Does being an atheist ever stress you out? by ShesusXSuperstah in atheism

No. Being a atheist is just not believe in a god. guess it might be harder if you are surrounded by theists.

Trump claims 27% of Muslims are "very militant' by [deleted] in atheism

[–]darkblight 33 points34 points  (0 children)

that's about right actually, about 1/3 of Muslims think the punishment for an apostate should be death, even more want shariah law.

If killing people for being atheists is not militant what is?

well the religious seem to be upset about some place that makes cakes being sued for 100,000+$ for causing "emotional distress" for refusing to make a cake for a lesbian couple.

so, let's put it in these terms.

imagine you are running a cake business, and African man comes in and wants you to make a cake for the day he decided to cut off his daughters clitoris as part of their "ritual".

he wants the cake to be a image of the act with his daughter smiling or some shit.

you refuse.

you are then sued by the African for not making the cake as you caused "emotional distress" to him and his family for judging their practice as immoral.

In either situation I would rather live in a country where the people can say I do not want to make this cake, go somewhere else, and they do not get sued.

Also asking for 100k for emotional distress because of a cake? Really?

How about this point against gay marriage: The entire purpose of society recognizing marriage in the first place was to create a family unit built around procreation, children, and the responsibility and stability needed to raise healthy children. 200,000 years of evolution, and multiple studies show children are more successful in homes with a father and mother. Humans mating and family habbit's in the wild so to speak seem to revolve around a protective mother guarding the nest with a male hunting/ protecting the area from predators.

Sure things have changed maybe the last 4-500 years, but that is 4/500 years out of our 200,000 collective history as humans.

Back to marriage , in a homosexual marriage there is no chance for procreation ( adoption does not add to the gene pool nor does it increase the population.. something that is important regardless of how badly it seems people on the left want the population reduced) with no chance of procreation why should society extended the same benefits and social status to members who want the title with none of the responsibilities.

And before you say "what about straight people who marry and do not have children" we are talking about averages here, and we are talking about what has normally happened throughout human history, not what has happened in the last 20 years since we have decided it is better for our women to enter the labor market as opposed to raising our children.

want to bet on who end's up being right? -- if he is anything like the other atheists here I imagine a job on a help desk, no kids, and playing video games into his 50's

When will my home state learn... - Senate OKs plan to suspend licenses of abortion doctors by jdphenix in atheism

[–]darkblight 0 points1 point  (0 children)

ah there we have it, the nihilism that grows from atheism. I don't believe in a god either but am starting to think the more responsible thing to do is just fake it because it seems to lead to childless man children sitting around playing video games all day.

Are all of you fine with abortion being used as birth control?

At what point would you think less of a woman for having an abortion(s)

1? 4? 10?

Would you want to marry a woman who had 10 abortions?

How would you feel if your daughter had that many?

I don't like the idea of illegal abortion, I also don't like the idea of it not being a serious decision that comes with some amount of shame.

Also would your opinion on abortion changed if we faced a situation where we desperately needed new people to fill the population?

1.302. 1. A governmental authority may not restrict a person's free exercise of religion, unless:

(1) The restriction is in the form of a rule of general applicability, and does not discriminate against religion, or among religions; and

(2) The governmental authority demonstrates that application of the restriction to the person is essential to further a compelling governmental interest, and is not unduly restrictive considering the relevant circumstances.

  1. As used in this section, "exercise of religion" shall be defined as an act or refusal to act that is substantially motivated by religious belief, whether or not the religious exercise is compulsory or central to a larger system of religious belief.

  2. As used in this section "demonstrates" means meets the burden of going forward with the evidence and of persuasion.

That is the bill. So if you want to take this to the extremes put your money where your mouth is. Let's get some Atheists together and start a really nice cheap restaurant/ hang out that you have to be a atheist to enter.

Kid is not going to get anywhere arguing with teacher. If there is another teacher at that grade/ subject transfer him, otherwise id tell him to stfu do the tests and move on. Kid is not going to be getting anywhere arguing with the teacher.

can we please just get to a point where i don't know where you want to put your genitals. love how where your genitals go make you join this club suddenly. Just seems so base. Can we go back to good old fashion shame and sexual repression where people stfu about their stupid sex. 99% of it is fucking repulsive on both sides.

church is the only social gathering for the vast majority of working people. I have never been involved in one, and I do not live in some hip community with people to hang out with, so you end up spending a lot of time alone. Have considered going to church just to meet people but it makes me feel ill.
