I am an atheist, and I'm seeing something fairly often in these questions and answers. I see plenty non-Christians using Zeus as an example in many comparisons of how the Christian faith works. I completely agree with these comparisons, but what makes Zeus less logical to accept than the Christian God?

Making such comparisons might even offend some people who do believe in Zeus (few as they are), and who wants that to happen?

The Bible speaks of many prophecies. I wondered if anyone knows for sure which have come to pass already and what's next for us?

By principle I mean something along the lines of "gratitude" or "helping others"....but feel free to include stuff like "getting my mind off things by listening to music", "walking in the park to feel connected to my spiritual side"
etc.
I'm trying to help some folks and have hit the point of "writers block"
Thanks for any inspiration
Be well

Most medications have all sorts of warnings on them. "Don't take when pregant" or "Can blur the vision"..those sort of things.

The claim that "God" performs miracle healings, makes some people stop their medication and put all their hopes on "God". I realize that the mind is a strong tool in the process of recovery, but my guess is that the claim "God heals" has killed more people than it has healed. Which makes "God" a lousy doctor.

But should these people come with warning labels? Something like "You can listen to me, but please note that if you stop taking your medication, this and this and that can happen?" (Not a real catchy slogan, I know)

I mean its gotten asked at least 30 times tonight! Look, Christians, Pascal's Wager is a stupid argument. It doesn't work, and its never EVER impressed us Atheists. We see it for what it is...BS. All you are doing is making yourself look stupid.

The bible states unambiguously that it was a cross and not a stake. And you can't say the bible is corrupted because then you would be contradicting your own belief that the bible is infallible. I once read in a JW pamphlet that saying the bible is corrupted is accusing God of weakness for not protecting his word. Isn't interesting that JW would believe in nonbiblical things like the 6,000 year old earth theory, a fabrication of some clergymen and young earth creationists, but deny things that are actually in the bible? I know you think the cross is a pagan symbol, but since the Romans were pagans and used crucifixtion, why would the origins of the cross rule out the possibility of Jesus dying on one? So the Romans just decided to use a stake instead of a cross in the case of Jesus to accomodate the beliefs of Jehovah's witnesses.

There is a story in Sahih Bukhary about prophet Muhammed who heard of a temple in Yemen (more than 800 km from his Medina) where some people used to go and worship their own god. When prophet Muhammed heard of that temple, he sent some of his companions and asked them to DESTROY that temple. The Muslims raided the village, DESTROYED the temple, KILLED people who were there, and looted the village.

Does that story stand with what we heard of prophet Muhammed being tolerant?

I can say that 9/11 changed me forever with respect to my religious beliefs. Before 9/11, I entertained a belief that a god existed and that he cared for us. 9/11 was pivotal in changing the way I feel about religion. I now am a confirmed atheist and don't believe that a god ever existed. Religion is a curse on the world and not a blessing as most of the world believes. I think it will be the undoing of civilization and possibly humankind. What do you think and how many people can say that 9/11 changed their belief system in this way?
