From what I understand, the basics of Scientology are just about being a good person, and helping out others

I'm pretty sure the basics of Scientology are tax evasion and money.

I would try to persuade you all to join me in Apatheism, but they'll kick me out if I do that.

Just wanted to go back and appreciate this a little. I'm too smart for the rest of this thread, but this. Awesome.

Many thanks, sir, I was afraid everyone overlooked it in their valiant struggle over semantics.

tl;dr the thread but 'the old gods' are just as laughable as 'the new god'

 

[Captain Beard]

Yeah but the old gods created the universe in wicked awesome ways, like killing giants and using various parts of their bodies to form the heavens and earth!

 

[Anvil]

No one still believes in the Egyptian religions, we look back and we laugh at them... I can't wait till the day that the majority do the same with Christianity.

 

[Lord Foul]

Were you expecting that day to be within your probable lifespan?

 

[Captain Beard]

You doubt my immortality?

atheism isn't exactly a religion
Christianity (in specific) and religion (in general) are "belief systems"
when something horrendous happens (like a hurricane killing thousands of people) Christians say "Satan did that" and when something "good" happens (like a hurricane hitting the beach with no loss of life) Christians say "God did that" or "it's a miracle"
most people need some sort of deity to help them cope with things like hurricanes
also the whole "heaven and hell" thing is just a coping mechanism for death, when a loved one dies, we say that they're "in heaven" and the idea of heaven helps us through what would otherwise be extremely traumatic, when someone is horrendously evil, we comfort ourselves with the idea that, after death, they will be punished for doing things that hurt others

atheism on the other hand
is living your life without the psychological crutch of deity and proccessing and dealing with reallity as it really is
