                I wouldn't call atheism crazy. Negative and of little value add but not crazy.

                  I see what you did there (is intentionally obtuse).

                    With you atheists being such negative downers...we could definitely use a bit of levity in the thread.

                      Religious faith is of little value add to me and the words that come out of the mouths of the faithful are often quite negative. So, it cuts both ways.

                        I'm not an atheist...'me' is much less important. The golden rule means JC-centered Christians are thinking of others. And religion provides too much positive charity to society to have it cut both ways.

                        Edit: Making the assumption you care about societal charity. This may not be the case.

                          The religion's followers bomb too many OK City federal gov't buildings and doctors clinics for it to not cut both ways.

                            Negativity from an atheist? How shocking.

                            Regardless, which of your examples would have been advocated by Jesus? On the other hand, where's the code of ethics for atheists Stalin, Pol Pot, Mao, Mussolini, Kim Jon Il and Hitler - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religi...f_Adolf_Hitler 'hates Christianity'.

                              Is it possible to be both a committed follower of the christian philosophy and an atheist?
