Not really , no. The criticisms of religion they presented, though maybe memed as primitive based on no grounding whatsoever, are just as relevant now as they were back then. And those still form the fundamental ground for why religion and a belief in deities can be dispensed with altogether.

Why do you pretend to appose Judaism and Islam? You never speak against them. You just say "le abrahamic" which only shows your utter ignorance and stupidity or just plain dishonestly. But all atheists are lying fools, so that's not surprising.

You're only upset with Christianity and because God is real and you hate God. You're not really bothered by Islam or Judaism (Talmudism). It's only the God of the Bible and Christianity that upsets you so into a violent subhuman ape monkey rage. I can see why atheists believe in the communist creation myth of evolution, because they're as dumb as an ape.

This thread also proves how gaytheists and fagnostics only really oppose Christianity, they're not raging at Hinduism or Scientology or Islam or the Talmud.

They really are just golem of the antichrist talmudic pharisee jews. You won't find any atheists today sounding the alarm over jews trying to criminalize the New Testament in America either, they'd all celebrate it because they're faggot communists who want a safe space from the Bible and Christianity. Even their activist groups like "freedom from religion" only really target Christians, and they're dishonest so they'll assert "separation of church and state" means no public appearance of Christianity is allowed, despite American laws used to be based on the Bible (like putting sodomites to death). Meanwhile, they don't care that their blind faith communist creation myths of the big bang, life from nonlife, and evolution of kids are tax-funded and taught as "settled science fact" despite violating all the laws of science. In order to be an atheist, not only do you have to deny science and the scientific method, but you have to remain deliberately ignorant.

The catholic cult literally teaches that it's a sin to believe the bible, like believing the gospel according to John or the 1st epistle of John chapter 5.
>I. John 5:13 These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.

And you shouldn't even have a Bible either, since your cult would torture people to death for having one or teaching from it or teaching their kids the Lord's prayer or translating the Bible into the vernacular. Be like the Mexicans who were kept illiterate until the 1900s by the Catholic cult and don't post ever again.

And no catholics ever get saved because they believe salvation by works, not by faith alone. They'll hear "I never knew you" because they never did the will of the Father (that's God the Father, not some boylover pope or priest). And most protestants don't get saved because they're too catholic and trust in works as well just like the Muslims or Talmudists or Hindus. All false religion teaches salvation by works since it's man-centered. True religion is God-centered and salvation is based on what God did for us, not what we can do for him. You want to glory in yourself and your flesh.
>Ephesians 2:8-9
>8For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it is the gift of God:
>9Not of works, lest any man should boast.

>Matthew 7:21-23
>21Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven.
>22Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works?
>23And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

>John 6:39-40
>39And this is the Father's will which hath sent me, that of all which he hath given me I should lose nothing, but should raise it up again at the last day.
>40And this is the will of him that sent me, that every one which seeth the Son, and believeth on him, may have everlasting life: and I will raise him up at the last day.

Yes? They held relevance in an era where evangelical Christians in America held cultural and political sway, but outside of science education they were massively ignorant, especially towards history, theology, and rhetoric.

They're not philosophically relevant.
In philosophy, faith has not been of relevance since, most likely, Kant or Husserl. From them onwards, most are philosophical theists (the abstract god of the philosophers), or atheists; faith in the Christian sense is just laughable.
Atheists were made to inquire into truth - philosophy starts with the destruction of dogma.

I think what irritates me about atheism the most, as a non-christcuck, is that it's not even honest. Self-described atheists just substitute christianity (because as others said, atheists are less anti-religion, and more specifically anti-christian) for this cancerous, degenerate, bizarro world protestantism that is liberalism in the west. They don't stop believing in god and dogma, they just subsitute the christian god for muslims and negroes.

What does this actually mean. Because most Christians are just culturally European plus believing in god. Does he believe that europe is culturally superior due to Christianity or due to their IQ. Because there are tons of places that are christian that are absolute shitholes

I'd say they stop believing in God but don't abandon belief itself. Which is frankly too much to ask, even of the most radical skeptic.

Why all these words? I stopped believing in any gods due to a lack of credible evidence. Nothing even remotely supernatural ever occurs, nothing in my life changed after I stopped believing at 14 years of age. I do fervently believe that humans are the goofiest creatures roaming the planet. Plenty of evidence to back that up.

I presume you were never very religious or had a religious environment to begin with. Those of us who do find it way harder to break out of it. And as evidenced by threads like this, some never do break out. It's all about thought patterns you see. I guy like you might face or observe a misfortune and never associate it with any supernatural cause. But I guy like me will immediately involve God into the situation

People have too grand of an expectation for what Atheism is or should be. Atheists are just people who don't believe in God. The people who think it has a deep social or political dimension are misguided. It's like saying that all bald people should form a single unified political body.

I was raised in the Catholic Church including grade school. I was force fed all these incredible stories for years but I couldn’t help noticing that nothing out of the ordinary ever occurred. Prayers were never answered, things that were supposed to provide empirical evidence like divine healing or other absurd miracles never transpired. As soon as I graduated from Catholic grade school I said fuck this shit and life was no different than it was believing in some nonexistent entity.

As a child I believed that the past was simply a more magical place. Which kind of fit my religion's theology. But yes, it becomes obvious thay this shit doesn't work and by the end of high school I was semi-out of it.

But you can still insert God in a world without miracles like I did. Something bad happens, God must be angry. Something good happens, God must be pleased. Even though these events had zero causality with the things we actually did. Good people suffered and bad people coasted through life in comfort.

Most people are too afraid to face the truth that man created god. They need to cling to a supposed higher power to protect them even though this never happens. Human stupidity has no boundaries.

Even the most “facts and logic” rational atheist is a human being who is motivated by emotional impulses whether they want to believe it or not. Most people have the ‘spiritual’ impulse towards something higher than themselves or object of worship. You cannot remove this function, save with a lobotomy pick :^).

I can agree with that, but Christians have to explain to me why their religion is better or more advanced -- not just the historical inertia of it -- than believing in the philosophy of The Matrix movies or getting into some modern fandom as a substitute for traditional religion (which many people treat as fandom now anyways).

Well, I agree with you. My problem with Christian apologism is it’s, not necessarily cart before the horse, but the basic foundational theological concepts such as the existence of God or implausibility of a materialist ontology which serve as a mere stepping stones towards justifying the Christian dogma and more technical, specific concepts such as soteriology, theodicy, divinity of Jesus, etc. The primary goal in a rapidly secularizing world should be justifying God’s existence and the validity of a general religious sentiment.

I hate Hitchens so much. Used to love him. I despise him. I can't stand to look at his fat fucking smug sweaty face. Fuckin piss drunk sophist who never argued anything, only "owned" everyone. Fuck Christopher Hitchens.

Sam is also annoying but less like this

Dawkins is just an actual idiot. A bad scientist. But not worth taking seriously, anger isn't even worth it. Dawkins is a historical footnote on a long timeline who got fooled by short term popularity into thinking he has any importance or relevance.

The tradcath larping is one of the best examples of how thoroughly secularized our society has become since religion has become nothing more than a farcical means of in-group identification. These people believe in it as a rejection of liberalism, not because they recognize any true value in it. I respect atheists and weird evangelical denominations who authentically own their beliefs more than the average online anime avatar with the Vatican flag next to their name.
