Atheists are extremely unlikely converts. Stop telling atheists to turn to Jesus. That's like inviting vegetarians to a pig roast.

We don't believe in lies and fantasies. Accept that and keep brainwashing your children. Those outside your cult are unlikely to join.

In order to be "more like you" I would have to give up my life as a genuinely good person and become a hate obsessed stinker who bullies people. I'd have to accept fantasy and lies and reject reason and common sense. No thanks!

@guyNbluejeans Why does God have such a beef with humans? How 'bout being honest for a change?

There is no such thing as an "atheist",IF you define atheist as someone who KNOWS for SURE there IS NO GOD.There are agnostics. People who call themselves atheists using have read a little of the Bible and are not able to Correctly discern it NOT becasue they're not smart, but because of 1Cor 2:14.They of course won't believe this either and so on.

This is man's attempt to make his own rules."They love their sins, so they choose not to believe, in an attempt to remove their guilty consciences."

@zcg3 Me, too, man. She's very attractive, but she's got so much to offer, too.

Wow, American Atheists really fucked up when they fired this lovely and articulate lady a few years ago.

@MrDerby2u Okay, well, don't expect anyone to take you seriously when you just act like a douche in general and shit on other people because they don't believe in your god. Grow up.

[MrDerby2u]

@PiesCanFly you find it strange that i give you an attitude? because a shitty attitude from you will beget another shitty attitude, that's why.

[PiesCanFly]

@MrDerby2u People run organizations to improve the quality of life in society. I don't get why you think that has anything to do with whether or not there's an afterlife, because those two things are not connected in any way -- a complete non sequitur. It's just so simple, and yet here you are asserting that atheists have no reason to run their organization. I find it strange that you call me a "pompous asswipe" when it's you who's making the bigoted, ignorant, nonsense comments.

@PiesCanFly

1. how is that even close to obvious? not many people understand atheism, that's why we ask questions, so they get answers. your asinine attitude doesn't help anything but further the stereotype that atheists are pompous asswipes.

2. how does having this 'No God Allowed' club help? (the actual question)

i ask a question without throwing slanders, belittling, or insulting intelligence, but, i knew in my heart of hearts that you wouldn't be able to hold back from being an ass.

[PiesCanFly]

@MrDerby2u To improve the condition of life on Earth...? I think that's obvious. I can't believe you even think you're asking a legitimate question.
