On the other side of the coin: people who either worship themselves as the pinnacle of creation or worship Big Daddy Government.


Why should there only be two sides?

Also, isn't it the utmost in irony to accuse non-theists of "worshiping themselves as the pinnacle of creation"? Remind me who it is that claims they are made in God's image to have dominion over the earth and all other species?

lantern53says...

Christians don't claim to be the pinnacle of creation. God is the pinnacle of all things.

Unless you are an atheist. Atheists believe that humans are the pinnacle...well, some atheists believe that the Earth, or Gaia, or whatever they call it, is the apotheosis of creation.

^How can God be the pinnacle of creation when he's the "Creator"? Have you even read Genesis?

Anyone with the slightest understanding of how nature works knows that it has no "pinnacle".

quantumushroomsays...

They may not use the same exact words, but for the atheist there is no intelligence more supreme than humans (at least until the Singularity).

Per Judeo-Christianity, humans are considered created in God's image, but are not God. They may have dominion but are not creators on the scale of God, and they (we) are saddled with responsibility, our continued existence is threatened by failing to rule wisely. Also, being 'fallen' creatures in a 'fallen' world, there is much work to do.

Wherever God is ignored, the people that take over in God's place as The State are typically the worst humanity has to offer, no matter how good their intentions.

No we don't claim shit. You suscribe us to that simple belief because you must have that thought to comfort you.

I believe that nothing is the pinnacle and everything is equal, everythings 'matters.'

This is fucking pathetic. How long before these people are at an altar sacrificing virgins, begging god to make the sun come back. Hey America, maybe the reason your country is going down the drain is beacuse you keep voting fucking idiots like this into office. Ever think about that?

Also I wonder what it is that America did wrong to make god so angry. Whilst I admit it could be all the fag enabling could it not also be for all the wars and conflicts and dictators it enables? Perhapa it's the recent hassling of the arabs and stubborn support for Israel. Maybe Popefessor XVI at the Vatican school for the gifted could use his mutant abilities to ask god the answer. That is of course if he's not to busy enabling child molesters.

I'm thinking the irony is lost on young Duckman. That or acidSpine is trying out for Westborough.

Say what? You are blaming the problems in the country on gays? You're just as bad as the religious nuts if you subscribe to bullshit line of thinking.
