Think about it. Suppose God Almighty is real. Suppose for the moment that the Bible character Lucifer was real. This is what his crime was - not letting God be God, but him being his own God.
Maybe it makes you see things differently, maybe it doesn't, but I find it interesting. We are all just as bad as the Devil.

3 RespuestasNo. Atheists may believe in themselves, that is called healthy self esteem. But see themselves as god? Nope. Do you believe there is a little teapot orbiting Mars? If I had all the belief in the world in it, you just wouldn't believe it. That lack of belief is what an atheist has. Absence. The closest thing an atheist has to faith is the scientific process is the best way to find the facts

The devil is a great guy. If it weren't for him, humanity would still be brainwashed. It's thanks to the devil that we can see the devil doesn't exist.

Christians often say atheists shouldn't talk about a subject they don't understand, that subject being religion. On this forum at least, i've seen very few christians that have any clue at all what atheists are. The OP for example, has no clue whatsoever. Atheists don't worship anything. I'm a traditional atheist, I don't believe a god exists at all. That doesn't mean I worship myself due to being atheist. The fact that i'm an egotistical, vain narcissist is why I worship myself. Nothing at all to do with not believing in any gods.

For half of you, this went over your heads, and the other half are too bogged down in defining things to self reflect for a moment.

Editado por Mephiston646: 9/18/2015 7:57:07 AMAtheism is a lack of belief in one or more god(s). There is nothing in atheism where someone can be there own deity. Either because that person does not find any evidence compelling for a deity to exist (traditional atheism); or you have the agnostic atheist who doesn't believe any of the deities established by religions to be correct (typically for the same reasons as a traditional atheist), but will say that the possibility for one or more god(s) exist. Your original statement therefore has no premise. Before you can make any kind of accurate statement or arguemeant, you must first understand the terminology that you are using. A narcissist might worship themselves, but that depends on how far they take their perceived perfection. Not all narcissists worship themselves, but some may. I understand that Lucifer is supposed to be the Bible's personification of Pride, hence the example of narcissism. Your whole argument is based on an unconfirmed assumption of the your Bible being correct. A crime scene investigator does not use assumptions because it could lead to the arrest (and sometimes execution) of an innocent. So, they use physical evidence, science and history to determine the most likely chain of events. Mistakes are made, but are far less frequent than those made during the Salam witch trials.

When I see your name I can pretty much guarantee you'll be talking bollocks. You haven't disappointed.

The whole point of atheism is that you don't worship anything.

No, we don't worship ourselves. We just don't believe in any form of religion.

Lol, the "we are all sinners" shame game has been going on since the beginning of Christianity, it was part of many religions before that. Fear is used to control people, to persuade them to be obedient.
