Is it normal to think anyone who believes in god is a moron?

Seriously how can anyone actually believe in this stuff??? Bill Maher says it best, he is the man! I'm not deliberately trying to offend anyone, I just don't get how people can be so dumb. I have alot of friends who are Christians and I can't help but look at them as a bit stupid, even if they are otherwise quite intelligent. Come on people!!!!!

    god and jesus it's just a story to reassure people that there's something more after this life.There isn't!it wouldn't be bad if it didn't cause so many wars.When people ask me what's my religion and i say atheist, there like, outraged.and yes i do think your intelligences is questionable when u believe in god or take the bible seriously.

  • They aren't morons, they can think what they want. You're the moron for judging them because they believe in something you don't.

    I don't think of them as stupid unless they shove it down my throat or get offended when I say I'm an atheist.

    'Hell of fire'???? If it makes you feel better to imagine I'm going there then that's fine. Hypothetically speaking, given the choice between sitting on a cloud in heaven with all the Christians listening to Creed for all eternity, or hanging out down in hell with all the 'sinners' enjoying never-ending orgies of food, booze and sex with none of the nasty side effects (and the occasional red hot poker)... Hmmmm I wonder what I would choose?!!

    And people who believe in God think those that don't are morons.

    Sounds like you do kinda believe Aussiewolf ;-). And of course I agree that we need to be nice to each other, but I don't need religion to tell me that. It's funny how mot wars and conflict are perpertrated by religion. And the bible also states that if your gay, having sex out of marriage, disobedient to your husband, sleep on the left side of the bed, eat cheese after 4pm then you need to be stoned to death or something. Doesn't sound very 'nice' to me!

      I think you need look at religion from a more philosophical point of view. Not necessarily believing in it but understanding the reason for AND against religion before you form your own opinion of it.
      Your friends who are christian may be blindly following christ without actually knowing what they are worshipping in which they also need to research their God and the bible from a philosophical POV.
      Is it possible that the old testament contains parts that are incorrect?.Yes.
      Some sections in the bible (particularly the old testament) contain rules of the time NOT necessarily of God. Such as the stoning, murder, eating certain foods etc.
      There are two different ways of studying the bible liberal which takes it literally ,metaphorical which looks at the deeper meaning.
      These are a few things of MANY things you look/think about when you study the bible from a philosophical POV.
      No one can tell you what to believe you should decide so for yourself. Although you would be foolish not to do some research first.

    I feel the same way, and I wish I didnt. I respect others religions but I always have this feeling of pity for them when they (in MY opinion) waste their time/money on anything church related. in my mind it is so ridiculous!

    Oooooo they are also predictable in their response to this. I never said people can't believe what they want and I honestly could not give two shits about it either. The whole point of the post was to say that I can't help but doubt your intelligence if you think there is a dude in the sky controlling everything. Ok there are varying degrees of belief, if you are just a bit spiritual but don't take it all to seriously then your probably not totally a moron. But if your one of those nut jobs who take the bible as literal then sorry but you are unequivocally, positively, undeniably an A grade moron. The scary thing is these people are allowed to hold positions of power.
    It's pretty simple to understand how religious theology was formed, in a nut shell: Good/Evil = Day/Night
    The prophet (insert your prophet of choice eg. Jesus) = The sun
    Erggg can't be bothered writing anymore, basically it's made up by ancient folk to explain the workings of the universe, it's all pretty much relatable to astronomy. Time to evolve past these ancient ideas and move forward. That is all.

    Religion has caused too much conflict. If we just let eachother get on with our lives and believe whatever we want to believe, life would just go on without the conflict. Religion may be a coping strategy or reassurence for some people.

    I'm currently on the fence with all the religious stuff. I think there is somthing bigger but thats just my belief, you believe in whatever you may or may not belive in and thats that

    Its normal human behaviour to have belief in something. Im atheist, but I do still believe in spirits. Like not crazy "omg killer ghosts" but more of a quirky wonder of could there possibly be some form of life, after death?

    Take a christian theology class. I hope you do know that the bible is not meant to be taken literal. Answer this, how are god and jesus related to one another? If you can't even answer that you are technically the dumb one for judging on something you know nothing about.

    i dont believe in the whole heaven and hell but i believe in the fact that the message they are trying to portray as being nice to each other and respect one-another. whether you believe in a religion or not, the world would be a better place if people made the effort to be nice. and then when you die, if there is heaven and hell, then "god" would appreciate that you made the effort to be a good and decent person.

    You cant exactly say that you believe or 'think' these people are dumb and expect not to offend them. Its a free world, we all have opinions and beliefs. Dont judge just because you dont share the same thoughs or ideas.

    Oh wow Soulfire42, what can I possible say to that?! Thank you for giving me all that hard evidence disproving evolution and the big bang and thank you for putting forth your evidence for the existence of a God.....

    @Soulfire42 I find it ironic that you're calling somebody else a moron, yet you
    spell towards "tords"

    On a side note, how did you disprove the theory of evolution? I have facts to prove evolution, FOSSILS.

    Comment Hidden ( show )
  • You are a moron! Even scientists are even leaning more tords christianity because you cant disprove it! I can disprove the theory of evolution, theory of once being fish o birds or whatever loons throw out! Big bang? not possible for two perfect minerals or particles or whatever to come into contact in the endless void of space. even if the did how did they get there? did some other particles make them when they mashed together? I think not! and if God did make the big bang then that proves christianity. so just think about it and next time, have a legit argument with some factual support, then i might belive you a little bit

    Silly of you to assume I have not done my research. I certainly have, which only goes to strengthen my belief that believers are morons. The bibles content is not really relevant here, obviously it reflects the time in which it was written, duh. I don't discriminate when it's comes to religion, all are ridiculous.

  • IsthisREALLYnormal?

    Well, there is no proof for god, so anyone who has that active believe are a little naive..

    NOW it takes a whole nother level of stupidity to believe that the god character put man ina garden where he aquired original sin, which makes us ALL deserving of eternal TORMENT..

    BUT, theres a way out, that is you have to believe that he impregnated a virgin, in order to sacrafice the baby on a cross later..

    Soo..

    Deists- Naive
    theists-(Basically people who make CLAIMS about the NATURE of god) are stupid

    well to be honest monnas i want to believe that we go somewhere and not just no longer exist, even if we reincarnate as something else. but i like the good bits of the bible and the commandments. its extremely sexist but that is how things were way back when. i just like being nice to people and for them to be nice in return. i dont understand the mentality some people have to put others down for no reason.
