Is there anything today that is accomplished by religion/faith that could not be accomplished without it?

You cannot preach hate of something that is an immutable state of being and declare that you still love the person. Our sexuality is one of our most defining characteristics, and is not a choice. So comparing it to religion is a false equivocation. You raise a kid up who is gay and spend years...

Dudes making out is gross and I don't understand it. God hates fags.

ok a church or your house. Whatever. Keep it in your pants amigo and stop terrifying children with it. Straight up child abuse.

Useless and mostly just insane? Sounds about right.

Why I want to punch anyone who says "hate the sin not the sinner" in the face. As though you can separate your sexuality from your being and still live a happy life.

Well I'm a straight white male so Christians are mostly ok with me. Gay female minorities have more troubles. And I disagree with the second part. Atheists want to maintain a separation of church and state - therefore some of them speak up when possible discriminatory practices arise, like...

There's no need to disprove something that noone can present a shred of evidence for. If god exists in the way that you (personally) imagine he does (at least from what you've presented here) then honestly he's kind of an asshole. Just sitting up there, existing, watching people suffer...

Of course the trouble is that most Christians don't see it that way and the church definitely doesn't see itself that way for the most part. If Christians just treated their faith like bikram yoga or some shit, kept it to themselves and didn't go around demanding that people who disagreed with...

There must have been some sort of divine intervention if you typed all that shit on a phone.

Thanks Buzz

I also recommend reading the bible without any apologist literature or influence from anyone. I like to call that "The Fast Track to Atheism".

Homophobia is a weird word. I mean if it's a disease, why aren't we treating these people for their homophobia? And if it's not a disease, why the name? Why don't we just call these people assholes? -someone

Now they appear on toast.

I really can't believe you can't understand concepts like Burden of Proof, and Proving a Negative. Prove fairies don't exist. Prove Unicorns don't exist. Prove that purple-flavored plantains don't exist. There are an infinite number of things that we could all sit around wasting time "proving...

:facepalm

Yeah after watching how Ireland acts in Miami I'm glad we're rid of him.

I'd take that season.

And of course that is your personal view of the bible. There are alot of Christians who hold it in much higher esteem. You have to forgive us atheists we never know what personal brand of Christianity each Christian has subscribed to in order to appease themselves.

Unfortunately there's not a single prophecy in the bible that has ever come true.
