Want to know why I am Atheist? It's because of how the story of Jesus came to be. His story was not written down for at least 40 years; think of all the misconceptions that could have happened between that time. I mean, it is much like gossip. It works for the first few people, but then the story starts to mutate uncontrollably.

Who isn't to say that at first, Jesus was just a psychotic whom talked to his imaginary master, named god? He could have just been walking down the road talking to "god" about the basis of his life, and what he shall not do. Later, he commits euthanasia because god told him to. See how that could mutate into the modern story that it is?

Desert eagle| You get aids if you intercourse homosexually. See, WE try to help.


You can contract STDs by certain fluid transfers from one infected person to another noninfected person. It being homosexual or not makes no difference.

Not to mention calling atheists lazy people is humorously true.


Yes spending all that time actually researching, questioning, and evaluating topics instead of just forming one idea and staying with it no matter what. How lazy!

Why do you run, DE? Are you scared? Did you predict I would nullify your point and rush to heap enpty fortification?


Please grow up already. The childish insults don't help your case any.

Killing is a funny thing.


It isn't funny at all. (hahahaha) Okay, yes it is.

HIV is transferred through blood, semen, vaginal fluids and I believe one other bodily fluid, but I can't remember if it's urine, breast milk, or neither of those.

Do not be close-minded. Homosexuals are not hated, excommunicated, or even shunned. We are simply encouraged to dissuade them from their error.


Saying someone made an error because they think differently from you is extremely close-minded.

I laugh at your failure

DE? that's a new one. Anywho, dude! Even your fellow theists are telling you that your an ***hole. Trolling won't win anyone's respect at all. You do you think you won this debate? You didn't try to refute my claim that children are brainwashed into hating people. To top it off, do you have proof that I can AIDS from men only and not women?

I'm pretty sure that it is impossible to get a STD from sex.

But in all seriousness...
AIDS is not spread evenly throughout all demographics. There are cultural and social reasons for this. For instance, if a society doesn't practice safe sex, it will probably have more STDS than one that does. There are many countries today that fit this discription, most notably poor African countries such as Swaziland (About a quarter of Swazi adults have AIDS). In the west, Homosexuals also tend to have higher AIDS rates than heterosexuals. I can't find a credible source to confirm this, however, so it is possible that that is purely a stereotype.
And then, to make matters worse, people tend to capitalize on this tragedy to prove a point. They say that that these socities have aids because they aren't the right religion, or because they live an immoral lifestyle, or whatever. People don't get AIDS because they are different. People get AIDS because they had sex with someone else who had AIDS.

God can neither be proved to exist, or be proved to not exist. Therefore, he is out of discussion.


As it relates to the first page, isn't it self-defeating to say you're an Atheist yet be unable to prove there's a god?

Impossible...but if there is no proof he was here, then why assume he was here?

Then again, that was a relatively short amount of time for a piece of history to be written down for the time. Remember Homer? The proof for the Iliad is enough for people to believe that an event like it may have happened (Trojan war). That took many more years to be written down than the New Testament did and the main story was still relatively historical. Yes, I know you think there is absolutely no proof for the New Testament, but to say that is to be ignorant. Anyhow, the point is, if a story like the Iliad was written so long after it happened and still retained a decent amount of accuracy, how much more accurate would the New Testament be?

I believe that if there is such a god.. why all these natural disasters, why war, why STD's? Just because he supposedly gave free will, doesn't mean he shouldn't watch over his supposedly called ''creation''.

Therefore it doesn't make sense as to how god is perfect, if his world is a complete mess? People will probably say.. ''Oh but it's the humans fault..'' Yeah but who created the humans.. ''Supposedly.''

I'm also atheist and I agree with some of what Owen Said, He makes a good point as to why we should even believe.

Then again, people still believe and the fact is that you can't prove anything.. no one can. So If we have respect for one another we're all good.

because people like you are the world. if everyone believed in God and worshipped, we'd far less problems.

what you are and what you create are totally different.

There are way more religious people then Atheists.. How does not believing in god chnage anything? For example.. Your not gonna let your project or Homework get destroyed by your own failure just because people don't believe in you that you can finish it or something. Wouldn't ''God'' fix his problems?

what you are and what you create are totally different.


It doesn't matter when it comes to your creation.. It's your creation, you take responsibility for it.

the proof you want you wont see as proof.


What proof? There is no proof. If so.. please Amuse me.

you just proved his point. He says you won't see his proof as proof and I, being Christian, know that his proof has been repeated over and over to many atheists, including those on this forum. You have probably come into contact with this proof and didn't see it as proof, resulting in your believing there is no proof now. There is no point in telling you if you won't receive it when it is given, so why bother?
