What’s it all about ? It’s about Atheism .It’s about the growing numbers of godless in society. Its about ” the more people,the louder the voice ” .Atheism is the view that there is no evidence that a god exists .Pure & simple.
I don’t really want to debate,but I do want to give people the alternative view (Hence the Tweeting of http://www.godisimaginary.com http://www.thegodmurders.com & http://www.EvilBible.com & http://www.Jesusneverexisted.com http://www.Atheistmemebase.com http://www.Ironchariots.org http://www.humanism.org.uk http://www.FreeAtheism.org etc ) ,then its up to them to have a moment of realisation that the AbrahamicReligion that they have “Faith” in is a con.
If a Theist could provide testable evidence that their specific deity exists or a Logical and reasoned argument for a god, that was watertight,then there would be a change of mind in me. This has not been done.It is the person with the extraordinary claim that has to provide the extraordinary evidence,not the person denying it.
I see Atheism as a transitional stage or word.
“Atheism is only the Gateway to Reality ”
I,like others, use the word loosely to self describe a position of Godlessness, liberal viewpoint and pro-science.Anything else would be just an add-on.From a more thoughtful view, I would say I am a Secular Humanist.
I am Anti-god,Pro choice,Anti-racist,Anti-sexist,anti-ageist,Anti-Animal abuse,Anti-Female & male genital mutilation (Only medical reasons would override this),for A new policy on all drugs,Equal pay for women,free healthcare & education ,Worldwide Human rights ,Federal Democracy ,liberal progressive ,pro-gay/Lesbian,Bisexual & Transgender ,pro-science,Pacifist-Humans should always try for non-violence in World affairs,republican – in the sense that I want to live in a republic ,Ecological minded ,Cosmopolitan ,for the vision of One World,One Race and a follower of Transhumanism.I believe that we should have more space stations,a moon base ,asteroid mining and a permanent colony on Mars,we should also,somehow, create a base on Venus by 2100 CE and how would we pay for it ….I would want a Secular , peaceful World with no wars and less violence…
I do think that many of the things visualised by Carl Sagan & Gene Roddenberry should come to pass.
The philosophy of a stripped down,non reincarnation, non “spiritual” guided Buddhism is what I would go for as a “religion” in a very quiet lightly scented room or garden.
On @athe1stp0wer I don’t debate (or try not to get sucked into one) ,cos for 1 -Twitter doesn’t give enough characters (140) & 2- generally ,you can’t get thru’ to the person who believes in Jesus/Allah no matter if you cover a subject to its tiniest detail …its got to be their choice to change ,not you bashing them out of belief…..all you can do is give the links to websites that have helped you or info pics – ranging from the serious,well argued to the ones that ridicule religion ( a ridiculous notion should always be shown up as what it is …& no mercy given )
