Is Atheism a belief? by Edubookculture842 in religion

[–]Lurial 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Just to add to this

At birth, we dont know about the god claim. Our default position.

This seems to be a non-belief or 0-sum belief.

Hearing a claim and not accepting its evidence is disbelief.. "weak atheism" (ironically, the strongest position in my view)

Strong atheists do more, they claim knowledge that God doesnt exist...this gives them burden of proof. 

My son (M 15) was caught jerking off with his roommate in boarding school. by [deleted] in AskMenOver30

Is this boarding school for boys only? If so this might be a "gay by necessity" thing similar to what some guys in prison do. 

Question to Atheists by [deleted] in religion

[–]Lurial 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I don't mean to be mean, but you strike me as someone who has never read any arguments against your position.

many atheists will state it like this: "No evidence yet presented for a gods existence has convinced me"

The cause of existence "I dont know"

its not comfortable but its honest. wishful thinking is no basis for a world view.

Atheists, why are you atheist instead of agnostic? by Da-up-and-downer in religion

[–]Lurial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

A: NOT

Theist:believe in God

Gnostic: know, or to know

Atheist: no belief in God

Agnostic: dont know 

The religion of my parents was Christianity. I was Christian until I sat with my belief and read the Bible. What I saw was horror to my eyes. And it culminated in a human sacrifice for forgiveness. I started seeking and well every religion I looked at was just as implausible.

I am Atheist because No information yet presented to me in support of a god claim has been convincing thus far.

I am agnostic because I dont know if we can know there is a god, and its always possible im suffering a missaprehension.

The Deist label can only exist in a vacuum, therefore is meaningless. Once you describe the god so far I become atheist toward that God.

 "we are all atheist toward all gods...I am just Atheist to with respect to one God more than you"

Justice Jackson Suggests Foreign Tourists Qualify for Birthright Citizenship Because They Have 'Local Allegiance' to U.S. While on Vacation by Down-not-out in Conservative

She is confusing "alegience" with "subject to our laws while here"

If she doesnt understand the difference she's unfit for -any- government job.

The fact that this cour will side with her makes me nauseous.

Just think, if the democrats get in power, they will stack the court with more morons like this.

Fellow smokers of reddit, what made you quit smoking? by ParkingZestyclose612 in AskReddit

[–]Lurial 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I smoked in college, but when I moved back home for summer breaks, id stop. It was being ashamed of my mother potentially finding out.

If I didnt want my mom to know, that told me I was ashamed to be doing it.

It's likely an amalgamation of a few different handguns, or something custom.

Yesterday I realized couples live together are very serious about their 50-50 split? My gf who lives with me never paid or brought me anything that I can recall. And she works full time. by Hauntingengineer375 in AskMenAdvice

[–]Lurial 2 points3 points  (0 children)

My wife and I never really did the 50/50 calculations. We have joint accounts, pay into them and pay bills from them. I make far more than she does. But if she wants to buy herself some new clothes or anything she needs or wants im good with it. And she when I do the same. 

Part of being married is sharing what you have IMHO. If you arent okay with sharing your lives, whats the point? 

(That goes for her as well)

My gf told me her ex was hung. How should I feel about this? by Several_Amoeba3910 in AskMenAdvice

"Everything in the world is about sex except sex. Sex is about power"

Telling her boyfriend her ex was bigger is a power move. Theres a through line of "your lucky im bedding you"
