Religion is God based and spirituality is soul based.. a soul comes from God …so is their goal to lead people away from God by answering Q’s in here.

I try to avoid this place, but people add me as contacts, Christians send me emails telling me I’m going to hell, they piss me off & I am lured back in.
I get Christians knocking on my door, with good news, it’s not good or new.
Christians in the street handing me offensive pamphlets.
Graffiti, they have painted "God" & "Jesus" on the cliffs & rocks on the pristine beach where I take my photos, ooh it is just so sad & bad, disappointing, vandals for God.
I saw them after they did it, they were giving each other high fives, I said to a woman "did you do that" she said yeah cool hey, I stood there with my mouth open in disbelieve, I was lost for words.
So she said "high five" I gave her high five & she said "praise the lord" then walked away.
I felt like crying.
My goal is not to lead you away from God, I like you, if believing in God is part of who you are then so be it, Australia is multicultural, I have friends with a lot of different beliefs, it really doesn’t come up, people are people.
There are lots of fun, clever , beautiful people in this category, from all walks of life, it is the people I like.
Love ya 🙂
I’m bored.
Besides, it’s a place for the discussion of religion and spirituality, not a place of discussion for the religious and spiritual.
Because people ask questions to and about atheists on here, like you just did.
It’s funny, because you seem to be asking theists why atheists are here (since you clearly don’t want atheists to be here). Why would a theist know?
Because the idiocy of people claiming that the Earth is only 6000 years old or that the Moon and tides just popped into existence overnight draws us in like moths to a flame.
To drive us nuts
It’s an interesting topic, why’s that so difficult to comprehend?
"spirituality is soul based"… Nope.
"Spirituality can refer to an ultimate or immaterial reality; an inner path enabling a person to discover the essence of their being or the deepest values and meanings by which people live."
I’ve found that I know way more about many aspects of religion than the teenage fundies here do.
I spent years studying various religions before arriving at atheism. That knowledge didn’t just disappear when I decided that none of it was true.
It’s an open forum. ‘christians’ make assertions. I ask for evidence.
They never provide evidence, just lies.
Other people see that and then decide how they feel about lying ‘christians’.
some are agnostic. you have no proof that a soul comes from god…or just your specific god.
Because in trying to convince us they are actually trying to convince themselves.
Because it’s fun. And actually, one can be atheists and have an interest in religion and spirituality. I don’t have to be a geologist to learn about the earth.
Because it’s an open forum dummy, if you don’t like atheists being here then go and stick to the comfort zone of bible study.
R&S does not just mean Christianity. There are many religions that don’t have a god and there are many "spiritual" philosophies that atheists include themselves as a part of.
Stop being such a centrist and open your mind.
I guess to try and prove scientifically that God is not real. I have faith in God and have seen miracles in my life that no one could ever explain. God works in a supernatural way. Aheists just don’t understand.
Actually, religion is based off of wanting to hold a power base. And the word god is not spelled with a capital G. The name of the god you are looking for is YHWH.
I’m not exactly an atheist, but I’m not a believer…I’m undecided. I totally agree if your referring to offensive or defaming answers, but I think most non-christians are just here to observe how you christians think and maybe even be proven wrong.
Not all religion is god-based and it’s fun proving people wrong and exposing their religion’s various flaws.
Ooooo… my favourite question of all time…
This gets asked so often I prepared a list…
1. *drink*
2. Cos we can.
3. For teh LuLz.
4. A-theism is NOT a religion but it IS a valid religious position.
5. Who else would answer all the questions aimed at atheists?
6. Coming here, always makes me feel smarter-saner than I really am.
7. Kid, if people like you didn’t go to such extraordinary lengths to try to convince people like me that all that invisible sky critter stuff wasn’t any more than primitive superstition, people like you would probably never hear from people like me.
8. AND, cheap points are nothing to scoff at, huh?
9. The cats banned us from their section… cos we aren’t cats(get it?).
10. I’m thinking… hang on a mo’.
11. I find religion totally fascinating…
12. I find the followers even more so.
13. AND their leaders… well no one does boolshit quite like Benny and the gang.
14. Religion permeates all of our lives whether we like it or not.
15. Oh, and how about ‘know thy enemy’?

They really know the truth that God exists they are just trying to convince themselves He doesn’t by convincing you.
I think that athiests desire to answer questions in religion and spirituality because just like catholics, christians, muslims etc they all need to discredit other beliefs and emphasis on their own beliefs, it gives a person a sense of power and acheivement when they opinionate on topics and discussions. Everyone in one way or another is guilty of this, we all do it…………..
You notice the number of Atheists here right?
Now take a little notice of how many christian teenagers are here every day asking questions their parents forbid them to ask. Atheists happily give those christian teens the honest answers they seek. Seeds of doubt are easily planted.
I do not care about you at all if you are past the age of 21…
Reap what ye have sown…go after my kids trying to shove jesus down their throats in public or by constantly trying to get christianity taught in the 1st grade to wee little children and you might just give Atheists some ideas.
Make no mistake about it christians….Atheists are here for your children.
why do you such a problem with someone who doesnt beleive in god? why would it matter to u or ur god? as a christian you beleive that god is something that u can only reach by first worshipping jesus, so your religion is about some dead guy telling what god wants not about god. they answer your retarded questions because you are retARDED ….read Isaiah 14:12 then read Revelation 22:16 and ask yourself what if jesus is satan.
Maybe some will be converted by being here.
An even better way of converting atheists is by praying the rosary regularly for their conversion.
The rosary is God’s preferred means for converting people.

maybe theyre more interested in god than they think they are
NOTE: THE WORDS G-D USES IN THIS CHAPTER 45: VERSE 21 LET THEM TAKE COUNSEL TOGETHER: I would think a atheists is welcome, G-D did not say leave him out or you .
look, listen, http://thechildrenoftherainbow.blogspot.com/
Isaiah 45:21 Tell ye , and bring them NEAR; YEA, let them take counsel together: who hath declared this form ancient time? who hath told it form that time? have I THE LORD? and there is no G-D else beside Me; a just G-D and a Savior; there is NONE BESIDE ME.
Isaiah 41:21 " Present your case," says the LORD. "Set forth your arguments," says Jacob’s King.
Yes the soul comes form G-D but nevertheless it returns to G-D and " if" you have but one breath you return to dust. Dust to dust, ashes to ashes .
Ecclesiastes 3:18 I said in mine heart concerning the estate of the sons of men, that G-D might manifest them, and that they might SEE that they themselves are BEAST. 19 For that which befalleth the sons of men befalleth beasts; even one thing befalleth them: as the one dieth, so dieth the other; yea, they have ALL ONE BREATH; so that man hath no preeminence above a beast : for all is vanity.
Only the children that seek G-D face to face and let G-D be their TEACHER in the HOUSE OF G-D that G-D MADE WITH HIS HANDS. and read form the BOOK OF THE LORD, and make a VOW to G-D for G-D gave us HIS VOW and does keep it: NIGHT AND DAY as G-D holy children keep it DAY AND NIGHT. on the REVERSE SIDE. We have SET G-D AS A SEAL UPON OUR HEARTS—G-D WITH US.
Jeremiah 32:33 And they have turned unto Me the BACK , and not the face: though I taught them, rising up early and TEACHING them, yet they have NOT hearkened to RECEIVE —instruction.
Proverbs 1:7,8 read instruction of the Father is in Ecc.12:12,13 mankind did not HEAR, and wrote mankinds many books. and did not hear the keeping of the Covenant of day & night Jer.33:25-26 & Deut.29:14-15 and they do not KNOW that G-D DOES KEEP IT; Isaiah 27:3 night & day.
the law of their Mother is again turning to G-D alone face to face, with out rituals and customs read Jeremiah 10:1 to 18 G-D hates them read verse 14 of Jeremiah 10. See the hurt you do read Jer.10:19.
If you care and Stop deceiving your self and the biggest lie you tell is you know G-D and go in the house of G-D Jeremiah 32:34 But they set their abominations in the house , which is called by MY NAME TO DEFILE IT.
The house you did not enter is the DWELLING PALACE OF G-D Spirit that remains on earth to gather us. look at the end words of Isaiah 34:16. and Ps.90:1 Ps.91:1 Ps.51:6 read in full 51.
The work of G-D’S hand is us, we are the TABERNACLE OF G-D on earth, the TENT read Jeremiah 10:20. We are the stones the builders rejected read Psalm 118:22-23-24 and The Spirit of G-D is making us ready to be brought forth like Abraham Gen.24:7 Isaac Gen.27:27 Jacob Gen.28:20-21 and David G-D’S servant Psalm 18:20-21.
Do your homework do not be deceived or accept the lie
look again http://thechildrenoftherainbow.blogspot.com/
Haughtiness. "9 But he [Jesus] spoke this illustration also to some who trusted in themselves that they were righteous and who considered the rest as nothing: 10 “Two men went up into the temple to pray, the one a Pharisee and the other a tax collector. 11 The Pharisee stood and began to pray these things to himself, ‘O God, I thank you I am not as the rest of men, extortioners, unrighteous, adulterers, or even as this tax collector. 12 I fast twice a week, I give the tenth of all things I acquire.’ 13 But the tax collector standing at a distance was not willing even to raise his eyes heavenward, but kept beating his breast, saying, ‘O God, be gracious to me a sinner.’ 14 I tell YOU, This man went down to his home proved more righteous than that man; because everyone that exalts himself will be humiliated, but he that humbles himself will be exalted.” (Luke 18:9-14)
What is haughtiness? In addition to feeling superior, a haughty person looks down on others, those whom he or she views as inferior. Most atheists do or want to feel superior to others. They believe that by their deciding there is no god or God, they are more intellectually superior than all others.
More people are going this route than ever before. Why? 2 Timothy 3:1-5 includes this haughtiness as part of the conditions of today. "But know this, that in the last days critical times hard to deal with will be here. 2 For men will be lovers of themselves, lovers of money, self-assuming, haughty, blasphemers, disobedient to parents, unthankful, disloyal, 3 having no natural affection, not open to any agreement, slanderers, without self-control, fierce, without love of goodness, 4 betrayers, headstrong, puffed up [with pride], lovers of pleasures rather than lovers of God, 5 having a form of godly devotion but proving false to its power; and from these turn away."
They have too much pride in themselves. The real problem with this is discussed at 1 Timothy 6:3-5. Here concerning bad teachings within the faith, but applicable to atheists as well. ". 3 If any man teaches other doctrine and does not assent to healthful words, those of our Lord Jesus Christ, nor to the teaching that accords with godly devotion, 4 he is puffed up [with pride], not understanding anything, but being mentally diseased over questionings and debates about words. From these things spring envy, strife, abusive speeches, wicked suspicions, 5 violent disputes about trifles on the part of men corrupted in mind and despoiled of the truth, thinking that godly devotion is a means of gain. "
So "mentally diseased" does seem apt. They wish to show off.
It doesn’t make much sense…..!!
Everyone thinks that their way is best. Believing that ,they want to push their beliefs on others.Believe in what you want,ignore the others. The truth will be known to all on judgment day.
