i think we all agree there's no absolute morality without God and relativism is unlivable.

Guy, did you fail maths? Percentage is a proportion. 21% of anything is a small part of that thing. 21% of atheist is not high, it remains 21% of atheists.

Or are you saying that 21% of atheists is a higher proportion than 21% of christians? Better start using your brain. They are the same proportion irrespective of the total figure
.

That's a lie. When you consider the proprortions it is a larger amount of the atheists that are getting divorced than the Christians. The atheists make up 21% of the divorce rates for the ENTIRE population. Note that atheists make up about 10% or so per cent of the US population. Sorry dude but your atheists aren't doing so well maritally.

Logicboy03: Hitler was an evolutionist? lol.....What is that supposed to mean? That Hitler was no a christian?

It means that a belief in evolutionary ideals and not Christianity drove Hitler to commit what he did commit. Eat that.

Logicboy03:
Atheism is not an ideology. It is a simple theological stance on the belief in god. Communism/Marxism on the other hand...

Atheism is an ideology. There are many books that expound on the ideologies of atheists one of which is a world without religion.

Logicboy03:
Anti-religion is not the same as atheism. Get a brain. If an atheist is anti-religious, it does not mean atheists are anti-religious. Criticisng the excesses of religion doesnt make one anti-religious.

But anti-religion comes with atheism. The thing about excesses is that they are not so easily defined. I wonder because some atheists have very loose definitions of what is an excess of religion eg criticizing the baptism of infants.

Whatever differences we Christians have , I consider all of them my brothers.

Most important thing is that we believe in the ONE and ONLY creator Yahweh and his SON Jesus Christ our Messiah.

Apparently I was wrong on the population thing but luckily it still doesn't topple my theory. You see a 21% divorce rate for a small group of people compared to a 27% divorce rate for a large Christian population is still pretty bad for the atheists. That is if you consider the proportions.

Lol, interesting. I'm joining this a bit late and no I have not bothered to read through the thread, I have only read the OP. A few questions I would like to be answered succintly though.............

Logicboy03: Considering the discrimination that atheists receive in many countries, one would think that we are some kind of devilish cult that sacrifice babies to our demon overlord. However, we can see that it is not quite so as many atheists live their lives peacefully. Many religious people say that atheists are immoral and dont want to have any responsibility for their actions. But is it so? Let us review some certain facts in this current time we are living in;
What exactly is morally wrong with sacrificing babies to a demon overlord?


a) Do unto others, as you would want to be done unto you;

Currently, atheists face discrimination by both christians and muslims in very religious countries. Take any sharia country where sharing atheism is met with either an arrest or death(http://www.aljazeera.com/news/asia-pacific/2012/06/20126146135415374.html). Take religious countries like the USA where the military has widespread discrimination against atheists (http://www.nytimes.com/2008/04/26/us/26atheist.html?pagewanted=all).

With all these cases of discrimination, do atheists retaliate? Lets look at Britain or many European countries that have a lot of atheists living with religious people. Do the atheists in these very secular countries discriminate in a widespread manner against the religious in general? No. You will be very hard pressed to find cases where a religious person was discriminated against by an atheist just for being a religious person.
Why should I treat people as I want to be treated when it is much easier to manipulate them into treating me as I want to be treated?


b) Sancticty of Marriage/Family

-Atheists divorce less than christians in America
http://usatoday30.usatoday.com/news/religion/2011-03-14-divorce-christians_N.htm

-Honor killing of wives/daughters is not an atheist thing, it happens mostly in muslim and South Asian communities
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Honor_killing

-First cousin marriage is not an atheist thing, rather it is more likely to happen in some Christain (LDS sects) and certain muslim societies
What is so sacred about marriage anyway?




c) Equality of women

-Wife beating is permitted in some interpretations of the Quran and hadith (Christian and atheists generally condemn this act.....impossible to find a pastor or an atheist debater that condones wife beating unlike some clerics/imams)
http://blogs.telegraph.co.uk/news/damianthompson/3683071/Lessons_in_how_to_beat_your_wife/

-Positions in organisations; Christains and muslims are now changing to adopt women as imams or priests. However, there are till conservatives that feel that this should not. There is no reason why atheists/secular humanists should be against women in leadership positions in organisations.
Equality of women? Says who?



d) Violence;

I dont even have to talk too much grin grin grin grin

-All I will say is that the most peaceful countries (top 10 on the peace index) have a high percentage of atheists and also have a falling number in church attendance. There is no muslim majority or sharia country in the top 10 peaceful countries.
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Global_Peace_Index#Global_Peace_Index_rankings

-Atheists dont blow up skyscrapers or abortion clinics or churches.
Why is human life sacred?

That's a facile conclusion. The Christians are more so its not surprising that their divorce rates are higher than the atheists. HoweverN considering them both in proportion the atheists are doing badly because they have a divorce rate that's approximately the same with the Christians.

Logicboy03: Fail....."God with us"...was written on the belts of Nazis.

Natural selection is not an ideology, is a commonly known fact. Fail.

So what ? That doesn't change the fact that they borrowed some of their ideals from Darwin's theories. Natural selection is a fallacy. A fallacy of reification. Nature is a classification, it couldn't possibly select.

You enter a church, pastor and 'high' members sit on a neatly deluxe handy furniture, with beautiful tiles on its floor...their own fan is special...sometimes the 'typhoon' series...blowing bliss...and there is the congregation...sitting helplessly on a wooden bench...or at a richer clime, a shabby plastic chair...often white...on just a concrete floor...or at poorer clime, just a sandy ground...poor ventilation...no air...worshipping god in utter discomfiture...and you see all these...as daily norm of any standard church...and you still wonder...what arrant morality? Then you appreciate you are an atheist...
