These gods are dangerous and must battle them where you find them

I didn't need religion to be a moral person but had to battle it over tolerance and acceptance and freedom. I believe atheists just don't believe in the gods being sold them. Most lead to ignorance and prejudice in a unified form of self justification and condescending elitism with a church on every corner screaming we want your children. That is your community of like minded people...maybe tolerant and helpful or intolerant, judgmental and condemning because they are delusional believing in supernatural myths and bronze age morality. It's still a fantasy no matter how many like minded people get to together to celebrate it ( and get sued twice and losing like Republic, MO. for pushing it off on non believers)

Indoctrination to religion before a child develops critical thinking skills is child molesting fear

It's not the religion it is those who insist and indoctrinate people to it to the point of it becomes socially unacceptable not to have one and involve it in all that is done.
"When the last King is strangled with the entrails of the last priest there will be peace and freedom&quot may have messed that quote up but you get the point)

Religion: being told by others what you are, where you come from and where you will go and what you must do to get there by people who have never been and are only telling you what they were told by someone else.

Why should God "do" anything or "need" anything...He's God. He's complete and did not forget to do anything. 2 fish swimming in the ocean when another fish swims up and says "Ok...where's all this water you guys keep telling me about...how it both contains and sustains us huh...huh...I don't see anything...where is it. See, it doesn't exist does it? It certainly doesn't do anything does it. Idiots"-Jbacon@2013

After all, if you were God couldn't you come up with a better plan than this

Never heard of a God I could believe in but I only use 10% of my brain...maybe if I used 100% I wouldn't be so "God-tarded" . I might discover that all that is is God cause I wouldn't need a God to do anything that wasn't already done...if I could use 100% of my brain that is...maybe in 90 more centuries huh.-Jbacon@2013.

Watched my nephew from birth and knew he was gay

My brother's family was 2 boys and 1 girl and as they grew the youngest boy displayed strong feminine behavior from birth. Would have worn dresses to school if it were allowed. Rest of family not gay.
Heard this once but it involves reincarnation. The reason for existence is "desire" and since sex is the strongest desire, souls are attracted to couples making love and oft times female souls get caught in male fetuses and vice versa when they are pulled into the "valley of forgetfulness" or the womb. Who knows...certainly not those of us using only 10% of our brains better known as "God-tarded", when if we could access the full 100% we'd have all the answers (but would we have any questions?) Anyway, I observed first hand that some people are born gay...and it can be seen long before their sexual nature develops. It's not a choice to be born gay...but it is a choice to have sex of any kind.

Labeled as "Anti-Science Fiction"

Christian mythology is on the same level as Greek Mythology when it undergoes scrutiny. Maybe the Jewish tribes people of the Bronze age regarded it as historic in some manner but talking snakes, burning bushes and parting seas is no different than tales in Greek and Eygptian mythology. j People of the Bronze age and before regarded their mythological Gods with just as much devotion as "Christians" do today.

I love that scene in the movie "Troy" where king Priam is praying to the God Apollo all night so intently before the great battle was to commence. It shows how deeply [people prayed to their Gods just as is done today. People in America have been indoctrinated from birth to believe in the Christian myth long before they developed critical thinking skills. A simple question to ask is ..."if you were God couldn't you come up with a better plan than the ones your religions are telling you?". What kind of a God could it be who is so needy and emotional except one created by needy and emotional men.
