Can an athiest please tell me why they get upset when someone takes hostages and kills them or when someone like Islamic State beheads children?
I do not understand you .On the one hand you tell me you believe in evolution and survival of the fittest and on the other you get upset when the species does exactly what darwin says it will do.DISCUSS as bob would say.

what nonsense.Can you show evidence?How about some fossils showing a change in kind?Also how about telling us what kept them alive while they evolved lungs and a heart?

Someone mentioned the IRA. Well they had it their own way for a while,
And then the protestants started doing the same back to them. It pulled them up for a while, then descended into **bleep** for tat brutality.
That is the way society tends to go with conflicts.
Explain why that would be bad?Just evolutionary process isnt it?

Ignorance more frequently begets confidence than does knowledge: it is those who know little, and not those who know much,
who so positively assert that this or that problem will never be solved by science.

More correctly, evolution is the survival of the most adaptable. If everyone ended up killing each other, the specie will not survive. We have a complex brain that allows us to think.
Explain to me on your world-view. If God asked you to kill everyone, would you do it? If God killed everyone, is God moral?

More crimes and hatred has come for religion than any other source through out history and always starts when one wants to take control over others because they believe they are the only ones that are right.
Then you are against darwinian evolution.That says the fittest survive.I want to know how you can believe in evolution and care about the weak.Simple question.
the only part of darwinian evolution I would like to see is the removal of warning labels to allow natural selection to weed out the stupid people that dont think.
LOL Don't think for themselves you mean.

so now evolution is wrong in your view if it has ideas which it did not first enunciate? you get your facts right.evolution teaches survival of the fittest.so stop crying when someone strong kills someone weak.accept it as part of evolution.
strapping on a bomb, using a gun, holding others hostage is NOT showing strength at all. It shows weakness, narrow mindedness sometimes mentally ill but never strength.
Also, survival of the fittest is about just that surviving in the wild, just to survive, to live to hunt food. Nothing at all to do with guns and bombs and torture and evil hearts
Out of curiosity why did you only use IS as an example? Other nutters also do this kind of thing just because they are nutters.
Survival of the fitteset has nothing to do with it and your grasping at straws to try and shock people is laughable

Just for the record, there's no rule saying that Atheists have to accept evolution. However saying that whether anyone accepts it or not, it's still a fact. Oh and there's no rule either that Atheists have to get upset when someone takes hostages etc etc......
There're masochist out there Atheists or not.
