"There are no atheists in foxholes"

There are no atheists.

Atheists believe in God, but just believe in what he is, rather than
what
people say about him.

Some people call themselves atheists, but they don't even know what
the
word
atheist means.

People use words that they don't understand to try to sound
impressive.


In your case, that would be any words.

Atheist - without a deity.

I don't believe in a deity, therefore I am atheist. Simple as that.

Yes you do, you just don't know what you are saying when you use that
word, deity.

It encompasses more than you now realize.

I'm curious.

Do you understand that every single person in alt.atheism thinks you have
serious mental problems?

Do you get understand that at all?

You are an idiot. Don't you DARE tell us what we do or don't believe.

No need to get your feathers all ruffled. I am only expanding your
horizons, and taking away your fear of what you know may happen if God
does turn out to in fact be real.

No, you're being an insulting asshole.

(But you're a theist so that's expected)

Actually, there are. The military allows official designation of
atheist symbols on headstones. They also allow the use of the Wiccan
symbol for practitioners of that religion.

Atheists have a symbol? That's a new one on me. How do you symbolize
that which is not?

There are ONLY atheists in foxholes.

Nobody who believes in an all powerful "god" that will protect them or
"call them home" to paradise is going to be cowering in a foxhole, afraid
for his life.

So you're saying that atheists are cowards and Christians are heros.
I'll buy that........



Every person in a foxhole is an atheist.

Every.

Single.

One.

I'm saying that deep down, you *all* know your god is a myth. You fear
death just as much as anybody because you *know* it's the end.

There are no atheists.

Atheists believe in God, but just believe in what he is, rather than what
people say about him.

Please tell me how I believe in a god.

Do you believe in truth? in justice? in brilliance of thought? in
perfection?
Then you believe in God, whom is all these things, and others.

Your definition of god entails everything and nothing. It is utterly
meaningless.

Some people call themselves atheists, but they don't even know what the
word
atheist means.

Tell me what I believe.

You are an atheist, and an atheist believes in God. They just believe in
what God is, rather than what men say about him.

Nonsense.

I'm an atheist and I was in a foxhole. If I saw someone praying
instead of shooting to protect his brothers, I would cap him. A
christian piece of **** sleeping on guard duty gets the same. No god
ever protected anybody while asleep.

I call it superstitious dues.
