Atheists Club

Journal Entry: Sun Mar 9, 2008, 4:40 PM
====================
WELCOME
====================

AtheistsClub is for the most deviant of deviants: atheists, agnostics, secular humanists, and all hard core freethinkers.

The AtheistsClub promotes artists that share a way of thinking and living that aims to bring out the best in people so that all people can have the best in life. Our members reject supernatural and authoritarian beliefs. They affirm that we must take responsibility for our own lives and the communities and world in which we live. The AtheistsClub is for artists who emphasize reason and scientific inquiry, individual freedom and responsibility, human values and compassion, and the need for tolerance and cooperation. Oh, and let's have some fun too!


====================
HOW TO JOIN
====================

Becoming a member of the AtheistsClub is easy, just add us to your friends list. We will confirm your membership by adding you to ours. If you really want to be uber-cool, you can also send us a self-portrait for our gallery. Its not required for membership, it's just fun.

ONE WEEK
--------------------

The AtheistsClub usually responds to notes and messages within one week. We do better on some days than others, but seven days seems to be the practical limit on how much we can do when things get busy. We almost never get complaints, but I wanted to make sure that everyone knows, we are definitely not ignoring you if it takes that long! Thanks for understanding.

It says it's for all hardcore freethinkers -- if you feel that you fall into that category, I'm sure he'd be happy to welcome you to the group. If you want, that is. It is kind of implied that everyone here either denies or questions the existence of God.

And whether or not that description is declaring those kinds of people to be better than others is debatable.
~angelofdarknesss:iconangelofdarknesss: 1 day 3 hours ago
First of all, I didn't type anything, it was a baptist friend of mine. I'll let her express her opinions now:

Allow to apoligize before I teach you something.
I don't believe you understood the main concept of my previous rant.
Grow Up.
It's incredibly immature and piously pointless to join and comment on a website dedicated to freedom of RELIGION, freedom of PRESS, and freedom of EXPRESSION/SPEECH, if you are going to waste electricity on insulting someone clearly beyond your maturity level.
The point of being a christian is accepting those different than you, not trying to hassle them into being what you want them to be.
Trivia:
Who exactly is it that Jesus the Christ was friends with, and found acceptance with?
The sinners.
That's right.
Jesus loved sinners.
Did he tell them they were stupid for their way of life?
No.
And also, it is in the Commandments:
Thou Shalt Not Judge.
And what are you doing?
Judging us for who we are.
So, how christian is that?
Not very at all.
Why don't you keep your closeminded and unneeded comment to people who actually care.
And you obviously show you lack in the basic bible knowledge.
You don't have to be a genius to know where you are overstepping the bountries.
If you don't approve of atheists and agnostics, then don't visit our profile.
It's as simple as that.
Or are you just looking for something to nag?
And also, before you try to nag us, at least do your research first, or else you'll look like an imprudent waste of organs and epidermis.
Is that simple enough?
If you don't like what I do, don't continously message me about your life.
It's just annoying, pointless, and childish.
Understand?
And before you pulls the whole, I'm-Not-A-Real-Christian-Because-I'm-Friends-With-Those-Kind-Of-People, stop being prejudice and remember, Jesus was too, and at least I practice religious tolerance instead of stupidity.
And do you really think Christians are so holy.
Study the inquisition.
Learn about the crusades.
Think about the Christian war stradegy in Bosnia '90's.
And there is no excuse for that.
Thou shalt not kill.
So instead of bugging us, take out your little bible
And look at both sides, like an mature human instead of a hermaphrodital nomad.

Once again, I hope you enjoy this rant from a baptist. And remember her immortal words, GROW UP.

"...for the most deviant of deviants: atheists, agnostics, secular humanists, and all hard core freethinkers."

...sorry, I couldn't help to sigh when seeing this.
Surely a Christian or other religious person can be a 'hard core freethinker'? Or be the most devious of deviants?
Please don't think I'm bashing- just expressing a concern that everyone is starting to think they are better than everyone else. And that clubs saying things like this are springing up is quite saddening. Maybe they are better? We don't know that. Saying things like 'religion is wrong' and such.. Everything is a matter of opinion.

Sure, make a club to celebrate who you are. But not to make yourselves out to be better than everyone else. It's segregation. :(

And by the way, not all of my prayers get answered. God isn't showing favoritism; He's answering prayers that deserve to be answered.
~sonrouge:iconsonrouge: 1 day 17 hours ago
FYI, I was responding to the question "Why do you believe in God,"

And I'm not trying to force anything down anyone's throat. I'm simply standing up for what I believe; you'll notice that nowhere have I condemned anyone on here simply for being an atheist.
~angelofdarknesss:iconangelofdarknesss: 2 days 3 hours ago
Well, that's just all spiffy and what not- but frankly, this doesn't mean the slightest inch of anything to me. Why? I'm not you. You have your reasons for your belief, and I have mine.
Not everyone has a damn skippy life as you do.
And honestly, I like to approach each religion just as you try to enforce yours down others' throats.
Also, why are you on profile designed for atheists, agnostics, and etc when you're going to start this with the ones who actually branch out from the closeminded beliefs of this?
And what about all the empty prayers that have never been answered?
Are you implying that God is showing favor?
Or is it that he just doesn't care about the rest.
Believe what you want, and I'll do the same.
One more thing-
Grow up.

Hi!

You featured my piece “An Explanation of My Atheism” a while back. I took it down and resubmitted it to deviantArt. The reason why I did this is fairly simple. The original piece that I wrote ( was much longer and had a bunch of side tangents that I felt required editing. As such, the newer version (which has been up for a month or so) looks substantially different than the original. Due to this editing, I have pages and pages of comments that are utterly irrelevant at this point or engage in discussions that are unrelated to the current piece. If someone is just now seeing the piece, I don’t want there to be confusion or weird side tangents for people to have to sort through in the comments section.

Here is a link to the new version if you want to check it out and perhaps fav it:

If you have any comments or critiques on the new version, I would love to hear them.

If people would mind their own lives everything would be great.

And I still hate religon of all kinds.

~sonrouge:iconsonrouge: Apr 16, 2008, 9:33:09 PM
And anti-religious people are not to blame as well?

~lordogreus:iconlordogreus: Apr 16, 2008, 12:57:57 PM
Tongue-in-cheek. It illustrates my sentiments regarding Christianity, which, obviously, are very negative.
~artimake:iconartimake: Apr 16, 2008, 8:46:13 AM
I don't claim to be better than anyone. But I do dislike christians strongly. If they'd just keep their religon to themselves everything would be fine.
~sonrouge:iconsonrouge: Apr 15, 2008, 9:12:10 PM
I prayed to God for my grandmother to get better and she did. When my cat ran away for three days, I prayed for his safe return and he came back. When a friend of mine was suicidal and cutting herself, I prayed for healing and she became a better person.

THAT is why I believe in God.
~sonrouge:iconsonrouge: Apr 15, 2008, 9:08:47 PM
Last I checked, the Constitution still protects Freedom of Religion and Freedom of expression. Are you willing to go that far just because you don't agree with Christians?
~sonrouge:iconsonrouge: Apr 15, 2008, 9:05:54 PM
You know, it's insults like that that keep Christians and Atheists from agreeing to disagree.

You claim to be better than Christians, yet most of what I hear from Atheists are petty insults and accusations for all the world's ills. Is it not enough to simply not believe and leave out the hostility?
