Well, since there has been a lot of talk about religion lately, I figured we should probably keep the discussion to this thread only to avoid spam.

I've always pondered this question:
If athiest is to have no belief of god, therefore it is to have no religieon, but not beiliving in god would be a religeion so athiest contridicts itself?

how would athiests practice religion? do they sleep alot? do they plant tress on their dead ancestors? would they save pictures of pikachu and frig around with it all day, like making pikachu a bunny, or a DR. seuss gangster? ( that's really fun) I don't know.
I don't know what an eastern orthodox christian is, it just sounds cool

I don't know i'm an athiest and I'm not suppose to believe in anything But, believing in nothing is believing in something! So is it possible not to believe in something, and not be a certain type of religieon?

If I don't believe in a god, then that's my personal philosophy. It's not a religion. A religion is an orginization based off of a supreme-being with rituals, some form of hierarchy, and an over-all goal. I'm an atheist, and I have no leaders to follow, no rituals, no supreme-being to worship, and I'm part of no orginization. How could you possibly misconceive that as a religion?

Well, to be an athiest you must know every religeon, so therefore you know that there is nothing out there that you personally beilive so there is no doubt in your mind what you are.

Mr. Atheist, what do you believe happens to you when you die? My body stops functioning and I cease to exist... like dust in the wind... I lose all sense of everything and I never live again. In the end, it's no big deal. We're all just organisms. There's billions of us. I can't say for sure what it's like to cease to exist, I've never died before, but I can tell you that there's no magical realm where dead people and fairies or angels or whatever flit around.

You sound alot like the guy off the TV show "House" his name is Gregory House, he's a big time athiest, but he's smarter than you and can prove anything wrong without a shout of a doubt and change the others mind....

I believe that GOD is an orb of shiny glitter stuff. And that if you wish to believe in him do just that. You do NOT need a religion for what you believe people made religion so old people have something to do (I have a religion and go to cla**es and church BUT I don't believe what they say) my mom thinks that going to church is good and when i'm older i can watch them suffer it will be sooooooooooo fun
