Sorry Born Agains.... Hawking says there is no heaven.



Scientists, as well as most people, generally are not thinkers

The Definition of the Scientific Method
1. Use your experience: Consider the problem and try to make sense of it. Look for previous explanations. If this is a new problem to you, then move to step 2.
2. Form a conjecture: When nothing else is yet known, try to state an explanation, to someone else, or to your notebook.
3. Deduce a prediction from that explanation: If you assume 2 is true, what consequences follow?
4. Test: Look for the opposite of each consequence in order to disprove 2. It is a logical error to seek 3 directly as proof of 2. This error is called affirming the consequent.[13]

3 of the 4 steps require thinking you fuckwad
 
Since we're going for retarded logic how's this: Christians are much more annoying than Atheists and here's why: Everyone knows Stupidity is a terrible thing. However, because we can not discriminate on the basis of stupidity, people that are stupid still manage to: get elected to office, go to school with your kids, sit on PTA boards, sit on entrance boards at colleges, hire you for jobs...etc.

Atheists have a valid reason for trying to "impose" their non beliefs on you. To save you, and subsequently themselves, from Stupidity. If you honestly believed in your heart, 100%, without a doubt, that if you didn't give your friends/family/co-workers, etc... information you had, that they would literally be stupid for all eternity, wouldn't you try and tell them? Of course you would.

So the difference is Atheists will help enrich your life (you know the one you're actually living right now, not some very improbable one you'll be living after your dead) and it will help the atheists themselves not have to further be surrounded for all eternity (errr at least what seems like eternity) by stupidity. 2 for the price of 1...I win!

/retarded logic.

Wow, you had the intellectual capability to call religious adherents "stupid". Amazing, congratulations on your intellectual superiority! Now I remember why atheists are such geniuses!
 
Don't ever criticize scientists for being "intellectual weaklings" and then counter that religion offers a better, more thorough intellectual process. Fuck that is stupid.
QFT

... most scientists are little boys as they will follow fragmented pieces of information and measure pointless things but never be able to actually put it all together and really do something of value. They're parrots just like religious people.
You're a moron. Stop now. Please.

Scientists, as well as most people, generally are not thinkers or entrepreneurs.
Lolwut?

It's hurting my brain to think down to your level right now. Srsly.

I'll let dchuk say it again; his wording is so much more gentle and PC compared to what I'd say:
That is hands down the most ignorant, unintelligent, stupid fucking thing I've ever heard. Don't be a douche if your argument sucks man, you just look like an idiot.
 
Damn all these stupid 'non thinking' scientists inventing new medicines and technology.

Seriously, they don't know anything. They manage to continually invent new things and discover more and more about the earth we live in simply by regurgitating data that was compiled by other scientists who also can't think.

Imagine how much cool tech we all could have if only our scientists started thinking??... We could have electronical devices that we used our fingers to write words, and then those words could be transmitted across lines using electricity!! We could talk to people all over the world instantly without having spend months traveling in our horse drawn carts!!.....

from all the posts I've read from you I'm beginning to think it's easier to teach algebra to a dog then it is to teach you common sense

lol! those are truly the scientists you are mentioning and they do not whore their asses on TV channels for your entertainment
they have better things to do

btw, pseudo-scientists exist too yet they are touted as scientists
 
Thank you for putting so much original thought and analysis into something I have heard 1,000 times. This is what I'm talking about... you can't even be scientific in your assessment of my original thesis. Not once did I mention religion as being better than science. You are now doing what so many people do and breaking it into a religion vs science debate, similar to the left vs right debate politically. Just because I think a lot of what we call science is bullshit doesn't mean that I love religion. Religion is bigger bullshit than science. But science has its fair share of religious bullshit as well.

And I will criticize scientists as intellectual weaklings because that is exactly what most of them are. It's not a bad thing, most people are stupid. Scientists generally are smarter than religious people, but that's nothing to be proud of. That's like being smarter than a dog. Big deal. The vast majority of "scientists" aren't scientific or smart.



Scientists, as well as most people, generally are not thinkers or entrepreneurs. They're analysts. They observe data. They're parrots. They preach what their superiors preach. But they don't think or put it together in most cases. They aren't able to put pieces together and look at the big picture. They are too intellectually weak to estimate accurate conclusions and predictions based off the data at hand. This is why most people are bad investors and poor. They are very bad at predicting the future based off the data, or don't know where to look to get accurate data to begin with. This is the same reason most people think America is in an economic recovery and that everything is okay with our fiat dollar. They aren't cut out for the kind of thinking that separates the men from the little boys. And most scientists are little boys as they will follow fragmented pieces of information and measure pointless things but never be able to actually put it all together and really do something of value. They're parrots just like religious people.

So what or who do you think is going about things the right way?

Science - Bullshit
Religion - Bullshit

So who is going about it the right way then?

You talk like you have an alternative source to truth and I am sure that we are all very interested to know what it is.

Wait, let me guess.....Alex Jones?
 
Technically, micro and macroevolution are unproven theories. In science though, you need a significant amount of evidence before something is considered a theory and not just a hypothesis.

Wait, what was the topic again?

Evolution has actually been observed now:

I don't believe in god, but holy shit atheists annoy the fuck out of me.

You realise you're an atheist?

You've convinced us all with your brilliant logic. Carry on, good sir.

Funny as fuck coming from you.

The thing atheists seem to fail at is that they don't realize they are part of a religion that is atheism. The reason is that atheists believe that god doesn't exist, now take note of the word believe cause that's the important bit.

Believing that something doesn't exist is disbelief, not belief.

I noticed this as well. It's like a guy saying he's not gay but just prefers buttsex with other men.

This type of denial happens all the time. Do you know the number of people out there that say they're "not religious" in order to avoid saying there an atheist, because it's such a dirty word. Although I guess I don't blame them, given the widespread persecution to Atheists. But until enough of you guys come out of the closet, the fear and hatred towards Atheists will continue.

- Good catch there, can't believe I didn't see that post. I vote the most dumb-ass statement made on WF.

Ditto! Jeebus that was dumb. -I kinda wonder if it was in jest but it doesn't appear to go against Ly2's other sentiment here.

Finally we can stop making fun of HellBlazer for making the most idiotic declarations imaginable... Only temporarily, of course.

All hail Ly2! Stupid Fucking Fool of the day! :bootyshake:

He’s probably an agnostic atheist, like any intelligent person, you guys are the real dumb fucks.

In most of Europe religious people keep their opinions to themselves, while atheists can’t shut the fuck up.

BULLSHIT.

That source you just quoted even defines an "agnostic Atheist" as someone who "...does believe that one or more deities exist but does not claim to have absolute knowledge of such."

Ly2 said "I don't believe in god" - Which puts YOU at the #2 Moron spot of the day! :love-smiley-005:

The term Atheist is ALWAYS applicable whenever one does not believe a God exists. -Therefore that stupid-assed term 'agnostic atheist' is just a bunch of PC Crap.

Good points Bluuue.
Reading your words makes me think about Kant:

"Religion is too important a matter to its devotees to be a subject of ridicule. If they indulge in absurdities, they are to be pitied rather than ridiculed."

"Men will not understand … that when they fulfil their duties to men, they fulfil thereby God's commandments; that they are consequently always in the service of God, as long as their actions are moral, and that it is absolutely impossible to serve God otherwise."


"The death of dogma is the birth of morality."


"Two things fill the mind with ever-increasing wonder and awe, the more often and the more intensely the mind of thought is drawn to them: the starry heavens above me and the moral law within me."

Atheism is the non belief in a god or deity, it is not an organised religion or society, so as a person who doesn't believe in god he is an atheist by definition, whether he likes it or not.

In most of Europe religion touches almost every part of society in some way or another and not seeing that shows ignorance in its highest form. The only countries that might be a slight exception to this are the more secular countries (read atheist) like Sweden. You clearly do not get around and have not been to places like Spain, Italy, Ireland, France etc. if you think that religious people and religious influence isn't all around effecting all of us whether we like it or not.

The only reason that you might find that some atheists are more vocal is that we are sick and tired of living our lives being dictated by religions. It is basically a revolution and we are starting to win. If atheists stay passive and quiet then that means that we have accepted that we must live as second class citizens that are resigned to the fact that we must live our lives in the servitude of your beliefs i.e. lobotimised sheep

Uhm, no. It's not difficult to follow an hyperlink, just place the cursor above it and left click.

do not hold a belief in the existence of any deity, and agnostic because they do not claim to know with certainty whether any deity exists.
