Well, i didn't say all atheists hate Yahweh. But i notice many do, or at least dislike Him.Firstly, I don't 'hate' Yahweh, or any other non-entity you care to imagine.
And i think i understand that too.
I just don't agree with it and often find their reasons weak or flawed.
See what you did there?He is as innocent as any other character from fiction.
You know it's not just fiction, as in "people just making stuff up".
Or at least, you OUGHT to know that's not the case, since you choose to waste my ehm.. your time on CF.
So you have this antipathy against an idea you don't seem to understand or know about...
But that's just how it comes across for me.
This would be a valid point if there were still organisations with the ambition to rule over people under the flag of Christianity.He is not the problem. The problem is the people who purport to speak and act on his behalf, in the real world, in ways that affect me and others.
Not so sure about how Islam will develop in the host nations though...
It's a part of the Islamic faith to fight for world domination.
Not so with Christians. (comparing the teachings of Jesus and Muhammad here).
But both religions have been (ab)used for ruling over people.
But let's not forget that atheistic views have gone hand in hand with communist regimes too.
I.m.o. the choice is to seek truth or not.Secondly, no one 'chooses' what they believe. You are either convinced, or you are not. I am
not.
If you want to know something about something, in order to be able to form an opinion about it, you follow the evidence, you explore various view points.
Emotions, peer pressure and preferences often stand in the way.
But you know humans...
They have to have a need for truth before they go seek it.
Why thank you.How profound.
