Mad_Michael Posted May 31, 2007 Report Posted May 31, 2007 No atheist in foxholes. That is religious propaganda that has no basis in factual reality. The largest spike in 'atheism' occured during and after WW1, notably amongst returning soldiers. According to your propaganda theory, WW1 should have caused one of the largest increases in religious faith ever witnessed by modern humans. It didn't - quite the opposite effect. Yeah well i can pretty much tell ya most everyone that i knew in my military days believed in god. At least those who were ever shot at. But hey, whatever you wanna think is fine by me. Arguments from personal anecdote have no substantive validity. Quote
jefferiah Posted May 31, 2007 Report Posted May 31, 2007 When Church gets out on Sunday do you feel the need to get a good hiding spot with all these poisoned violent people out on the road at once? Is it that bad really? I am sure you have family who goes to Church. Are they commiting violent crimes against you. Really, seriously. Is the general Church going public launching non-stop violent attacks against you. I hide for sure. Wont see me out on the bike Sunday morning. Have you seen the way the churchgoers drive? All those old ladies who dont share the road.....I stay out of the way. You must live in the booneys...most people walk to church (well, except for evangelicals who need to show off the Cads to show how loved by God they are.....) I do live in the booneys!

Drea Posted May 31, 2007 Author Report Posted May 31, 2007 Yeah well i can pretty much tell ya most everyone that i knew in my military days believed in god. At least those who were ever shot at. But hey, whatever you wanna think is fine by me. Of course NO ONE wants to die so we automatically call out to "god" or "whoever" in times of strife or when our lives are in danger. Does not prove anything except that humans fear the finality of death. Quote ...jealous much? Booga Booga! Hee Hee Hee
Figleaf Posted June 1, 2007 Report Posted June 1, 2007 God giving humanity a choice, including bad one's does not make him poison. With or without "free will", if omnipotent God created a poison humanity, then God created poison. Quote
