Atheism is a religion in the same way that not collecting stamps is a hobby |

To say that the earth is only 6,000 years old is the mathematical equivalent of saying its radius is only 28 feet. |

It's best to fully embrace what you have left of your life than to think of the afterlife. As a non-believer, I don't really care where I'll go after I die. |

You believe the world's 12 thousand years old? "That's right." Okay I got one word to ask you, a one word question, ready? "Uh huh." Dinosaurs. You know the world's 12 thousand years old and dinosaurs existed, they existed in that time, you'd think it would have been mentioned in the fucking Bible at some point. "And lo Jesus and the disciples walked to Nazareth. But the trail was blocked by a giant brontosaurus...with a splinter in his paw. And O the disciples did run a shriekin': 'What a big fucking lizard, Lord!' But Jesus was unafraid and he took the splinter from the brontosaurus's paw and the big lizard became his friend. |

The scariest fact of it all is that even if we do find ROCK SOLID PROOF there is no god, theists will say: "Well god made it so, he wants to test us." Gotta hand it to him/them, whoever wrote the bible, has rather by accident or on purpose put a lot of stupid shit in it to confuse the average and stupid people! |

Clearly the Christians have used ... myths ... in fabricating the story of Jesus' birth'…It is clear to me that the writings of the Christians are a lie and that your fables are not well-enough constructed to conceal this monstrous fiction. |

If there really is a God who created the entire universe with all of its glories, and He decides to deliver a message to humanity, He will not use, as His messenger, a person on cable TV with a bad hairstyle. |

| St. Peter |
"God made some men gay, because He made them in His image. Therefore God is gay." |

Why is christianity so widespread? Divine influence? No... it's simply because it happened to coincide with the rise of global imperialism and not long after by the printing press. Just our bad luck, eh? |

Baron von Knifty |
When someone tells you that Stalin, Mao and Pol Pot killed millions because they were Atheists, answer that they were not responsible for the horrendous atrocities; god was! Those three were simply acting out god’s great plan. That should shut them up.

If God gets the praise for saving you, then he should get the blame for not saving all the others. |

The bible clearly states that when ascending to heaven you forget all your Earthly memories... so I say even if The chrisian religion is real... I would rather go to hell and remember my friends and families... then go to heaven and forget.

The bible was written by men (as in males, mortal males who liked to think because they have something swinging between their legs they were super cool). Now, I'm a guy, dont get me wrong, but its so bloody obvious that the bible is just a method of control. Not only of women, but of other men. AND, you can tell it was written by 2000 year old guys because, if it was written by God, the bible wouldnt miss out on things like other planets, stars, hell, dinosaurs even. The lack of accuracy in the bible is attributed to the ignorance of the men who wrote it, and the fact that in their hurry to write a good control scheme, they didnt care to make the backstory plausible |

Look at a picture of the Elephant Man and then tell me you still believe in the beauty of Intelligent Design.

Richard Dawkins |
We are so staggeringly lucky to find ourselves in the spotlight. However brief our time in the sun, if we waste a second of it, or complain that it is dull and barren or (like a child) boring, couldn't this be seen as a callous insult to those unborn trillions who will never be offered life in the first place? [...] the knowledge that we have only one life should make it all the more precious.
The atheist view is correspondingly life-affirming and life-enhancing, while at the same time never been tainted with self-delusion, wishful thinking, or whinging self pity of those who feel life owes them something. |

"They [atheists] are not doing things to be rewarded in heaven; they're doing things because they're right, because they live by a moral code." |

When the pope died, he arrived at heavens gate and pleased Petrus for entrance. Petrus looked up in his book, but couldn't find any entry with the name pope. So Petrus went to ask God, if he knows this guy, claiming to be the representant of God on earth. No bell rings in Gods mind and as Jesus walks by they ask him, if he knows the pope and if it's ok to let him in. Jesus has no idea as well and offers to check out that person. He comes back with a big grin on his face and says "You remember when I was down on earth 2000 years ago and founded this club of fishermans, you wont belive it, this club still exists". |

We know that EVERY word in the bible is true, because the bible tells us so. |

| Lisa Randall |
I think there's a virtue in being good in and of itself. I think that one can work with the world we have. So I probably don't believe in God. I think it's a problem that people are considered immoral if they're not religious. That's just not true. This might earn me some enemies, but in some ways they may be even more moral. If you do something for a religious reason, you do it because you'll be rewarded in an afterlife or in this world. That's not quite as good as something you do for purely generous reasons. |

He who says "The United States is a Christian nation founded upon Christian principles and beliefs" is woefully ignorant of history. The United States was founded by Deists, and the puritan settlers were but one immigrant group among many. |

A, How can you say christians are more trustworthy than Atheists are?
C, Christians have a code of ethics they must follow.
A, Really, who enforces this 'code'?
C, god holds us accountable.
A, When?
C, When we are judged... judgment day.
A, So... god doesn't reach down and put a hand over your mouth so you can't lie? For example.
C, No, we have free will.
A, I see, so no real world consequence?
C, What?
A, Simple... your god does nothing to assure you keep his code here on earth and yet through the magic of 'forgiveness' no consequence in heaven... thus being religious gives you less morality than an Atheist, by nature of you own code of reward and punishment. How convenient.

The very concept of a god is so abstract and meaningless that the word should be deleted from the dictionary as having no relevance to anything or anybody... |

In the USA, we are supposed to have Freedom of/from Religion. But, Christians believe it is freedom for only THEIR religion, not anyone else. I see dumb people. |

So, you're a Christian, eh? Well, maybe common sense is not your cup of tea. |

Actually the way I saw that quote was: "Science flies man to the Moon, Religion flies men into buildings." |

Religion and God are like spoiled little girls, she will freely accept any praise, however, if questioned or doubted; she'll throw a tantrum and try and scare you into believing anything she says she is. |

Now, this is really pissing me off, Atheism CANNOT be a religion, because religion is Theism, and Atheism is the exact opposite of Theism, so how can Atheism be a religion when Atheism means the exact OPPOSITE of religion?!? |

If jesus was alive do you think he would want a 3 million dollar church. Or do you think he would feed the hungry. If you are going to follow his teachings pay attention. |

George Bernard Shaw
The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one.

How would a religious person convince an atheist to believe without breaking a commandment? They can't - lying is believed to be one. |
