  1. Pure gospel 
     
  2. That's a whole new perspective from mine... But it is totally on point! You have changed my view :shock:
     
  3. Thou shalt provide SS or thy statement is BS
     
  4. It just seems too logical to ignore. It seems like it's a really asshole thing to live by but come on. I expect people to treat me how I treat them, so I treat them the way they treat me lol. I always try to be polite. Sure I shun belief in an exterior divine being, but that's their problem not mine xD
     
  5. @21robber's response
    Death after life is obvious and an inevitability, yes.
    But it's pure speculation/assumption that a troll will decimate one's opinion because it's 'religious'.
    Direct your attention to that satanist guy.
    No one dissed him.
    Point proven.
     
  6. Rules to live by and think of:

    Treat others how they treat you.

    Coming first isn't everything but it's hl of a lot better than coming second.

    Followers are weak, you want to be a subordinate your entire life?

    Be who you are, you're being judged either way.

    It's your life, your rules.

    Don't be stupid. Know the facts before you try to prove how right you are.

    Just my personal list of what I believe in and ponder on, no offence meant to anyone.
     
  7. Satanism is a philosophy, not a religion. I don't worship some deity.
     
  8. I am talking about him, and his arguments are logical in their own way.
     

  9. Yeah uhh hi, I'd like a large popcorn, a Medium soda, and a side of Freedom.
     
  10. Chibby, you're nitpicky :/

    Robber, I don't even. I merely want to hear that guys' opinion instead of him teasing, I CAN'T IT'LL SPARK A RELIGIOUS DEBATE.
     
  11. Thou shall not covet LB

    Thou shall not covet promo bling

    Thou shall not covet B2B HTE

    Thou shall not covet Tim's midgets
     
  12. You think I'm nit picky? You should go talk to a lawyer, that fucker will find the slightest mistake in a contract and completely wreck someone in court.
     
  13. Like I said a week ago. Morality is definitely an interesting topic. I opened this thread hoping to see the argument pointed out as to why the Atheist will hold morals taken from Christianity yet deny the existence of God. How can you ignore someone yet live by their standards? If a Atheists lived by their own absurd Atheistic Theory, they'd live as barbarians. This means killing, raping, maiming whenever they pleased because there are no morals. To recognize morals is to recognize a higher power. So how can this be?
     
  14. Question, if I may: who exactly are we talking about? For it seems that you think I am teasing whilst I am merely voicing my own opinions. If I do "tease" a person I am sorry to say it is not what It appears to be, I am merely one who loves debate. Sorry for the inconvenience if any.
     
  15. I didn't want to say all that/like that in OP, but, that's my question exactly.
     
  16. Robber, I think you've gotten confused.
    You're aiding the guy who wants to hide his opinion after teasing it because his opinion might spark debate.

    I'm trying to get him to reveal it.

    The show must go on.
     
  17. If thou feels that thy morals are being nitpiked, thou shall unload both bars unto them
     
  18. Morals can't be taken from anything. They are ideas that appeal to you, they aren't owned by any entity.

    Recognizing that morals exist doesn't mean there is such thing as your god.

    Atheists have morals, I am without religion and I hold strong to my opinions.

    Are you trying to spark a religious debate? Refer to page one where someone made it quite clear that such thing would be pointless.

    Christianity isn't the only religion.
     
  19. Also this guy, you know from a few pages back...
    You're defending this guy.
