What part of atheism do you think is BS? Is it the rejection of the theistic claim that God exists, which has never been supported by any verifiable evidence?
Or is it all the other parts of atheism that you've imagined in your addled brain?
Atheism is the single reaction to the incorrect statement "there is a god running the place by magic", and that reaction is simply "I don't believe you". Proving wrong atheism is very easy. All it would take is just one god to exist, and there would be no more atheists.
Until there is a god, there will be atheists.
nice to see a religious cult victim admit their religion is BS...
I don't know what modern Atheism has evolved into - but it is purely not believing in men in clouds ,flying monkeys or unicorns
No - for a start it's not a religion. It's simply a term for those who don't believe that a god exists.
A descriptive word, when it obviously refers to people who definitely exist, cannot possibly be BS.
Atheism is a personal relationship with reality that all people should partake in.
no it isnt, turtle dove 🐍🐏🌈🐷🐒💩
No, atheism isn't complete BS - it makes no claims so cannot be false itself.
There is truth in some religions, so I wouldn't say they are *all* BS.
How cute, a brain dead fundie being brain dead on this forum, who would have ever guessed. Atheism is not a religion.
Atheism follows the facts, its religion that is BS.
here we go again, another idiot who cant look up the definition of atheism.
It is the lack of belief in a deity. END OFF.
If all religions are BS, you end up with atheism, but if atheism is also BS, you end up with nothing that isn't BS.
Nothing else to choose from...you are either a theist or an atheist...agnostic...anti-theist.
For me, as an atheist, I don't believe in any gods....up to you what you want to believe...or nothing...you can choose whatever you want.
Atheism is the lack of belief in god(s). Period.
Actually no, it isn't ... Atheism is a *pleasure*.
Atheism is a "lack" and denial of religion, gods, and deficient symbols, and a decision not to require any.
It allows you to live outside of the rules & conditions of religious bullsh`t and lies --- Atheism = Freedom & Life.
Intriguing question, really...
If atheism is BS, and ALL the religions are BS, then what are you left with? Are you an irreligious theist, or deist, or pan(en)theist, by any chance? I'm just getting mighty curious as to what your perspective is... ;)
Anyway, atheism is one possible way to perceive the universe, that makes sense from a certain angle. It isn't MY preferred perspective either, (although it used to be at one point), but still... It's not as if it's outrageously unreasonable or anything! :-P
If people haven't had certain experiences, it very well might be what *sincerely* makes the most sense to them. (Like I know it did to me...) And even if people HAVE had certain experiences, (namely, powerful mystical experiences), some of them might still remain atheists, and interpret what happened to them within a strictly atheistic framework. (Although I know I didn't..) Plus there is also the fact that some people really like using the word "God" to describe the Infinite, and the Ineffable, while others do not.
Anyway, I think smug, close-minded, arrogant anti-theism is, indeed, complete BS! I do not like that ONE bit! Just like I don't like hateful, restrictive, dogmatic organized religion either. So yeah... I am definitely NOT Team New Atheism anymore! Let's just put it that way.. :-S
參考: Personal experience and such.
no dear, atheism is just a reliance on logical fallacies. But most religions teach the true love that this world so needs.
I do not think so. Of course, you know, BS is just your way of saying, "I have no clue why you live your life the way you choose to, so rather than admit I'm a clueless twit, I'll just say your way of life makes no sense. Any vulgar term will suffice to convey my contempt, so BS it is!"
Atheism (agnosticism, actually, but that's another rant) is just as legitimate as any other viewpoint. And some people seem to be actual atheists. You do well to learn the differences.
By claiming there is no God out there you're claiming that you know everything there is to ever be known about this universe.
