Atheists: What gives you the right?

Question

What gives you the right to be the judge of another person? This thought occurs to me. I bash catholics because I was raised catholic. Few have done more in the name of atheism on Y!A than I have. Yet as of now I am distancing myself from you. Your overly opinionated attitude and supremacist paradigm is quite frankly getting on my nerves.

Let it be known that the Chosen1 will not fight for Atheism any longer. Know the difference between a warrior and a child.

Answer 1

atheists are the last people that do any judging sir. you have to be a believer to even formulate an opinion of judgment. Im sorry you feel we are smarter. Obviously you havent the mental fortitude to know that there is dishonor on both sides.

Answer 2

ooh... if you can't see the irony in your question you probably need to have your brain checked.

Based on your logic I have the right to bash humans because I have always been, and still am, a human. I'm uniquely qualified to judge humanity.  

Answer 3

i was a ex catholic to and i was indoctrinated and i fight for people who have to live with this kind of stuff

Answer 4

To all you atheists that think it's ok to belittle people... seriously? I mean, come on, we have different beliefs, deal with it, don't attack. How silly is it to call someone stupid because they're different. That's the very idea that's behind racism... "They're black so they have to be inferior." It's no different.

Answer 5

I bash christians because i was raised christian.

And i have the right because i AM right.

Answer 6

I'm sorry, but I couldn't read past "I am taking you down a peg." Too freaking hilarious! Oh, you are a pip, now aren't you? My side hurts from the laughter.

Honey buns, you are on an internet forum, you are anonymous, and you have no power over  me or anyone here. It is impossible for you to take any of us down a peg. When you've grown a bit in your maturity you will understand this.

Carry on.

Answer 7

ok.......................

im going to plead the first

@charlie...

whatever it is.. it's sideways

Answer 8

And just what are you doing but judging all of us and feeling morally superior? Hypocrite.  You don't have many friends, do you?

Answer 9

....alright. Have fun with that.  

Answer 10

Pompous ***! I've never even seen you on here before! How dare you lump everyone here into your little pot. The chosen one? Chosen by you? No one asked you to be the ring leader as if we need one. I was raised in the pentecostal/evangelical death cult. Don't you dare  tell me how to think and speak. I had to deprogram myself. I had no help. Were you brainwashed with insane fear? NO! I was. Like I said, you are a pompous ***!

Answer 11

The difference between a warrior and a child?

That's easy, the warrior doesn't throw a temper tantrum , such as yours, for attention,  that is left to the child...

Addition:

Actually I have a right to speak my opinion, you have a right to ignore me.  No where does your action (ignoring) enter into my rights...

Why not exercise your right to ignore rather than throwing a tantrum....

Answer 12

Ahh, my friend, thick skin is a must around this part of the cyber world..... Let it skim off your back like water off a duck.... I do not take much that is said in here seriously, though there are a few that are, serious I mean !! though I am pretty honest about what I believe and do not believe, and do not mind saying so, I try real hard to not step on toes..... I answer a questions as best I can and in the way that I believe to be true ! However, there are those who think I am arrogant or a snob for doing so ! What is the point of asking a question if you do not want the answers ? Even if they are from a different view point ? Is that not how we grow ? *sigh*, anyway.... go in peace..... God bless

Answer 13

Be careful ... people will start reporting you just because they get mad even though you're asking a legitimate question! Y!A doesn't really read those violation reports ...

Everyone judges everyone else. It's the world we live in. We think we have those rights for some reason.

Answer 14

What's up your a'ss?

Answer 15

"You have a right to speak, you also have the right to be ignored."

Interesting though, that you completely fail to do just that....ignoring, that is.

And to answer your question, "Who am I to judge"? Well I'm me, I'm usually right, so the ebst thing to do is just sit back, have a valium, and just let it happen. K? Cool.

Answer 16

Smug aren't we?

There's a lot to be said of a mans character when you insult them. Pick your dummy up off the floor sweetheart.

Answer 17

Nobody died and left them boss..

Answer 18

You were raised Catholic, but how well do you KNOW the faith?  Not just what you learn in the books, but also spiritually?  Obviously you don't know it, because if you did, you wouldn't be bashing people of your own faith.  But hey, it's your loss.

Blessings to you, and my prayers  are with you.

Answer 19

This guy's loud, and abnoxious but he's right. alot of the atheis here get all pissed off at christians just because they belive something different and they say they have the facts on their side but nothing has been proven to support either view so shut the h**l up! And they also only only critizie christiians when theier are other religions, how come noone trashes buddism or muslims? why doesn't everyone leave everyone alone and let them belive whatever ****** up **** they want.  

Answer 20

geez. i thought i was a relatively cheerful, optimistic person, but i think i'm now converting to misanthropy.

please, let's just spread some love here! no wonder the world's so in shambles when a silly little website like this is in such an uproar!

the true doctrine: human beings suck. christian, atheist, hindu, muslim, jew, all.

we're just a bunch of smug idiots. now there's an inconvenient truth. and i'm not even excluding myself here.  

Answer 21

I don't get it. Do you need burping or changing?

Answer 22

You're funny.  My irony meter broke listening to you knock others for being judgmental.

Answer 23

I too was raised catholic as a child, But I never believed in any of it..

I bash christians and especially catholics, because I was raised dealing with their ****!  

Answer 24

Okay, I give up.  Who ticked you off?

Atheists don't fight "in the name of atheism".  We fight on the side of science, rationality, and critical thought.  

Answer 25

"I bash catholics because I was raised catholic "

1.Catholics are Christians

2.I was raised Christian .

edit : ticket for being a Smug : 27 $

Answer 26

good move my friend.Atheism can become a religion of sorts if it becomes your identity. I don't care what coarse an idiot follows in this world.

Answer 27

Well, we've got the facts on our side.  It's not a matter of who's nice and who's not.

We're the sane ones.  Sorry to break it to you.  It's not my fault your god is disproven.

Answer 28

Let me make this clear.  Theism, because it asserts belief in a transcendent being, stands in direct opposition to reason. Theism claims that there is something that can never be explained by science or reason. It must, if it hopes to carve a niche for faith, attack the efficacy of reason.  Because our ability to reason is one of humanity's essential characteristics, this attack on reason is an assault on our nature. Implicitly and explicitly, it seeks to inhibit us, to stifle our inquiry, to render us dumb and complacent.  Anyone who values knowledge, reason, and humanity itself should not be tolerant while her fellows are enslaved, for all to soon, those slaves to the will of irrationality will silence her forever.

Every time we remain silent and fail to point out the wrong, we lend a little more credence to the lie.  Beneath the thin facade of smiling faces and words of tolerance, religion is at war with humanity.  Because I care about humanity, because I do not wish to see even one of us degraded, I stand now resolute in its defense.

Answer 29

Well, you are saying you are an atheist also. What gives you the right to judge us?

Answer 30

What gives Christians the right to tell me that I will burn in agony for all eternity because I don't agree with them? In fact, what gives you the right to judge atheists based on YA?

Answer 31

What gives YOU the right?
