5 Things That Suck About Atheists


     Awhile back I wrote a quick little rant style piece about Atheism. I didn't spend a lot of time on it but I suppose it was an OK piece. Put it this way, I'm not ashamed of it, but it also wasn't my favorite piece I ever wrote. It is however one of the most popular articles of all time here at Laughing at Life 2 and it also has the most comments of any post ever by far. I don't know why but people liked it. 
     I have to say that the Atheism posts popularity really surprised me and for a couple different reasons. First, like I already said it wasn't a very well crafted piece. It started out as a bit idea that I could never figure out how to pull off but I liked it enough to want it to get seen. I didn't expect it to take off like it did. The second thing that surprised me was the comments. Not just the volume of the comments but also the negativity and judgemental hate in them.
     So, here's the thing, people liked the Atheism post, the Atheism post got a lot of people talking, I like people, hits, and talking so I figured why not do another post about atheism where I'm actually trying a little harder to make actual points? Since I liked my idea I went ahead and started to put together a brand new post about Atheism and Atheists and you are reading that post right now. I hope you enjoy it and I also hope that even if you don't that you do still comment if only to help me better prove the points I am already going to make here in this piece.

1. Atheists tend to be condescending, and pretentious

     I joked in that original piece that Atheism was the religion for geniuses and I said that because if you listen to their propaganda or people like their self-appointed spokesmen Neil DeGrasse
Tyson speak you will see that they are very pretentious and condescending towards people of faith. Atheists seem to all believe two things at the start of every conversation that they have about religion. First, they believe going in that they are right, and the second thing that they believe is that you are wrong. You're not just wrong you're stupid too. You can see it in their smug faces and their, 'I'm a genius', tone of voice.
     That is what is so maddening to me about Atheists. I hate anyone that treats people like they are stupid, but to treat someone like they are stupid just for having faith when you know for a fact that while you may not believe in God you actually cannot prove he doesn't exist either. So while I believe that it's perfectly fine to disagree with me it isn't OK however to assume or pretend that you are smarter than me just because you've decided that God isn't real.

Neil Degrasse Tyson Is An Arrogant Ass

     The more I see of Neil Degrasse Tyson the less I like the man. What bothers me about a guy like Neil Degrasse Tyson is his arrogance. I don't deny him his belief that God doesn't exist and that it is ridiculous to think that he does. He can believe whatever he wants. I do however take issue with him claiming that it is proven that God doesn't exist and even laughing in the faces of people who believe otherwise. I take issue with that behavior for two reasons. Reason one would be that it is just downright rude not to mention unprofessional and childish behavior especially from such an educated man. The second reason  I take issue with his claims is because there is not any proof that God doesn't exist and claiming that it does quite frankly makes him look idiotic.

     I can see the comment section for this piece now, "Your a moron Shawn, don't you even know about science"? So yes, just to get it out of the way up front, I have heard of science. I actually really love science. I excelled in the subject all throughout school and have continued to pursue knowledge about different discoveries and what not all along my life. I like to learn, I'm a nerd. I have yet to learn about any discovery or scientific revelation that proves for a fact that God doesn't exist. To claim that there is solid proof when there is none makes him look absolutely ridiculous. He looks like some mad raving loon sometimes as he makes his outrages statements and claims or degrades someone publicly whose views and beliefs differ from his own.

     The frustrating thing about this little problem of mine with Neil Degrasse Tyson is that he is obviously an extremely smart and well educated man which makes his condescending behavior all the more confusing. He should know better. He has to see that it is rude not to mention downright mean to act that way. I don't expect him to believe me that his views are wrong nor am I trying to change his views. I just feel that a man of his intelligence should be able to better express himself and also know when not to express himself.

Atheism, a sarcastic view of this anti-religion, religion.

     God was with me today and to thank him for his guidance I'd like to re-share an old post from our first blog Laughing at Life about Atheists.  Thanks for being there for me today God and to all who love to laugh enjoy...

Atheism, the religion for geniuses.
 
    
     That's what its supposed to be right? Isn't that what they they say? Do they say that or do they just claim Christians are idiots? Well, I wish I was smart enough to believe in nothing. But I'm just not as smart as them. And you know what...That's perfectly OK with me.
They say us Christians are stupid, delusional, and downright crazy for believing in what they call...'An invisible man that lives in the sky'. Because God knows that believing that all this just happened on its own isn't crazy at all. Nope, That makes perfect sense.
     Let's see here, there was a Big Bang millions of years ago and then millions of events creating life lined up perfectly all on their own and formed everything alive and all you see around you.  And that's not all, at least one planet in all that random but miraculously eventful, chaos just happened to turn out perfectly suited for life. But wait, it gets better, because also on that very planet life just happened to form in hundreds of species on land and water accidentally and all on its own. Then it just evolved from microscopic organisms into all of the species of life that we have on the earth today including us Humans, who evolved from monkeys believe it or not.
