What theists really mean when they say...
"See the light" = Start living in a dream world
"Moving away from God" = Start living in the real world
"You are arrogant" = Please stop sticking to facts, it's annoying
"I hope God can forgive you" = I wish I could shoot you
"Good Christian" = Someone who does good deeds just to please God
"Atheist" = Someone who does good deeds just because they can
"Believers" = A club for people who like pretending they'll never die
"Church" = Where the club meets to play the pretending game
"The word of God" = I need a rule book and this is it
"God's will" = Every single thing that could ever possibly happen
"Against God's will" = You're not sticking to our book, are you?
"Jesus loves you" = I think you're a twat
"The end is nigh" = Listen, if you won't play the pretending game I'm going to wish you dead and then you'll get scared and start playing
"Priest" = Someone who is an expert at pretending and has memorised lots of useless information to help delude others
"Other religions" = They're just pretending the wrong pretend stuff is true but it isn't, only ours is the real pretend stuff
"Scientists" = Those annoying people who keep making us look silly
"Evolution" = Theory that makes much more sense than mine, just poke your tongue out and hope it goes away
"Truth" = Delusions we in the club have all agreed on

Atheist: A person who believes in one less god than you do. |

Why do people trust in god? Because it's easier to follow a leader, even an imaginary one, than to be responsible for yourself. |

Religious sounds dandy, but so do unicorns. |

I question anyone who takes the word of a priest, pastor, rabbi, or imam in matters regarding science over that of a highly educated actual scientist. |

I thank fictional gods for nothing. This world has enough resources to feed and house everyone, but instead self-serving despots, billionaires, and religious factions fighting over who has the best imaginary friend have ruined it all. |

How clerics try and blame their victims for being raped. The child instigated it. The rapes were historic. I didn't rape the child it was consensual sex. The last but not least "THE DEVIL MADE ME DO IT". |

The mere fact there is a field referred to as apologetics should be a far bigger problem for theists than it is. What kind of God needs mortals to make a case for its existence? Apologetics is, in itself, a compelling case for atheism.

There is no reasoning with those who have become completely brainwashed by religion and are taught that reality itself should be ignored and subsequently replaced with a barbaric, bigoted fantasy world. |

I think a lot of preachers in the age of COVID-19 are living in fear their congregants will realize the preachers need them a whole lot more than they need the preachers.

If everyone actually thought about their religion, there would be a lot more atheists. |

I support teaching Christian creationism in public schools as much as teaching that Zeus, RA, or Thor are factual. It's total BS and yet another way to try and get innocent children indoctrinated early in fear that they might actually think for themselves and either choose another religion, agnosticism, or atheism. |

Beware the man of one book.

If all the Bibles and Korans in the world could be recycled into something more useful, like toilet paper or something, maybe this species would have a slightly better chance of long-term survival. |

In the history of humankind, imaginary invisible gods have never solved a single problem. However, imbeciles that believe in them have created seemingly endless problems. |

The Bible offers nothing that resembles democracy. Quite the contrary, obeying, serving, and rules for owning slaves are clearly stated instead. |

When proponents of a so-called “holy book” claim that it is the ultimate source of love and wisdom, why do they spend a significant amount of their time attacking diversity and science?

The Christian god was genuinely “mad” at the human race for not behaving, flooded the planet, and in turn murdered most life on Earth. “Mad” implies surprise. How is it possible that an omnipresent being (existing in the past, present, and future) is ever surprised about anything? Yet this is a reoccurring theme that occurs throughout their holy fairytale book.

‘God-given rights’ depend on those who claim to know God’s will, and depend solely on this particular individual’s interpretation of his god’s word.
Be wary of such religious leaders! -Impiety

"Numbers 11: Have you ever been on a long road trip with your family and wanted to destroy everyone around you? Well, God actually goes through with it... and makes it rain quail." -Hemant Mehta |

The "have faith" answer skirts accountability and providing evidence of any kind to back up claims. Since this is the very cornerstone of every major religion, it's no wonder that corruption runs rampant among the Christians, Jews, Muslims, and Hindus with little (if any) interference or legal consequences. |

The same religious whack-jobs that consistently whined, “You’re taking away my personal freedom” (because they had to wear a facemask during a global pandemic) have no problem forcing a pregnant teenage rape victim to give birth. |

Christian hate-preacher Steven Anderson delivered a disturbing summary of Christian Nationalism.
"We don't want our country to be run by Muslims and Hindus and atheists." They can only "co-exist" with the Christians in charge.
All office holders, he adds, must accept Jesus.

The ultra-religious, right-wing judges on the United States Supreme Court are about to destroy over 50 years of progress for women by voting for a handmaid's tale for them all. |

We are not the special creation of any god. We are not a planned outcome. We are what happened, and we celebrate ourselves at our peril. |

The Bible is a book of inequality and brutal violence. It promotes misogyny, xenophobia, homophobia, racism, rape, and slavery as well as many other vile acts. |

"Science adjusts its views based on what's observed. Faith is the denial of observation so that belief can be preserved."

The biggest deterrent in the progressive development of human beings is religion. I have no doubt that we would already have a cure for cancer and have a settlement on Mars had science prevailed over antiquated beliefs. |

Benjamin Franklin |
To follow by faith alone is to follow blindly |

The Bible: a book that can be used to turn you into a doormat or a killer... depending which passages you choose to take any notice of. |

Ernst Cassirer (admin) |
We think of religion as the symbolic expression of our highest moral ideals; we think of magic as a crude aggregate of superstitions. Religious belief seems to become mere superstitious credulity if we admit any relationship with magic. - Ernst Casirer

Idel Dreimer |
“Freedom of religion” is an entirely defensible concept. You can’t stop people from believing in unicorns, centaurs, God, or the tooth fairy. On the other hand, the desire of government employees to wear religious symbols on the job should carry no greater weight than their desire to proclaim other private enthusiasms – for a political party, a sports team, or a brand of soap.
Indeed, given the fact that every religion claims a unique moral superiority – leading to the historically deadly intensity of religious disputes -- no secular government should appear to favour private superstition over public reason, or to betray the simple prudence of common sense. (Observation #2072) |

Idel Dreimer |
There is a unanimity among religions: "God" made us too stupid to observe, reflect, and reach our own conclusions. In despair, we must subsume our intellects in "faith" and do what we are told. "Cui bono?" suggests the truth: religions have been the foundation stones of tribal loyalty-- the cautionary obelisks ensuring mindless groupthink and obsequious obedience -- not to God -- but to the temporal Caesars, the wielders of practical power. (Observation #2073)

Religions detest Atheists because Atheists tell the truth. Religious miracles (lies) have been debunked that many times that theists should live in a permanent state of embarrassment. |

Odd how the Christians' "goat herder's guide to the galaxy" with an almighty, all-knowing god at the helm has no clue about any branch of science (e.g., physical, chemical, biological, geological, astrological, etc.). |

The very corrupt right wing of the United States government (under the previous president) forgave loans of 4.4 million to pastor/grifter Joel Osteen and a whopping 3.5 billion dollars for the Catholic Church. This was all done to buy religious extremists votes and enact harsh laws based on Christianity. |
