    The person posting above you is doing the same thing as Theists but calling it "morals and integrity"

      You make a good point. It is wonderful that we are allowed to have different beliefs though, I am not forced to accept yours, you are not forced to accept mine; something that we should be truly grateful for!

        Then you don't know what Theism is. Or you're just pulling more bs out of your ass.
        Either way, what you described is not logic. It's called weakness. You're what I call a fake Christian. A person who knowingly sins but because you "believe" in god, you're good to go.

            I can bet a lot of you self proclaimed full fledged atheists on your deathbed will be praying to something.

                  Am I now?

                  Looks like we're getting a nice portrayal of what Pac was describing. Didn't take too much to smoke some of your true colors out...still confused on why people don't want to be around you?

                  If your argument is that religion tells people what to do and you'd rather do what society tells you what to do, then what is the substantive difference in your position? At least cale is willing to put his cards on the table in a respectable form.

                    You said it not me. At least true (some) Christians aren't believers because of the threat of pain/ suffering like yourself. You're the worst type of Christian beyond those that are violent. But don't feel too bad, you're not alone. There are others out there just like you.

                      Agnostic here. If there is a "god" that judges people I believe it would judge on how you leed your life, not the religeous beliefs you subscribe to. If you need religion to tell you how to be a good person, fine but don't push your beliefs on others. If your beliefs harm others, well fuck you I hope you die horribly.

                      Do to others as you would have them do to you. "Karma."

                        You don't sound different from the christians at all.

                          Cale tries his hardest to resist laying into people such as yourself, don't give me too much credit. Your reasonings are horrendous and hold no value.

                            You really have a problem with basic reading and comprehension. Read my first post again. It has absolutely nothing to do with what anyone else thinks.

                              I won't. Why would I pray to something that doesn't exist? People who think god is real that they are going to heaven and all that bullshit creep me out.

                                People like myself?

                                I don't give you any credit at all, just found it interesting that at least you didn't dovetail your position onto what society tells you to do.

                                That's at least more in line with where I stand...as a buddhist.

                                No, I really don't. You stated that you adhere to morals and integrity, which stem from those around you; external sources of authority just like christians.

                                You make broad assumptions.
                                You leap to errant conclusions based on your misunderstandings.
                                You did this all in the span of a few posts.

                                just like the christians you are trying to describe as weak minded
