Atheists, how long will you continue to deny God's grace, you are under Satan's spell! REPENT I SAY!
Lol, just kidding.
Anyways, how come some of the atheists here I see are no fun? They take things literally. Like that time when I asked "What if God had a MySpace?", a handful of atheists kept saying "God is imaginary, there is no God", blah blah blah, we already know your opinion, you're an atheist.
Anyways, why do some atheists take things literally?
And, is it the same as those people who take the Bible literally?

Yes dude. You got it. I am not an athiest but I am sure it's the same. People have strong beliefs one way or the other.

I wouldn't say that atheists take things literally. I would just say that they are expressing their honest opinion. The reason many answer questions the way they do is because they are constantly being attacked when they either ask or answer questions.
It's far different from those who take the bible literally.

Because some of them are ex-theists and old attitudes may be slow to wear off. I mean so many theists seem to take everything VERY literal and serious... Becoming a non believer won't necessarily just wipe that away.

Don't worry. I know many atheists who have repented of their sins. If you don't repent yourself someday you will find out just how literal the bible is when it talks about hell. So continue kidding if you like.

Yes, God Almighty has a MySpace page, but he wouldn't add me as a friend because I am a Heathen.
(No. Seriously, that's what happened. I sent a friend request to someone with the name on MySpace of God and they denied me. lol)

Pretty much the same - some people take their non-belief as seriously as others take their beliefs. By the way, if God does have a Myspace, please pass along the address.

in a sense it is the same - both groups are defining themselves by what they believe, rather than who they are or what they do - and since that is their identity, they feel they must be as emphatic about it as possible. Learn to lighten up people! Accept people for who they are and learn that differences are what makes life interesting!

i'm nice, thank you. How are you? i've got by no skill committed issues like adultery, harming harmless human beings or any undesirable deeds; it may well be against my nature to break all people, and because my interest involves a branch of regulation enforcement I certainly would not dedicate a criminal offense. i replaced into approximately to incorporate fornication in there, yet remembered that it incorporates intercourse with somebody you're no longer married to; that occurred various circumstances with various human beings previously I have been given married, yet i do no longer evaluate that incorrect besides. And the word "sin" implies a non secular imperfection; and, as i've got not got faith in spirits, it follows that i've got not got faith in sin. If I did some thing incorrect against somebody, i wish i might have the integrity to apologise and make it as much as them as perfect i could desire to. And if it have been a criminal offense, i might could desire to report myself to the Police. BQ: sure, of direction I do (a minimum of "Bless you" if somebody sneezes), it rather is grow to be somewhat of the language and way of existence. And if somebody needs me properly, despite if what they say has religious connotations or no longer, I savor the kindness and friendship, thank them, and need the such as them. people who don’t have faith in God or gods, or supernatural beings many times, make options and function the comparable undemanding morality as all people else, as portion of the complicated behaviour types that developed in our species, and others. while various behaviour types conflict in a given concern, our upbringing, adventure, could desire to stay as portion of a community, and the gratifying chemical alterations that developed to ensue in our brains as quickly as we do somebody a favour, confirm which to suppress; that's often achieved subconsciously, yet can in specific circumstances be unsleeping (which would be what we adventure as judgment of right and incorrect). And while this is going incorrect, we've treatments as a species codified in regulations, effects and punishments. Having adventure of existence, I base my options on mutual admire and compassion for others. I do exactly no longer characteristic the beginning of ethical behaviour to mythical beings, or declare that the way we confirm conflicting behaviour types consciously is thru some thing supernatural or that the judgment of right and incorrect is supernatural or comes from a supernatural being.
