You should know this by now. Atheists have no belief system and not based on anything. It's the default position. It's the same as you're an atheists to unicorns or Islam. The people who assert something has no met the burden of proof so therefore you don't believe. Doesn't mean they know with absolute it's not true. THe only thing Atheists have in common is they don't believe in God. THey can have other stupid beliefs as well. THey can be irrational, anti-science and anti-gays.  

 

You can have life after death with or without a God. God is not a pre-requisite.

so why the fascination with God?

Why don't you get chat to the people who believe in unicorns?

You've really done the whole God thing to death now.

The horse is dead.

Crucified even.

Though I spose whilstever you keep resurrecting him, he's going to have eternal life, eh?

Why don't you get chat to the people who believe in unicorns? hahaha

It has been said that religion is that which brings people together. But I wouid say that it is equally that which drives people apart, according to their differences of belief.

why are you so defensive? Do you fear your position is not defendible? Don't you welcome a challenge to religion? Do you want Islam to take over? Do you think they should enforce Sharia Law as in accordance to the Koran? Islam is the fastest growing religion in the world and if you don't consider Catholics, Christians, Islam is already the largest religion in the world.

Do you know anyone who believes in Unicorns? Would you consider them delusional? You do realise there's more evidence for unicorns than the bible God right?

How on earth did you get all that from Crikey's post???

I don't actually, because I have never met an atheist who believes in life after death.   I have never met an atheist who believes in the supernatural.   So for those that do, why such opposition to attributing it to God?

I'm sure you haven't but that isn't what determines who an Atheists is. It is also possible for a theists not to believe in life after death .

You're also confusing atheists and secularist. Atheists can't be opposition to something they don't believe exist. Secularist and most theists want a separation of church and state so they have an issue with those who use their religion/God to enforce rules on others.

I don't understand your answer.

I was reading between the lines. He seemed a bit miffed that religion is discussed. He thinks people's belief should not be challenged. If he really cares about the truth, he would be welcoming all discussion/evidence that comes to hand. I was just using Islam as a example. I suspect he would not be too happy allowing religion to take over if it's not his religion.
