Why do atheists, being so logically and rationally minded, insist on going into obvious christian forms and mocking, insulting, and demeaning those who claim God? Why not start your own topics and engage amongst yourselves? Or is scoffing your sole purpose. Jesus warned us about you. 2000 years ago! Go figure.

  The same question can go for Christians. Why do Christians go into specific forums meant for another religion and try to convert?
  
  The answer is simple. Even today, people are afraid of what is different.

  How does sitting at your computer desk help people see the attraction of your behavior though? No offense, but shouldn't you be out in the community and trying to better the earth, rather than sitting on a computer, typing words into a public forum that people will just twist around anyway?

  I have heard other hubbers say this has happened...a religious person goes into an different religion or nonreligion thread for the purpose of converting souls. I have read many threads to see it for myself yet haven't found a single one. Would somebody be so kind as to help me find an example? I am not being lazy, but after reviewing numerous threads in which I would suspect such- I haven't found any.
  I am all for the civil debate. Discussing would be great - I learn a lot from people of all faiths.

  h.a. - I could never go back and find all those hubs in which I witnessed a religious person that had gone into a different religion or nonreligious threads forum as they were months and sometimes over a year ago, but I do recall having seen them again and again. Very few were ever civil. Everyone has their opinion and thinks they are right. Personally, I think they should keep those opinions to themselves and simply enjoy their beliefs in their own lives and leave others to theirs.

  Some actually believed December 25 was the birthday of Christ and tried to prove it by arguing from the conception of St. John the Baptist. Assuming, gratuitously, that Zachary was high priest and that the Day of Atonement fell on September 24, John would have been born on June 24 and Christ 6 months later, on December 25. This theory is now considered completely untenable."

  I'm a Christian but Christmas apears to have returned back to its pagan roots. That is, lots of eating and drinking to excess, decking halls with boughs of holly, bringing in a fertility tree from the garden, fairy lights and giving and recieving of presents.
  
  The truth is the church sold out to Constantine. Had we kept the celebration of Jesus birth to the proper time of the yer (whenever that was) we would have a much simpler celebration and the pagan festivities would have died out centuries ago.

  Whether or not a belief is true, it's insulting to call it superstition. How would you like it if I said that atheism has absolutely nothing positive to offer the oppressed, no moral guidance from any source higher than humanity (which has proven unworthy of that kind of authority), no justice for the poor, no vindication for the suffering, and no hope for those who need it?

Remember the posts in the religious forums don't JUST appear in the religious forums. I am an atheist but on several occasions the threads i have joined in on have come from the main forums page, I have never actually entered teh main religious forum itself.

I tend not to enter Christian discussions, more the christians who insult atheism, or try to prove atheism as wrong, or talk about atheism.

In some cases i am tempted to enter some threads though, because like the rest of humanity, sometimes I am tempted to comment on some posts simply for the 'how can the be so stupid' factor.

I welcome the athiests in joining the Christian forum debates, and also those of other faith persuasions. If only to liven them up a bit. Rather than complaining that we feel insulted, Christians should just accept this as part of life as Jesus said it would be. He said that as long as we are in this world we will have trouble.

Yet, curiously, the Bible records nothing about the apostles or early Church observing Christmas. History shows that it wasn't celebrated until hundreds of years after Jesus Christ lived on earth, and long after the apostles had passed from the scene.

Even more curious are the surprising circumstances under which Christmas came to be observed, and the many aspects of today's Christmas celebrations—including the date, Dec. 25—that have nothing to do with Jesus' birth, but do have a lot to do with ancient pre-Christian religions.

  Christmas originated at a time when the cult of the sun was particularly strong at Rome. This theory finds support in some of the Church Fathers' contrasting the birth of Christ and the winter solstice. Though the substitution of Christmas for the pagan festival cannot be proved with certainty, it remains the most plausible explanation for the dating of Christmas"

  I agree. I personnaly resent all that goes with Christmas bah humbug. It's just a commercial racket and an excuse to indulge ourselves. There is little or no Christian content to Christmas and probably never was if we accept the pagan fusion into the Catholic Church by Constantine. Scrap the whole thing I say, and save ourselves a load of financial misery.
  
  While we are at it, let's scrap Easter too. That is nothing but pagan symbolism.

  I understand your anger at individuals that harm, not only children, but any undeserving person. As a matter of fact, that specific behavoir is even worse for someone like myself who advocates that ssme God they do. I do not adhere to donominations, but it stills pains me to see individuals acting in such a manner. But I would ASK that you don't generalize as that suggests that we who believe would all be capable of such acts. I for one detest that type of behavoir, and although they do it, I am content that they will be dealt with in a just manner.

  Those who participated in the witch trials were confident they were doing God's work. Cotton Mather was the son of a minister. He believed the witch stories told by the children because he was superstitious.
  
  Some believers seem to think they are not like those who have done wrong in God's name. A belief in invisible beings is the first step towards other superstitious beliefs. It gets easier for them to confuse reality with imagination. Soon, facts and logic have no bearing on one's beliefs. Why should they, the Bible is all they need.

  The christian atrocities of today are usually less deadly, but only because their power is limited by the state. Imagine what they might impose on us if they could get away with it. Civility is a thin veneer, and it really hasn't been that long. Alot has changed in just half a century, but you hear many of them still pining for the "good ol' days".
  
  All it ever takes is the means to do so and one nut in a pulpit. They've got plenty of nuts, no doubt, and the willing followers. Thank goodness we've taken away their means. Like the LDS church, they know they won't last long if they don't restrict their practices to conform with the law.

  Exert "German victims break years of silence
  Prominent Austrian and German writers and a composer are among the hundreds of victims who have broken years of silence to talk about how they were sexually abused while in the care of clergy and teaching staff in boarding schools.
  Klaus Wittenbrink, a respected composer and pianist who attended the Domspatzen choir school in Regensburg, Bavaria, until 1967, has spoken out about the existence of a "refined system of sadistic punishments linked with sexual lust".
  For three decades until 1994 the choir was led by the pope's brother, Georg Ratzinger, who has confessed to slapping children but has said he knew nothing about sexual abuse.
  Austrian writer Josef Haslinger, who attended a Catholic boarding school, said he was sexually abused by clergy as a 12-year-old boy. "I had wanted to be a priest myself until then," he said."

I must add the Anglican church. when the head of the church had a visit from one of the leaders who had known about abuse and hidden it, every choir boy at the church knew what he had done, it was all over the newspapers. My son was a chorister at the time, and all the kids warned each other about his visit.

  Why on earth would you restrict it just to religious organizations, though? It is neither the case that such abuse happens ONLY in the presence of religion, nor that the majority of religious people condone or commit such atrocities. While I believe understand your point, the victimization of children is by no means a phenomenon that occurs only relationship with religion. Rich and poor; educated or not; Americans, British, Chinese, Australians, Irish; believers and atheists...people from all the countries of the world and all walks of life have molested children.

  The truth of it as far as I can see. You set up a sexual situation like abstinence and you attract child molesters.

  Possibly the reason the Bible warns against being a preacher, or staying unmarried.
  
  Nothing in the Bible suggests that Churches should even exist. What has been spun into separate religions were letters admonishing certain cities for doing something against teaching, not to set up new religions.
