If you're intelligent you know your grammar . And as I am not planning on having any descendants, while I worry about the state of the planet for the next generation I'm far more interested in stuff that happened to things that haven't been involved in my descent for several hundred million years.

Atheists aren't a complete waste, they serve as a warning to good, moral people about how hedonism, Darwin, and rebellion leads to an empty, meaningless life filled with vitriol, bitterness, and melancholy.

I'm Christian only in the sense that the religion I had to conform to growing up.

A Deist is not a Christian much more than that.

Not like I was every required to take a vow Christ is only way to salvation. More like I had to be polite and not point out...


I am the Way.

i know ur trolling, but i'm betting the christfags who say "your life is empty without god" use religion as a substitute for a sex life, otherwise their lives would be empty.

actually studies show Christians have better sex lives. there is no greater pleasure than having sex in the bounds of holy matrimony, freed from the fear of sin, damnation and depravity

Guess that's why fundamentalists have such high divorce and teen pregnancy rates.

ooo look another atheist who can't comprehend the concept of free choice b/c he believes we are just a random collection of complex chemical processes scurrying through life like mindless automatons.

the miracle isn't that only ten percent of the population rejects god, it's that anyone does with that outlook
