I'm not a homophobe at all, I'm the total opposite. But do you think one of the reasons that gay people don't have the same rights as everyone else, in the 21st century, is because people don't take you guys seriously? Like the parades and stuff? I think you should show everyone that your not taking this whole "You guys can't get married thing" lightly. You should show them how mad you are, your motto should be "We're here, we're queer, and we're pissed!" Black people have rights, women have rights, diverse religions have rights. I know that gay marriage isn't against the law becuase of YOU, it's because of the homophobes and bible thumpers in the world, I just think we could get this gay rights movement thing faster if you just showed everyone that gays aren't pansys, because I have a lot of gay friends, I've seen them get mad I know you guys aren't weak. Don't hold anything back, don't dance for your rights, fight for them.

I just read some question about being "retarded", what is that guy's problem? Why does someone always have to show up and ruin the fun for everyone else?

Maybe I am being completely silly. But from a confused point of view - in Christianity, Christians say that God created everybody so why are there so many different religions? If people were created by God, does that mean they strayed from the path of Christianity and other religions are false and were created by these 'strayers'? Do other religions think this of Christianity? I really don't know what to believe, I seem to err on the side of Athiests at the moment because that seems so much more simple. Everywhere I look around the world, religion is the root of the problem and I just find it all totally confusing!!!!
Totally no offence meant, I wasn't brought up religiously, was Christened but to be honest have never even given God much of a thought in my day to day life. I have read the bible but that just confused me even more!

someone asked if "oh my god" was a swear word and a religious person says that it is using the lord's name in vain.

If that is very wrong to do (using the lord's name in vain) why is it that EVERYONE that is having sex says "oh my god!!" Are christians that say that ignoring God's decree? Do they have to go to priests and repent for saying "oh my God" while having sex?

The most logical answer I've ever gotten to this question was basically:

Because I just do.

Every other arguement that I've ever heard can easily be shown to be based on at least one, if not several, logical falacies.

Christians: I believe in God cause when I die, if I'm right, yeah, If I'm wrong I've lost nothing. But what about you atheists??

Christians: He is my lord and savior

Christians: Having God in your life brings morals, happiness, peace

Blah blah blah. I have read HUNDREDS of these answers and they are almost exact word for word by different users

Atheists this is for you; Are you happy? Do you have good morals? How on earth is that possible if...."God"... isn't a part of your life?? Do you find that thinking slightly ridiculous?

(I have been told by CHRISTIANS mind you that I have better morals than some of them - How is that possible?!?! *gasp*)

and since my beliefs are different than your personal faith, what do I really care what you think about your version of god and the after life....really...you can repeat a million times that I'm hell bound and wrong....but the truth of it is that you're only telling yourself that, and in my opinion, it's basically moot.

I'm pretty set in my ways that the the whole 'you must believe and accept Jesus to be saved' stuff is all mumbo jumbo, so having someone that has faith that is not jumbo mumbo repeatedly tell me I'm 'lost, wrong and going to hell' is rather comedic to me. I basically shrug my shoulders and walk by without an ounce of shame or guilt. While someone may be yelling that I need saving, I can relax and give a sigh of relief that I didn't fall into that pattern of faith thinking.

Does it bother you that I'm completely unshaken by your 'doom threats' about hell because in my opinion it's man-made and not real? Does it bug you that I'm completely happy without it?
