Discuss Bonestructure's answer to: Coming Soon: Atheist Church?

Atheists have long criticised devout followers of faith. But now it seems Atheism is stealing from that very religious tradition by erecting a temple of worship. What do you think about the first ...

Heck, athiests spend more time thinking about God than many people who believe do. Denying it certainly, but that still makes it a religion.

If a little knowledge is a dangerous thing, then that makes me a burning truck filled with TNT hurtling through a rocket fuel depot.

Without one exception, all atheist governments have behaved atrociously because of their absolute fanaticism and their absolute intolerance of human freedom. 

 

If not for atheism, history would not have been written in blood, yet bloodthirsty atheists always try to "justify" their insane bloodshed to no avail.  All atheists are that violent because they were trained to be violent. 

 

One choice example of how atheists do things was one George Armstrong Custer, reduced from Major General to Lieutenant Colonel because of his poor discipline and drunkenness. 

 

Another choice example of how all atheists do people is the Tienanmen Square Massacre, carried out by the order of Mao Zedong personally.  There are no exceptions at all.  All atheists are that way specifically and then they insult us with denial games. 

 

 

 

Where atheism goes hideous atrocity follows because that is the only thing atheists can understand.  McCann-Physicalist is a perfect example of how all atheists think: with bullets, bayonets, and poison gas, just like Hitler before them.

"Fanaticism?" "Intolerance?"

Anonymous, I think you're the most fanatic and intolerant person I've ever seen. I have friends who are atheists and not one of them would hurt a fly. I have friends who are Christians and not one of them tries to make the rest of us follow their beliefs.

An atheist doesn't believe in the existence of God. A Christian does. That doesn't mean all atheists are bad and all Christians are good. If you think it does, then you're nuts.

Every religion has assholes. Just the way life is.  I'm sure there are perfectly wonderful people who are atheists, and who believe, as I do, that that's nobody's business but their own.

I agree, Bonestructure. But it makes me wonder how come I've seen you say "all" atheists do certain things or act in certain ways. Was that just a temporary lapse?

No, Ivan, no lapse. Reading his original answer and getting him to " cop " to it is definitely two different things and one thinks he would take back that answer if he could.

 

The other " comments " are just machine generated nonsense from some person in need of commitment.

I don't think I've ever said 'all' of anything. And no, I'm not computer generated lol. Just a disabled, 61 year old beat up guy. However, it's quite likely that I do generalize in my answers. I'm a professional writer and artist. I have to pay so much attention to proper writing and rules when I write, that I really don't pay that much attention when I'm doing email or posts like this. I really do think there are likely to be any number of decent folks who are atheists. Probably the majority. But we only seem to see and hear the ones that feel they just HAVE to tell others how to believe. That's the part I honestly don't understand, that anger and hatred. How have those of us who believe offended you or affected your life in any way? I know, yes, there are asshol;es in every religion, as I said, and it's true. But I mean just us ordinary quite, peaceful believers. We don't feel any need to tell you not to believe, why do you insist on telling us not to.

Bones, honey I don't think posting more comments helps at all I think you should ignore them and move on that's what I do when people accuse me of being NJOY's AKA. They like it when you post back at them. Little bastards

 
John McCann Thinks this answer is Not Helpful:

As usual, a confused answer from bonestructure.

 

I am not telling you not to believe anything, I am telling you that you are delusional to believe the nonsense you do and to keep it out of government, science, schools and the public square.

 

PS: Did not accuse you of being computer generated and you should be able to see who is computer generated here. Anonymous Commenter is one of the avatars.

Dear Bonestructure;

All they are doing is trying to find some way to goad you. I have better things to worry about. Besides, your answers are OK, as far as I am concerned. Do not agree with everything, but that is how we learn, except for those who are afraid to.

Have a good day.

Shalom;

Yechiel

Hi Bonestructure, I've seen you say "all" atheists so let's just say it was a lapse. I agree with some of the stuff I've seen you say but not all of it. Mainly I just don't like anybody that goes with the "all" of whatever the kind of people they're talking about explanation.

I don't think "all" atheists or Christians should be labeled anything. I think people should take each other as they come and not worry about everybody else's beliefs unless that's what the conversation is about. I don't know any of my atheist or believer friends that act like these people keep talking about!
