Freethought/Secular/Humanist/Atheist

I dont like the term Atheist because it itself has morphed into a religion , which contradicts exactly what its supposed to be. And nobody tries harder to recruit than the Atheists

Atheism is not a religion or a philosophy. Atheism simply means "without belief in god(s)".

Strictly yes but as I said it has evolved into a religion through the medium of popular culture and overussage of the word by spotty teenage types searching for something or someone to be angry at.

I see it now as a set of beliefs one of which is the disbelief of an all powerfull deity.

And what of it not being a philosophy?! Of course its a philosophy.

Atheism is a philosophical view that is the position that either affirms the nonexistence of gods or rejects theism.

There is to much **** going on in the world for there to be any gods. If there are gods and they let this **** go on, then I want no part of their vindictive nasty ways. And don't give me any of this free will ****.

I'm catholic.. I feel though that religion cause's far too many arguments and wars these days. I don't go to church anymore or ever feel people should feel they have to or feel a certain way.

Stu 24-07-2007 10:33 AM

If I was to believe in a God , I think you can worship whatever God you care to worship without the need to brand yourself into a religion. I dont know why more people see this.

I cant stand the boys in Italy , homophobic and anti-contraception. The vatican is a classic example of something caught up in a time warp.

MarkWaldorf 24-07-2007 10:34 AM

I never took Religious studies, but is Church of England Christianity?

I agree with you Stu. You can do whatever you want to do in this life and believe whatever you want to.

And I agree with your comment on the Vatican.

That goes back to that theory I love. Its not exactly the most healthy theory , but a makes a lot of sense - it states that one should be able to do what he wants with his or her own physical body providing it does not interfere in a negative way with the lives of others.

I voted atheist (with a small 'a'). I still believe in a deity though, of sorts. I suppose it's closest to the Gaia hypothesis, but I'm not up for being a happy-clapper in accordance with someone else's guidelines.

Lauren 24-07-2007 11:43 AM

I've voted other.

Open-minded freethinker.

Emilee 24-07-2007 11:49 AM

*Adäm 24-07-2007 11:52 AM

I don't believe in any. Religion actually angers me as its basically strict rules that you need to live your life to...no thanks! No for me.

Protestantism is a branch of the Christian religion, similar to Catholicism. :whistle:

Its a branch of christianity and as far as I know they dont believe in the immaculate conception. The name comes from 'protest' im presuming as it was various people going against the vatican during the reformation...

loads of stuff on wiki

Other-Agnostic.I lend myself more towards the weak agnostic view of whilst the existence or non-existence of deities is currently unknown I'm still open to there being a God but need conclusive proof before I can truly believe.
