Why are there so many people in the Religion/Spirituality section who don't believe in Religion/Spirituality?

Does that possibly make them....youknow......trolls?

    Sadly it makes you look ignorant and a BAD christian!

    Why are you so ignorant of what an atheist is?!

    More to the point if you do not know what an atheist is why are you so intolerant, hate filled, bigoted and persecuting towards them?!

    ATHEIST - someone who does not believe in a God – any God – not just the Christian one. But that does not mean they do not hold strong moral or religious beliefs! They can follow any religion that does not have a god and there are a lot of those!

    Like BUDDHISM – Religious teaching from Buddha and his followers that by destroying greed, hatred and delusion (the cause of all suffering) man can attain perfect enlightenment!

    Why so blind to what causes the backlash against christianity?

    ALL the other religions and atheists live in peace and are ONLY attacked by BAD christians which causes all GOOD christians to despair at the damage they do!

    Up until about 40 years back Christianity was thriving and there was no conflict with others but in just those few short years the modern christians have become intolerant, hate filled, bigoted and persecuting resulting in a growing backlash against christianity and causing christianity to loose over ten percent in less than a decade with the loss accelerating!

    The self destruction of Christianity is underway and the only thing that can stop it is to abandon the terrible human emotions, seek to rediscover the idea of a loving god and act like it!

    Why not change sides and try to stop the destruction and start talking about the loving god?

    I believe in Religion/Spirituality just like I believe in The Bible. I don't believe any of their claims are true but I know they exist. To answer your question though atheists and agnostics are positions about religion. You wouldn't have separate Republican and Democrat sections, you would have a Politics section where both sides of the issue are voiced.

    Usually I ask questions to try and understand the Christian point of view. I admit, I have always been baffled by the fundamentalist christian obsession with things that don't seem to have any effect on their lives. Take gay marriage for example. If some gay guys get married down the street, I would never know or care because it has absolutely no effect on my life. Christians however, seem to go bonkers over things like that, things which to me, seem trivial and unimportant.

    no trolls post stuff to make others angry. simply because i choose not to have a religion doesn't mean i don't have opinions on it. also many people on here ask questions relating to atheists and why they questioned god and all that because they are going through the same thing and would like to have some answers.

  • I don't know of anyone that doesn't believe in religion/spirituality.

    Even trolls believe religion and spirituality exist.

    I do know quite a few who don't believe in any god, me for one, but, that's a completely different unbelief.

    Well you know what they just can't stay away from being convicted. It is like getting used to electric shock therapy and really liking it. So they come back again and again just for a shocking experience! They just need some good ole fashioned conviction to get their hearts a spiritual jolt.
