the idea of some supernatural God makes me laugh
the idea that a fantasy god sending messages to men (and mind you all were men. no godly revelations to women) does not fit in with my erudite mind
comments?

because you are ignorant
my question to u is "How do you think earth and the human-beings were invented"?

How was earth and human being invented?? They weren't "invented". The Big bang theory works for me. The problem is that God did not make man in his image. Man made god in HIS. If we are so weakminded that we can't comprehend God's glorious plan as christians say, then why would that same all powerful God want us little flies worshipping him?
What joy do I get if I make the ants in my backyard worship me?
My favorite thing is the christians(generally all religions to be fair) that ask how you can explain the wondrous miracle of birth.
It's simple. Two animals of different sex copulate. The sperm fertilizes the egg, and BRAVO~ from there on. Sure, it's a miracle of science. But, no, not a miracle of a superstitious God. Sure, this debate will never be settled, everyone is free to have their own beliefs. It however amazes me that some people are so lost in their superstitious ways to think they've ebeen granted some amazing 'brotherhood with God" and that the rest of us are in the dark.
It is weak minds, terrified of the unknown, that need a religion to survive.

Then you are a closed minded person then. You initiated the question but answer it with a closed converstation. My question is. Why some atheist go to church when there is a severe disaster??? Why the Russian's Austronout who is an atheist when he was up there in the outer space said" There Must Be One Power to Controll All off These (stars and everything)". If you are really willing to find the truth, then learn the hystory and the bible. The evolution is not a theory but only hypotesis, becouse it has never been proven and generated on the experiment laboratory. Please define the meaning of theory to me. My grandparents are human and I am proud of being descendent of human being. I don't know how proud you are if you agree to be a descendant of primate.

So you are a feminist atheist?
Why are you an atheist? Because you do not believe in God.
Psa 14:1 For the choir director. Davidic. The fool says in his heart, "God does not exist." They are corrupt; their actions are revolting. There is no one who does good.
Psa 14:2 The LORD looks down from heaven on the human race to see if there is one who is wise, one who seeks God.
Psa 14:3 All have turned away; all alike have become corrupt. There is no one who does good, not even one.
Psa 14:4 Will evildoers never understand? They consume my people as they consume bread; they do not call on the LORD.
Psa 14:5 Then they will be filled with terror, for God is with those who are righteous.
Psa 14:6 You sinners frustrate the plans of the afflicted, but the LORD is his refuge.
Psa 14:7 Oh, that Israel's deliverance would come from Zion! When the LORD restores His captive people, Jacob will rejoice; Israel will be glad.
Act 2:16 On the contrary, this is what was spoken through the prophet Joel:
Act 2:17 And it will be in the last days, says God, that I will pour out My Spirit on all humanity; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your young men will see visions, and your old men will dream dreams.
Act 2:18 I will even pour out My Spirit on My male and female slaves in those days, and they will prophesy.
Act 2:19 I will display wonders in the heaven above and signs on the earth below: blood and fire and a cloud of smoke.
Act 2:20 The sun will be turned to darkness, and the moon to blood, before the great and remarkable day of the Lord comes;
Act 2:21 then whoever calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.

I cannot answer as to why you are an athiest, but I would like to correct you on the 'no godly revelations to women' comment. God spoke to Mary and gave her the most important task that has ever been given to a human.
You may or may not finish your life as an athiest. Just be open to the possibilty that God is trying to speak to you. If it happens, you won't be able to deny it, but you have the freewill to ignore it. Try not to.

looks like you are more interested in stirring up a bunch of controversial responses more than you are looking for an answer to a question. however I don't know many people with scholarly minds that waste their time with such foolishness. perhaps you are a tenured professor at a state funded school and just looking to waste time and tax payers money until you can find a new co-ed to hit upon. or, more than likely you are just a small-minded individual that doesn't know what to believe in so you come here to make yourself feel important by calling yourself intelligent. either way you aren't much of a scholar or atheist in my opinion. God did indeed talk to women just as he did as men, I would have thought a scholar as intelligent as yourself would have known that.

You're free to believe whatever you want, however if you were to read just a little of the bible you would see that God used both women and men. Have you ever heard of Deborah or Esther or Mary to name a few women? Faith is believing in the unseen. When you go back to the beginnings of man the question is - "and what did it come from" and so on and so on. After you go back as far as possible then my only conclusion for myself is God. You will have to decide for yourself what your conclusion is for you and you alone.

Actually, there was a Godly revelation to Hagar, Sarah's handmaid. Also, there's a Godly revelation to Mary (in the form of the angel Gabriel), as well as her cousin Elizabeth. I'm sure there are others, just look.

It makes sense. The bible is sexist, it tells people to kill their children and comes up with such myths as noah put all the animals into the ark. I've heard christians say that men were smaller back then and there weren't as many animals. Well there are over 10 billion species of animals (and no that doesn't include insects). If there was a flood which covered the earth then why did all the water drain away? and if it DIDNT cover the world then why did noah need all the animals?

Yes I just can't believe that this magical god could just exist for no reason at all. Of course there isn't any credible evidence for such a thing anyway. At least if you don't count talking animal books with talking donkeys and snakes as serious evidence.

we were all born with original sin from Adam, because of this sin we are sentenced to an eternity in hell. a few men choose to serve God and he said i will give man another chance. the Israelis were formed, but they sinned constantly. God said i will give them one more chance, he sent his son Jesus so that who ever believes in him will escape the fires of hell and go to heaven.
before you die you have a choice to make. will you look at everything God has created everyday of your life and say that just happens to exist God couldn't have made that, or will you realize that God is the creator and give your life to him
