To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 2:10pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
Please do not fall for religious guilt trips. We are better than those gods which mankind created thousands of years ago. Our inborn moral judgement has evolved further and exceeded theirs. Most of us have been victims of this child abuse of being told you are a "sinner by birth" and we "deserve" to go hell if we dont bow to the imaginary god. Let's stop the child abuse known as "religion", it's wrong to tell kids that they are by default born as a sinner. Children should be raised to have a healthy self-esteem. We do not need to bow and worship any ancient make-believe gods in order to be good people. We know what is good and we can do good. 1 Like

[size=14pt]Communism and Religion are both bad. And atheism is NOT communism. I dont have to defend this false accusation as you very well know the truth. I am talking about the unnecessary guilt trips religion inflicts on human minds..[/size] |

Communists leaders were motivated by a strong desire to impose an ideological "package" over the whole world. The package included the eradication of Religion, defined by arch-atheist, Karl Marx, as “The opium of the people.” According to Marx, religion helped keep the masses passive before the abuse of the wealthy and powerful, and the only way to free them from the “stupor," God and religion had to be eradicated. Lenin embraced Marx's views and so did Stalin up to the Second World war. The enforcement of Atheism was a “critical” requirement for Communism’s success, and thus it had to be implemented at all costs. This meant oppressive measures, such as brainwashing in state schools, the closing of houses of worship and arresting countless religious leaders. (For an enlightening discussion of Atheistic-Communism's persecution of the Christian church see the article, Persecution of Christians in the Soviet Union.)- Source |

Militant atheism, therefore, was a major factor in the murder of countless millions, during the past century. Unfortunately, militant atheism, is still driven by some of the same extremist views reminiscent of atheist-communist regimes of old. They, like their predecessors, do not hesitate to admit that they hate God, religion and that they would like to see both disappear forever. Furthermore, they are driven by a hatred for the unborn, and a blind support for common-law living, intimate immorality, euthanasia, etc.- Source |

Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 3:30pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
Logicboy03: funny frosbel, instead of talking about the issues raised on thread op, he wanted to divert attention to communism debate. |

TerryCarr: Communism is not that bad it depends on who's running interesting movie, still watching, he was not given time to show his true colors but these western imperialists, when will they just leave us alone to get on with it , I dare say they are the reason for the mess Africa is today. btw , he must have practiced a different form of communism to the atheist master Stalin, because he never persecuted or outlawed religion. |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 3:57pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
frosbel: nobody is forcefully outlawing or persecuting religion here. The thread is about exposing the mental damage religion does to the growing child. What you are talikng about is more relevant in the politics section than here. |

cyrexx: The guy is afraid. He knows that he has nothingto offer with his slave religion |

cyrexx:And when did the meaning of atheism become 'discovering and sharing of the truth'? |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by Nobody: 4:39pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
cyrexx: Try and sound reasonable so that you don't receive unnecessary flak. Speaking for Christianity, religion only becomes abuse when you force your children to adhere to a certain belief system without providing them with information and allowing them to to think for themselves and come to a conclusion, religion also becomes abuse when you misinterpret certain doctrines such as eternal torment and use it as a threat to force a particular belief on your children. Try and be fair, specific and educated in your statements rather than using the approach of generalization to accuse religion as a whole. |

Reyginus: And when did the meaning of atheism become 'discovering and sharing of the truth'? good question, these guys come across as tyrants ! |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 4:59pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
Reyginus: And when did the meaning of atheism become 'discovering and sharing of the truth'? see what I mean when i called you Anony v2.0 |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 5:03pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
frosbel: you do know that the doctrine of hell fire and original sin can be supported by the bible |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 5:06pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
frosbel: relax, bros. Nobody is tyrannising anybody. This is an anonymous forum. Its not like someone is pointing gun at you saying "renounce christianity or die" |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by Nobody: 5:18pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
cyrexx: Frosbel is a troll. He has nothing to offer than to claim victim of communism that happened years before he was even bron |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by Nobody: 6:01pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
cyrexx:Lol. I really want to learn something new today. Can we by the virtue of your explanation call atheism the 'science of truth discovery'? |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by Nobody: 6:06pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
cyrexx: What issues? |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 6:48pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
Reyginus: Lol. I really want to learn something new today. Atheism is not science. You dont have to accept scientific facts to be an atheist. Atheism is simply disbelief in God(s) and religions(s). Nothing more than that. The truth is that the gods of the religions were make-believe human inventions. If you came to the discovery of this truth, you are an atheist. No more no less. |

Ihedinobi: have you read the op? |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by Nobody: 6:58pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
cyrexx:Oh! My bad. Can I then rephrase it to be the study and discovery of truth? |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by cyrexx: 7:10pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
Reyginus: Oh! My bad. Can I then rephrase it to be the study and discovery of truth? discovery .. Yes study ... Not really. Its not a field of study. Its just a stance towards religion and their gods. Theism is belief in religion/gods and atheism is LACK of belief in religions/gods. Kinda like you were an "amusilm" and "abuddhist" |

frosbel:Funny how Thomas Sankara just happened to have been Roman Catholic.....interesting isn't it? |
Re: To All My Christian Friends... by MrAnony1(m): 7:52pm On Jan 20, 2013 |
cyrexx:Interesting how instead of tackling the question straight up you invoke the "anonyism" cop-out. |
