@Cyrexx, stop tripping, will ya?

Saying atheism is a conclusion is the biggest joke of the century...but again, you might have a point.

Atheism is a conclusion of nothing, out of nothing, from nothing...Blah blah blah.

Of course some people will find some sound philosophical and proven scientific arguments "shallow and unworthy" because their minds has been configured to believe apriori that "a fool says in his heart there is no god"

I wonder if their mind will work the same way if their scriptures has configured their mind to believe that "a fool has said in his heart, god is a dead jew that impregnated his own mother to give birth to himself and sacrificed himself to himself in order to appease himself"

Indeed!

A fool says in his heart that there is no God. smiley

To be honest, such thinking is so shallow it borders on stupidity.

You'd expect people to use something strong and worthwhile as arguments not such pathetic stuff.

Congratulations on your independence!
I don't think you really need to adjust your life style as an atheist, this is because our life style is the most natural and default way of life (remember babies are born atheists).
Myself as a Muslim that dumped Islam for atheism (i've been an atheist for a year now) and i realized that:
1. I no longer feel guilt within me how much more seeking forgiveness.
2. I'm no longer scared of the imaginary hell fire our Imams have been preaching about.
3. I don't need to worry about where i am going to after death, as i don't even know where i was before my Mum conceived.
4. No need for repetitive and boring exercise they called five daily prayers
5. No need for starving myself in the name of Ramadan fasting.

Happy Sallah in arrears to all my Muslim brothers and sisters.


Congrats!

Worthwhile arguments has been presented but they have little effect on religious minds.

No, we have yet to see any worthwhile arguments from fools!

Well, they are fools so we don't expect better.

Oh and of course even the "religious mind" is, in the final analysis, better than the mind of a fool!

mumumugu: Define atheist

it is a person who sees the truth,knows the truth but refuses to accept the truth .

Wrong! It's someone who doesn't believe just any rubbish but is ready to see evidence. No evidence no proof!

The difference is that this [img]http://img1.nairaland.com/attachments/1256363_Makes-perfect-sense_jpg5ec80431e2812d6efe92a0e5b45a881a[/img] is what christians actually believe
















While this [img]http://4.bp..com/-MPC8CP_0Og0/Tke4-ft5kgI/AAAAAAAAAgI/Q7mDox9E75M/s1600/atheism.jpg[/img] is just a collection of strawmen that in no way reflects the accepted scientific view.

But I bet religious folks like Enigma will say the baby set themselves on eternal fire by choosing to believe their mother didn't exist.

Nope you got it wrong. It's never God's intention for mankind to goto hell fire, likewise ones mother never intend her kids to miss their way. But in the end, your destiny lies in your hand(thanks to free will). It's up to you to make the decision on which path to follow. If you miss your way and end up in hell fire, that is your own making, not God's. Likewise if you make wrong decisions in life and end up in jail, it's your fault, not your mothers. ¿Comprende?
