I was born into a religious culture, and developed out of that into atheism. For myself, I have answered the question "Is there a god?" to the best of my ability, using my powers of reasoning. So why, if you tell me a god made the universe in 6 days and is offended if I stay at home and masturbate instead of going to church, shouldn't I have the right to say "What a load of rubbish!" ?

You do have that right. Now,why not be happy with your decision and allow others to believe what they feel is true.

You can say whatever you like really. It's just more moral perhaps to maintain a modicum of respect for others? Consideration of their feelings? You either have faith in a religion or you don't; it's not a new phenomenon. So why do some that choose not to have faith feel the need to ridicule those that do? There's a difference between criticising a faith in terms of what it's about and why you don't believe it and ridiculing it to hurt feelings or to amuse yourself - not having religion isn't really an excuse to not have morals.

It does no longer amaze me to know people mocking religious views - that means also mocking God.. In fact, people like you strenghtens my faith in God for His Prophecies have come/fulfilled.. 2 Timothy 3:1-5..
When you believe in God, you can expect the world to hate you. In John15:18 - "If the world hates you, you know that it hated Me before it hated you."
For people who mocks God and who do not believe in God, John 15:16 has the answer. It is not us who will decide, but God chooses his disciples.
Sorry but maybe you were not among the choosen people of God.

you can stay home and masterbate, I don't care.
If you mock christians thats ok,
I don't believe ALL christians and ALL their beliefs, I don't believe the gap theory for one.
Go ahead and mock me.
All it does is amuze you, hurt you and nothing to anyone else, and if the christians are right and there is a God, then you have some explaining to do to him, he might not like what your doing. If theres not, have fun.
Anyways it doesn't bother me, have fun with your life, this life is all YOU have.

You have the right to have whatever opinion you want, just as long as you don't offend others with it. Is it really so hard to accept the fact that other people have other views? It doesn't mean you are right and they are wrong, or vice versa. We all have opinions, and some of us may even think about others "how can they be so stupid?" but it doesn't mean we tell them to their face, and it doesn't mean it's true either

You have every right. You where given "free will" after all. Mock me all you like it only says something about you and nothing about me. If you have answered all your questions, good for you. The only person you are offending is yourself. Good luck with that.

guy burnt witches, no longer faith, they did it interior the call of religion yet no the place does it say interior the Bibles NT that we would desire to continually be the choose on who lives and who dies in the international. The Bilble does no longer say the sunlight revolved around the earth, as quickly as returned, it became guy, I do beleive it became how technological awareness began influencing the church. do no longer inspect religious people as suited, no person is. people make blunders, blunders that look so loopy finding returned. Im no longer asking you to admire faith, basically admire your self and your relationship with God. Bless You! *H*

Nothing wrong with that, nothing at all. No atheist, speaking out of plain logic and common sense, could ever be as offensive as a religionist trying to foist his childish views (based on nothing more than hearsay and make-believe) on another person.

I got a violation for saying its a load of rubbish. That's my opinion so why shouldn't I be allowed to say that?! Christians are allowed to plagiarise with their quotes from the Bible and condemn us all to hell for not believing in THEIR opinion so why shouldnt I be allowed to voice mines?
Its all just craziness!

Nothing is wrong with mocking. Everyone is soooo afraid to offend people. I say rubbish! Make fun of as many people as you can. If they get offended, sweet. That is their problem.

It's a free country. But the "right" you say you have, under your premise of a godless universe, is also "a load of rubbish." Where there is no Supreme Arbiter of right and wrong, the strong win and the weak are trampled underfoot without mercy. Under such a system, there are no "rights," only temporary victories. Be careful what you wish for.
