You separated works from faith in reference to Christianity. That's a misunderstanding at best and a perversion of Christianity at worse. Correct atheism has nothing to say about morality so you have no legitimate reason to oppose my being the biggest baddest ahole in the neighborhood Right, you can't do a Bible study with me.

People with faulty understanding would think that. You also don't understand christian but you seem to think a perversion of Christianity is Christianity. There is nothing inherently wrong with it this just your special pleading. Not a convincing argument. I do like how you think throwing the word empathy around matters. If it does it's not because of atheism.

Faith alone or sola fide is a perversion of christian scripture. Meaningless. You and every atheist I know is a product of a judeo christian society. Give me an atheistic reason why I should have empathy or even consider it if I am the biggest baddest dude in the neighborhood. Why should I care about you?

It can facilitate and engender selfishness but thats not an inherent trait of money. You get that right? That's like saying because I can smash someone's skull in with a hammer we should get rid of hammers. It's pure silliness.

You may believe in Jesus but its been shown that you just dont listen to him. Well I suppose it's more accurate to say you listen to some things he says but not others.

You dont seem particularly skilled at converting anyone to atheism so it might as well fall to someone else. Picking up on this empathy thing if I was the biggest baddest ahole in the neighborhood and I manipulated people into doing whatever I wanted on what basis would you argue I shouldn't do that? Should I not do that if I am the biggest baddest while in the neighborhood ?

There's a lot wrong in that last paragraph. The others too but that last one is a whopper. How did you come about dividing religions between works and faith? If you don't like being harmed that has absolutely nothing to do with how you treat others. It's funny how every atheist I've met uses this "golden rule" argument yet they are all products of a society rooted in judeo christian values. Beyond that history is replete with examples of human treating other humans in ways they sure as hell wouldn't want to be treated. If empathy is hard wired in us you have a lot of work on in your hands to prove that. Also with regards to empathy can you show how empathy was, is and can be instrumental in the evolution of a species.

Money isn't the problem the love of money is the problem. It's no different than all the other things we love over the people and things we should love. I think this is a nice sentiment but it really misses the point. Indeed. Self interest and selfishness are not the same.

I dont pay attention to heretics. Thats you.

Not the USA. Democrats have too much to lose if they close the border. You know damn well and right though that if the dems thought illegals would vote Republican the border would be shut down tighter than a lobsters ass and thats water proof.

I have no doubt my dog is smarter than he/she/it.

He's probably screw that up

True you're a traitor to America. A low like leftist. A new hate group the LLL

I wish US politicians had the stones that apparently the politicians in Iceland have. Pack your shit and get out! We need more of that here. What are you a cop?

It's a "privilege" I happily surrender. You can shove your privilege

I think you're right. They won't stop unless they are stopped.

You can't exaggerate how stupid leftists are.

I must say I am a bit surprised as I thought there would be a more than a few eternal salvation types here. Guess not.

Truth. Lol leftist wouldn't know truth if it was biting their a$$es

I can't be more concise. Show me where I said a a loss for her is a win. That's simple and straight toward. The crack must getting in the way ho. Some of us aren't free to sit around and just smoke crack all day ho. I'm still trying to be polite but plastic crack hos don't make it easy.

See once again you think something therefore you think it's truth. If I said I had three arms, whether or not I have three arms hasn't nothing to do with whether you believe it or not. You either understand that or you don't.

If only truth was determined by what you believe.

Where did I make that claim? This is why talking to you people is useless. You really to what's in your head and. It wasn't actually being said.

A trained monkey repeating tired old tropes ^^^^^^^

No I don't agree. I am trying to remain polite. IF it's a failure it's because YOU think its a failure. You realize that just because you think something that doesn't automatically make but true, right? Lie if you have to.
