The Whining and Bitching Thread

[BlackMetalWhiteGuy]

My ex and I are both athiests and we make fun of fundies all the time. There's also another athiest who likes me, but she's like twice my size and I'm just not into that, but we have some entertaining conversations.

So far I've only had a few people try to challenge me on being an Atheist, but so far I've been smarter than all of them, because evidentally my acquaintances and I are statistically representative.

 

[Eligos]

To what statistics do you refer?

 

[waif]

Ozzman is being a faggot and not answering my PM re the classifieds thread.

I tried to kill myself one time.

Not hard enough

You mean there are others out there besides SAO and Tara?

Neurotica, Charlie/Nuncheon, and theoretically Val. I guess Omni doesn't post here any more (hey, just realized that, awesome); from the picture Dodens posted she was attractive but way too much of a bitch.

To what statistics do you refer?

Presumably to the statistics indicating that atheists perform better on standardized intelligence tests.

 

[divine_torture]

Yeah, this is what happened with me. We didn't understand eachother and could not communicate on 'that' level that she feels causes love to flourish more, or something.

Gay. We don't get along because we don't like each other. Hehe.

 

[V.V.V.V.V.]

as good a reason as any, honestly.

 

[divine_torture]

Yeah, pretty much. After 2 years together you get irritated easier. I love her to death, but sometimes I'd love to choke her a tad.

 

[BlackMetalWhiteGuy]

That's right. There's a significant negative correlation between intelligence and religiousness.

 

[seedofvengeance]

I was a closet atheist for a year and recently came out about the whole thing because I realized it was nothing to be ashamed of.

Do you read your posts? Or do you just let if fly?

 

[Eligos]

I know it was redundant. But I didn't want the post to be as brief as it could have been.

 

[cookiecutter]

There is no God so everyone should stop worrying and have lots of pre-marital sex and be more chill

 

[Cythraul]

Atheism does not entail libertinism.

 

[waif]

I bet you if you did a survey of attitudes about that shit you'd find a strong correlation. Obviously correlation is not causation, blah blah blah, but I'm pretty sure that the average atheist will have more libertine views on sexuality than the average religiousity person.

 

[Cythraul]

I meant it didn't entail it as a normative position. Of course it's likely that the non-religious will generally be more laid back about such stuff.

 

[False Joe]

But I'm slowly gonna suck it out of her.

Surely that should be the other way round, AMIRITE?!

Please say that's a joke.

You people have to treat religion like fucking homosexuality or some shit? The only thing I've got from my parents is my mum saying she believes in ghosts, and my dad never saying anything. The only time I've been to church is for funerals.

I know a Christian girl, and she's basically a fucking nympho. Can't leave her and the BF alone for five minutes without them going at it.
Mind you, she ain't that christian. She only admitted she was christian after a few months of me and my mates making off hand god jokes all the time.

I know, I was just saying what I thought people should do

My dad is a broadcasting engineer for a conservative Christian lobbyist organization, Focus on the Family. I go to school next to one of the six megachurches in the US, New Life, you know, the one Ted Haggard preaches for. Literally next door to it. I have to drive past pro-life activists about once a month on my drive home. I think that covers the reasons I feel the way I do about religion.

 

[SentinelSlain]

Tbh I have some sympathy for pro life activists sentiment since hearing about that case where an abortion clinic was being used by the owner to harvest fetus for eating.

 

[cookiecutter]

Focus on the Family is a horrible organization. They have some really bigoted and harmful views.

 

[Eligos]

Like about homosexuality being a fucking social disease? They have this program to "assist friends and family of homosexuals". Such bullshit.

 

[diddykoi6]

i guess atheism isnt a big thing in UK hardly know any religious people.
