A Sequel, (personal observations)


I wrote a post called “Dear Active Atheist”.  It was not quite as successful as I’d like, though it wasn’t a completely worthless venture.  I tried to offer a platform of reasoning.  But no one seriously took the offer.

So what have I learned?  I learned that men call themselves atheists because they love the idea that there is nothing to be accountable to.

I learned a crucial side benefit for them in their godless thoughts; with no conscience to hold them down, they allow themselves to seek all possible notoriety (regardless the cost to anyone else).

And lest I had forgotten, I am reminded of what selfish brute beasts they are.  If they are not busy pursuing selfish pleasure, they are actively destroying the lives of those with hope.    In the best of my estimation, they are not a benign tumor in the body of humanity.

If it is a pursuit of pleasure you desire, why don’t you just call yourself a hedonist?  Why go so far as to say there is no God?   So on that note, honesty just isn’t enough.  I don’t think you’re an atheist, I think you’re just willfully ignorant.  In which case you are nothing special at all.

I have also learned that the atheist is a thief.  If he is not actively doing damage to those with hope, he is stealing from the mass of humanity by failing to take into account the larger picture.  A man can only teach what he knows. 

The majority of mankind at least recognizes that there is a larger picture.  Denying the portion of religion and the supernatural, the Atheist robs his fellow man of what is apparently crucial knowledge to all.

Let me finish this by addressing self aggrandizement.  There’s no God in the atheist’s mind.  So he raises himself to fill the void.  If others don’t agree with his newfound royalty, the atheist becomes livid.  It is because of simple posts like this, that I have been witness to explosive outbursts that fall just short of the legal line.

Once again my conclusion is correct.  At best the atheist is a worthless member of society.  At worst he is violence in the waiting.

I have reported my observations according to what I witness.  If you atheists have something else to offer that can soften my observations toward you, please present it.  I am not hard hearted.  I simply lack any proof of your value.

And please, be wisely aware that displaying any of the things I have already mentioned will do absolutely nothing to change my observations.  What credible value are you to humanity?

  1. You claim that I am a selfish brute beast. Who gave you permission to judge anyone? Your hope, as you call it, is based on fantasy. That I disagree with you should be no problem for you. If you were truly using the teachings of your deity this would not be a problem for you. That people disagree with you seems to be a real problem for you. I don’t think you’ve understood what your christ was trying to teach you.

    The point of saying there is no god is because you insist there is one despite complete lack of evidence for one. You may well think I’m wilfully ignorant but it is you who believe without evidence, not the atheist.

    You call me a thief yet it is you who would rob a child of their ability to choose. You would teach every child that your imaginary god exists and expect them to tow the religious line for life. You rob them of critical thinking. You rob them of a choice. The atheist steels nothing from them. Your logic is failed, unsound, and dangerous. You claim that the supernatural is the larger picture and important but you have no evidence, no proof that it even exists. I don’t believe your claims. For you to then call me a liar and a thief just makes you look like an imbecile.

    The atheist says there is no evidence for any claim of a god that is valid. The atheist does not have to prove their point of view. You are claiming that there is a god. Prove it. In the complete absence of proof of your god, there is no reason to even think your imaginary god is possible.

    IF you had proof then all those that are wont to believe would convert to your religion. The fact is that every religion by itself, (each sect) is a complete minority. The various minority cults cannot agree and so there are so many religions that nobody can take any of them serious. If you in particular had all the right answers and proof of it there would be only one religion – yours. The facts show that you don’t have that. You can’t even convince those that want to believe to believe as you do. When your arguments convince other religious faiths to change then I will listen to you. Until you can do that you are simply blowing hot air. You are nothing. Your arguments aren’t even believed by those that want to believe. You are a failure. Your belief is a failure.

    You don’t have to convince atheists. Your first goal should be to convince those that want to believe in a god…. except you can’t even do that. When your arguments and evidence has Hindus converting in their masses, maybe I’ll listen to you. Right now all you have is a bit of crybaby stuff and no evidence, no proof, no persuasion at all. If you can’t convert believers of other faiths in their masses ( people that want to believe ) then how is an atheist supposed to believe your bs?

    • Right now you’re full of energy and ability. But the world has ways of bringing all people down to reality. Soon enough a time will come, in this life, when the ways of this world will crush your heart to near complete despair. You will crave that someone should come and help you. But there will be no one to be found. You will absolutely hate what you are allowing yourself to be now.

      That’s a promise the world will deliver to you. It will get intensely personal.

      • You further insult me by insinuating that I can’t handle life on my own. Your inability to deal with the rough patches does not imply never mind mean that I can’t. If you find life unbearably difficult without an imaginary friend I would think that you want to keep that kind of information out of the public sphere. I have been there, there was nobody… that’s exactly how I became an atheist.

        The truth is that nothing is personal. When philosophy of everything gets thought about, we act out of fear … it’s not personal at all. Then again, I don’t think that you would actually work out what all the philosophy is about. You have your book and can look no further into the matter of life or living.

        When my time comes, phhhht. I’m already ready for it. I know who I am and what I am. I’m good with it. I’m not pretending like you apparently are. I know the value of my life and I know the value of my life to me. I have no delusions or illusions about what life is. I don’t need an imaginary friend to make me feel good or comfort me when life sucks. You see, there are people that are strong enough to face life head on. None of them are god believers. Your weakness is not an advantage, it’s a weakness… period. Your religion tells you that you are born weak and failed, your god commands you to depend on him to help you. You have zero proof that any of that is real and you tell me that I will be left wanting. Well, tell you what, you and I should get together with your god. Get him on down here, let’s have a beer and talk this over. Maybe he can convince me that he exists. You suck at that job.

      • As I said before, it will be true. Right now you’re strong and able to defend yourself. But the world has a way of lowering every person. Your strength is nothing but pride. It is impossible that pride can sustain anyone.

        Look at how easily you’re insulted. If someone says something to you that doesn’t match your pristine image of yourself, it causes you excruciating pain. How ineffective is pride when used as the singular engine for life?

        It is God who gives you the things you need to sustain your life. You live and breathe inside his merciful protection. But somehow you think you invented the world. Or at best you don’t consider the miracle of the place you live in. You are sufficient unto yourself. That’s pure pride.

        You will find a place where you will crave the solace of someone greater then the things that come against you. Because you rely on yourself, you will not find that Solace.

        You consider that a slam. It’s simply a fact.

        If you keep going the way you are, your life will be completely useless in the end. Oh you’ll get a lot of things done. But they will turn out to be nothing more than things.

        Bud, I’m just telling you the way things are. You’re living the life of someone who tries to reinvent the wheel, all the while you curse at those who trust in the efficiency of a circle. The very nature of reality will prove you wrong.

        If that’s being an inept messenger, what more then can be said? At least we who deliver this message to you care enough to find the guts to tell you these things. I can tell you with absolute assurance, you will not stand on your own for very long.

        You’re building the house of your life out of toothpicks, hoping it will weather a hurricane. Again, that’s not a slam. That’s the way things are.

      • I am not ashamed of my weakness sir. For it displays the glory of God and removes all possibility of pride from me. In that sense, it is my honor to display my weakness. I am not ashamed of the gospel of Christ Jesus. Christ is first among all creation. For eternity, there will be no place for anyone else to boast of his own ability. If that sends your sense of self-worth reeling, there is nothing I can do to help.

  2. I am quite astounded by this post. Rather than addressing the reasons some people might struggle to believe, you create a series of ‘straw men’ to demolish. I don’t like the way you ridicule people who don’t believe.

    Always be prepared to give an answer to everyone who asks you to give the reason for the hope that you have. But do this with gentleness and respect (1 Peter 3:15)

    • I am astounded by it to Peter. I’ve tried to be soft with such people. These, by the way, are no bevy of straw men. The ones I am addressing are actively at the outskirts of Christianity.

      I am NOT astounded that I have made such writings. What astounds me is the lack of boldness on the part of Christianity to stand face to face with these drooling banshees of destruction. The failure of the church to properly assess what stands against them. Because we, I included, have decided to move the church inside some special building.

      The assessments I have written are true. And I will not pull them back. Let them stand as a rebuttal to those who despise the living God.

      The majority of Christianity would had me be a soft and harmless man. Have we forgotten how the prophets of God treated those who despised the living God?

      Do we overlook the words of John the Baptist to those who live their entire life in rebellion? Was he soft and cuddly to the rebellious?

      People moan and complain that the current world is destroying faith and freedom in Christ. In response they either do nothing or they speak softly to no apparent effect.

      My conscience cannot let me do nothing, while I see my brothers and sisters robbed of hope. There is a right in Christ to make proper assessments. I can’t count the times I was told I should not judge. In the way that God judges the saying is true. But I am also required to draw a line of distinction between what is holy and what is not.

      It has been a useless challenge. For nothing in them will change. But I drew them out so that everyone can see what these people are made of. Let their lies and rebellion be very clear. They are no benign affliction among men.

      And I will gladly even take to rebuke of my brothers. But I will not stand idle and watch my family in Christ be attacked. They are the very mouthpiece of the enemy.

    • My apologies for the first reply.

      Peter I am caught. I am caught by the wicked if I say nothing. And I’m accosted by the church when I speak up.

      The teaching of these men is the foundation on which is built the current attacks against the church. My soul is compelled to speak up. If that leaves me out in the cold, so be it.

      Even if I am labeled a heretick because I speak directly to the proper assessments of wickedness, I am forced to wear the label. What choice is present before me?
