    Is Atheism a religion?

    No, it's not me, it's the voices........somebody make them stop! Sorry, old habit, yes I was doing a spot of fishing. It is possible, without due care and attention, for an Atheist to become as anal retentive and dogmatic as a born again jesus-freak. Socrates may have had some deep thoughts that...

    Is Atheism a religion?

    OK, OK, maybe this isn't the Forum for discussing the esoteric values of nasal passages and yes, I heartily agree with nearly every one; analysis is the life blood of the free thinker and it is vital that we question everything but by the Holy underpants of Joseph, can't we just have a laugh...

    Is Atheism a religion?

    It seems my question brought down some serious heavy s**t, when all I was trying to say was instead of analysing Life, why not just live it? and just to avoid any confusion, I am not a God-botherer, I'm Irish and I know how religion can destroy a country. Religion is the Cancer of the Soul.

    When we remove the need to believe in a supreme being, are we in danger of surplanting that belief? Continous quotes from ancient and modern philosphers supporting our argument against the existence of a God could easily develop into a structured text complete with 'high priests' and disciples...

    Why I believe in a God and an Afterlife

    There seems to be some confusion in your statement; firstly, you seem to have configured hope as belief i.e. you probably fervently hope there is an afterlife but I will wager that no matter how devout you are as a believer, there will be a microscopic glimmer of doubt hidden within you, which...

    William Craig on the absurdity of life without God

    I have just wasted ten minutes of my life watching a pompous manic depressive telling me that my whole existence is meaningless and without the control of a 'supreme being' I am but as dust blowing through the cosmos. Absolute piffle. The meaning of Life is irrelevant, if we knew the answer...

    Closeted Theists (exposing them to start the healing)

    Unfortunately a person who 'gets religion' is similar to burning a CD; once you close off the session you can't get back in to edit the files. If it was possible for a believer to produce irrefutable proof of the existence of a 'supreme being' a considerable percentage of logical thinking...
