-----BEGIN PGP SIGNED MESSAGE-----
BECAUSE ATHEISM IS properly defined as a "belief", e.g.,
quoting from Webster's New World Dictionary & Thesaurus:

"Atheism -
the *belief* that there is no God, or denial that
God or gods exist." [end quote, emphasis added]

Thus Atheism is properly a (ir)religious belief, and so
adherents and proponents of Atheism are equally as much
believers in their godless religion of Atheism as other
believers in other contrastingly less-godless religions
are likewise believers their respective religions; some
devout believers, some less devout in their convictions.

Now, because Atheists hijacked America's public schools
and America's justice system some decades ago, Atheism
has been the official religion taught in public schools
and enforced in the liberal-biased courtrooms nationwide.
Beginning next year, those dark days of history are OVER!
No, the religion of Atheism isn't going to be banned from
public classrooms or courtrooms. Rather, the strength of
our great nation,--the greatest, most prosperous, generous
and powerful nation in recorded world history,--is that we
not only tolerate freedom of religion and freedom of speech,
we *encourage* every law-abiding American citizen to believe
in their beliefs and express their beliefs however they see
fit; and to pursue life, liberty and happiness in every way
that they possibly can...strictly within the law, of course.

Thanks to Alito's right-wing seat on the Supreme Court, we'll
soon see the ever-more popular theory of 'Intelligent Design'
being taught right alongside the ever-less popular theory of
Evolution. No, our public school teachers won't stop teaching
the theory of Evolution, but will in effect "superimpose" the
theory of 'Intelligent Design' over the top of it, so to speak.

Also, contrary to the fear mongering and misconceptions being
propagated from the now politically-disempowered and inviable
left, we're not going to outlaw Atheism or any other religion
as long as their adherents don't break the law--THAT's the key.

Once you understand that freedom of religion is the strength
of the United States of America and her unassailably-dominant
rule over global destiny, then you'll realize that people of
all religious faiths--even dyed-in-the-wool Atheists--will
soon be mutually free to openly worship according to their
beliefs and to express their beliefs in public schools, as
long as they're not violating any school rules, or breaking
any ordinances or other local, city, state or federal laws.
For example, Atheists will continue to boast in many public
places about how they *believe* there is no God, no divine
Creator, no soul or spirit, no ghosts, no angels or demons,
nothing paranormal or supernatural whatsoever. And that's
their right to do so. If they want to go around making fools
of themselves by mocking others' heartfelt religious beliefs
in public, then that's their right to do it; to believe what
they want, and to express their beliefs openly--even if you
abhor them and vehemently disagree with everything they say.

Likewise, believers in other religions, Wiccans, Astrologers,
Tarot Readers, Psychics, Occultists, Christians, Jews, Hindus,
Muslims, Buddhists, Mormons, Theosophists, Zoroastrianists,
Shintoists, Taoists, Bahais, Gnostics, Deists, Theists, Poly-
theists, Satanists, Tree-worshippers, et cetera ad infinitum:
ALL law-abiding citizens will soon be free to believe what
they choose to believe and to openly express their beliefs
in public places, as long as they're not breaking any rules
or laws to the contrary. And the Supreme Court will guarantee
that freedom of religion will be mainstream in public schools
and courtrooms. The Ten Commandments will be displayed in view.

That's what scares the hell out of the Atheists, since they
will soon lose their draconian stranglehold over America's
public schools and courtrooms all across our great nation.

And Yes, fanatical factions on the far-left AND on the far-
right aren't likely at first to be too enthusiastic about
freedom of belief--even religious belief--becoming federal
law. Change is often painful, especially for those clinging
to unjust, obsolete, ergo religiously-intolerant ideologies.

But that's okay, they'll just die off, eventually. And new
generations won't even remember the abject foolishness and
oppressiveness of the religiously-intolerant Atheists who'd
tried so hard to keep the American public in the dark for so
long. Cat's out o' the bag: Atheism is ONLY another religion,
a very dull, unspiritual and unenlightened religion at that. :-D

What's GOING to happen is that every man, woman and child in
the world is going to find out that God loves everyone, and
wants every soul to succeed--even if it take a million years.
God doesn't let anyone off the hook. Even the unwisest, evil-
doing souls who've incurred massive indebtedness against the
great Spirit must eventually pay *every* last penny they owe
in saecula saeculorum, into the ages of the ages. It's the LAW.

Enjoy!

All of you are a pathetic and sorry lot! Probably, the most poignant
question of our existence, and you're making a grand mockery of it! Hiding
behind semantics and profanity only adds to your cowardice.
To you the Godless: if for you, there is nothing higher than you that is
beyond your understanding of the realm of your reality, then so be it! But
don't deny the existence of God when He touches your life, because you will
be denying it only to yourself.
To you the God-fearing: who are you to deny those who do not share your
believe, they're right to free will? Try considering that perhaps, just
maybe, God is so far beyond ALL human sensing, measure and comprehension,
that it isn't easy to believe in or undertstand Him.

***** you very much.

Probably, the most poignant
question of our existence, and you're making a grand mockery of it!

We don't generally mock, we simply don't bother with fantasies.
What we do mock are people like you who attempt to justify their faith as
being based on anything more than spiritualistic religious dogma.

Hiding behind semantics and profanity only adds to your cowardice.

Yet you insult atheists **in the first sentence of your diatribe**,
making your post a pathetic example of fundie hypocrisy.
******* you**, you hypocritical *****.
If you want a congenial exchange of views, you better fucking lean to
behave yourself or you will get told to GO ***** YOURSELF in no uncertain
fashion. Play nice, be polite or *****.

To you the Godless: if for you, there is nothing higher than you that
is beyond your understanding of the realm of your reality, then so be
it!

Fine by me.

But don't deny the existence of God when He touches your life,
because you will be denying it only to yourself.

Your particular brand of self-delusion is but one of a wide spectrum of
spiritualistic religious dogma.
Why should your personal brand of spiritualistic religious dogma be any
more trustworthy than any other brand of self-delusional fantasies?
As for denying it "only to myself", since 'god's existence can only be
demonstrated by self-delusion then my lack of self-delusion is all the
proof I need.

To you the God-fearing:

What makes you think atheists are god fearing? Why should we be any more
afraid of 'god' than the easter bunny?
I'm more afraid of the energiser bunny than 'god'.

who are you to deny those who do not share
your believe, they're right to free will?

You need to improve your grammar; "belief", "their" and so on.
As to your argument, atheists specifically don't 'believe' anything in
particular. They just **don't** believe in 'god'. The rest of their
views are varied. So making comments about atheists specific 'belief' is
ridiculous.
As for others, their right to free will is not restrained by atheists
lack of belief.
However, atheists will generally not tolerate religious views or opinions
being pushed on THEM, any more than atheists expect followers of blind
spiritualistic religious dogma to base their views on say, science or
logic.
Your argument's fucking backwards. Typical nonsense.

Try considering that
perhaps, just maybe, God is so far beyond ALL human sensing, measure
and comprehension, that it isn't easy to believe in or undertstand
Him.

I've tried considering it and on the balance I believe that belief in god
indicates the believer is able to self-delude themselves.
Next time, try posting something worth discussing, because you're a big
fucking disappointment.

I'll keep that in mind. :-) (I did say it was a dumb question...)
As for BB's original (and at this point implicit)
assertion: I could think of more relevant queries than
whether deities exist, such as the following:
- How are we going to keep the population manageable without
devolving into eugenics or overloading the Earth?
* issues with food
* politics
* border squabbles or outright war
* water, oil, and housing shortages
- How can we improve the longevity and/or health of humans?
* disease
* food
* DNA repair
* gynecology, cleanliness, etc.
- How can we improve the intelligence of humans?
* teaching
* chemical brain stimulants
- How can we improve discourse between humans?
* politeness
* intelligence
* common language and/or interlanguage and/or communications aids
* respect
- How do we preserve sufficient history so that we don't repeat it?
* Holocaust
* Moonshot
* Computers of yesteryear
* books
- What's really out there?
* probe explorations
* rocket improvements
* faster than light drive -- if at all possible
- Why does everything cost so damn much?
* money = power = competition
* corruption
* verticalization (e.g., instead of puffed rice one has
Krispy Rice With Real Imitation Marshmallows That
Get Soggy In Milk -- Now With Extra Licensing Fees
Because We Feel The Need To Put DVDs In Every Box).
* expectations
* minimum wage & surplus labor
* taxation and government funding
* the problem of Social Security growing like Topsy
[...]
- What else is on the top of my head?
* hair
* more hair
* less hair (darned bald spot)
* hats
[...]
- Things One should do with one's cat
* feeding
* flossing
* cat-proofing one's expensive vases, electronic equipment, or
allergic housemembers
[...]
- Why do cars have four wheels?
* history
* efficiency
* rubber versus other materials, such as silk, ice, or concrete
[...]
- What is a deity?
* mind control
* "go to heaven if you agree with me, go to hell if you don't"
* bonding and ritual
[...]

You're new to Usenet, aren't you.
I only post from alt.atheism and I've never seen the post "Most Haunted vs.
Ghost Hunter". Did you happen to notice the subject of this thread?

Oops. You made a grammatical error in your
second sentence, there. Let me correct it
for you:
"I suspect I am so simple, it is hard for

There; a MUCH more accurate statement...

Hey, it's not about me; you're the one who came
here claiming:

I come seeking the truth only, nothing more nothing less.

I'm just trying to be helpful.
We're happy to help you with your mental
conditioning problem, but you have to be honest
when you say things like that.
The truth is, there is no evidence that any
Spooks-in-the-Sky are looking down at everything
you do. Do you worry whether Zeus is getting
ready to zap you with a lightning bolt? Then why
worry about some other fictional deity doing it?
Reflect carefully on that paragraph, and maybe
your 'simple' problem will fade away...

Let us look at a few of the claims. Some people believe in a personal
friend that is all knowing, all powerful, quite deaf and dumb, and
invisible. They call this person God or Jesus, take your pick. They also
believe that Noah packed all 10 billion species onto a boat and then
distributed them to all the correct places. Yes, put all the marsupials in
Australia, the Bison onto North America, The European swallow in Europe and
so on. He also made sure the Elephant was placed in Africa. Now please
tell me who is trying to ***** who again.
Logically, scientifically, and philisophically there can be no God. This
has been proven time and time again. References are available quite esily
by doing a Google search.
Even the bible is *****. The bible is a collection of old stories that
was voted on by a committee for inclusion. Word of God? Word of Man is
accurate. The idea that the bible is the "Word of God" is a fantasy and a
poorly constructed one at that.
Do yourself a favor. Rationally think about it. Is your God truly the
loving being he is or the loving being you want him to be? If you really
examine the facts you will discover that your God as he stands right now is
nothing but a cruel, twisted, sick individual who likes to kill, torture,
and cause human suffering.
Now take your God and yourself and go. When you have come to the
realization that God and Jesus and religion is nothing but a socio-
political way for some people to control the general populace, then do come
back.
You don't want to because you cannot face the possibility that thousands of
people could possibly be wrong? Consider what people believed a few
hundred years ago. They believed that witches could turn men into animals
or even mythical beasts that never existed.
Now who is trying to ***** who?

All this wailing and gnashing of teeth is really unnecessary especially by
such a head-honcho. It's surprising that an entity purporting the truth or
rather the lack thereof really needs to impose its will like this to make
it's point known or prove it (whichever suits it at any given time). As
aparting gift, if what you say is true, do you really need to battle so hard
to prove your point? As I'm sure you know, the truth will surface. And when
it does I take solace in knowing that you will be happier in knowing you
were right, if you are indeed.

Come back when you've got some evidence your

All of you are a pathetic and sorry lot! Probably, the most poignant
question of our existence, and you're making a grand mockery of it! Hiding
behind semantics and profanity only adds to your cowardice.

Dear Mr. Amoeba,
The heads of department here in Saneville are still not fully satisfied that
your mental health is sufficient enough to warrant early release although we
are more than willing to discuss your recent brain-cell activity.
Latest indications show that cell division has taken place and this,
together with your previous brain cell, demonstrates that improvements in
your mental capacity are more than possible though somewhat
limited as far as fully functioning intelligence may be concerned.
We are therefore greatly concerned that you have not been in touch with us
recently and we would request that you address this matter with some
urgency.
Your new medication is now available through the dispensing department of
the clinic however, the resident psychiatrist would prefer to see you before
re submitting your request for release into the community.
Yours... Dr. Gunther Finklebaumer

Dear Dr. Finklebaumer,
Thank you most kindly for your most gracious response. You're obviously a
subject matter expert when it comes to mental health at the sanatarium...oh
so sorry, Saneville. However, it appears best that I refer you back to your
self-admiration given your apparent lack of comprehension at the words
"mockery" and "cowardice" in that reference passage quoted. Furthermore, I
can only assure you that my mental capacity and brain function are well in
check, contrary to your most eloquent sarcasm. If you do have any further
worthwhile commentary to make which may even border on the sublime or the
vaguely intelligent, please feel free to respond (note the word
"intelligent"). Otherwise, talk to the those nice chaps in the white coats.
Hope your strait jacket isn't too tight.
Best wishes,
A. M. O. Eba

Dear Mr. A. M. O. Eba,
Your recent request to gather in an act of conversation with a member of the
'white coat' community appears to be borne of frustration at your apparent
lack of
communication skills. I would like to refer you to another self-help
therapist on the team at the Saneville Institute of Psychiatry, Dr. Greta
Muzaltopf.
Her immense skills in the social communication department has seen major
improvements with all of her patients, specifically in those of an extremely
challenged nature.
Her model for generally accepted human interaction is widely appreciated as
being the most understandable course for bringing lesser members of the
uni-celled lifeforms together in order that they may find improvement in
their own social circles.
Please be advised, this course is not for the squeamish as it can be of a
violent nature. It is an extremely new practice and still in its infancy.
Things can, and so often, do go wrong for the patient when they first learn
to communicate with other lifeforms on an acceptable level.
In the meantime, may we wish you all the success in your endeavours and hope
that this may be of use to singular celled lifeforms such as your self.
Yours... Dr. Gunther Finklebaumer
