Spare me. It is impossible to hate some "ism" without hating those who practice it.

How can you "love me"? You don't even know me. And please don't come back and tell me that you love all humaity, that stupid plabreastude cheapens the term "love" into meaninglessness.

Redemption from what? Let me repeat, There is NO God. There is NO Satan. There is NO heaven. There is NO hell. These are all constructs that have absolutely no real meaning. Forget them and go LIVE your life, because when this one is over, you'll have no other.

Convenient huh. God says that God exists because God says so. Round and round the circular logic goes......

That IS the point. Your life is the most precious thing you have (other than the lives of your loved ones, if any). I wouldn't waste it chasing fairy tales were I you.

Actually, you dehumanize yourself with your self egrandizement as Children of God while the rest of humanity, those who do not believe as you do, are damned to a life of eternal misery.

Yeah, yeah, yeah! So forth and so on.

Do you really believe such nonesense or are you just putting us on? Religion has been responsible, through the ages, for more wars, more suffering and rest than any other single cause.

You buttume that the world would have no morals without your God. Well, that's blatantly false. There are many societies on this earth who do not know your God and have managed to form a remarkably similar morality to that of your Bible and your God WITHOUT the "benefit" of either.

No it wouldn't. The Japanese society (for instance) formed a morality without your God and they have much lower crime rates than do most so-called Christian nations. Likewise the Chinese are very moral people and they care not for your God.

There was no worldwide flood. That story was meant, even by the scribes who wrote it, as a parable. Almost all rational, Biblical scholars agree on this point. After all, there's not enough water on this earth to flood the entire earth (which is a closed hydrospheric system, BTW).

Do you know what volumes that speaks of you?

Yes, they were innocent. And a religious sect who believes in the SAME God that you believe in, end them "for God." And you don't think that religion is dangerous and should be outlawed?

That's beside the point and irrelevant to the conversation. Its RELIGIOUS fervor that has the whole middle east in turmoil. People arguing over metaphors for the same non-existent deity.

Then you haven't studied the wars of Reformation, The Wars of Pope Julius, the Crusades, the Santa Armandad, the Inquisitions of Spain and Italy, the needless killings of people like Bruno and the house arrest or liquidate by the Catholic church of anyone who DARED to bring enlightenment into the world. All in the name of a Jew named Jesus and a non-existent God. Don't tell me that religion isn't dangerous.

I doubt seriousl if the Romans end millions of Christians. Before the 3rd or 4th Century, I doubt seriously if there were "millions of Christians" to be end.

Actually, that's not true. I'm not going to go into it here, but Christains were persecuted mostly because they were "different". The Romans were extremely tolerant of other religions and most were fairly casual about their own.

I think you need to take another pbutt at the history books. Somebody's been feeding you more nonesense. Of course, I must admit, you seem to exhibit a voracious and insatiable appebreaste for nonesense, so maybe its inevitable.

As does most logic, it seems.

That's funny. What a dark fairy land you live in, Donald. Except when here in this thread, I don't give you Christians enough thought to even consider harming one of you poor benighted individuals. You've enough baggage to carry around without worrying about the likes of little ol' me.

You self-centered butt! What makes you think that I was talking about ONLY YOUR GOD? I was talking about all gods being worshipped today, because they are all the same to me. I make no differentiation between the absurdity of the Abrahamic God and the absurdity of a Shiva or a Buddah, or any other.

Why? You are the same.

To quote Da Mayor: "The irony meter just 'sploded!"

See, you have just injected more of your circular reason. You have just said that we will not get rid of religion and live in peace without it until "Knowledge of God will cover the earth like the seas". Makes no sense.

I'm afraid that you have grossly mischaracterized me, my friend. I'm not going to harm anyone. You seem not understand the concept of degree. Everything seems to balck or white to you. If somone doesn't believe in religion or the existence of gods, then obviously he wants to destroy all who do. Let me try to explain moderation to you. I dislike Bush. I think he's the worst president this country has had since Carter. Yes, I'd like to see him out of office. But none of those opinions consbreastute enough of an annoyance to any sane human being for them to want to see the man physically harmed in any way. If anyone tried to harm Bush, I would be as appalled as anyone else. Do you understand now that my dislike for Bush, just like my other likes and dislikes are not black or white but are to a degree? Similarily, I don't like religion and I feel disdain for the concept of deities, But I feel only pity for the hapless fools like you who have fallen for this nonesense hook, line and sinker. Not hate, Donald, just pity.

At least I KNOW that. The pity is that your rest will feed the same types of worms and the oblivion that I KNOW awaits me, awaits you as well. You don't know that. You have deluded yourself into believing that there is something after this life and you are wasting this life persuing it. That's why you are to be pitied.

Your rest will serve the worms. Nothing more.

You read like he sounded. That's the only comparison I made.

I work to enlighten others as to the folly of religion, yes. I have had a few people write me and thank me for opening their eyes. Small victories, yes, but everybody that I can turn from drooling religious fanatics to useful, thinking memebers of society, the better.

Will I? Will I so? And how the bloody f*** do you know that?

Idiot! How many times must I tell you. God doesn't exist!
