Three men fucking one women

Well, Draper and White were educators, and White in particular was founding a secular university and wanted to discourage Church interference. So I don't blame 'em for pushing the idea that religion had always held back knowledge and progress. But it's today's online atheists (like the one below who said people were "jailed" for saying the Earth wasn't flat) who have kept alive the myth that our not-so distant ancestors believed in a Flat Earth, because it tells them what they want to hear about superiority and progress.

No knock raids aren't a problem? Seriously? Usually that is just reserved for drug dealers, where they storm in like KGB or Gestapo busting through the door like gangbusters. What kind of totalitarian society do you really want to live in? I even find this kind of crap squeamish even used on drug dealers. Let alone grandmothers who think the cops are home invaders and the cops shoot her dead over a small bag of pot.

Give it some thought. Its not possible for anyone to censor a belief.

Here's the whole problem with your argument. There isn't an "ideology" of atheism. Atheism is a singular stance or statement on one question. My being an atheist doesn't define me as far as what I believe morally, or ethically, or what I like or don't like. There's nothing with atheism that informs my actions that you could point to, as you have with religions. When a christian refuses service to a homosexual, or protests an abortion clinic, or funerals, or lobbies against birth control....there are specific beliefs you can point to that inform those actions from the specific religion in question. Atheism isn't a system, it doesn't have rules, it doesn't have mantras....or anything like that. The only thing all atheists have in common for certain is non-belief in god(s). I've been to atheist conventions where I've encountered drastically different personalities than mine. I've seen republican atheists, conservative, anti-abortion, racist, flat earther atheists, 9/11 conspiracy, belief in alien abductions......I mean all kinds of atheists and none of these things you can point back to and say "oh he believes that because of this scripture in the book of atheism".....because there is no book of atheism or ideology of atheism. Atheism doesn't mean a person believes in science, or is liberal, or is anti-religious, or has no morals...or anything like that. The only thing me being an atheist did, was force me to look at my beliefs deeply and decide what and who I wanted to be as a person. It also gave me a thirst for knowledge and a drive to live the best life I possibly could. By your own admission in your last sentence, we have no written dogma....so I'm not sure how you can call it a faith, when there's nothing to examine with regards to what we believe. Now as far as morality is concerned, I don't go to my "atheism" to inform that. I follow Humanism with is a moral system with a set of beliefs and can certainly provide an excellent reason why genocide is wrong. So instead of attacking atheism for what it isn't....how about you talk to an atheist on an individual level and find out what it is that the person actually does believe and stop assuming you already know everything about us. Your whole rant here kind of proves what I said before and why I come here....to clear up misconceptions and confusions....which you do have. Hopefully you learn from this.

In hindsight. That leaves out that she was probably angry and stunned and not thinking exactly perfectly enough for you? I won't fault what she did. You can, as you must be perfect when this happens to you. ??

so we should accuse trump of being anti-american and bully his wife over her appearance and speech, i mean, fair is fair, right?

Some of us...

ok, how about this: Creation, resurrection, miracles, floods for starters

The bible is a worthless crock of absolute BS without a single original thought. It has no place in modern society.

"I am willing to be persuaded if you can prove that I am incorrect."

Yeah, and then you look at the stats for terrorism in Europe and quickly realize that 90% of terrorism in Europe is done by Christians.

First, not that it is any of your damned business; my wife, was 26 when she was married, I was 32 and we were both virgins. Wedding night was a hell of a lot of fun discovering what we could do with and to one another!

There is a difference between a customized cake (that does not yet exist) and a cake that has already been designed and created, my lady.

Amen... just like California, Oregon and Washington.

You shall know them by their fruits... so yeah, believing things about words in a book does nothing to improve ones morality.

What do you think about the books on the Loch Ness monster?

Why would you change them?

Must look on phone!! Brb... Good one... It rolls down hill and my inbox is filled with..... Minutia... I
