that there is a leader of these invisible birds that commands them and so on with other ridiculous claims.
My point is that since gods are fairy tales, there can never be any evidence found for them.
