ATHIEST! Why are you in the Religion and Spirituality section?

This year I’m keeping a count of how many times *I* see this get asked.

Sixty Five !

This sounds distinctly like the VERY OLD 'why do I come here?' question.

*drink*

****************************Apply what pertains to you ;) **********************

This gets ASKED SO OFTEN I prepared a list - what do you think of it ?

1. *drink*

2. Cos we can.

3. For teh LuLz.

4. How about ‘know thy enemy’?

5. I find religion totally fascinating…

6. And, I find the followers even more so.

7. Entertainment (mine) - Education (yours)

8. AND, cheap points are nothing to scoff at, huh?

9. Who else would answer all the questions aimed at atheists?

10. Religion permeates all of our lives whether we like it or not.

11. A-theism is NOT a religion but it IS a valid religious position.

12. The cats banned us from their section... cos we aren't cats(get it?).

13. Coming here, always makes me feel smarter-saner than I really am.

14. IF rational arguments worked on religious people there’d be no religious people.

15. No one does boolshit quite like Kent (is that how you spell it?) Hovind and his ilk.

16. I'm thinking... hang on a mo'… girlfriends cost more than hookers and wives cost more than both … sorry I was thinking about something else.

17. Cos religion is the enemy of reason – it’s not harmless, innocent, blameless, sunshine and goodness – we can NOT ignore atrocities committed daily in the name of invisible sky primates… http://kuro-kuro.org/archives/1903

18. Kid, if you and your people didn't go to such extraordinary lengths to try to convince me and my people that all that imaginary little cosmic chappie stuff was anything more than primitive superstition, you and your people would probably never hear from me and my people... just saying.

19. I come here to study the effects religious memes have on the minds they inhabit-control – it’s like a meme zoo.

20. The atheist created everything and when everything became too scary he invented religious fantasies to hold FEAR of death at bay - he was here for the beginning - he'll be here for the end ;)

21. George H.W. Bush: No, I don't know that Atheists should be considered as citizens, nor should they be considered as patriots. This is one nation under God.

22. You'd have to wonder why I get TUs with this answer - I reckon I cover it all - obviously the fact I'm not afraid of imaginary monsters in de sky scares some people ;)

Actually, I only eat one meal a day so I am trim with a nice bod. I hang around in bed because that's where the ladies want me. I am on Y/A because, let's face it, all that sex gets boring and I need something to do while they're bouncing up and down on me.

You know, it's not just the atheists who need to get some exercise. I'm going to go for a run!

To talk about religion, of course.

BTW, it is rainy out. Even if it wasn't, I can't go out until after work.

Just taking a break to let people know that religion is superstition.

It's actually a little cold today. I think I'm going to stay inside where it's nice and warm.

Based on your responses I have every reason to believe you are an atheist. So why the pretense?

It's raining outside.

It's nearly 10 at night here and it's wet and windy outside...I think I'll stay put.

Atheist can't help themselves! Especially when they are possessed with a reprobate mind

They help me to improve myself,

if it wasn't for their constant resistance

I wouldn't know how to deal with Protestants.

Gotta give them some Credit for the great

help they provide.
