In a way, atheism is just like another religion, because it separates part of society from others through different beliefs. I don't think atheism is any different from religions. It just doesn't include believing in a higher power.

Atheism in my view isn't necessarily a belief.  It's a lack of belief.  In that way it is different from most religion.  It is not affirming the lack of a god, it is simply refusing to accept a belief in god.  There is a difference.

Well, as they say, it's a non-prophet organization anyway!

Not all atheists hate people who have faith. A lot of my friends are atheists but they don't treat me any differently in the fact that I believe in God, nor do I to them.

This poll is fucking stupid and bias.

You believe in God? Fine, I don't give a shit. I certainly don't hate you solely because of that. I hate you because you can't make a fair poll, and because you couldn't post your little objection in Cam's thread.

But every religion believes in a different god. We simply believe in science. For every different view in Christianity, there is a different church you can follow. Atheism has something similar. It is not a religion, not really, but similar in many ways - in terms of the basics to it.

No, the world would not be better off.  Atheist or religious, we’re all human and capable of wreaking havoc on the world. 

The real debate should be whether the atheist worldview or a religious worldview is better for the world, when its tenet are actually carried to their logical conclusion, but that’s a different thread.

I think it takes much more strength as a human being to believe in nothing.  Quite honestly, the way I see it, religious people are simply god fearing people.  Churches have instilled a belief within their members that if they do not believe in god, accept christ as their savior, etc.. they will burn in an eternal hell.  When I was younger, I was a "Christian" or "god fearing" individual.  Once I sat down and actually thought about the logistics of it all I decided it wasn't for me, if there's a wrathful god out there who created me, gave me free will and loaded the planet with evidence that he doesn't exist, I will give him every ounce of pleasure he gets from sending me to hell.. I could never have faith in a god so arrogant.

And I don't hate people who actually have faith in something.  I hate people who look down on me, pity me and think that I'm going to hell because I'm not ignorant enough to waste 1/7th of my life worshiping that which does not exist...

I don't 'believe' in science - either I know it as true or I don't - not because I do not believe certain aspects of science to be true, but because I don't understand enough about them for whatever reason. 

Atheism is similar to religion in one major way - everyone's interpretation of what it is to be * differs.  In that sense, religion and atheism are more a philosophical question of self than anything else.

Where's the go fuck yourself option?

This is almost as retarded as someone starting a poll asking "Would the world be better without Nazis?", and then a Nazi going and making a poll asking "Would the world be better without anti-Nazis?".

So are you saying everyone has to believe in some kind of religion..... oh dear.
Shocking
sorry you feel that way

atheism goes beyond me, saying there is no god with absolute certainty. I really would like someone to explain me, because so far I see it you'd need almost an infinite amount of knowledge to justify your belief in this. Probably most people saying they're atheists actually mean they're agnostic. But anyway; No, we won't be better off without them. They counter most religions and seem to keep eachother in a reasonably friendly balance.

And cam, people that believe in something surely can be way more intelligent than you'd ever think, for one I'd say you're one of the less-intelligent bashers saying stuff like that.

I wouldn't say 'hate', I'd say 'look down upon'...

or 'seem to be more intelligent than' if you want to be really accurate.

How come Atheists are the ONLY people in the world who don't fall for your stupid fairy tale?

I'll explain this 1 last time.


God was created because there was a lack of answers.

A few thousand years ago the Aztecs worshiped a sun god. They thought he dragged it across the sky in a chariot. And they wasted sacrifices just to please him.

We now know this is false.

Christian god was created because we cant explain death, and because luck cant simply just be luck, it has to be a miracle from god.

The fairy tale god you grew up loving is equally as stupid sounding as the sun god, your just too ignorant to think those thoughts because 'god is all knowing' and your afraid even thinking those thoughts will get you sent to hell!

I'll give whoever thought up the idea of the Christian religion credit, he made a religion without any way to bust it. For example: Any scientific proof that makes god seem fake, is always a 'test of faith'...

First of all, if god wanted people to believe in him, he should just fucking prove himself. Free will, yeah right, he gives you 'free will' and then sends you to hell for making the wrong choice.

Nice, what an asshole.
