The Delusion of Atheism [Spirituality & Religion]

[youtube=https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HaQpENJLx-I]

The main delusion of atheism is that its followers believe that it exists.

They are deluded into believing that no gods exist, yet they have their own gods that they worship and put their faith in.

They can't understand that there is only one true God, Yahweh, who has revealed Himself to mankind through His Spirit and through His Word, yet they try their darnedest to discredit Him and His Word instead of taking time to understand Him and His Word.

They keep claiming they have evidence for their type of science that evolution happened instead of God, Yahweh, creating the heavens and the earth but fail to produce evidence so far. They, however, have shown evidence that intelligent design happened instead but still claim it's evolution.

They mock, ridicule, and insult hoping that these actions will set them above those who believe, on the contrary, the opposite happens and their mocking, ridiculing, and insults fall back on them. Plus, these actions prove that they have no such evidence to support their claims in that evolution happened or that God, Yahweh, doesn't live.

As an Atheist I I choose not to follow any higher power or to believe in what other Athiest do. Beliefs all of my own. And the first thing I believe in is myself.

So for you Christians try to believe in yourself, Because "your" god is busy helping someone better than you right now.

@Outsider98 Yawn was that a smelly breeze that just blew by me or did you try to say to express your brain fart again?

So, you claim to be your own idol and you have faith. In that case, you're no atheist being that you worship yourself. This is what I am getting from you.

Outsider98 · 36-40, M

@GodSpeed63 for one you say I am my own idol and I worship myself. Not my words. I have the freedom to believe in whatever I want. Not what I am taught. It's called an open mind. That is the beauty I see in atheism.

Then why did you say you believed in yourself?

[quote] have the freedom to believe in whatever I want.[/quote]

This is true, we all have the freedom to believe what we want but, we're also responsible for believing in the Truth rather than a lie. Freedom and responsibility go hand in hand, you can't have one without the other lest your life turns into chaos.

@GodSpeed63 It's possible to believe in yourself without worshipping yourself. How is that something you don't know?

You have no understanding of worship.

LordShadowfire · M

@GodSpeed63 Sure, I do.

GodSpeed63 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire [quote]Sure, I do.[/quote]

Your posts say otherwise.

LordShadowfire · M

@GodSpeed63 Yours indicate that you literally think people worship the things they do on a regular basis.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire And you can show otherwise? Too Funny. You have no idea what worship means do you?

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 I know that people like you project your behavior of worship by saying that if someone is enthusiastic about something, they are worshiping it. That's intellectually dishonest.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire So you just admitted that you have no clue what worship actually is. Too Funny!!!! Here is a hint. It has nothing to do with enthusiasm or lack there of.

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 Okay, Humpty Dumpty. Argue with the dictionary.
[quote]wor·ship
/ˈwərSHəp/
noun
the feeling or expression of reverence and adoration for a deity.
"the worship of God"[/quote]

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire Now try to understand what a god is.

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 A being considered superior to humans.

Try not to be a condescending ass. You're not smart enough.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire Care to try again? Merriam Webster says a god is a person or thing of supreme value. This may well include things like money or power or possessions or guiding principles or anything you allow to guide your life. Of course letting it guide your life is the act of worship.

@hippyjoe1955 [quote]God

1.
(in Christianity and other monotheistic religions) the creator and ruler of the universe and source of all moral authority; the supreme being.

"a moon god"[/quote]
Literally the first Google result.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire You always stick the first thing that shows up on google? Is google you god of information? Are you worshipping it?

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 At least I take the first dictionary definition I find, rather than cherry-pick a definition I can twist to support my claim.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire I gave you a dictionary definition already. You didn't check it. You made google your god and you are worshipping it. Too Funny!!!

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 No, you gave me the dictionary definition which most closely resembles your argument. I gave you the first definition I could find. Now you're lying because you can't admit you went hunting for that specific definition.

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire So the dictionary definition that most closely fits your argument should be discarded for the same reason? Sauce for the goose is still sauce for the gander.

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 I literally just grabbed the first definition. Are Mr. Merriam and Mr. Webster your gods?

hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M

@LordShadowfire And I grabbed a different definition. Neither definition is wrong. Neither can be dismissed because they don't suit your particular argument.

LordShadowfire · M

@hippyjoe1955 Except that you use your definition to falsely accuse those who have no gods of having gods.
