nah, a higher power is a constant, something you can always believe in - the same can't be said about believing in yourself
I can definitely see the appeal of religion


belief in the imaginary becomes a problem when you are constantly disappointed by lack of results
whereas with yourself you can be disappointed and impressed but its all you either way
i can for sure see the appeal
i can also see the appeal of Santa claus and the easter bunny but we all gotta grow up and face reality some day

No, what prevents me from understanding is that I do not speak Atheist, which by the way is a non-prophet organization.


what does it mean to "speak athiest"? intelligent logical conversation and arguments where my reasoning is based on something beyond "the bible says so"?
you sir should probably not reproduce
also atheism is not an organization we dont have meetins, no buildings, no tax write offs just a group of people who happen to agree that religion is awful

People who think as religion as only because the bible said so status are lowly in their thinking. Religion still exists to this day because it has a logical philosophical appeal. Don't think that there aren't people smarter than you who are secular and non-secular, they exist, everywhere.
Maybe you should increase your knowledge and perspective as to how things work in this world rather than be so closed minded.
Sure, some people exploit resources within their churches but the churches and their organizations do an overwhelming amount of good compared to the overall population, only charities eclipsing their contributions to the betterment of the world.

i want you to understand this guy has been saying things like he believes a disobedient child should be stoned to death if he doesnt obey his parents because he will grow up to be a heathen
thats the kind of person we are speaking to
religion still exists because people are indoctrinated from birth
hard to argue with what you are taught is reality when you arent shown anything else

People who aren't indoctrinated from birth also follow the path. People from birth also turn atheist so your argument has literally no merit.

Replace god with gallows and it becomes funny.

But that aside.

I think the gallows stop a lot of people from raping and killing.

if you're still trying to have a conversation with a person who believes in magic as a scientific truth, you played yourself

Speaking atheist means to get all emotional and bottled up about the entire concept. It is being so close-minded that you will respond in anger and insults.

You should know that whenever I have presented or explained something about Christianity, it is researched and investigated very thoroughly.

So you would like to have people like Brett Peter Cowan in this world? Imagine an entire nation of people like him when the children eventually grow up.

That is your logic, that is the kind of evil we are talking about.
