God Only Exists In The Minds Of The Deluded.

[SparklyKid]

Endless bible quotes mean diddly squat.

[Mozz71]

Theland, come quick! Sparkly wants a scrap!

[Zacs-Master]

Deluded and weak, Sparkles.

I'm not sure about "weak", it certainly requires some stubbornness. "Deluded" may be literally true... but I'm not sure anyone is going to agree, if they believe it.

[youngmafbog]

If it makes them happy then what's the problem?

The only issue I have with religion in general is where people want to 'force' their beliefs on others. How many wars have had this as the underlying problem?

[Mozz71]

I don't honestly care if people believe in God or not. If it brings them comfort or solace, they can believe in the Easter Bunny for all I care. A problem only arises if they start to try and push their beliefs onto me.

People have the right to worship whichever God they wish, and that's a right I also respect, just as long as they respect my belief to worship none.

[Mozz71]

Well, that's annoying. YMF wrote basically the same as me, only shorter and more eloquently.

[pixie374]

I agree, mozz...

//problem only arises if they start to try and push their beliefs//
And equally annoying is an atheist trying to push his/her opinions.

[youngmafbog]

That is true Danny - but most dont and only react when poked whereas some groups of religious people insist on banging on your door and wont leave until you threaten to set the dog on them.

[dannyk13]

Ymb, I was referring to the OP.

[Mozz71]

//And equally annoying is an atheist trying to push his/her opinions.//

That's true. And neither can see they're as bad as the other.

[naomi24]

Oh, I don’t know Danny. I’ve never heard an atheist tell anyone they’re heading for punishment or damnation in the afterlife, and I’ve never heard an atheist speak in support of FGM or of child marriage. In the grand scheme of things atheists, on the whole, aren’t so very bad.

[Mamyalynne]

Get a soap box Skid.

[Mozz71]

//I’ve never heard an atheist tell anyone they’re heading for punishment or damnation in the afterlife//

No, but Ive also never seen a believer say that not believing in God is some sort of mental health problem. It's swings and roundabouts.

[dannyk13]

Naomi, if the OP had posted the OP as a question that would have been fine.

[weecalf]

I’ve said it before I’ve said it in Brighton .....

[naomi24]

I don't know what you mean, danny. I responded to your post which didn't address the OP.

[dannyk13]

Naomi, you were talking about atheists in general.I was being more specific.

[MallyJ]

Deluded ? maybe. Desperate ? Certainly. My favourite are those that believe that if they say sorry for their behaviour they will get to heaven......!!

[Theland]

Lots of noise here.
Is this a free for all? Bash a believer?
''BLM.'' (That's ''Believers Lives Matter.)
So take the knee and show some respect!
