Sure, it's always "fallen" America and the President or leader of the day is always the Antichrist. Plus, Jesus will return soon and kill all unbelievers eventually in Armageddon.
It was the same way when I was in a fundamentalist church, except the "evil one" du jour was Ronald Reagan, and the Roman Catholic Church was Mystery Babylon the Great.
I have heard it all before. The reason I left the church was because I realized that it was nothing but insane and paranoid ramblings.
No, in the end, most atheist don't "join" anything. They think for themselves. Also they don't allow witch doctors, mystics, preachers, popes and shaman tell them what truth is.
They also teach their children to *think* and not be fooled by superstition.
When your religion makes claims about the physical nature of the universe that are false, your religion is wrong. When your religion claims the error is the infallible work of a god who is always correct, your god does not exist.
@fightforfair ...wrong on all 3 counts. As an athiest, I believe in no fictitious god character, thus, no religion. I have friends...and I am married. Soooo...there ya have it.
this is so stupid, science isn't everything, people! don't worship it like god or anything because 20 years from now, how we look at science and evolution may be completely different! science is never reliable because we're always finding out new things and later realizing "hey, what we thought last century was completely wrong!"
Did you hear about the scientist who fed his kid aspirin so many times that he died?
Did you hear that scientists have discovered use for almost every single "vestigial" organ in the body?
"Able to admit it's wrong" means nothing if it will only admit it once it's found something wrong with it. Which by the way is always. There is always something wrong with science, that's why it's never reliable.
Strawmen, all of them. If science is 'always' wrong, it would never make any progress. How in the hell are you going to admit somethings wrong until you know its wrong? Science is what has given everyone who lives in a first-world nation every facet of their lives as they know it. Both you and I owe our lives to the sacrifices of the teachers and scientists of the past. The difference is, I recognize this. You shove your head in the sand and say 'god did it.' Thumbs down me all all you like!
Actually, because science is always wrong it always has the opportunity to become better. If there exists a reasonable argument against what you believe, then you have every right to admit that what you think is wrong. Also, if you look at it from both sides, we've been developing problems in addition to solutions. Science helped us to pollute the atmosphere, for example.
PS: Since where did the thumbs come from? And to your convenience, I will turn my other cheek to you also.
Both 'sides?' There is an anti-progress 'side?' Science is not 'always wrong' you fool, it chooses to be always incomplete. And yes, you have the right to claim something is wrong. But if it goes against all the evidence and is completed founded on things like 'faith' then I would ask you to respect people's rights to ridicule you for it. Science did not help pollute the atmosphere, people did. Not to mention there is always sacrifice for progress. I never thumbed you btw, other people did.

Rolling on the floor... So by attempting to excuse science's faults as "incomplete" you think it's always everything? Also if science is incomplete, how can it compose "all the evidence?" And I guess when it's time for science to take the glory you credit it with all sorts of fabulous wonders, yet you credit the stupidity of humanity for the consequences?
The thumbs right now aren't what matters. "You fool" is too stale. It's time you've said something that doesn't contradict anything.
Wow. You spent a week coming up with THAT? Science is merely a process to gain knowledge. Knowledge itself is never bad, (Despite what your religion tells you) and therefore, it is how the knowledge is used by people which determines whether something becomes good or bad. "All the evidence" does not refer to "Knowing everything" but rather "all that is known." Yes, unless science begins to claim absolutes (like your religion) it will never be 'bad' or 'good' but progressive. Good is subjective.
1) You obviously have a lot of time on your hands. You know, people around you sometimes have busy lives.
2) Knowledge is power, yes, but don't ever forget: everything comes at a price.
3) Science is progressive. I agree. My point is, it's never 100% correct at any given moment, and can never be used to prove "my religion" because God calls for something beyond what human capabilities call for.
Obviously... God > Human + Science because God made human + science.
"Obviously... God > Human + Science because God made human + science. "
You have to prove that before you state it as fact. Also, even is your god did exist, it would be God creates humans who create science, not god creates both. I will never create my grandchildren. And with the exception of creation from nothing, what can't we do so far that is supposed to be a miracle in your holy text? Besides creation, he really has nothing on us.
Humans create ideas through our own imagination and creativity. Therefore, as science is an idea, a construct of the mind and a process, it is within human capability to create it and any account of history shows we did.
As for your miracles:
1. We CAN chemically alter wate to make it wine. Quite easily.
2. We have resuscitated people who were dead well over a day.
3. Last I checked, your god is fond of natural disasters and worldwide floods.
So says the person who can't even speak proper English and has nothing but shallow insults to throw. So says the person who believes his own cousins are bloody apes. If this isn't painfully ironic to you, go play your little games and leave the life questions for the "grown-ups."
"if you can lie to the kids abut where they came from, you can lie to them about anything." Intelligent Design is the workings of the Beast, advocated by stupid people who are easily manipulated. It has NO bearing on modern life, and is dangerous.

Atheism is not believing in God. If i'm not believing in anything how can it be a religion?
I also don't understand why atheists cannot have love and friendship, i assume you think that all atheists are puppy drowning, baby eaters.

OKAY OKAY let me reword that (sorry, almost forgot you were atheist):
"God > Human + Science BECAUSE God is supposed to be > than Human + Science, otherwise He is no God"
Humans never created science! It was there in the first place, they discovered it! We never create anything, we either discover it or improve on it.
Just to name a few:
1) Water into Wine
2) Dead into Alive
3) Save the Earth
4) Parting the Red Sea
