Drone Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 So do you think they're too embarrassed or just can't be bothered/don't have time for yet another theist preaching? With regards to A.B.Yaffle's claim that atheists preach, I've never heard of an atheist going door to door to tell people that they don't believe in God(s). Haha like this one..

RootsBooster Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 LOL.. Think it's about time theist (theists indenial) admit they don't like talking about god On the contrary, most theists I've met don't like to discuss their God. I've met many who claim to be open for discussion about their faith, then when I ask a simple question they tend to clam up or even go on the defensive/offensive Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj.scuba Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 http://www.theregister.co.uk/2008/10/21/dawkins_athiest_bus/ I thought this campaign was well known amongst religious athiests. It seems you didn't realise how religiously anti-religion Dawkins is! This is the side of atheism I'm not so keen on. Obviously they felt their noses were put out enough by the very sight of a Christian advert, and had to respond in kind. Some atheists seem quite evangelical in the way they wish to spread atheism, they must have picked up some tips from religious preachers. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mj.scuba Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 There is quite a difference in the meanings. I know they sound very similar and to many it must seem like splitting hairs. To put it simply, one means to just not have a belief, thus be indifferent or open minded toward the possibility of God(s) existing. The other means to have a belief that no God(s) can exist. The latter could be seen as a somewhat ignorant and even illogical belief, whereas the former is merely absence of belief on the matter. I don't believe there is a god. I believe there isn't a god. Same thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drone Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 No I don't. So you have no interest at all? When I found god, it made me a better person, I no longer think of theists as I considered them before.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootsBooster Posted August 12, 2012 Share Posted August 12, 2012 I don't believe there is a god. I believe there isn't a god. Same thing. Only in the same way that one person doesn't have a dog and another person doesn't like dogs. Which is not the same at all. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
