My 17 month old is beginning to worship Elmo.
I am all for the banishment of all forms of worship.
Unless, of course, he suddenly becomes a Daddy’s boy.
When are you goddamn atheists going to get off of your high horse?
First of all, I don’t give a rat’s ass about religion. There may be a god, there may not be. I don’t really give a fuck. Fact is, I give less of a fuck than you atheists do.
You atheists spend too much time trying to justify yourselves to society at large. Why don’t you just crawl into a hole and shut the fuck up? Because, here’s the truth… the majority of humanity believes in some type of supreme being. Whether it’s Christ, Allah, IPU, FSM…it doesn’t matter. The majority of humanity believes in something greater than themselves, and because you don’t, you’re ALWAYS going to be the odd man out.
Just deal with it, because it will NEVER change.
And those people that believe, they will NEVER trust you. To them, you have no morals, no soul. You’re outcasts, misfits.
You made your bed, so just lie in it and shut up.
Parody, too much coffee, a missive from the military wing of the Revolutionary Agnostic Front?
Here’s a clue, dumbass. You want to adopt a kid? Don’t put “atheist” on the application. Are you from fucking Mars? The world doesn’t like atheists. Period.
Oh, you had to be true to yourself. You’re an atheist so you had to make your pathetic piss-ant little statement against the powers-that-be. You’re a “free-thinker”, and nobody is going to take that away from you unless it’s over your cold, dead body. Yeah! Go you!
But, you didn’t get the kid. Because you couldn’t keep your goddamn pride out of it.
You want to adopt a kid? Next time, swallow your goddamn pride and say you’re a Mormon or something.
Dumbass.
Nice to see you back from suspension.
Yeah, that’s right. Back from suspension where you put me because I ranted (in the Pit, just as a reminder) and now I’m back.
Who else has gotten suspended from a rant in the Pit, I wonder?
Why don’t you make another special rule and ban me?
What I said in my above posts is true: If you atheists would just shut up about being atheist, and just go on about your lives, it would be easier for you.
Most of your problems stem from your own pride.
Any chance that you’d just shut up and go on? Did an atheist lick all the red off your Easter candy or something? Are atheists really making so much noise that it hurts your shell-like ears?
I haven’t read either of the court decisions, but I fail to see the problem here. I worship Almighty God in a manner totally agreeable to the dictates of my own conscience, and that conscience says he doesn’t exist.
Surely the “dictates of his own conscience” doesn’t mean a single, monotheistic, Western religion is the only true one in a multicultural world. That’s what the Bill of Rights was written to avoid. I suspect that’s why it was overturned.
I know I’m going to regret feeding you, but one of the glories of our Bill of Rights is that the government and its agents (like adoption agencies and the courts) cannot dish out or withhold services, benefits, or opportunities based simply on one’s religious belief system. And that includes atheism.
I, for one, am glad that it is so.
Which one of these was in the Pit?
What a lovely example of Christian humility and kindness.
Yeah, stop being all uppity, you atheists.
Yeah, OK dreamer.
The Bill Of Rights was written when?
Here’s a clue: There’s “America-the-way-it’s-supposed-to-be”, and there’s the “America-that-is.” Why be a deluded idiot? You’re living in “America-that-is”.
OK? Can you see that? Just keep relying on your Bill Of Rights and your Constitution and all that other crap like a good little poli-sci undergrad. Then go out in the real world and see why certain restaurants won’t serve you, certain companies won’t hire you, certain apartment complexes won’t rent to you…and they know how to cover their reasons up.
Here’s what you do: The next job interview you have, volunteer the information that you are an atheist. Do it in Georgia. See what it get’s you.
Where did I say I was a Christian, dumbfuck?
Well, if nothing else, this certainly proves to me that the persecution complex of atheists exists, even if God doesn’t.
[sarcasm]Yeah! Who cares about individualism or liberty or the constitution or fairness or any of that shit? If you want to get along in this country, just pretend to be like everybody else.[/sarcasm]
Wow. How about if you point to the doll and show us where a nasty freethinker touched you, Zambini? :rolleyes:
That’s right. There’s that good old atheist pride that gets you nowhere.
“Just pretend”. Exactly. If the sarge would have just swallowed his pride at being an atheist (You know, that I’m -smarter, more-enlightened-than-thou) pride, he’d have an adopted kid by now.
Might even have been a good parent. Too bad for the kid. He has to suffer because someone couldn’t keep his mouth shut. Just had to let the world know that he is a supreme, enlightened free-thinker.
Unitarians. We became Unitarians and recommend to all our “not of a faith” adopting friends to become Unitarians. There are plenty of atheist Unitarians.
See? There you go. Seems like I’m not so crazy after all. Sometimes, you have to disguise who you are to get what you want.
Hey, we like atheists plenty fine here.
Come to the UK! Containing many atheists and no Zambini. And probably less actual zambinis, too.
