You're confusing atheism with agnosticism.RaceBannon said:
I kind of chuckle when someone thanks the "Universe". Its like I don't want to say God but I want to thank some mysterious entity but I'm an atheist so I'll just sound stupid and say universe instead.creepycoug said:
Fair enough. Nothing wrong with acknowledging spirituality in the abstract sense of it. The more organized and institutionalized rule-drive, the worse.pawz said:
Meditation techniques and other breathing exercises can be taught non-denominationally.creepycoug said:
I agree w/ this. I don't agree with the bold part. The road to hell is paved with fairy tales about a better life waiting for us when this one's over.pawz said:It's not our possession of guns, it's our culture that must change. Freud intoned: sometimes a cigar is just a cigar. As such, attacking a 'tool' is a band-aid for a failing social society.
From over prescription of psychotropic medication; to the violence propagated on TV, movies and video games; to social media's inherent mouth piece for narcissism; to society's vanquishing of spiritual, faith based principles (east, west or in between).
If we really aim to keep our children safe, we must focus on the deep-rooted cause of an assailants anguish, not his tool of destruction. And to do that, we must focus inwardly on what we have allowed ourselves to become. Unfortunately self-reflection in our society is as far from en vogue as is possible to imagine.

I imagine that our atheist friends here find it as silly as I do.
I'm the kind of guy that insists that atheists be pure in their atheism. There is nothing to thank, no hidden hand, no force no nothing.
Unless you want to tell me I'm "stupid" for questioning a guy walking on water a few thousand years ago.
If there is an entity, it is as mysterious to me, as it is to you. You don't know even one more sliver of shit about the true nature of existence than do I, whether you think you've "found" something or not. Uncomfortable though that may be, it is what it is: Universe, God, Alah, Zeus, Mother Nature ... what-ever.
I hope you enjoyed your chuckle. I enjoyed mine. -

Good point. Outlawing migrant immigration from Mexico will work though. Build a wall. Have Mexico pay for it. Trumpanzee logic.Sledog said:For the liberals. Your own logic should apply to guns as well.

Neither the “fat pregnant bitch” nor the migrant laborer from Mexico will ever figure out a way around, over, under, or through the wall. $200 billion? Big deal. We will have made it harder and that’s what matters.
This is the kind of thinking and policy making that has made the US the drug and prostitution free country we are today! MAGA! -
