ATTN: everyone!!! i am an atheist

[ACE_187]

look at me!!! i am so cool, and different. i use science to try to explain things, while denying logic. i hate religion, i think you should have sex as much as you want (even though i'll probably be a virgin into my 30's). look at me!!! i have a really boring life, so i get on totse, and try to look interesting. all the christian bitch cheerleaders are always stepping on the back of my hot topic jeans, and the christian football players are always giving me swirlies, and sticking broomsticks up my ass. now prove to me god exist (but stay within the boundries of science) now tell me how cool and rebelious i am because nobody in real life seems to give a shit.

You know, every so often I think "Hey, maybe the theists aren't as stupid as they sound and act. Maybe I've misjudged them."

Then someone posts a badly typed bitch-paragraph that sets up straw men and then tries knocking them down with emotionally driven arguments. That's when I know that I have understood them correctly... many of them really *are* that stupid.

I just read a holy prophecy. This thread will be locked. If this comes true the flying spaghetti monster is the one and only TRUE god.

But really.... I mean really.....
I understand what he was getting at.

"Omg u r so stupid, lol god in teh sky lololololocopter."

A lot of religion these days is turning to the belief that there's a limit to the human brain understanding the universe, that we'll never fully understand the mystery so why not humble ourselves before that, as god.
We push back the ratio of science and god, discover universes within atoms but in the end I think we'll be left with a mystery. This is where god comes in.
Have you read Hawking's theory of the universe? Are you a graduated physicist?
It's the prevailing trend to be atheist, a lot of people will spurt it, purely because they think the 'masses' are right.

The 'masses' just so happen to be the religious folks.

With the youngsters, sure it's a trend. And they'll go through a series of them before they ever really sit down and actually think about their core beliefs long enough to really get a grip on them.

It's only "popular" to claim a denial in the existence of God when you're an angsty teenager who is merely rebelling against your parents and the system.

As an adult, it's quite unpopular and quite against the "trend", considering that more than 3/4 of the world is religious. You take more flack from being an active atheist (if you even dare risk your professional and social life speaking out against the very trendy Christians), and you find yourself and your atheistic peers being very small fish in a very large body of sharks.

As an adult, there's a certain amount of social and professional liability that goes along with "spurting" out that you're an atheist. I contend that the majority of grown-ups who promote secular beliefs do so because they have a genuine agenda to set forth, one that they are confident in and secure enough with to risk being ostracized by their peers.

What ACE poorly described is a confused adolescent who is desperately seeking attention.
