Atheist

Wednesday, October 18, 2006 ATHEIST If I am a caste Hindu I would like to be in the fold.If I am a Dalit I would rather embrace Christianity to get some dignity.Mother Teresa can be found only in this religion..I am too indisciplined to become a muslim.I am not fully vegetarian so Jainism is ruled out.Budhdhism has become a political religion.Jew, Parsi or Sikhism I am not that familiar with.I prefer to be an atheist and watch the drama. 11:30:21 AM Posted By chandra shant Comments (9) Uncategorized Comments capcom Wednesday, October 18, 2006 12:15:44 PM Atheism as pracised by communists or capitalists? justreason7 Wednesday, October 18, 2006 12:27:23 PM Communists are atheists as a matter of principle Some ordinary folks like me are atheists by choice. zakir_electrical Wednesday, October 18, 2006 1:20:04 PM Just wanted to inform that Communists WERE atheists.Present day versions of the communists have eroded ALL values be it principle OR peripheral. With reference to Bengal the saying stands apt : Power Corrupts absolute power corrupts absolutely. ramhyd Wednesday, October 18, 2006 1:42:11 PM The notion is that a theist is a believer in God and an atheist, a non-believer. My contention is that 99.9999% of human beings do not KNOW GOD. My definition is that a theist is one who knows God and an atheist, one who does not. Therefore, there is no question of principle, conviction or choice in anyone being an atheist. Almost all are, by default. srihari Wednesday, October 18, 2006 2:54:50 PM cut this atheist and a theist topic for a moment.time has come where lots of healing is required for all of us.how on earth can one be so self- centred even ignoring the other man's pain?we all need each other in some way or the other.the almighty dwells in your heart.you reap what you sow ultimately?good begets good bad begets bad.it is as simple as that. opinionblogs Wednesday, October 18, 2006 10:38:23 PM Good blog chethan...No relegion better than humanity...Seems all have forgotten that! opinionblogs Wednesday, October 18, 2006 10:39:11 PM Oops..I meant chandra...naam likne mein galti ho gayi...sorry bhai. kamalakar Wednesday, October 18, 2006 10:58:28 PM Very few persons are atheists;as it requires more willpower,totally independent mind;taking responsibility for our own decisions and own conditiond. Fewer persons remain atheists till end, K. Venugopal Thursday, October 19, 2006 10:31:25 PM Atheists are folks who hear theists talk about God and say, I don't believe the God you talk about exists. Such atheists are believers of a different kind (that there is no God). If someone has come to the conclusion not as a reaction to others’ beliefs but upon his own persistent search and enquiry, then that person is to be sought out - he is no less then a Buddha. Agnostics are a more honest lot. They simply say they don't know whether there is a God or not.
