New to this board and want to know the rules? Have a question for atheists? Then you should probably read the FAQ (Updated: 3/19/15). It's not necessary, but don't be surprised if people ignore you if you don't elaborate further on a question already answered here, or the moderator does something you didn't expect.

Why do Atheists only target Christians(most of the time)

Specially makes fun of Jesus only, and never Satan.

it's because atheism is another term for Satanism, and is a secretly cult that is very successful in brainwashing prepubescent fedora wearing mlp watching teens.

Probably because your Satan, Lucifer, devil, whatever the fuck it is gets enough shit from you. In fairness, he's the guy that keeps the bad from the good, the sheriff. And if not for him, there'd be nothing to test your faith and give you a chance to go to your heaven.

But it's all ridiculous and just begs the idea that good and bad are on in the same and both need each other or else there's no purpose. What's life without challenges? If all needs and wishes desired, what's the point?

Islam has been a pretty big and entirely valid target for over a decade now.

Also, the satan concept gets mocked all the time.

Unless you mean to say we're too hard on jesus and not hard on satan. And that probably has something to do with the disproportionate lack of justifying for satan's atrocities.

It's because insulting Muslims would be racist and atheists need to show how enlightened and progressive they are to each other. It's almost like a cult really, except even more pathetic somehow.

And no, it's not because they're afraid Muslims will shoot them. You don't fucking invite Muslims into your country, let them implement sharia law, and cover up child raping for them if you're afraid they'll kill you.

Sam Harris is right that Tibetan Buddhists don't blow themselves, or drive trucks into crowds and then jump out and go on a stabbing spree like certain Chinese Muslims. However the monks have lit themselves on fire many times in sign of protest; they simply don't kill others while they do it. There have also been Buddhist warrior monks in Japanese history.

I want to see what religions exist in those 100 billion other galaxies. If I lived in the future I'd laugh so hard at how ethnocentric, chronocentric, and geocentric it is to believe God's only son in the whole fucking universe came to Earth alone. Then trillions of aliens were condemned to hell for billions of years until humans made contact with them, to show them the error of their ways with our more accurate religion developed by ancient desert peoples.

Of course, it will take at least millions or billions of years for humans to spread the gospels to every corner of these 100 billion galaxies. God might be impatient and bring Revelation to bear before that, and then all the stars will "rain from the sky and go dark", meaning entire solar systems will probably never get to hear God's word. The inhabitants of these worlds who feel the physics of the universe thrown apart due to our ancient prophecy, will wonder what the fuck is wrong with the universe when they wake up to be judged by a God they never heard of from the desert of Caanan, on a star they probably hadn't even catalogued yet.

Speaking of other species dying, I met a Catholic missionary who thinks her dog will meet her in heaven. How does that work? So dogs judged too? Do only the dogs with Christian masters go to heaven? And is hell filled with disobedient wiener dogs, and pitbulls that barked too many times, or mauled too many squirrels? Are there trees and bacteria in hell? Do they store have all non-sentinent life there too?

So I guess hell has forests and tons of ancient bacteria and viruses just piled ontop of each other, because nothing ever truly dies, it's just sent to hell. The grimes covers the trees, and wherever you walk in hell, you step upon tons of quivering bacteria, just stacked ontop of each other. There's probably even an ocean in hell to contain all the plankton and seaweed, because Satan doesn't like there to be too much green in a fiery abyss. It must be a fucking biosphere down there, with dinoasurs and giant beavers, and pteradactyls. Unlimited deer….this is starting to sound like Eden. I bet the bacteria and viruses couldn't even hurt you if you're already dead.

Hell is gonna be lush as fuck. Tell Christians not to be sad for you, because you are going to a better person. Tell them you'll weep for them because heaven will probably be a sterile place full of artificial materials like ugly concrete and asphalt wherever God ran out of the gold he promised. It will be super over-crowded too, because God forgot about the righteous alien converts when he was preparing it.

Cities in hell are gonna be gardens, and surrounded by miles of corn, and the caverns will look like this. I want to believe in hell again, so I can spend my after-life fishing in the company of good and intelligent people.

If you really want to know why you hear more shit against Christianity, it's because shitting on Christianity takes at least some effort. Islam does enough to make itself look retarded. It'd be like making fun of a 3 year old with severe downs. But hey, I just bumped an anti-Islam thread to page one, so feel free to participate there. Also

>Ayaan Hirsi Ali, Critic of Islam, Will Headline American Atheists’ 2015 Convention

>“Ayaan Hirsi Ali is champion of atheist thought, but even more to the point, she is a champion of atheism activism,” said Silverman. “Ms. Hirsi Ali is a strong voice of reason and a passionate voice against the cruelties and irrationalities inherent in religion. Islam, like all other religions, silences and blinds people under a banner of ‘tolerance’ to the real atrocities it encourages and excuses. Ms. Hirsi Ali continues to be one of the most powerful voices in the world in this fight, and we can’t imagine a better keynote speaker for our 2015 National Convention. We’re proud to have her.”

>“We do not believe Ayaan Hirsi Ali represents the totality of the ex-Muslim experience,” members of Yale Atheists, Humanists and Agnostics posted on Facebook Friday (Sept. 12). “Although we acknowledge the value of her story, we do not endorse her blanket statements on all Muslims and Islam.”

>Writing on his Friendly Atheist blog, author and activist Hemant Mehta wrote, “I hope that these students who would rather she not be invited at all actually attend Monday night’s event. Don’t just protest outside and leave. Listen to her story and respond if necessary. That people are so sensitive to criticisms of Islam is reason alone for why her invitation is a welcome one.”

>Why do Atheists only target Christians(most of the time)

2 things:

because you are a Christian. If you were Muslim or Jewish or Hindu you would ask the atheists from other part of the world why they focus on Muslims or Jews or whatever, and you would ask yourself whether atheism is a work of the evil forces which those religions happen to believe in. Your perception could be biased.

But there might also be some truth in it. Atheism is not homogeneously distributed in history and geography, and nor are the different religions.


8addec No.8901

>>8792

So you are not joking?

The initial claim you attacked was that Ayaan Hirsi is supported my most major atheist organizations.

If you can't see that being invited as the keynote speaker of the yearly convention of the biggest national organization(hell I can't even think of a stronger endorsement, other than making her the president of the organization herself) is not 'the same' and weights heavier then a facebook post of a an unassociated university chapter then you might as well be legitimately retarded.

And by the way, you'll need evidence that all or at least a vast majority of atheists see Islam as a race, and that they think it's racist to arrest a muslim for rape. Not just some retarded liberal who happens to be an atheist saying it.

Most people aren't aware of the limitations of syllogisms. I actually like the cosmological argument because it was the first argument for god I ever came across that was built solely on logic. But the logic is of course flawed. I think a good way to demonstrate this is "proving" other religions through overly simplistic syllogisms. Rather than pointing out that the assertions that the cosmological argument makes are basless. That's often too much for believers to handle.

For instance:

>every action has an equal and opposite reaction

>humans are capable of committing actions

>therefore, the Hindu concept of karma is real

Any thinking christian could point out the handwaving here but rarely will they turn that same scrutiny towards their own faith.
