Oh no, not the old 'it's simply a lack of belief' chestnut again. The Church of Atheism's (CoA) central dogma is 'You shall read all religious figurative texts in the most naive-literal way possible'; their Old Testament (Darwin, Marx, Russell) and New Testament prophets ...

No—but that's EXACTLY WHY re-familiarizing ourselves with the philosophy and true religious principles that built the cathedral is necessary and beneficial. @benshapiro

'God' is defined as 'absolute Reality/Truth' by all world religions (as in "#GodIsTheTruth"). By what logic does it make sense to blame 'Reality/Truth' for the atrocities people commit in its name?

That’s it."

(given that all the world religions define 'God' as ‘absolute Reality/Truth’)

The real issue is that atheists don't understand the theological concept of 'hell', as they don't understand religion generally. Should religious people really have to accommodate their ignorance? Maybe give an 'offensive word' trigger warning? Ridiculous! #AtheistSnowflakes

A more-to-the-point inscription would have been:

Agreed.

But I also see no reason why any of *my* civil rights and freedoms should in any way be affected by *your* view of reality and the 'facts' *you* pretend to agree with.

Exploring whether scriptures could possibly be figurative texts, after years of treating them as literal texts (and dismissing them and religion) and embracing atheism.

He said "I could not make a more twisted religious system if I tried."

Actually, I couldn't come up with a more twisted #NaiveLiteral interpretation of figurative scripture if I tried.

Nonsense. If you know enough about the nature of reality, you know we live in an 'absolute Reality/Truth' ('God') required reality and universe.

Are you at all familiar with the concept of 'figurative language'? By your logic we would have to dismiss all poetry and most works of literature, starting with Shakespeare. #NaiveLiteralism #AtheistLogic #AtheistConfusion

[Absolutely True 🇬🇧 🇪🇺 @TrueAbsolutely]

@AtheistRepublic ·
Of course nobody 'will believe the Bible on judgment day' THE CHILDISH, NAIVE-LITERAL WAY YOU READ IT. If you had taken ANY TIME to read the Bible and seriously researched it yourself, you would have immediately recognized that it is a figurative text.

The Old Testament is as applicable as ever, just not to be interpreted in the childish, #NaiveLiteral way in which atheists love to read it, given that the Bible is a figurative text.

Given that the world religions define 'God' as 'absolute/ultimate Reality/Truth' (as in #GodIsTheTruth), Woody Allen effectively accuses 'Reality/Truth' (which is simply the totality of all there is) of 'cruelty' or 'incompetence'. Makes no sense whatsoever! #AtheistConfusion

... because it makes a pretty big difference whether you 'just grow up' limited to the default 'relative' worldview, or whether you discover that there is ALSO such a thing as 'absolute Reality/Truth' (or 'God').

@Uncle_Jebus ·
Nonsense. 'Heaven' is knowing/experiencing 'absolute freedom' that comes with the discovery of 'absolute Reality/Truth' (as distinct from our default 'relative' worldview), and is available to anyone who truly wants it—"you shall know the Truth & the Truth will set you free".
