Hello

 Hello, I'm Danielle, 16 years old. I've been an atheist for about 2 years. I will debate religion at any time of the day with anyone, adult, child, teenager. I have arguments related to every historical event, recurring themes in literature, politics today, how it's used for fear mongering, the effects on an individual, cults, etc. The recently had an intense debate with a hardcore theist. It was lol-worthy. I'll gladly send it to anyone who would like a laugh.(Warning, it was 17 pages.)  I'm new to this site, so I'm just exploring the forums right now.

Hi there!  You'll like it

Hi there!  You'll like it here.  The debates can get pretty intense.  I don't do a lot of it myself but I like to read what other people say.  I'm new to this whole atheism thing.

Anyway see ya around!

Welcome!It is good to get

Welcome!

It is good to get out of religion reasonably early, so you don't 'waste' too much of your life  .

I was never into religion at all, and have only got more confident with the idea that superstitions of all kinds are at best silly, and at worst, dangerous to the individual and society.

The more I have learned and actually seen of the world, from China to SE Asia to Europe to the US, the less sense it makes to me.

I am Australian, BTW.

Favorite oxymorons: Gospel Truth, Rational Supernaturalist, Business Ethics, Christian Morality

"Theology is now little more than a branch of human ignorance. Indeed, it is ignorance with wings." - Sam Harris

The path to Truth lies via careful study of reality, not the dreams of our fallible minds - me

From the sublime to the ridiculous: Science -> Philosophy -> Theology

 http://www.rationalresponders.com/forum/19205 - Here's the link if anyone wants to read some long-winded, repetitive responses from an annoying theist. It's a pretty lengthy read, but it may give you a laugh.

 

TThanks everyone for the welcome. Smiling

WHAT THE ............Oh man, we atheists are getting to them at a younger age........what will the believers do? I know.......replace public schools with Sunday Schools and only teach the children to recite the bible. Heck, it works for Muslims in the Middle East. We wouldn't want our youth corrupted by pesky truths like human flesh staying dead after 3 days. We wouldn't want the pesky truth to get out that it takes TWO sets of DNA to manifest into a zygote.

You are a horrible youth. You have no idea what you are spreading.

WHY WONT YOU LET THEM BELIEVE IN THEIR MAGICAL INVISIBLE SUPER BRAINS WITH NO BRAIN, NO NEURONS OR CEREBELLUM!

When I was your age, we didn't have shoes. We had myth and we believed those myths to be fact without questioning our parents!

YOU YOU YOU YOU YOU pesky rational whipper snapper! *Shakes fist from porch at the teen walking down the street quoting Dawkins*

Whatever you do, stay away from Bob Spence. I hate him. He has this magical power where he reads my thoughts and causes me to call him up on Skype so he can indoctrinate me into atheism. HE IS EVIL!

What would you expect from someone who hangs from the floor upside down?

You're not allowed to shake

You're not allowed to shake your fist from your porch until you're 60 Brian. We've spoken about this before. > >
