One's views on many things will shape their philosophies. That doesn't make all of those views religions.

True, one's views are shaped by many things. Atheism shapes one's philosophy of life as does theism.

Again, you are stretching fundamentalism past its breaking point. Being vocal is not fundamentalism. Having an opinion is not fundamentalism.

I'm simply pointing out the fact that fundamentalism is in many life philosophies, not just Christianity. Atheism has it's fundies also.

That is not Darwinism. That is justlookinlaism.

Do you need me to post the definition of Darwinism again to refresh your memory?

More like not agreeing with them, requires they place a label on the person who disagrees with them. They even do it to Christians, like Diz.

How does that quote go?

Religion has all the answers, but doesn't allow any questions.

It's not about disagreement, it's about one's view of their philosophy of life and how dedicated to it they are.

For example, I consider myself a fundie Christian. (Throws a soft lob)

You mean, if I believed in a religion that stated murderers would be given eternal life if the murder finds Jesus in prison, while the Hindu or non-believer who did charity work their whole life goes to hell, that this belief would influence my philosophy of life?

You, a fundie, you must be pulling my leg? I never could have guessed that.

And yes, it is absolutely about disagreement and that is crystal clear by viewing your posts and others. You see, when one is so invested in a belief that requires absolute faith, disagreement of others is viewed as a threat, especially in fundies.

As I said, predictable, oh so very predictable.

So you mean how vocal they are, and how it bothers you that others are vocal about it. Is that what you mean?

For example, I consider myself a fundie Christian. (Throws a soft lob)

I feel no need to call you a fundie in order to score cheap rhetorical points. Why do you feel it necessary to use such labels?

Atheism isn't a philosophy. Being vocal is not fundamentalism. Having an opinion is not fundamentalism.



You keep posting justlookinlaism.

That's how many fundies are, if they are banking on religion, then everyone else must be too. They hate to be alone.

Who's talking about religion? I'm simply pointing out that atheism is a determinant in one's philosophy of life. It helps shape it, give value to it.

Atheism results in a philosophy of life.

Atheism isn't a philosophy.

Atheism is a determinate in one's philosophy of life.

Being vocal is not fundamentalism. Having an opinion is not fundamentalism.

True. Fundamentalism is a behavior concerning one's views.

You keep posting justlookinlaism.

You're not answering. Do you need me to post the definition of Darwinism again?

That's how many fundies are, if they are banking on God not existing, then everyone else must too. They hate to be alone.

Darwinism, from Wikipedia....

"Darwinism is a theory of biological evolution developed by Charles Darwin and others, stating that all species of organisms arise and develop through the natural selection of small, inherited variations that increase the individual's ability to compete, survive, and reproduce."​

What part of the definition do you take exception with?

Do you see me disagreeing with posters like Diz and his belief in God or other Christians who declare they believe on faith and do not reject reality.

Please show where I do, I challenge you. I will await.

What part of the definition says that those are the sole mechanisms, and that they are mindless, purposeless, and without meaning?

That doesn't answer my question. Is everything a religion in your eyes?

Atheism is a determinate in one's philosophy of life.

Does being a determinant in one's philosophy of life make it a religion?

True. Fundamentalism is a behavior concerning one's views.

No, fundamentalism IS the views.

You're not answering. Do you need me to post the definition of Darwinism again?

Yes, and show where it says the things you claim it does.
