You're still an idiot. Atheism, as well as all religions are complete jokes. You cannot be sure your god exists. It's impossible. Therefore, religion is a laugh. You, in turn, cannot be certain god doesn't exist. Therefore, atheism is a laugh as well. Being Agnostic is the only modest preference. You don't know whether god exists or not, and you don't care. The existence of God isn't important to me. He exists? That's cool. I'm not gonna change my lifestyle upon this discovery though. He doesn't exist? Cool. I'm not gonna lose sleep over what happens when I die without the existence of heaven or hell. Religion is a complete waste. It's the hindrance on the advancement of our world as a whole, and until it's looked past, we'll always have those chains holding us back.

You are no better than the religo's. By saying "the only modest belief is _______" you are pretty much acting like his mother minus the punishment.

You care because you called him an idiot lol

Maybe idiot was a little harsh, I'll admit that ^ ^;; [i]<3~~Shino Asada~~<3[/i]

Sorry but you are incorrect. When we see legions of militant atheists attacking any religion and being united in their faith in atheism, we'll call it a religion. That is what dictates a religion and what people need to understand is that there's a difference between religion and faith. Faith in a god is often what makes people religious, however, it more directly makes them theists. If you do not have faith in a god, you are [b]not[/b] a [b]theist[/b]. The only criteria that makes someone an [b]a[/b]theist is not having that faith or belief. You are not agnostic. You are atheist. I suppose you could argue that you're an agnostic atheist, but that is just somewhat redundant and unnecessary.

Editado por Apocriya: 9/30/2015 9:52:13 PMNot necessarily. Show me proof of God. That proof will show me that God exists. In my mind, I will forever know "God exists. I've seen proof". Whether I choose to act on this is up to me now, however, I know I will not. The existence of God has no impact on my life. Knowing if he exists or not will never change the way I live. I simply don't care. So no, I'm not an atheist. Atheists will argue for days proof against God. I have no reason to argue, because both sides of the argument are equally vague.

Editado por ttv/RitzyCheese: 9/30/2015 10:00:17 PMWell I thought I would try to inform you of the correct information, but it would seem that you don't know the definitions of these words and can't comprehend them properly when given to you. Whether your life is affected by the existence of a god or not, has no bearing on whether you're an atheist or theist. It's very simple. If you are NOT a theist, you are, by definition, an atheist. And you are not theist so... extrapolate

Wow, so patronizing. Call it what you'd like, I don't mind. [i]<3~~Shino Asada~~<3[/i]

Atheism can also mean you don't [b]think[/b] there's a god. I don't have a religion but that doesn't mean I think there's no chance of a god.
-
That would be agnostic
-
No that would be atheistic.

Your an idiot for questioning and putting down others because of what they may or may not believe in. Keep it to yourself. Nobody likes scum like you

Except atheism isnt a religion
-
Atheism isn't a religion! Saying atheism is a religion is like saying not playing sports is a sport!

Editado por Apocriya: 9/30/2015 9:38:46 PMThen I'll rephrase that as atheism as a philosophy. Regardless, things like gods shouldn't exist in our modern world. It's outdated and old. We're above that now. We could be so much more. Even if it turns out they did exist, the things that religion limits you to is a joke. You become a slave. Literally. I once had a Mormon friend (wonderful person. Absolutely brilliant and nothing against her personally) who literally said she's proudly a slave to heavenly father. Who wants to think like that? It's repulsive. [i]<3~~Shino Asada~~<3[/i]

And that's exactly what atheists believe.
-
To an extent, but I've never met an atheist who said "I believe there's a chance god exists". They're set in their ways and know Agnosticism exists as the middle ground. [i]<3~~Shino Asada~~<3[/i]

Forums of atheism are religions, such as the church of the flying spaghetti monster, but atheism itself isn't a religion, it is a belief. it does not follow a bible, have a set of rules, it does not have weekly mass.
-
The belief in believing in nothing...?
-
Belief and religion are separate things, religion is a group of people that center along the same idealogical consensus and are supposed to follow a set of guidlines (aka bible, quaran, watchtower, ect...) athiest do not follow a set of rules other than their own and do not have a congregation with meetings. And you can believe or not believe in god and still be without religion either way.
-
If you still believe in a god, you're agnostic.
-
Oxford dictionary states that Belief: Something one accepts as true or real; a firmly held opinion or conviction Religion: The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods As you can see religion involves worship whereas believing in our not believing in god doesn't necessarily require worship

Editado por Mister Miseek: 9/30/2015 10:09:39 PMAgnostic is a term for a belief that there could be a god, you can believe that there is a god without being a member of a religion, and same goes for not believing

If you Google the word "religion," aethiesm fits very perfectly into it.
