2. Bc they’re supposed to assume something doesn’t exist if they can’t prove it exists.
3. Bc they aren’t able to look beyond their “job training,” bc they’re proles
4. Because half of them are Losers who bombed the MCAT or Match Day or whatever |

Date: May 1st, 2025 10:45 AM Author: 718-662-5970 I dont know that I understand what atheism is, or how one can "be atheist".
Rejecting Roman Catholicism, fine. Or rejecting claims about a personal God, sure. Thinking some questions are still unanswered, or even that some questions will probably never be answerable, okay.
But confronting these questions, e.g.
- I have consciousness and a personal self, that emerged some time in my life that I do not remember. How and why and from where and for what?
- I see certain things come to be and then cease to be. How did *anything* come to be, and when, and why, and for what?
- How can I not even imagine an alternative to the universe being, given that there most likely was a state affairs without it? Or, alternatively, if it just always was, how the fuck does that work?
Confronting these with a fixed, certain and universal claim: THERE IS NO GOD AND I KNOW IT.
lmao. Seems like the most retarded and immature creed ever, arrived at purely to annoy or flip the bird, with zero justification at all.
One either assents to some kind of religious faith, or one does not and holds the questions unanswered. There is no "atheism" apart from performative adolescence |

Date: May 1st, 2025 12:57 PM Author: ~~(> ' ' )> Your definition of atheist is a bit strict. It often refers more broadly to those who lack god-belief, not just those who affirmatively assert god non-existence. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5719226&forum_id=2:#48896366) |

Big big difference between "athiests" who deny the existence of God outright (midwit total retards) and "atheists" who believe in God but don't subscribe to any particular popular religion (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5719226&forum_id=2:#48896077) |

Scientists dont believe in the loving God being that actively gives a shit about humans, but they dont deny something created everything.

Date: May 1st, 2025 12:08 PM Author: NOW! That's what I call Poasting! I'm aware of the distinction, but when people (including OP) use the term "atheist," they don't use it in this way. They just mean 'someone who isn't religious' (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5719226&forum_id=2:#48896237) |

Date: May 1st, 2025 12:22 PM Author: ,.,.,.,.,.,.,..,:,,:,,.,:::,.,,.,:.,,.:.,:.,:.::,. Most people don’t care about that anymore. Richard Dawkins won the war on religion. Far fewer people in America identify as religious after The God Delusion was published, and religions now have far less power. Check out this graph (God Delusion published in 2006):
Religiousmos fucked with the wrong atheist and he destroyed them and everything they care about as a result |
