I Am An Atheist

I was brought up a christian and indoctrinated with christianity at school but I can't say I ever believed any of that rubbish. None of it makes any sense. I don't care if people want to believe that stuff, the only problem I have is with those pushy aggressive nutters who try to force their beliefs onto me.

Just like when godbots come on here and spew their religious crap by quoting the buybull annoys me...as an Atheist, I'm annoyed at you for doing the exact same thing here. Why do you feel you have to broadcast it? How is this any different than the people you speak of? Could this not be labeled as "shoving it down people's throats?"...the very thing we hate when religious people do it? Are you 19 Rob?

@Fernie just my opinion but a big difference is just stating how you feel or giving your opinion is one thing but to keep going after someone doesn't want to talk about something is another. Same as what part of NO don't you understand type of thing . I think we all should be able to state our opinions but let it stop there unless someone else wants to continue.

@Repete I don't see it that way at all

@Fernie then you see it as only your opinion matters

@Repete do you have any idea how silly you are right now? Where did I even suggest that? My point is that posting this and calling believers " pushy aggressive nutters who try to force their beliefs onto me." is just as obnoxious as the believers who post buybull passages here. Gives Atheists a bad name and fodder for god people

You need to look in the mirror to see who is silly . I said everyone should be able to state their opinion and then let it drop at that . And you said I don't see it that way at all .

@Repete You completely miss my point...deliberately. Just go away

@Fernie Not all christians are "pushy aggressive nutters". I think @rob19 was specifically referring to the subset of christians who are.

@suzie1960 where do you see that I said ALL? I am talking specifically about believers who come in here and proselytize...I don't like it when Atheists behave that way and this poster has
suzie1960 · 61-69, F
@Fernie Your words "...calling believers..." implied all religious believers, not just the subset of christians who met the stated criteria.

I apologize if my inference were incorrect.

@suzie1960 read it the way you like...actually, truth is, I think anyone...yes, anyone who believes in an invisible sky fairy has deliberately suspended rational thinking because they haven't got the ovaries to live without the fairy tale

You're right. I don't care what people believe or don't believe if in. If they want to believe in a sky pixie or follow the son of a Jewish carpenter that's fine by me. The ones who annoy me are those who try to dictate how I live my life or prevent me going about my business and foisting their literature on me.

@Fernie I'm going to have a heart attack. I actually agree with Fernie
@HoraceGreenley
Take a deep breath guy. You will make through this!

@Aliveshock Not likely
@HoraceGreenley
I think it captures your very essence. 😉
Admit that you are attracted to socialism!
