Last night I signed up at www.christianforums.com and there was a section called "Questions by non-christians". Someone entered a question "Does that mean there is no god" and I simply quoted that and said yes. But apparently, only christians are allowed to answer the questions of non-christians so I was immediately banned, and my ip is now blocked from even entering the site.

My question is, why the fear? I didn't realize that that section was xtian only, but banning someone for that is pretty lame. Reminds me of the borg "Resistance is futile, prepare to be assimilated"

I'm having a bit of a crisis.
I have an atheist friend and she tells me not to believe, and calls christianity. She points out all these inconsistencies in the bible and tells me about all this corruption and stuff within the church. She says that God cannot exist, because the whole idea is contradictory. She tells me that any educated person who goes to their death bed believing they'll live on in a new world, is foolish and should never have been educated because 'it didn't work'. She believes in the notions of evolution and the big bang. I really need help, all the things she's telling me make logical sense, but i don't want to abandon my lord Jesus.
Has anyone got any things that i can tell her that will change her mind from atheism and convince me of my faith. I'm really in need of help here. Thanks everybody!!!

That was a post i put up there. Let's see how they answer. I wonder what quality of answer i'll get back. Jon already proved christians aren't all dumb hicks and has a good basis for his belief. I wonder if they'll be the same.

This is copied and pasted from the general rules section of Christian Forums.

7. You will come in here with the attitude and mindset that you are not always right. Stonewallers, and trolls need not apply (and hence will be happily removed from the board). This includes people on both sides of the debate.

Ultimately the motto for this board is:

"The truth is evident as far as we are willing to see it in its totality."

In short, the more willing you are to consider another person's viewpoint, the more productive to reach this goal of finding the truth, you will be.

Your comment was petitio principii, unsupported, and biased (in the sense that instead of arguing FOR your position you stated FROM it). They clearly stated you would be banned for such things and did so when you broke the rules by which you agreed to abide. It should be dually noted that a good friend of mine, a Christian, arguing for God, made a comment that was much the same, and was treated just like you. So . . .

Hi Valhalla! I post on there sometims as 2001MustangGT

I agree that CF is a pain sometimes. The moderators have no accountability and Ive seen rather inconsistent and rash behavior from them.

On IIDB there are a few threads discussing this issue. And comparisons are made between mod stuff at IIDB vs. CF and its clear IIDB has a better moderator system.

Not suprisingly though, since Cf and its mods base their whole mindsets on conclusions before evidence.

Here's my problem...every officicially atheistic government has exterminated believers just as rapidly as time and technology and political reality allows.

So why are atheists so suprised that believers are wary of them?

Even the Guiness Book of World Records lists Stalin and Mao as the greatest mass murderers of all times...makes the inquisitors and the crusaders look like wimps.

MrCynic38
12-25-2004, 02:57 PM
ARF, you're mistaken. Stalin and Mao are two of the greatest mass murderers of the 20th century. And communism isn't offically atheistic, its secular. And the didn't exterminate theists, they exterminated the capitalists and such that stood against them.

Atheist Reisistance Front
12-26-2004, 11:09 AM
One thing we do know...Hitler was a liar, like many politicians.

We also know that his private remarks on relgion were different from his public remarks...Albert Speer talks about this in "Inside the Third Reich".

And Hitler, according to Speer, Shirer, Bullock, and Hugh Trevor Roper of Oxford indicate that Hitler venerated Nietzsche. He misused Nietzsche of course, just like he misused Darwin, evolution, and Christianity as he saw fit, but Hitler nevertheless venerated him.

And there is no doubt Nietzsche was a raving atheist.

So what's the deal? The suspcion is that while Hitler may have made references to Christianity his private beliefs were far different.

I think he was an atheist.

He certainly lived like he would never have to answer to any higher power and that there was no one and nothing superior to him.

Illuminati
12-26-2004, 03:50 PM
Sigh, since I know a little about this subject I will enlighten you. Hitler believed in the literal meaning of Adam and Eve. He believed that those two were the foundation of the aryan race. He also believed that natural selection occured, however all races that evolved through natural selection (the non-aryan races) were inferior to those who came from Adam and Eve. He also blamed the jews for the death of christ. So no, he was not an atheist, because by definition no atheist can believe in Adam and Eve.

MrCynic38
12-26-2004, 08:45 PM
He didn't live like he'd never have to asnwer to anybody. He belived that he was doing god's work. He thought he would be rewarded in heaven. Much like the muslim extremests of today belive they'll be rewarded. If he was an atheist, then why are all of the neo-nazis raving right-wing christians?

Atheist Resistance Front
12-27-2004, 09:06 AM
My previous point was that Hitler was a liar, like many politicians.

It is clear from Speers remarks in Inside the Third Reich that Hitler would say one thing in public and quite another in private and that Speer beleived he held all relgion in contempt...for example, he clearly believed in evolution and in his view of the survival of the fittest. This provided a basis for his racist notions and his idea of the elimination of the "unfit". (Straight from Nietzsche by the way..."elimination of the weak and defective, the first principle of our philosophy"; Nietzsche, the AntiChrist, sec. 2 and following.)

Of course he misused Darwin and Nietzsche, just like he misused history, religion, and everything he touched.

So my suspicion, and of course this is just my opinion and I am open to debate, is that he was actually an atheist.

And a supreme opportunist, using whatever was at hand to suit his purposes.

Ever heard of politicians doing that?

On a side note, someone had remarked that the Soviet Union was secular, not atheistic...I would disagree in that the Soviet Constitution called for atheism as the official position of the state.

A secular state would take no position either way, but respect freedom for all.

Hitler belived that the aryan races was created by god via adam and eve, and all of the other, inferior races, evolved through natural selection.

Yes, I would agree that you are in trouble if the above posts are typical of your reasoning process.

You asked if ARF read posts, and referred to Hitler believing in Adam and Eve.

Do you have any references to that?

ARF did give references; he referred to Inside the Third Reich and Speers's remarks on Hitler's private comments...it seems he was arguing that while Hitler may have made public references to relgion, his private beleifs were something else.

You totally ignored his point and made references without any back up.

So, as to Hitler believing in Adam and Eve, references please.

You may be right, so instead of engaging in a string of insults, just provide the references...should be simple, right?

solidsquid
12-27-2004, 03:12 PM
Just a note, Hitler began Mein Kampf while in prison....waaaaay before he even had any notion of being in politics and waaaaaay before he was Chancellor. So, for what reason would a "nobody" in prison need to dictate propaganda? Even in the latter 20's, his book still sold very slowly...hardly something as a means of propaganda or disinformation.

Also, Hitler was NEVER excommunicated and the church had even originally back him. The churches in Germany, Catholic and Protestant backed him...church services were made manditory in Nazi Germany... and many other items that served no propagandic usage whatsoever.

Goldsteinian
12-27-2004, 05:27 PM
I must disagree...Hitler began political activity in 1919, shortly after being discharged from the army, when he joined the German Worker's Party (the Nazis) according to William Shirer, Heiden, Bullock, Trevor-Roper, and Fest.

"Mein Kamphf" it is true was started when he was in prison but that was in 1924 after he had been thrown in prison for trying to stage a coup in Bavaria...such a person would have plenty of motives for writing propaganda and hoping for early release; which is in fact what he obtained after only about a year of his sentence.

But the original point remains, he was a liar and he hated the church according to Speer, Bormann, and Rauschnigg.

What were his true beliefs.

His only belief was in himself...no gods, no masters.

Like a good atheist.

"What is good? All that enhances the feeling of power, the Will to Power, and power itself in man. What is bad? All that proceeds from weakness." Sounds like Hitler but its straight from Nietzsche the Syphillitic...sec. 2 of "The Anti-Christ".

Hey, Illuminated One...how did Goldstein alter facts of history?

His discussion of Hitler's start in political activity and writing of Mein Kampf is exactly correct according to what I have been able to find in Shirer, Toland and mainstream biographies.

His references to religion helped him get out of prison in about a year...for a sentence of treason and trying to overthrow the government in the 1924 coup!

And, Cynical One, I notice that you ignored ARF's answer to the illuminated one...if you want to avoid historical facts, cover your own ass first.

It is clear that Hitler wrote Mein Kampf AFTER he began political activity, and while he was in prison...giving him plenty of reason to produce propaganda for his early release, which in fact was done after only a about a year or so.

Conclusion...Hitler was a liar who twisted whatever he needed to, to suit his purposes.

Darwin, evolution, Christianity, history, all were grist for his mill.

Why are atheists so afraid to admit that?

I mean, they are absolutely petrified.

I think they know the implications and will tell any lie to cover them up

It isn't my responsiblity to respond for illum, but paradox did ask ARF a question.

If hitler twisted both evolution and christianity, how can you say he was an atheist and not a christian?

Goldsteinian
12-28-2004, 02:48 PM
Because atheism, as many posters have defined it, makes no claims and can therefore be used or misused as one sees fit.

And because Hitler, in his private remarks to Speer, Bormann, Rauschnigg and others many of which were archived and captured intact after the war (Hugh Trevor Roper of Oxford) despised every aspect of religion and told Speer he would deal with the pastors "after the war" and make an end to them.

The whole accusation that if one atheist was really evil then all atheists are evil is fallacious in itself in any case. Also, Goldstein, Darwinian evolution has NOTHING to do with eugenics, that is social darwinism and you should be trashing Herbert Spencer for that.

Hitler was catholic pure and simple, he believed in a god and doing "his will" in exterminating the "killers of christ". You can rationalize it all you like to avoid cognitve dissonance but it won't change history.

You're right. You can misuse it by misrepresenting it. If you turn it into a philosophy, then yes, you can manuipulate it. In it's true form (the non-belief in a diety) Its not as easy to misrepresent.

12-28-2004, 06:17 PM
What you are misrepresenting is the defintion of atheism as if it were an absolute.

The definition of "lack of belief in a deity" is one defintion.

The definition that "there is no god" is another definition and is the one stated in the basic assumptions of this site.

What is phony is your pretence that the weaker defintion of "lack of belief" is THE defintion.

But I quite understand, because stating it as simply "a lack of belief" in god is easier to defend, and seems to be the trend these days.

I guess I simply "lack belief" in your defintion! hahahahahahahahahahahaha!

And that is the answer to the question Paradox posed...Hitler was a liar and he lied about what he was going to do and he even lied while he was doing it.

But I will say this then...Lenin, Stalin, Trotsky, Mao, Pol Pot, Sartre (advocate of terrorism) and Sanger (advocate of eugenics) were all atheists pure and simple.

12-28-2004, 07:02 PM
Now you are lying...Germany was not a nation of believers. It was one of the most scientifically advance societies on earth. Higher Criticism had gutted the Bible, and Haeckel's evolutionary theories were dominant.

The college students supported Hitler in mass...the universites rolled over...professors like Heidegger fell all over themselves signing up for Hitler.

Scientists collaborated to provide Hitler the most advanced weapons of the time, jet aircraft, ballistic missles (gotta love von Braun for that) you name it.

And when priests or pastors (like Niemoller and Bonhoeffer) protested he locked em up or shot em.

Are you that desparate to distort history, or do you really not know anything of that era?

But I will say this then...Lenin, Stalin, Trotsky, Mao, Pol Pot, Sartre (advocate of terrorism) and Sanger (advocate of eugenics) were all atheists pure and simple.

This is a fallacious line of reasoning is following that if many "evil" individuals are associated with non-belief, then non-belief is evil as well...that is simply not true.

Oh yeah, and let's not forget another atheist great, Dr. Kevorkian...a real gem by any standard.

Kevorkian performed euthanasia upon those who chose to do so. They were in great amounts of pain from items like terminal illnesses. The ridiculousness of saying that Kevorkian was "bad" for what he did is relative in a moral sense. The state had decided it can dictate if people can die or not. Euthenasia is a far better route than dying a slow and excrutiating death over years. The legislative view on the subject is heavily influenced by personal beliefs and (who would have thought) religion.

The point? Atheists have nothing to brag about.

Who's bragging about what? People who commit atrocities can be found in any belief system, any country, any ethnic group, etc. Such behavior knows no boundaries...even the Christian religion.

Also, the "which group has worse people in it" area of discussion is futile...it addresses nothing of pertinence.

But if you want to sling around atrocities claims, how about current events:

Here's some more information for ya:

This article presents the actual note page from which Hitler uses the Bible as the monumental history of mankind for which we can give thanks to Werner Maser for bringing it first to publication in his book, "Hitler's Letters and Notes."

Hitler wrote these private notes while in his 30s and they predate his political career. Although Hitler wrote his first political antisemitic letter to Adolf Gemlich on September 16, 1919, these notes show the Biblical influence on the young Hitler in regards to his views on race laws at around the same time. Hitler's 1919 letter without his notes to provide context has led many scholars to incorrectly conclude that Hitler's antisemitism started from a purely secular mind-set. The Biblical references, especially in regards to the race laws mentioned in these notes, clearly shows that Hitler had a religious reason for his Jewish hatred and his views on race laws which later turned into the Nuremberg laws.

Perhaps you would like to spend some time reading, gold. You can start with my post, in which I was merely correcting your misstatement regarding Paradox's actual question. Oh, sorry, was that a mistake, or were you just telling a lie?

You make a lot of really stupid assumptions about someone you know nothing about. I have studied this period quite a bit, and lived in Germany when I was a kid. My dad grew up in 1920's and 30's Germany and will attest to the fairly religious nature of the better part of the population. Your efforts to paint that society as highly secular just doesn't square with the facts. Sure, Germany had plenty of intellectuals who were also atheists, but the considerable majority of the population was not engaged in higher criticism of the Bible, or reading Ersnt Haeckel while sitting on the pot.

If Bonhoeffer's imprisonment proves that Hitler was anti-religious, then I guess Hitler's imprisonment of hundreds if not thousands of German Communists, mostly atheists like my grandfather, proves that he was anti-secular. If you want to play the numbers game, you won't win that one.

In fact, your own arguments do you in. On the one hand, you say that Hitler was a a liar -- with a pious face for the public, and a private secular one. Why would he feel the need to have a pious public face at all if the population was so thoroughly secular?

In the meantime, either cut the ad hominem crap, or go fuck yourself. Preferably both.

Oh yeah, and let's not forget another atheist great, Dr. Kevorkian...a real gem by any standard.

The point? Atheists have nothing to brag about.

there are millions of atheists on this planet, so no surprise that there were some morally corrupt atheists, but why dont we actually look at the bigger picture here. the fact is, according to the federal bureau of prisons only 0.209% of the prison population are non-spiritual atheists.

Now you are lying...Germany was not a nation of believers. It was one of the most scientifically advance societies on earth. Higher Criticism had gutted the Bible, and Haeckel's evolutionary theories were dominant.

So are you saying that science is incompatable with belief in god?

Also, before gold decides to say what i think he's saying. I should say that the low number of atheists in prison has little, if anything, to do with the low number in the population. about 15% of americans are non-religious. About 1/5 of 1% of the prison population is atheistic.

Goldsteinian,

You need to read with better comprehension. Look back over your posts, and realize that you haven't answered Paradox's question, which was, and I'm paraphrasing: Even if you could prove Hitler was an atheist, why would he have bothered to have a pious public face? You simply haven't answered that question. That's what I posed to you in my first post on this thread, and your response was to call me a liar.

So grow up already. Stop calling people liars. It's just plain wrong, and makes you look like an idiot.

Germany had a lot of believers in the 20's and 30's; it was a highly organized society with active party/church affiliations. Religious instruction was required in public schools, which continued into at least the early 70's, when I was in school there and had to get a specific exemption from religion classes from my parents, who refused to make me sit through that crap.

The considerable majority of Germans lived in small towns or rural areas, and you simply cannot ignore their religious beliefs. You also cannot ignore the problem that Hitler felt he had to appeal to their religious sensibilities.

We are not misconstruing your argument at all. You want to say that Hitler was an atheist, because his private conversations prove it (an argument frankly for another day). Apparently, you want to prove that bad people in history include atheists.

When we answer that Hitler's public piety indicates his belief that Germany's religious sensibilities had to be pandered to, you answer that Germany was predominantly a secular society. Leaving aside the fact that this isn't true, it also isn't an answer.

War's causes, of course, are complex, but it would be difficult to overestimate the disastrous role religion played in World War II. Distrust, fear and hatred of Jews was a lesson Hitler learned early in life. It was taught by his church and reinforced by his culture. It became his obsession, his version of "the Lord's work." That Hitler, that supreme villain of the 20th century, could see himself, and be seen by others, as "providentially" guided, protected and inspired should certainly serve as an ominous clue to the dangers of religious belief. Just as the Vatican umbrella could be maneuvered to shield the massacres of Serbs by Catholics in Yugoslavia, so can religion validate any behavior, any atrocity, any war.

A grouping of individual parts or elements that compose a unified body of unspecified size or quantity: “Take mankind in mass, and for the most part, they seem a mob of unnecessary duplicates” (Herman Melville).
A large but nonspecific amount or number: a mass of bruises.
The principal part; the majority: the mass of the continent.
The physical volume or bulk of a solid body.
Abbr. m Physics. A property of matter equal to the measure of an object's resistance to changes in either the speed or direction of its motion. The mass of an object is not dependent on gravity and therefore is different from but proportional to its weight.
An area of unified light, shade, or color in a painting.
Pharmacology. A thick, pasty mixture containing drugs from which pills are formed.
masses The body of common people or people of low socioeconomic status: “Give me your tired, your poor,/Your huddled masses yearning to breathe free” (Emma Lazarus).


Not only that, but I was referring to everyone in this thread... especially those in the first page, who BRAGGED about doing exactly what I was accusing you of.

Oh wow, guess I was wrong. You guys aren't unified or a group of individuals.

:shocked:

But now I'm wondering why you take offense that I'm mad at people for doing that if you didn't do it. It seems illogical, since you claim to support the freedom of speech down below.


oh no, our conspiracy plot has been uncovered

Tell me, why else, then, would you people would yaying and clapping to trying to make Christians seem like idiots?

Oh wait, I forgot, you guys aren't part of a mass so therefore it's not really a plot but rather a collective of thoughts... which would make it a mass... which would mean I'm bigotted.

Garwsh, your logic is confusing!


oh, so now "us guys" cant spell. were you raised a bigot?

OMG LOL! An American-Indian female lesbian liberal witch was raised a bigot? Wait until I tell the guys.


take a look in the mirror

LOL! This coming from the QUEEN (or is it king, since you deny GUYS, a generic term for both male and female companions, I really cannot tell your gender... although judging by your immature outbursts and ultra-sensitivity that happen to be a one-time-a-month deal, I'd say you were female and on PMS).



if?

Yeah, if. You know, if...

( P ) Pronunciation Key (f)
conj.

In the event that: If I were to go, I would be late.
Granting that: If that is true, what should we do?
On the condition that: She will play the piano only if she is paid.
Although possibly; even though: It is a handsome if useless trinket.
Whether: Ask if he plans to come to the meeting.
Used to introduce an exclamatory clause, indicating a wish: If they had only come earlier!



as "us people say".

As "you people" say. I am not a part of your religion or forum (or agenda), so therefore it's a "you" and not an "us". Us suggests inclusion into the plot, and I am not a part of "us" so therefore it would have been grammatically inaccurate.

I haven't been around long enough to know, but I know of several people who have been banned.

And if you let the opposing side speak, then how come you have mass posts on how Christians are stupid and their forums are hypocritical?

But that is fine, because we are all allowed to say what we want. For as long as I have been here, I have never seen anyone banned from the forum, regardless of their stupidity.

Fine, go ahead. And, I hate to tell you this but they don't ban if you say "Satan Bless You". I've seen people tag the end of their posts with that and live to tell the tale.

However, they do ban you for going into the Christian-respond-only sections and telling somebody asking a Christian a question about their faith, "God doesn't exist" or even bashing Christians.

It also depends on the moderator, because some people have even gotten away with what I said above.

However, the fact is that they don't get mad at you for having an alternative religion. My presence and the presence of others among them and the tolerance they show is proof towards that.

But they do have rules on behaviour.

Mispelling eh?

Yes. I did that on purpose, to show how it was.

Practise what you preach. For future reference, it is spelled "reddest".

As I said, I did that on purpose. That's like my Christian friend. Whenever somebody says "Xtian", she comes up with something like "Boodist, Wicken (or wikken), athiest (or aythist), Molsem (or mulsim), etc..."

Back to your previous quote you are stereotyping all atheists,

All atheists? Do you honestly believe that all atheists go to this single little forum here?

with whatever preconceived notions you have been taught, or have developed through your own limited experience.

LOL. As I said, I respected all atheists before coming here. Though some of you guys are cool, a lot of you write things like "Atheism is morally (or intellectually) superior to theism", which is, I believe, a superiority complex (arrogance) that needs to be dealt with, with haste.

Really, how do you want to be treated if you come to an atheist forum board, and say stupid, offencive things such as:

You people make me sick.
Hell, this entire board is a war zone to killing Christianity.
The Raving Atheist and all those burned down churches, raped nuns, and shootings alone are an example of what atheistic intolerance can do.


If I was being a farce in the name of my religion, building forums for the sake of flaming other religions and then denying that my site was dedicated to the basic intolerance of Christians, I should re-examine myself.

Especially if I'm quoting somebody who isn't Christian or atheist, so can therefore see both sides without favoritism or pejudgice.

(BTW, not meh awoeusome spellingas!)

You obviously have a closed mind about atheism,

So that's why I stand up for religious freedom and tolerance! I must have a closed mind against atheism!

and are only here for intellectual masturbation.

Oh wow, I lernt a neu tirm frum the auseomeness of ur superyoratee.

LOL!

If your belief suits you, then I am glad for that. But please, ease up with your hateful remarks, it only demonstrates your intellectual immaturity.

Does anybody else see the hypocrisy in this statement here?

I was getting mad at you guys for bashing Christians for their beliefs! But, alas, you are now mad at me because I pointed out the immaturity of going to a Christian forum just to start an internet war.

So far your posts have been unintelligible, without meaning or substance, and generally counter-productive.

Uh huh... people always say that when they get ruffled a bit, did'ja notice that?

If you have anything smart to say, please say it, otherwise stop wasting everyones time!

If that is a rule you follow, then I'd be glad to accept it as my own morality and then break it as you do.

If that is a rule you don't follow, then you have no right to push it onto me and I will therefore ignore it.

:kiss:

Then again, since you haven't been able to give a good argument against anything I said, or even a decent one, then I shall take this as another sign of your fading ability to even stand up on your own two feet.

If you have questions about atheism in general, or us as atheists, I would be glad to talk with you, but if you just want to stir up shit, then I won't even waste my time talking to you.

Hmm... now, who was the one who started this thread bragging about going into Christian forums to stir up shit?

Fine, go ahead. And, I hate to tell you this but they don't ban if you say "Satan Bless You". I've seen people tag the end of their posts with that and live to tell the tale.

However, they do ban you for going into the Christian-respond-only sections and telling somebody asking a Christian a question about their faith, "God doesn't exist" or even bashing Christians.

Not all atheists obviously (duh), however it is quite clear that you came here with your preconceived notions. Which is interesting since you tried to make the argument that "everyone is perfect", which is completely absurd and naive.

As I said, I respected all atheists before coming here.

Hmm, you respected all atheists, don't contradict yourself all at once please.

...building forums for the sake of flaming other religions and then denying that my site was dedicated to the basic intolerance of Christians, I should re-examine myself.


If you notice, I have not flamed your religion in the least. As easy as it would be to insult you and your "goddess", I am a tolerant person, and although I disagree with your beliefs, I acknowledge your right to have them. You must understand, this site is not designed for flaming any religion, if you notice, Jon/nutritionguy was a theist who came to this site, and did not suffer any disrespect from any of us "atheists". I disagreed with him on many issues, as I disagree with you on many issues, however he is able to speak in a polite and intelligent manner.

So that's why I stand up for religious freedom and tolerance!

I am sorry, Mr. Holier than thou, I say "Satan Bless You", however that is not intolerant, since satanism is an established religion. You trying to say that you stand up for religious freedom and tolerance is like hitler trying to tell people he is a socialist (maybe not that extreme), but I don't buy your little one liner.

I was getting mad at you guys for bashing Christians for their beliefs! But, alas, you are now mad at me because I pointed out the immaturity of going to a Christian forum just to start an internet war.


I go to christian forums, to express my beliefs in an intelligible and polite manner. I do not stand for hipocracy or bigotry. For your information, I spend most of my time on christian forums, defending homosexuality and gay-marriage, despite my unwavering heterosexuality.

Read that first part and tell me something. First off, did it say that ALL administrators banned you from their forums? Secondly, does it say they banned you for saying Satan Bless You or did they ban you for being a troll, which is what I said in the first place?

Suuuuuure

Nice comeback. You got me square in the eyes there. Boy, you have so shamed me, I think I'm going to say something twice as immature as that:

Nyah hah!

Not all atheists obviously (duh), however it is quite clear that you came here with your preconceived notions.

Preconceived notions? LOL! You are STILL on about that? Boy, you are one INTERESTING person, you know that?

"You can tell them about how I feel about these so-called preconceived notions. In fact, I choked on my atheist tongue as I laughed my bloody head off."

^ That was actually in a letter he sent to me.

Which is interesting since you tried to make the argument that "everyone is perfect", which is completely absurd and naive.

Oh yes, your spirit is perfect and really there is no flaw of yourself in your own mind (obviously), but according to my morals you're an ass just waiting for a nice place to squat.

Hmm, you respected all atheists, don't contradict yourself all at once please.

Yes, I respected ALL atheists before coming here. Now I only respect those who aren't like you. How is that, pray tell, contradictory?

Oh wait, nevermind. You believe that if anybody deserves respect, it must be you. You and your silly little comments like...

If?

When you have no clue what you are talking about... I don't think ANYBODY has a clue as to what you're getting on, in fact.

If you notice, I have not flamed your religion in the least.

I am a theist. Or did you forget that?

As easy as it would be to insult you and your "goddess", I am a tolerant person

Excuse me while I laugh. Tolerant people don't go to Christian forums and purposefully start wars by going into areas restricted and saying "Satan Bless You", while putting up direct insults to their religion right in their home base.

They also don't agree with people who post topics about how atheism is superiory to theism, and call religion a disease.

Sorry, but the title "Tolerant Person" goes with a little thing called "Tolerance", which you are not.

and although I disagree with your beliefs, I acknowledge your right to have them.

So that's why you're trolling and misquoting, eh? Because I have my rights to my belief.

You must understand, this site is not designed for flaming any religion, if you notice, Jon/nutritionguy was a theist who came to this site, and did not suffer any disrespect from any of us "atheists". I disagreed with him on many issues, as I disagree with you on many issues, however he is able to speak in a polite and intelligent manner.

Yeah, too bad I'm not disciplined, eh Yoda?

Unlike Jon, I lose my patience fast with people who say things like...

I am sorry, Mr. Holier than thou,

When speaking to a FEMALE person who stands up for ALL religions not just her own. Also, to one who doesn't read the bible so finds any comments about "holier than thou" to be a reflection of the speaker's spirit (which would make sense, since according to your morals you are flawless in your logic).

I say "Satan Bless You", however that is not intolerant, since satanism is an established religion.

So if I said, "God bless you" you wouldn't be offended? Hmm... I find that hard to believe, considering anybody who's called upon God you've direct witty little remarks like...

You trying to say that you stand up for religious freedom and tolerance is like hitler trying to tell people he is a socialist (maybe not that extreme), but I don't buy your little one liner.

Which are obviously fake and hold no ground, and are coming from the hypocrites mouth.

For one thing, where have I NOT stood up for Religious freedom and tolerance? I bet you cannot find a single instance.

I go to christian forums, to express my beliefs

So you BELIEVE in being intolerant, an asshole and the power of Satan?

in an intelligible and polite manner.

Satan bless you.

I do not stand for hipocracy or bigotry.

I should really stop right here. This is the perfect ending.

For your information, I spend most of my time on christian forums, defending homosexuality and gay-marriage, despite my unwavering heterosexuality.

God isn't real. Satan bless you.

Sure I can be a prick, and show people zero respect, but I only do so, if I am shown none.

God isn't real. Satan bless you.

Did you notice how I was quoted you during the entire thing?

I notice they say that, when people post stupid bullshit similar to the following:

Oh, now he's mad because I fed him his own medicine. Oh dear me. *fans face* Whatever shall I do to hide from his auseomensess!

Changed my stance?

Why would it make you feel any different if they came HERE and did it then if they skulked ELSEWHERE and did it in the MASSES?

It would seem that the more there is, the more you'd be opposed.

I don't mind people speaking their mind or views, however, there is a difference to creating their own site and coming to an atheist site to flame away. I feel for an atheist to do the same is no better.

I wasn't hasty in that generalization. In fact, before I found this website, I had a strong respect for the atheists.

I am not going to argue with you about this, since I can promise you that I was banned for saying "Satan Bless You" in a room that was open to atheists. I said it in response to someone saying "God Bless You" to me.

Nice comeback. You got me square in the eyes there. Boy, you have so shamed me, I think I'm going to say something twice as immature as that:

Why don't you stop speculating, unless you have some proof, please stop telling me what I was doing in another forum. For the last time, I was not in a restricted area.

So you BELIEVE in being intolerant, an asshole and the power of Satan?

I am not a satanist, however I should be allowed to say "Satan Bless You" nonetheless.

I haven't been to the christian forums, but I have had evangelists debate me at school and such. They don't realize i debate this stuff all the time, and I've heard every argument. So I either crush them, or in a rare case or two, convert them. It took an entire school year to convert an evangelist. I had to chip away at his arguments, change his preconceptions, and show him "the light" as it were. Before anybody gets on my ass, telling me i was being preachy. He initiated all of the arguments.

Last night I signed up at www.christianforums.com and there was a section called "Questions by non-christians". Someone entered a question "Does that mean there is no god" and I simply quoted that and said yes. But apparently, only christians are allowed to answer the questions of non-christians so I was immediately banned, and my ip is now blocked from even entering the site.

My question is, why the fear? I didn't realize that that section was xtian only, but banning someone for that is pretty lame. Reminds me of the borg "Resistance is futile, prepare to be assimilated"

They bellyache about the treatment they receive here, these xtians. But they are far less pleasant on their own sites. Apparently, it upsets them to be told there is no God. Imagine that. That is why I never let my atheism known, on the rare occasions I have been on a xtian board, usually on the BBC boards, I take some aspect of legitimate doctrinal interest and come at it from an irritating angle. Last time I said give me one logical reason why the mark of Cain could not be male pattern baldness? After all, the mark was placed to be clearly visible by God, and it couldn't have been black skin as so many righteous white xtains have argued because it had to survive the Flood through Noah's family if it were to exist today. Noah seems like a good candidate for baldness. A simple, effective way of giving those in the land of Nod a heads up. I think most of the xtians that got pissed off at me were the bald ones. They thought I was just being a wise ass. I was being a wise ass, but it was extra funny because not one of these people could come up with a single argument why it would not be baldness. They just didn't want to BELIEVE it was baldness, and so it wasn't, just like they just want to believe in God, and so he exists.

CALLING ALL UK ATHEISTS, AGNOSTICS AND HUMANISTS! With regard to the 'Jerry Springer, The Opera' incident, is it not time all god ignoring beings responded? Surely it is time that a mass complaint by atheists etc. concerning either a particular edition of Songs of Praise or religious broadcasting in general was organised. I am sure that more than 50,000 complaints could be mustered. If such an event were to occur, it might persuade the superstitiously challenged to consider that there are at least two sides to a coin. After all those of us who watch television and pay a licence fee are being forced to pay for the transmission of religious propaganda.

Not banned from this site yet and I'm a Christian! It all depends on what you say and how you say it. Pretty obvious stuff.

Paul123: Atheists believe that mankind will eventually figure it all out. Therein lies the belief. If mankind had total and complete knowledge then there would be no need to believe in anything. Belief in god is born from unanswered questions. Atheists believe in man's ability to eventually answer everything worth answering. I for one can't muster up that much belief.

Except, Moron, Golstein means nothing in German, only Goldstein does. Your ancestors came to Europe and took the German surname of Goldstein. You can't be so fucking ignorant you are not aware of this. At some point, the "d" got dropped. Maybe they were trying to pass some place, and given the virulent anti-semiticism of that time, one can hardly blame them. But you can spell it F-U-C-K-H-E-A-D, if you like. It's still Goldstein to me.

My latent homeosexual masturbatory references? That pass for an insult where you come from? Sheesh, Emanuel, trust me, it's lame. Okay, I admit maybe I exaggerated a bit just to be a shit. I'm sure you only masturbate three times a day, not five, and whether you picture in your mind naked men or women, or even a billy goat, is none of my business. I got no hang ups in that regard, whatever floats a guy's boat.

I have not seen any substantial contributions on this site, academically or philosophically.

Other than a place to bullshit, why is IT here?
Because not everyone is as ignorant as you.

What was anti-Jewish in my remarks? Did I call you a kike or a heeb? No. But you just called me goy, and considering you did so while telling me to stick comments up my ass, if any racial invective has been tossed around on this thread, it is by you, Emanuel.

You now have a number of posts on this site and not one of them has any substance philosophically or spiritually. Not sure why you stopped off here except to wise off, something you are not very good at, by the way.

Your assumption I am a white redneck from South Dakota is also way off base, like everything else you've posted on this thread. I am a breed off the reservation. My sister married a Jewish gentleman from Rochester, New York. They have two beautiful children they have raised in the faith. Becuase they are such nice people, I am assuming your unfortunate personality is an individual failing, and not something indicative of Jewish people in general.

Jimmy, you know that when you invoke Hitler's name in a thread, it's a sure sign of your intent to kill the thread.

Right, Jimmy B? BTW, how's the weather in KC?

Hi Golstein. Hitler was a murderous tyrant dictator. He was not a cocksucker. My wife is a cocksucker, as is every woman I have known intimately. I assume my mother and grandmother were cocksuckers, too, as most sexually well adjusted women are. There are many men who are cocksuckers, this one can't deny, and if it works for them, fine, but to call Hitler a cocksucker is to insult decent upstanding cocksuckers everywhere.

We've had this argument. If you want to continue to post stupid assertations backed up by no evidence and add nothing to the conversation, you'll soon be banned.

Jimmy Blair of KC has quite a trail of antagonistic postings at various sites:

dear punks: when the atheists get control, would it be best to set up gulags for the slobs who will not give up their religious beliefs or would the Red Chinese brainwashing method be best?
I think all atheists could get inspiration from Trotsky's autobiography in which he described the feeling of liberation and courage to act that he received from his atheism; without it he would not have had the will to lead the Red Army to victory over the stupid masses who would not give up their beliefs.
How about planning a Trotsky day? Its not just for commies you know!
Sincerely, Jimmy the Crusader.

There have already been, in the twentieth century, several political parties that were officially atheist.
It did not work then, it will not work now, and to think it will is irrational and is a form of insanity.
There's more, for anyone who cares to dig. :)

Ohh.. "A Theist" is probably Jimmy too.

I don't think Hitler was gay, maybe bi who knows. What does he have to do with anything?

Again, I don't think there's any evidence to back up Hitler being gay, he may have had a job at a fudge plant in his youth but I doubt it. And he wasn't an atheist, he was Catholic.

First off, "a liberal free thinking fruit" can't be a "fundie." Fundies are moral conservatives. Just the opposite. If you can't handle basic political definitions, I am not sure where any conversation can go with you, except nowhere.

Secondly, immediately calling us "arrogant morons" on so little provocation is a pretty fair indication you are some sort of unsavory brand of board manipulator, and frankly, it gives me the creeps to post to you. Odds are very good you are role playing, that you are both Golstein and A Theist.

No point in asking you to leave. This is what you are all about, how you get your kicks, it's like asking a fly not to eat shit and pester people.

Since you are a theist, apparently, some scripture---"Like the dog returning to its own vomit, so the fool returns to his folly." I'm sure we will keep seeing you around.

And then watch him report it to the service providers when he found out you have been posting the e-mail on the internet in violation of his privacy.

Hahahahahaha...

I'll watch you both squirm.

Go ahead.
