The End Of Faith, by Sam Harris

Answer 1

Absolutely none. People generally associate atheism with communism. Hitler was not an atheist, by any account. I guess you could claim Stalin was, but he did not use atheism to start a war. When they talk about atheism starting ww2, I think of all these other wars... I guess we could just label them the Christian wars and the Muslim wars. Of course, then we'd have to hear that those were not "real" christians and muslims. But that doesn't work for atheists... not with the religious ppl anyway.

Answer 2

it seems to me that this could properly be an rather loaded question. there is multiple recorded history approximately prepared religions and what human beings have completed on a similar time as they declare they have been appearing interior the call of God. From what i will tell, the type of atheists out interior the international is extremely small...even however no person quite knows for specific...and most of the history of atheism has type of long previous decrease than the radar. this is user-friendly to show palms on the plain inconsistencies of others, and if we are finding to locate hypocrites and individuals who do mean-lively issues, that's unlike a number of one team, believers or non-believers, has a monopoly on undesirable habit. what's likewise authentic is that there could be much less strife for anybody if we dealt with our fellow guy extra proper.

Answer 3

Say rather, what great achievements have been given to the world by atheism? What works of art, of literature, even of science? Newton, Einstein, even Darwin were all deeply religious men, just not Fundamentalist Christians. The irony of materialism is that, in the end, it teaches you to despise all things material. One thing though, Hitler was a devout Christian, Nazi German was founded as a Christian nation, and the Holocaust was a result of Christian churches world wide teaching that every living Jew was personally responsible for the Death of Jesus, a teaching still reflected in many denominations, both abroad and in the U.S., that one you can't blame on the atheists.

Answer 4

Miss Diva seems to be misinformed about World War 2 and Hitler. Hitler was a catholic. This from the following page. http://www.ronaldbrucemeyer.com/rants/0420a-almanac.htm "His Catholic upbringing, coupled with a disbelief that a Jew could really be a German, along with personal observations that Jews seemed to be too prominent in German society" Or how about this one. http://ffrf.org/fttoday/back/hitler.html or this one, http://www.remember.org/6/hitler-and-religion.html "Hitler was a Christian, not an atheist as the Christians would like everyone to believe"
Whoops one of us ignorant SOB atheists actually looked it up and Hitler was not an atheist but a Christian. Imagine that. Perhaps instead of believing everything they tell you on the 700 Club or in church, you should try looking it up.

Answer 5

Hundreds of millions of innocent people have been cruelly put to death by marxism, which has as its basis, atheism.

Atheism is a key component in national SOCIALISM (nazism), communism, socialism, and now liberalism. Atheism leads to genocide and always has. This is, of course, the point of atheism and marxism....doing evil deeds. Before a people will accept heinous evil, it is necessary to strip them of their religion.....to seperate them from God. This is a reliable and repeating pattern. Every single society that has adopted atheism (almost exclusively as a part of marxism) has committed genocide and other crimes against humanity.

Do you really think that people don't know you are trying to bring that here? How do you think people in the US will react to that once they fully wake up to what you are doing? You best think on it.

Answer 6

No, there would be nothingness, just like atheists have. Nobody would believe in anything enough to care enough to fight for it. A bland nothingness. People in Africa would still be slaughtered, pedophiles would still molest and kill children and have their "human rights" discussed to death, serial killers same thing, abortion would be the new condom, the big difference in society would be the one the atheists work so hard for, their misguided concepts of human rights, which seem to be mainly focused on helping the poor, misunderstood criminals.

Answer 7

I guess you never heard of World War II you ignorant SOB...

Look up Hitler and his Atheist beliefs... you may learn a thing or two about your Atheist "religion" and the slaughter of millions of Jews

Answer 8

No one has ever suggested that Stalin was born again and he killed millions. Mao and the Cultural Revolution wasn't a church picnic.

Answer 9

some people are insane....
hitler had a vendetta in his sick little mind... atheist or not... the act of one mad man does not translate into ALL people of similar religious whatever believe and act the same...

It's like saying that because some catholic priests molest children, all catholics are pedophiles and perverts...

Answer 10

Sounds like you need something to believe in,rather than calling yourself an atheist so you do nothing.Dont worry God believes in you because he created you.Like it or not.
