It used to be that is board's dumbest arguments were of the fundamentalist kind: People like Quyst arguing about the evils of homosexuality and science and a 6,000 year old earth. Now, it seems dumbest arguments are of the atheistic kind: "God is exactly like Santa Claus: We can't prove that He doesn't exist... but we know He doesn't exist... and He raped Mary"
"You have no evidence to support your faith... and, you aren't allowed to have evidence to support your faith."
Atheists... Ya gotta get your shit together. There are tons of reasons not to believe in God. Seriously, you're making the rest of us look bad.  |

Yep, the shark has be jumped.
However it’s largely just a couple of posters so it’s more like the atheist ranks have been diluted.
This board needs a marketing campaign.

what if the evidence for a spirit entity were presented to the universe right here on this forum.
imagine the centerfold pull-out photo of the discoverer . . .
on second thought let's not and just say we did.

Try this thread: Hey, twits, how does science disprove God's existence? I think Santa starts showing up on the 3rd page. & Theists, you only have TWO arguments: PICK ONE!
It's what the OP is about. |

Here are some "smarter" atheists by my measures.
Many people who regularly attend religious services are atheists. You knew that much already, I'm sure. They attend for perhaps the wrong reasons, perhaps wrong at the time anyway. They go for the same reasons people attend sports or theater, just to interact with some community or other. Whether or not snakes can talk, people can and have a driving urge to talk to others. Religious services really are best for that.
Although they are just "following the herd," that isn't always a bad thing. If you're on an ocean liner and people are piling into the life boats, following that "herd" into the life boats might be the best decision you ever make.
The very smartest of the smart atheists, as I have mentioned before, are those who would develop a set of "commandments" much like the Ten commandments, just without the requirement for a god. As I also have already mentioned, it has not worked so well and I have explained this is likely the result of having no enforcement mechanism, near of far. There's nothing special to instill circumspection into the masses.

i need no god to comfort me
i could not
wait
till death nil came,
to reassess
if
life is vain.
for i
was once
a
man of thought,
who
listened boldly
with
my heart.
to friend and strangers
vast discourse,
i
plotted out
my sinners’ course.
against
the instincts of those men
whose rhetoric
was
to incense:
my primal urge to just
be me.
to swim against
this moral sea.
this
current of divine retort,
i swam
until i reached this port.
that
harbored me in
my own light,
of reason and of
knowing right.
that
all i've said and all i've done
is righteous in itself
i've come
to know the tenderness of men
divined
by seeking out a friend.
who found his harbor
next to me,
a ship of fools we'll set to sea.
and watch
the gods of other worlds
who sit and spin
their chiseled words,
upon the fickle and forlorn,
whimpering to be
reborn.
i need no god to comfort me,
adrift upon
my sinner's sea.
as
friend reached out and grabbed an oar
as
gods did wave from safety's shore.
we did not look to
say farewell,
we sailed our ship
right through their hell!
and let the winds of
time decide
who would be captain who would ride
the crest
of each and every wave
was
everest or sailors’ grave!
i would not know a god like him,
a man
who resonates like wind.
who shares
the bounty of his heart,
is
god enough
for me to start.
this
whittling of my poet's knife
to friendship
i am wed for life.
if vain
my life turns out to be:
at least i lived
inside
his sea.
sjw 11/16/09 inspired at this very moment in time by… he will know who he is.
