My Unpopular Opinion

Oh, ya. Hair is gross. Just cut it off. Long hair is nasty, not pretty.

Ok, well I have very long crazy, curly hair but I do LOVE LOVE LOVE People's Court. Am i redeemed???!:blushing:

Haha! Mine is 4 feet long :P I love court shows and cop shows!

I really dislike children. Their voices are like nails on a blackboard to me. I don't like how they are always running, screeching, snotting, and getting filthy.

I think too many people ruin their lives by having kids that they should have known better than to have. I find it hard to feel sorry for them though, because these are the people who like to look down on me and tell me I lead an empty life because I don't want kids. They turn their wrath to me because it's kind of a social taboo to dislike the children you've already had and it might feel icky to say, "Gee, why didn't I think this through?"

Soooooo I'm just taking a wild guess here that you wouldn't be interested in helping me out in children's ministry @ my church? LOL about 15-20 kids from ages 4 til 5th grade!! All wanting a snack, yelling, running around, screaming......no? U sure? :bigsmile:

I'm an atheist. :laugh:

Yeah I know but seriously, I need help on Sundays!!! LOL c'mon our snacks are pretty good. You LOVE kids right?:bigsmile:

I'm a socialist libertarian living in the deep South. I can't throw a rock without pissing in someone's cornflakes. If I have a political opinion, most likely no one else around here will agree with me.

With kids, most of the time it's the parent's fault. You can blame teacher's, the school system, genetics, Satan, Santa Clause, the grandparents, or fate... but it's the parent's fault.

I think fudge is over rated. gah.

I'm for the death penalty and abortion. I guess I'm pro-death.

I hate cell phones. I wish they had never been invented. And if you keep looking down at your phone while you're "talking" to me, I will feel no regret about sucker punching you in the left eyeball.

I hate Friends, Seinfeild, and How I Met Your Mother. Sue me.

I have too many Christian friends on Facebook. I have no idea how they prayed before they could share it with everyone they've known since 7th grade.

My atheist friends annoy me just as much as my Christian friends. I mean really, don't complain about proselytizing when your entire world revolves around talking people out of something they find comforting.

I shun any electronic with an i in front of it out of hand.

I like hippy chicks but I wish they'd shave their pits.

I don't like cats. I don't want to watch them on youtube. I don't want to hear about your 20 beautiful baby cats and all the cute things they did over the weekend. I really think you need to get laid.

Why are you unhappy? Cause you allow yourself to be. Suck it up.

Gay men cut hair better than straight ladies. And don't seem to have the urge to turn your head into a poodle like the latter.

Some babies are ugly. I'm sorry.

Marry me?

People who smoke anything should be required to do community service once a year, spending a day picking up cigarette butts.

What if you smoke weed out of a bong but loathe cigs?

That doesn't make you any smarter.

Well, you totally sound super smart so I see why people should listen to you, all knowing being (Possibly a wizard)

The Koran and most other "holy books" also instruct their followers to go out an proselytize. That isn't unique to the Bible. I respect others' right to believe in and preach about what they want. Likewise, you should respect my right to not believe in god(s). It doesn't take faith to hold no belief. I don't believe in unicorns, faeries, or elves either. Does that take faith? No. Atheists aren't forcing you not to believe in gods. There's a reason, however, why atheists and other non-believers (theological noncognivitists, agnostics, ignosticts, etc.) engage with believers. Most of the atheists I know know more about religion and theology than most believers. We've studied and through logic and reason have come to the conclusion that there is no credible evidence for belief in gods. We also are acutely aware of the harm that organized religion and faith have caused in the world. Other posters have detailed those harms (Inquisition, Pogroms, anti-gay laws, wars, discrimination, etc.) on this thread so I don't need to provide the specifics. Ultimately, everyone has to decide for themselves what they believe or don't believe. I just think it's important that people are informed. I sent my kids to parochial schools but I also told them that when they were old enough they were free to make their own decisions about god. My son turned 19 last week. He is a self-professed atheist. My daughter is 14 and she is a believer, like my wife, but I don't worry because she has an open mind and questions everything.


Cheers!

Quoted from part 1

Death tolls

Pol Pot >2 million
Hitler > 6 million
Stalin at least 20 million (some sources say 50 million)
None of these men believed in God

Not an argument for the presence of God, but irritates me when people blame all major genocides etc on religion.

Not meaning to carry on this discussion about religion, but just to clarify a mistake in fact - I'm pretty sure Hitler was a Christian :ohwell:

Though he wasn't massacring Jews in the name of God, so I guess that's something.

hahahaha LOL...when will we get past this stupid idea of ppl who "call" themselves something- meaning they really are that...thats how we got to racism- judging one person just because of the color of their skin- then judging all ppl by the standards you gave to one person (you know like when 1 person makes a "bad name" for a whole group of ppl)

and since killing ppl is against the bible i think we can all clearly say that hitler was not a real christian...lol
