You realize how dumb you are for not researching into it? Satanists ARE atheists, they do not believe in the possibility of a god and furthermore think of themselves as superior beings. They are people on an ego trip who think logic is better than religion but they go one step further and proclaim themselves the most advanced lifeform in the universe.

Satanists are atheists on a huge ego trip.

Einstein was atheist, bitch.

Thats a widely spread lie!

When Einstein spoke about "God" he was really just personifying the universe.

Same with Hawking.

"I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religion than it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it."

"I cannot imagine a God who rewards and punishes the objects of his creation, whose purposes are modeled after our own -- a God, in short, who is but a reflection of human frailty. Neither can I believe that the individual survives the death of his body, although feeble souls harbor such thoughts through fear or ridiculous egotism."

"I do not believe in the immortality of the individual, and I consider ethics to be an exclusively human concern with no superhuman authority behind it."

"If people are good only because they fear punishment, and hope for a reward, then we are a sorry lot indeed."

Like Jefferson? or Thomas Paine?

Both had a distinct dislike for organized religion.

Besides, back in those days, it was much harder to be an atheist, without the theory of evolution as a way of explaining the complexity of life and all.

All he did was bash the ideas of modern religion. Because of his hate for religion he took a stance close to atheism but if he was a true scientist he would concede to the possibility that maybe there is an afterlife but it just wouldn't be how humans described it.

Most of our forefathers were deists, but not Christians.

The conflict arises when people use varying interpretations of what the word "God" means.

There is a positive correlation between intelligence and lack of belief in a higher power. It's true that there are "smart" Christians, and that there are "stupid" Atheists, but there are far, far more Atheists with genius IQs than there are Christians, and there are far fewer Atheists than there are Christians.

You want an endorsement for Atheism? George W Bush is a Christian!

Atheism = hate of religion?

I noticed a lot of atheists tend to dislike organized religion which is quite understandable. I have to wonder though...do they hate the idea of an afterlife or eternal soul? Do they hate the idea of a God who doesn't judge based on a system created by man? I wonder just how many of these so called atheists are really agnostics with a VERY strong dislike of organized religion. Afterall, isn't an atheist just as ignorant if they claim to have 100% absolute certainty about the non-existence of God in the same way a religious person has 100% certainty in the existence of God?

Just a thought.

I didn't know true scientists had to "concede" to anything there wasn't evidence for.

Way to generalize, fag.

Sure, I bet some "atheists" started calling themselves that because they really do hate God or the Bible or just organized religion in general.

But most atheists I know (including myself) became so because the evidence suggests no personal deity whatsoever, not because we hate yahweh.

Although never coming to belief in a personal God, he recognized the impossibility of a non-created universe. The Encyclopedia Britannica says of him: "Firmly denying atheism, Einstein expressed a belief in "Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the harmony of what exists." This actually motivated his interest in science, as he once remarked to a young physicist: "I want to know how God created this world, I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts, the rest are details." Einstein's famous epithet on the "uncertainty principle" was "God does not play dice" - and to him this was a real statement about a God in whom he believed. A famous saying of his was "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."

You pose a fine point! However, do they actually hate organized religion, or the way they are treated by people belonging to such religions? Atheists are the "number one hated minority in America" according to recent Gallop polls. Is there any wonder why they would be stand-offish in regards to such things? The thought of afterlife or an eternal soul is comforting, but not believing in it is a far cry from hating it.

Scientists are supposed to represent logic and logic dictates that something may be highly improbable but never impossible. Therefore for a scientist to not concede to the fundemental principles of reason and logic(the foundations upon which science are built) discredits the word of that scientist.

Someone who uses the word 'impossible' is not a true scientist. They are a militant zealot trying to use a commonly accepted system work for their own personal agenda.(or to represent their dislike of religious people/organizations)

What I personally hate about organized religion is the way it causes someone to stop asking questions, or to believe blindly in what they are told by authority figures.

Listening to preachers tell their congregation how to think, or what they must think, about a certain subject just makes me all sorts of angry.

Whats wrong with, "I know what this book says, but it was written a while ago...so just try to figure it out for yourselves, eh? Moses doesn't have any relevancy here, neither does Paul."

Believe it or not there are religious people out there who think exactly like you are proposing. But of course there is always going to be more 'stupid' individuals out there who find it easier to follow a crowd. Don't blame the organization, blame the people for being morons.

People with high IQ can still believe in God/afterlife and remain quite logical/rational. They tend to be people who also dislike organized religion and what it does to a society.

what i find interesting is that you guys have somehow narrowed down "atheism" to a very small slice of what it encompasses.
FYI:
People write their PhD theses on this kind of stuff and here we are at 4chan talking about it with the lowest forms of life on the internet. If you're really interested go to school or read about it, instead of playing philosopher on the internet with a bunch of people who don't have the slightest inkling of what they're talking about. If you guys are really as good of thinkers as you seem to think you are then you'd realize its bad to talk out your asses like this.

But conceding to something and admitting there may be a slight possibility of that same thing are entirely different.

I admit there is some small probability of a form of afterlife, but there is no direct, or indirect evidence to suggest there is one.

I'll not concede that there are fairies in the garden, but I will grudgingly admit that it is not impossible.

Just highly, highly improbable.

Not nearly as improbable as the existence of an all seeing creator who takes an interest in our daily lives.

And that is all I ask of you. An admission that it may be really fucking improbable but at least possible. The type of people I hate more than anyone are people who talk in absolute certainties as if they know everything in the universe whether they be religious or atheists.

I am an Atheist, but I come from a STRONG Christian background. I honestly believe that if you followed every lesson taught in the bible, you would be a good person. But yes, most people are blindly doing what they are told. That's the problem though, most people NEED to be told what to do. Religion has a place, and it needs to keep doing what it's doing, comforting the mindless hive that cannot think for itself. If everyone was a leader, there would be no one to lead, that is the way of things. Let the Christians continue their fantasy and think they are going to heaven while we are going to hell. Will that change the outcome in any way at all? No, it won't. It's human nature to believe what we are told. Most people don't question anything that they are told from anyone with any authority, even if they have no reason to know anything about what they are speaking on. Let it go on, don't stop it, seriously, we need religion to keep the lessor intellects comforted and in order.

Science's purpose was to avoid that kind of illogical certainty in things so it's pretty dumb to go around speaking in absolutes while touting logic on a scientific platform. Scientists will become just as bad as religious fanatics if they start going around saying this and that are impossible.

Good point. Like with Bush vetoing stem cell research, or threatening to pull funding from South Africa if they give out condoms instead of preaching "abstinence."

if they'd leave Christ to the christians, I probably wouldn't be as pissed.
