Is Atheism a religion without a church or temple ?

If religious people were saying agnostics or atheists were gaslighting themselves or had a mental disorder and disassociating, you’d point out how mean and rude they were being. You’d say oh, those Christians, they think anyone who doesn’t think as they do are crazy.

But you feel so justified in calling other people’s beliefs a mental disorder. Can you not see that it’s bigotry that you are engaging in?

This whole thread was intended to antagonize atheists. So sit down.

Religious people have al sorts of misconceptions about atheists and dislike/hatred toward atheists, and until recently, it was acceptable to state such things openly. Now atheists are more likely to speak for themselves, and to speak out about their own attitudes about religion. Some religious people don't seem to able to handle it, trying to quiet the nonbelievers.

Those days are over -- at least online.

It sort of reminds me of how men sometimes still treat women, or how white people treat and think about people of other races.

White Christian people might still think they have the same control that they did in the past, but they don't.

You called praying, gaslighting yourself. Then another poster compared prayer to a mental disorder.

People post questions about religion here, and alot of atheists chime in and give their opinions.

But when people ask questions about atheism, it’s antagonistic? It’s really not. You are just offended people are disagreeing with your opinions. You should not be so sensitive- especially after you called prayer “gaslighting.”

Have you looked in the mirror lately?

If that’s a feature not a bug, fine, but when atheists openly call prayer mental illness and emotional abuse- they are being more than prickly. It’s outright bigotry and also belittling, for religious people, abuse victims, and people struggling with mental health issues. You can pretend it’s not, but it is. I don’t see religious people here calling atheists mentally ill, or disparaging their beliefs, whatever their beliefs may be.

Religious people are told they are hateful, disrespectful of others, pedophiles, told they support pedophilia and the abuse of women, children, minorities, etc, just for having religious beliefs. I personally don’t know any religious people who support or do those things.

I don’t think from reading these forums that the atheist people posting here know anything about religion. In fact, what little they know is often completely wrong. And they assume the worst about religion and religious people. No one should come to these forums to learn about religion, as the few kernels of truth are hidden deeply in pages and pages of threads full of inaccurate information and outright slander and misinformation.

As the person upthread claimed Paine was an atheist, with no documentation or proof- atheists post their very often incorrect opinions about every subject.

If a Christian documents a a religious statement with link and source, it’s disparaged as cut and paste.

There is a poster who only copy & pastes from Wikipedia and obscure sites. Ask a question about it, and she just copy & pasted something else, unrelated.

Pretty funny.

And then sometimes people post “research” but then when you point out that they misinterpreted the “research” then they go silent.

Also funny.

Wikipedia is a mainly and accepted source. Everything on wikipedia has footnotes from reputable sources.

The obscure sites have not been found to be incorrect in any way to my knowledge. They aren’t obscure, either; they deal with religious and Biblical knowledge. You can point out misinformation and false information at any time those links are posted but do not; you or others just dismiss it as copy and paste. You or others don’t give an alternate or different interpretation. The information posted is neither obscure or incorrect.

Take each post and refute it, if you feel it’s wrong.

I have, repeatedly. Only to get another irrelevant copy & paste. There is no thought put into it at all.

There’s actual facts put into the copy and paste from actual Biblical scholars, theologians, historians, and academics. You don’t refute anything.

Nobody here has called atheism a mental disorder or claimed atheists lie to themselves Nobody here has called atheists sex abusers or pedophiles.

What about this thread regarding atheists offends you or is rude, hateful, or disrespectful?

Many people have attempted to discuss the copy & paste info. But we never get a meaningful response. Just more, off-topic copy & pastes. Or demands to see our credentials.

If you aren’t capable of rational discussion then why bother? Are you just trolling?

Sounds like the PP was saying that a certain subset of the population is threatened by others gaining a platform.

No, I haven’t seen any substantial refutation of fact. Credentials are important if you want to have your opinion taken seriously. Anyone can opine, but scholars, academics, scientists, historians, etc, are the experts.

You should be ashamed for intentionally twisting people’s words. It’s pathetic that you can’t make a valid point without misrepresenting what people say.
