Problems with teens

I don't believe in believing in anything. I don't like being told what to do, especially by people who refuse to accept evidence. I'm not going to try and stop other people though, as that just causes problems.

You have a point, I can't think of any religeon that provides good evidence, some one do tell if you have evidence!

I personally believe that Judeo-Christian religious teachings and texts are a ridiculous waste of time and effort that could be spent repairing our planet.

Are you a hippie?

lol. I was thinking the same thing. This planet will never be "repaired"...

No, I wanna know what needs to be repaired. If it is violence then yes it could use some repairing. If it's global warming go kiss Al Gore's @$$

He's talking about the planet as whole. As in all problems everywhere, making everything perfect, and when you think about it, you can't truly make anything perfect.

Well, if you live in a highly christian populated area, aren't they doing exactly what is against what Jesus taught. He promoted love, understanding, and compassion. Not hate. I'm pretty sure he believed that you can't bestow religion on somebody else though, meaning you can believe what you want out if will. Correct me if I'm wrong on that point though.

On a right or wrong standpoint, believe what you want. Because if they hate you, so be it. I'm Catholic, but I'm not about to spread hate to others that aren't.

People should keep in mind that Jesus was Jewish, too. Assuming that the majority of the people that don't like you are Christian, then if they believe other religions aren't right, then they believe Jews aren't right, which then means they don't believe Jesus was right.

It's there loss if they hate you. Don't be deterred.

Just some brain food I thought of


Also, try to avoid posting religious threads next time. I posted this because you created it anyway, but forum fights have started from threads like these. I already see a potential thread war from OregonTrails little post and the replies to it.

:fp Global warming isn't something you believe or not believe (like god). It's fact.

Again, another opportunity for a thread war. Really guys, stop getting so opinionated. Help the guy, sure, but don't start spreading your beliefs if it can potentially hurt others. You almost seriously offended me with that post.

You must have a very hard time getting by in life then. Who knows what might be lurking around any corner.

Now here's some one who knows what they're talking about.

No one is really answering the question but rather rambling about religeon.
We may aswell make a thread called the Great Debate.

exactly what many of these threads turn out to be. People get opinionated and they start arguing about who's right. Eventually people like the person you quoted will end up fighting even if they said that it doesn't bother him.

@OP: Ignore them. Anybody who persecutes you for not believing in something there is no basis for other than faith are stupid and need some serious de-brainwashing.

I don't think 'faith' itself is stupid at all, but shunning people for not having it is despicable.

I know people have answered it, I even gave an answer, just people are going on about religeon more then the question.
Which I have no problem with, debating is fun

 

[PEZenfuego]

If they found out you're an atheist because you stood up and gave them a speech about how Christianity was stupid, then yeah, they'd probably not like you after that.

I did exactly that in Speech class. Now, I'm a Christian and I did this due to an unlucky draw. I didn't care though and afterward explained individually to every person about the flaws in my debate...

In any case, as long as you don't force your views on others I don't have a problem with you.

 

[mr.onehanded]

They are just jealous that you don't have to go to church, confirmation, or give 10% of your money to the church. Of course I'm kidding. Simply put it's because they are narrow-minded. If they took the time to actually think about it critically, it makes no difference: religion pertains to the afterlife not the present.

[cooldayr]

[sub_zero1983]
