ATHEISTS: Do you realize that discussing a non-existent being are the symptoms of a mental illness?

Question

While you don't believe in God, you feel justified on bashing God or attacking those who believe in something that you KNOW doesn't exist, fighting against or even discussing about a non-existent being are the symptoms of mental illness!
Is atheism a mental disorder? Atheists seem pretty wacko to me!
If you atheists don't believe in God, then why do you talk about Him so much?
Either you've got a mental illness or you really DO believe in God! Which one is it?

Yousdummy: your name is very fitting. Good job. This question is clearly beyond the scope of your inferior intellect.

So basically this tells me that all of you "atheists" are mentally ill or you are pretending to be atheists and you really do believe in God! Thanks for confirming my suspicion.

Answer 1

It's simple. We are just trying to talk you out of believing fairy tales.

If God existed, you would think that we wouldn't have the option to argue about it.

And instead of just showing up and proving himself, God sends weak minds to defend him in his absence.

Not very wise for an all-knowing God.
WHO has a mental illness?
YOU DO!!!!

Let me put it this way...
If, at the ripe age of 40 years old, I told you that I still believed in the myth that a fat man in a red suit climbed down the chimneys of every child in the world with toys and candy, after landing on the roof in a sleigh pulled by nine tiny, flying reindeer, the lead reindeer having a glowing red nose, every Christmas Eve, you would call me crazy, superstitious, and immature.

Yet, you believe (I assume) that a man named Jesus was born from a virgin mother, regenerated limbs, healed leprosy, raised the dead, commanded the weather, was himself raised from the dead after being hung on a cross, and was physically lifted into heaven.

And the difference in mental deficiency is........?

Answer 2

If discussing a non-existent entity, do Christians have a mental disorder? Atheists (at least the ones I know) do not have a mental disorder, we just talk about it because you guys force it on us. Does talking about Homer Simpson, how he's so cool, be considered a mental illness then? I am not fighting against your God, because how can I if he does not exist? I am merely fighting against you people, who try and shove your God down my throat. Maybe you're getting confused with that? And if you say atheists asking questions about God, that is merely a debate technique, asking a question that causes you guys to think, but unfortunately, it does not seem to work that well. Do you have a mental illness then?

Answer 3

"Do you realize that discussing a non-existent being are the symptoms of a mental illness?"

Then I guess we can't talk about TV characters either?


"If you atheists don't believe in God, then why do you talk about Him so much? "

1) I don't believe that the show 'Heroes' is real but I talk about that plenty. Perhaps the topic is interesting, even if it isn't real?

2) Do you think every atheist in the world comes onto Yahoo and discusses God all day long? LOL. You see atheists in the real world every day - you just don't know it because most of the time atheists talk about other things.

Answer 4

You are really, really off base here. What's wrong with talking about a fictional character? I don't "fight against" God, because I know him to be imaginary. But I do dispute many of the things believers say, and I don't see how that makes me insane. Actually, believing that something fictional is real would be more a description of mental illness, but in fact it is more a cultural illness in most cases. In your chase, perhaps . . .

Answer 5

no longer probably. Are you particular you relatively understand what your speaking approximately? If it have been you who observed or talked to an entity then i'm rather particular you would be somewhat confident it became into authentic. it relatively is style of perplexing to instruct you until eventually your in that persons footwear. So convincing somebody that it is not there is like telling a 5 365 days Santa would not exist. as properly you nevertheless do no longer even understand if it does or would not exist. you would be wanting evidence to instruct it would not exist in the previous calling somebody loopy.

Answer 6

Actually, it is the theists who spend more verbiage in discussing a non-existent being. But the real point is that people should think rationally, as it is the capability to do so (and ONLY that) which has permitted the race to escape the fate of the woolly mammoths and other species that didn't survive the Ice Ages. So, the purpose of atheists to participate in this forum is to try to teach people to think rationally, and encourage them to do so -- for their own benefit, and that of society as a whole. Once they do so, it is impossible to draw any conclusion other than that religion is nonsense -- in the literal meaning of that term.

Answer 7

If you lived in a country where 80 % admit to having the mental illness of religion, wouldn't you be talking about the nuts around you? But, congratulations, you are able to twist the facts around like a professional believer. Not convincing, but you can at least hold your own with other believers.

Answer 8

First, people attack the belief in the non-existent being...not the being.

Second, if one is mentally ill for discussing said non-existent being, what does that really say about the faithful?

Answer 9

Well, if something seems pretty wacko to you, then it probably should be considered for inclusion in the next edition of the DSM-R.

"Either you've got a mental illness or you really DO believe in God!"

Isn't that the same as saying, "Either you've got a mental illness or you've got a mental illness!"?

Answer 10

Your comments reveal the kind of reactionary thinking and circular logic common to those who still subscribe to the ridiculous Stone Age ideology that is found in the Bible and other primitive texts. The real mental disorder is the delusional and pathetic clinging to irrational beliefs and silly dogmas that is common to all religious believers.
