Holocaust denial.

There is so much evidence: physical, psychological, photographic, etc.. how could anyone honestly believe that it didn't happen? I'm not sure if it's my paranoia or not when I hear completely off-the-wall theories and think to myself, "Does the person saying this actually believe it or are they just fucking with me/us?"
This. Seriously, who would deny something that has clear evidence?

the idea of an invisible man in the clouds that can see everything and everyone at all times, that created all that is. thats pretty batshit bonkers to me! ^_^
Do you have to be so insulting about it?
I'm sure people's various gods will instill within them the strength to persevere through such horrific persecution.

For the whole "lol religion one", disprove that a god (not in the christian sense, just a creator) exists, then you can laugh at it, until that point, you're in the "smug c*nt" category
Burden of proof lies with the person making the claim. If I told you I could fly and then in response to you asking to prove it, I told you to disprove it, I'd hope that you'd call me an idiot.

You're probably too into your "insufferable atheist" stage of atheism to notice BUT, the long, drawn-out analogy you are using to express that you are talking about god has been used to death. Find a new gimmick.
Okay, how about an invisible skywizard that is his own son, that sacrificed himself, to himself, to prevent that all the people he made, didn't automatically go straight to hell, without collecting their 200$, even if passing Start.
Why do you feel the need to mock religion so viciously? Your an asshole, and I am calling you out on it. You give atheists a bad name. Please stop.
I'm sorry, I don't normally mock religion, but you did ask for a "new gimmick". I will stop.
[sub](I laughed.)[/sub]

People need to learn that there is a difference between respecting other people's right to believe what they want, and respecting other people's beliefs. The former is important, the latter, not so much.
You said religion again...are you just trying to get attention now? Also, no, no I'm not buying it, that's just a throwaway excuse for you to be an insulting jerk.
No, I said religion once. I wasn't aware there are rules against having the same answers as other people. Religion doesn't get a pass just because its religion; if we're to take the piss out of 2012-ers, the Y2K people, astrologists, etc, etc, then religion can get it in the neck too.
...yeah except the 2012ers are completely crazy, even those who are religious think so, and those who believe in religion make up 90% of the planet's population...are you saying that you know better than most of the world?

Lots of people believing it doesn't lend it credence by default; what a stupid statement.

"yeah except the 2012ers are completely crazy"

They make wild assumptions based on non-evidence, varying levels of paranoia and a longing for some sort of purpose in life. Sound familiar?

http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/HollywoodAtheist

Here I thought that stereotype only existed in fiction but time and time again people like you prove me wrong, you must be the atheist that gives other atheists a bad name. Here's an little something to mull over, religion is recognized by most of the world governments as legitimate organizations. there's a difference between the Catholic Church and the Church of Scientology, also religion is about more than believing in a god, its about being a better person, some of the ten commandments a central part of catholic life

Thou shall honor thy mother and father
Thou shall not kill
Thou shall not steal
Thou shall not covet thy neighbor's wife
And the golden rule
Treat others the way that you would want to be treated.

Religion isn't something that can be thrown under the same blanket, Muslims aren't like Jews and Jews aren't like Christians and even Christians can be categorized as the same thing, there's too many sub cultures that fall under it, even among Catholics and Baptists, everyone takes it to a different level. Then again considering that stereotype that you fall under, you probably think that all religious people mindless worship a deity without question, throw money to the church and do what they're told to avoid some sort of punishment in the after life, I'm so offended by this that I don't even know where to begin, we are much more complex than "the world is going to end because the Mayans stopped writing their calendar."

And yet, no theist has a good response to it...

OT: I agree with everyone who says God. It really is quite silly in my mind. Also, those "Birther" fellas.

Here's an idea, I don't go around shoving down my belief down your throat, could you kindly return the favor and not shove your lack of belief down my throat and stop trying to paint me as a mindless idiot who has fallen to crowd mentality?

You criticised someone for commenting on (and mocking) the Man In the Sky belief, I thought it was pretty evident that we were talking about that side of things.

"you probably think that all religious people mindless worship a deity without question"

There's a distinction between religious people and religion itself. The theistic side of religion is stupid. The other shit that you've brought up - which we weren't talking about - is irrelevant to what we are talking (and before you get to it: no, of course I don't think its a bad thing that the Bible tells people not to kill others). Yes, I would (heavily) fault someone for being religious for the theistic side. That doesn't mean I'm faulting them entirely.

For example, yy Politics teacher is religious. Outside of that, she's pretty funny, we all get along with her, she's got fairly moderate political views (a little too conservative for my taste). She's also some denomination of Christianity, and whenever religion gets brought up she sounds like a completely different person, talking about the rebirth of Christ and knowing that god is watching over her (and turning a blind-eye to the issue of politics needing to remain secular). I would fault her for that, that doesn't mean I consider her a drooling idiot who can't think for herself.

"we are much more complex than "the world is going to end because the Mayans stopped writing their calendar.""

Missing the point. The theistic side of religion (AGAIN: no, I don't care about the morals whichever holy text you read contains, that is not relevant to this discussion) and the end-of-the-world prophesising come from much the same place. A misunderstanding of what counts as evidence (or simply blind faith), unhealthy amounts of attention devoted to archaic texts, a need for some sort of purpose in life, a healthy dose of superstition and/or paranoia.

And it was nice of you to try and ignore your complete and utter logical fallacy by trying to attach a bloody character trope to me (I don't fit any of those: I know enough about the major religions, neither of my parents gave any indication of them being atheists until I asked, so when I was about 12). Be careful the straws don't snap whilst you're clutching them.

Pretty much every single conspiracy theories that centeres around 9/11, The Illuminati's, the holocaust denials. For those who believe these theories: you god damn idiots really need to get laid.
I think it would be better if they didn't get laid, that way they won't spread their stupidity to the next generation.

OT: Anything Jim Corr says, he may be right about some things, but the evidence he comes up never sensibly points to anything he concludes from it.
He lived less than a mile away from me for a while, hopefully his insanity hasn't washed off on me.
Also, another thing that makes just die laughing is that they always say that they are telling THE TRUTH ! I mean, when you say THE TRUTH it's something that can't be debated but the thing is that their theories are just that: theories. Even then, i think i would call them fantasies and not theories or speculations but they all just fucking bang on the fact that IT'S THE TRUTH. I AM EXPOSING THE TRUTH BLA BLA BLA. Also, if you DARE to say the opposite, they just all tank on you (or go with the simple "obvious TROLL IS OBVIOUS), they adjust their imaginary tie and assault you with their pseudo-intellectual comments or insults saying things like: " Huh ! Yeah right, go back to your delusionnal world filled with lies and go back watching Fox News you fucking tool".

But i gotta say, with all the "theories" about 9/11 there's a lot of good material to make a good conspiracy movie :).

No offense but Theists need to get something better then "You can't disprove it" as well.

OT: Pretty much everything that people say without even a tiny bit of proof. Whether it be 2012 or religion it just gets people worked up for no reason. Seriously next time something like the end of the world doesn't happen we all should get to slap whoever decided it would.
It's no offense to me because despite your assumption that I'm a theist, I'm actually not. When theists say "You can't disprove it" it's not to mock the belief's of others, it's just a flimsy argument that doesn't seek to offend anyone; when atheists on the other hand use the immature "invisible etc etc" analogy it just makes atheists look like 13 year olds on XBL.
And calling him an insufferable atheist doesn't make you look like a 13 year old on xbox?
Nope. Was that not obvious?

Craziest theory I've heard came from a guy I worked with who stopped taking his meds, went crazy and was fired. The theory was that The United states government assassinated Michael Jackson as a threat to the Chinese government to prove how far they were willing to go to protect their interests.
LOL im sorry but I laughed so hard at this anyways the most ridiculous theory i've heard was that mole people run the United States Government.

A lot of them have already been mentioned but here's one that hasn't been brought up yet..

Vaccines cause autism in children

Thousands of people still believe this and refuse to have their kids vaccinated despite the fact that the research was discredited and the doctor involved was deemed to have been unethical in his research by the medical authorities in the UK.FFS the guy was being paid by lawyers representing parents who believed that vaccines had harmed their kids

The sad thing is that it's the children who are suffering as they are being exposed to potentially dangerous diseases because of the stupidity of their parents
... there are morons who intentionally refuse to vaccinate their children?

Who opted for genocide earlier? I think we've found who will ultimately be the cause.

I came here to say this, but its true.

However, since I need to post something.

The idea that the earth is 6,000 years old and all of history happened within 6,000 years seems crazy. I mean, every war would have to take at least 2 months so that we can be where we are currently.

That the social sciences (and I'm mostly looking at you, Sociology, International Relations and all quantitative schools of History) are actually "scientific".

Cracks me up every time.

There are lot of atheists on these forums... All these comments about religion and not a single "But God is real!" comment. Love it. We need to get rid of all religions of the world. I want my children to grow up in a world that's not stupid.
Wow condescending much? You're as bad as the religious people who say atheists are immoral and evil.

so living in a world full of bigots is ok? you know, when you act like that, you make atheist look MORE blind than most religious people.

Seriously, what is wrong with you people? For being on the same site that praises it self for being logical and sensible you people sure are allowing illogical people spewing straight up hate speech to run amok.


But on another note the theory that the jews run the world is stupid. Why does everyone hate jews?
I'm not sure that there is anything about my comment that promotes bigotry, immoral, or condescending. Is it really wrong for a parent to want for their child a world where when I go out into the street, there isn't a religious fanatic telling my children that they're going to go to hell? Is it wrong for me to want a world where, when my child goes to school, isn't insulted by children of religious people judging and insulting my child because of different beliefs? Because that is EXACTLY what happened when I was young. I AM sensible and logical. The indoctrination of children is a dangerous thing. And yes, I understand that my statement was very generalized and could have been misinterpreted. My poor choice of words, and I apologize. Let me rephrase it: We need to get rid of all religions causing harm to this world. I want my child to grow up in a world that's not stupid and judgmental. And yes, I know this is a late response.

all i can think of now is Scientology's origin, and the reptilianoid conspiracy.
Pretty sure you can't mock Scientology now. They are legit, I think. My Google Chrome spell check doesn't read it wrong.
Oh yes you can. You can mock anything you want.
Well, apparently you can't. At least, not here. [http://www.escapistmagazine.com/forums/jump/18.337758.13663836]

im gonna stop you right there, didnt even read anything else on your post.

Let me explain something, calling people stupid for haveing a different view than your own is bigotry and a little fascist. Calling for the banning of religions is not only a horrific violation of civil rights but is EXTREMELY bigoted. Thats as bad as saying we should ban gays or blacks. And quite frankly, i think the atheist on the internet are more annoying and mean spirited than a nut case over religious guy because there is a hypocrisy that goes with it, and its really bad on this site. If i said we should ban atheist, my ass would be banned from any IP resembling this one.

Personally, i have no real beef with atheist,some good friends of mine are secular, but my god, some of you just make it to where NO one want to be you guys. Logical thinking? yeah right. If you want to be logical, actually be logical and respectful.

And i know im ranting and sounding kind of douchey, but these forums need to straighten up there attitude if anyone want to take them seriously.Cause right now, i rather hang out on /b/ with some rational thought.

also, just to spite your original comment...God is real.
