Why must the fact that religion is not allowed in our school system the cause of some fucking asshole going into a school and killing fucking almost 30 people (20 children)? I am so FUCKING tired of hearing stupid shit like this. Religion does not make a person good. When is everyone going to fucking wake up, stop being a fucking sheep and think for themselves and start realizing that we make…

I've been reading a lot of nonsense recently about how "christians are persecuted, and everybody hates my religion," blah, blah, blah. Well I beg to differ on those statements greatly! Christians have it better than ANY specific group of people in the USA. They have power over 2 billion people. control governments throughout the world. my anger isn't specifically towards the christians but since i live in America they are a major thorn in my side. 

Being an Atheist, on the…

Hi there world!

This would be my first post to Think Atheist, so here goes.

First things first, I have a strict rule about not arguing over the internet, so don't expect to find me on chat or the forum anytime soon, I'm mainly here to read, ask questions and vents my thoughts somewhere where I know it's not being read by anyone I know, because there's a certain amount of freedom in that.

So this post is just to sort of welcome myself to this site and to make me feel like…

A rant I made at a google+ post comment, I think this is my best yet & I've copied it verbatim. If you want to check out the post, here is the link.

Edit - You can't check the google+ post as it seems the OP has deleted it. Shame, it had some of my best comments :(

 

No one here is…

I ran across this video today. It is centered around Kirk Cameron telling his conversion story with commentary from John MacAuthur. This entire video is just filled with their typical delusional fantasies. Kirk Cameron sends the message of "Oh, Christians! We are so persecuted just like Jesus!" by saying "..but you come in and say that I'm a follower of Jesus Christ, born-again, all of the sudden, people wanna step 10 feet back and point their fingers at you." [6:10] If people are stepping…

Do you feel yourself holding back in a conversation because you don't want to sound overly 'smart' or offending the opposing side? I sometimes find myself doing so. Sometimes, I have to watch my language because, let's face it, some people 'don't know them big words.' I also find myself holding back because I don't want to upset anyone or make anyone feel as if I'm picking on them. I see myself doing this all the time...

 

A friend of mine asked for facebook prayers [I have…

Although I have not been on this site very long, I'm beginning to notice a pattern with the theists that post here. Most will come into the conversation and post ridiculous accusations about atheists. We're closed minded. We cannot see god because we don't believe. We claim 100% truth that there is no god. We're ignoring 'facts' that are in our face [i.e: earthquakes are getting stronger-proof of Jesus' return]

 

To me, it seems most theists are not interested in learning about…

So reading a few posts made by friends on Facebook, I came across this:

A volcano has erupted in southern Japan.... SERIOUSLY?!?!!

Then, a few responses down:

Shit!! What the fuck did the japanese do to piss god or whatever u wanna say off?

 

Seriously? There has…

Call me a conservative, but never call me a religious zealot all for "pro-life" when it's convienent. This whole debacle with the Health Care reform bill... the fact that they put anti-abortion rhetoric in there just to get the republicans to sign off DISGUSTS me! Either they have a sound plan and all people will vote for it because it's sound or you don't. Playing for the political vote just to get *some* of what you want by introducing whacked out legislature is offensive in my… Continue

The coffee shop where I work is constantly crawling with holy rollers. One of these people recently left her "amplified" version of the bible behind, and it was promptly taken to the back. I have been perusing it for a week, looking for every passage that the owner highlighted and trying to divine what kind of person this mystery woman is.



The most heavily highlighted areas were in the book of Job and Proverbs, particularly passages about women. More particularly than that,… Continue

As many of you have seen I don't always stick to the topic of religion, every now and then I'll delve into the world of American politics in my blogs as well. I was sitting at work today killing time before the shift officially began and I happened upon this article on Time.com...



Citigroup Plans Big Bonuses Despite Rules Against Them

I was recently introduced to Pat Condell's YouTube channel (http://www.youtube.com/user/patcondell), and have spent the last day or so nodding, laughing, and getting angry about religion. He is (as I understand it), a stage comedian who has gone to YouTube to rant about religion and why we're better off without it. I can't recommend any one video above all other because, honestly, I think they're all fantastic.



Anyway, take a look and enjoy :) I'm going to watch more videos there… Continue

I have already posted this article on my regular blog: 1azylizzie.wordpress.com however because of the subject matter I thought it was worth sharing here too, so here it is:



As you all may know, Australia is in the middle of its most tragic and devastating peacetime disaster in it’s history. Bushfires are raging in our southeast state - Victoria, with many of them believed to be started by arsonists.



Whole families have lost their lives, and entire communities have been… Continue

Well hello hello hello...



I was, at first, hesitant to do a blog post here, as I already run a separate blog (1azylizzie.wordpress.com) which I have enough trouble maintaining as it is.. However, my 'home page' i guess looked a little sad with no blog posts added, so I decided I might as well add an entry....



I don't usually spend too much time on social networking sites, but I thought that I would give this one a go, because unlike Facebook, here I can remain as anonymous… Continue

Well I just so happen to be in a particularly foul mood when I stumbled upon this web site so you guys will have to bear with me while I step up on my soapbox for a moment here. For my first blog I guess I'll go ahead and show you how accurate that little "what kind of atheist are you" test result on my page is. It will be short, sweet, and overflowing with anger. I've spent the last couple weeks reading about the insanity in Gaza as a bunch of irrational fanatics kill not just each other but… Continue
