God or no God?
There is no solid evidence for either case (God or no God). It all comes down to intelligence.
There is, however, proof that shows religion to be detrimental to the world:
- The denial of scientific proofs.
- The lack of concern for the physical world.
- The inquisition.
- 9/11
- Praying for outcomes or materials instead of working for them, a.k.a. laziness.
... These are just a few of the many.
Any intelligent being knows what the correct stance to take is. Might I add that studies have proven religious people to be of a lower IQ than those of skeptics...

...As we all should eat
"And the woman said to the serpent, 'We may eat of the fruit of the trees of the garden; but God said, 'You shall not eat of the fruit of the tree which is in the midst of the garden, neither shall you touch it, lest you die.' But the serpent said to the woman, 'You will not die. For God knows that when you eat of it your eyes will be opened, and you will be like God, knowing good and evil.' So when the woman saw that the tree was good for food, and that it was a delight to the eyes, and that the tree was to be desired to make one wise, she took of its fruit and ate; and she also gave some to her husband, and he ate."
-Genesis 3:2-6
Why would 'God' create this fruit in the first place?
Only an idiot would take the words of the Bible as literal fact. Have you ever thought that the primitive minds that created the Bible had not the knowledge we have today? Had not the proper words to describe? Had not the intelligence?
For all we know, God is an extraterrestrial.
It takes a God to create a God. Divine intelligence cannot just 'POOF' into existence. If there were a god, IT (not necessarily HE) would be a product of evolution... Thus the God of the 'Holy Bible' is not what you think IT is. Do I need also mention that the Bible plagiarizes off of several other religious texts from much earlier in time, many of which use the term 'Gods,' not 'God.'
Would not any advanced being be revered as a god to a primitive mind? A 'Cargo Cult' is the term for it:
"Cargo Cult is the trope when a group of people worship an object as Gods or deities. This usually happens either because of its advanced technology, or a coincidental resemblance to figures in the local religion.
The trope name comes from the documented effect that World War II military forces had upon natives of various South Pacific islands. Sixty years after the war, some tribes in Vanuatu are still building elaborate fake airfields and praying to idols shaped like DC-3 cargo planes.
There is a mythical character they call 'John Frum', who they believe to be the source or harbinger of their prosperity (some anthropologists think this may have been the result of American soldiers introducing themselves as 'John, from [America]'). Interestingly, it has helped prevent many older traditions of the islanders being wiped out by conversion to Christianity."
(Taken from http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/CargoCult).
...Technically, most religion is a 'Cargo Cult.'
I suggest you (Christians etc.) stop being so naive and try to help humanity PROGRESS, not hinder evolution/life and unconsciously set forth an extinction level event.
It is most likely too late for humanity to change and try to undo the damage done, i.e. pollution, overpopulation and religion/lies. It would take an aeon alone to purge the world of idiots. We don't have that much time. Humanities salvation is systematic genocide... Highly unlikely though. The point is, HAVE SOME DIGNITY and STRIVE TO BE MORE THAN WHAT YOU ARE.

Ancient Aliens (Reptilian Theory)
Religion supposedly began with polytheism, why do you think? Consider Puma Punku, the Pyramids, the moai and Stonehenge, among the most popular. Either there were beings that visited our planet or beings that evolved and left this planet, it's not at all hard to believe unless you have been programmed (like the majority of humankind) to believe that 'aliens' are nonsense. Think of the Troodon, known to be the brainiest of all Dinosaurs. Now think about millions and millions of years of evolution and the uncertainty of what caused the 'extinction' of the Dinosaurs. If Dinosaurs were all truly extinct then explain certain exceptions such as the Crocodile... Explain why we are told that Dinosaurs evolved into birds (why wouldn't evolution play the right cards?). Some Dinosaurs must have survived in order to 'evolve' right?
It is not at all hard to believe in other lifeforms if you can truly comprehend aeons upon aeons and the vastness of space.
Back to Polytheism... The witnessing of superior lifeforms on primitive minds... The beginning of the telephone game (a.k.a Chinese whispers among others) to the joke religion is now, has been and always will be.

No 'God'
I will never believe in 'God.' That's guaranteed. I know there is no 'God.' Life may be too hard for a lot of people to understand, however I am not part of the unintelligent majority.
I often find it's pointless to try and force logic on people when it comes to 'God.' I mean, the crap was forced into your brain ever since it was young and mouldable... Of coarse most will deny.
Let's entertain the popular 'belief' in 'God;' Even if 'he' existed, I would praise the Lord of the Depths, for an eternity in Heaven would be Hell knowing that so many were suffering eternally (unjustly) in the bowels of Tartarus. So what is true evil? Maybe a little study, observation, experimentation and thought would help overcome the combination of gullibility and ignorance? But then again, it also takes bravery and intelligence.
This world is fabricated in illusion. God/Jesus is Santa Clause for adults, based on allegorical religious propaganda. The 'existence of God' does not have to be proved. However, the non-existence of 'God' does have to be proved, it is the next step of our evolutionary path. Look at what religion is doing to this world.

All Life Is As One
It is my idea (one of them) that all life has a linked form of subconsciousness, I call it an omnisubconsciousness. It is everything, it is nothing. It is one, it is many. It is ever learning, an unconscious consciousness trying to define itself. We are merely vessels. This 'omnisubconsciousness' is not to be mistaken with the word 'god.' God is an outcome, neither then nor now... The final step of evolution, not the beginning.
So why is humanity destroying itself? We are in the teenage years, so to say, of omnisubconsciousness. Sadly, like an ill-educated and reckless teen, we may die before we mature. Thus the cycle continues. Thus the life of this humanity is expendable. Life is meaningful yet fruitless. What a paradoxal universe eh?

Systematic Genocide
I believe all unintelligent people should be killed.
Why? Because people are hindering and destroying this world, i.e. pollution and overpopulation. They think not of their actions and the future, only of themselves. Religion is the cause of this.
Belief in an afterlife leaves people to care less about real life in general. If you believe in a realm of bliss after death, why try so hard to preserve the world?
Also, the religious believe that 'God' will save the world. In another view this does not seem so crazy (but regardless, we should not assume)... What IF intelligent beings from another world, or of an earlier time in this world, came to help us?
I don't consider myself inhumane, amazingly enough I am regarded as 'really nice' (in most cases). I just believe approximately 90% of the human population should fall to systematic genocide.
It is inhumane to not think of the future as a whole. Metaphorically speaking; when gardening, it is necessary to weed to ensure the overall health of the garden. You feel no sorrow for killing the weeds because they are not an intelligent form of life.

Famous Quotes
Quotes from THOMAS JEFFERSON;
"Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on man."
"Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."
"I do not find in orthodox Christianity one redeeming feature."
"Religions are all alike - founded upon fables and mythologies."
"Millions of innocent men, women, and children, since the introduction of Christianity, have been burned, tortured, fined, and imprisoned, yet we have not advanced one inch toward uniformity. What has been the effect of coercion? To make one half of the world fools and the other half hypocrites." [Notes on Virginia]
"History, I believe, furnishes no example of a priest-ridden people maintaining a free civil government. This marks the lowest grade of ignorance of which their civil as well as religious leaders will always avail themselves for their own purposes" [Letter to von Humboldt, 1813].
"The day will come when the mystical generation of Jesus, by the Supreme Being as His father, in the womb of a virgin will be classed with the fable of the generation of Minerva in the brain of Jupiter." [Letter to John Adams, April 11, 1823]
"In every country and in every age, the priest has been hostile to liberty. He is always in alliance with the despot, abetting his abuses in return for protection to his own" [Letter to H. Spafford, 1814].
Quotes from JAMES MADISON;
"During almost fifteen centuries has the legal establishment of Christianity been on trial. What has been its fruits? More or less, in all places, pride and indolence in the clergy; ignorance and servility in the laity; in both, superstition, bigotry, and persecution."
"In no instance have . . . the churches been guardians of the liberties of the people."
"Religious bondage shackles and debilitates the mind and unfits it for every noble enterprise." [April 1, 1774]

"This would be the best of all possible worlds, if there were no religion in it." [in a letter to Thomas Jefferson]
"The divinity of Jesus is made a convenient cover for absurdity."
"The government of the United States is not, in any sense, founded on the Christian religion."
"Let the human mind loose. It must be loose. It will be loose. Superstition and dogmatism cannot confine it."
"But how has it happened that millions of fables, tales, legends, have been blended with both Jewish and Christian revelation that have made them the most bloody religion that ever existed."
"Have you considered that system of holy lies and pious frauds that has raged and triumphed for 1500 years."
"The question before the human race is, whether the God of nature shall govern the world by his own laws, or whether priests and kings shall rule it by fictitious miracles."
Quotes from ABRAHAM LINCOLN;
"My earlier views of the unsoundness of the Christian scheme of salvation and the human origin of the scriptures have become clearer and stronger with advancing years, and I see no reason for thinking I shall ever change them."
"You can fool some of the people all of the time, and all of the people some of the time, but you can not fool all of the people all of the time."
Quote from KARL MARX;

"It ain't the parts of the Bible that I can't understand that bother me, it is the parts that I do understand."
"Religion consists in a set of things which the average man thinks he believes and wishes he was certain of."
"There is no other life; life itself is only a vision and a dream for nothing exists but space and you. If there was an all-powerful God, he would have made all good, and no bad." [Mark Twain in Eruption]
"Our Bible reveals to us the character of our god with minute and remorseless exactness... It is perhaps the most damnatory biography that exists in print anywhere. It makes Nero an angel of light and leading by contrast" [Reflections on Religion, 1906]
"[The Bible is] a mass of fables and traditions, mere mythology." ["Mark Twain and the Bible"]
"Man is a marvelous curiosity ... he thinks he is the Creator's pet ... he even believes the Creator loves him; has a passion for him; sits up nights to admire him; yes and watch over him and keep him out of trouble. He prays to him and thinks He listens. Isn't it a quaint idea." [Letters from the Earth]
"If there is a God, he is a malign thug."

[Autobiography of Mark Twain by Samuel Clemens]
Quotes from THOMAS EDISON;
"I have never seen the slightest scientific proof of the religious ideas of heaven and hell, of future life for individuals, or of a personal God."
"I do not believe that any type of religion should ever be introduced into the public schools of the United States."
"So far as religion of the day is concerned, it is a damned fake... Religion is all bunk."
Quotes from SIGMUND FREUD;
"It would be very nice if there were a God who created the world and was a benevolent providence, and if there were a moral order in the universe and an after-life; but it is a very striking fact that all this is exactly as we are bound to wish it to be."

"The whole thing is so patently infantile, so foreign to reality, that to anyone with a friendly attitude to humanity it is painful to think that the great majority of mortals will never be able to rise above this view of life."
Quotes from GEORGE BENARD SHAW;
"The fact that a believer is happier than a skeptic is no more to the point than the fact that a drunken man is happier than a sober one."
"No man ever believes that the Bible means what it says; he is always convinced that it says what he means."
Quote from FRANK LLOYD WRIGHT;
"I believe in God, only I spell it Nature."
Quotes from ALBERT EINSTEIN;
"I have never talked to a Jesuit prest in my life. I am astonished by the audacity to tell such lies about me. From the viewpoint of a Jesuit priest I am, of course, and have always been an atheist."
"I have repeatedly said that in my opinion the idea of a personal God is a childlike one."
"It was, of course, a lie what you read about my religious convictions, a lie which is being systematically repeated. I do not believe in a personal God and I have never denied this but have expressed it clearly. If something is in me which can be called religious then it is the unbounded admiration for the structure of the world so far as our science can reveal it." [From a letter Einstein wrote in English, dated 24 March 1954. It is included in Albert Einstein: The Human Side, edited by Helen Dukas and Banesh Hoffman, published by Princeton University Press.
"If this being is omnipotent, then every occurrence, including every human action, every human thought, and every human feeling and aspiration is also His work; how is it possible to think of holding men responsible for their deeds and thoughts before such an almighty Being? In giving out punishment and rewards He would to a certain extent be passing judgment on Himself. How can this be combined with the goodness and righteousness ascribed to Him?" [Albert Einstein, Out of My Later Years (New York: Philosophical Library, 1950), p. 27.]
"During the youthful period of mankind's spiritual evolution, human fantasy created gods in man's own image who, by the operations of their will were supposed to determine, or at any rate influence, the phenomenal world... The idea of God in the religions taught at present is a sublimation of that old conception of the gods. Its anthropomorphic character is shown, for instance, by the fact that men appeal to the Divine Being in prayers and plead for the fulfillment of their wishes... In their struggle for the ethical good, teachers of religion must have the stature to give up the doctrine of a personal God, that is, give up that source of fear and hope which in the past placed such vase power in the hands of priests." [Albert Einstein, reported in Science, Philosophy and Religion: A Symposium, edited by L. Bryson and L. Finkelstein. Quoted in: 2000 Years of Disbelief. by James Haught]
"Thus I came...to a deep religiosity, which, however, reached an abrupt end at the age of 12. Through the reading of popular scientific books I soon reached a conviction that much in the stories of the Bible could not be true....Suspicion against every kind of authority grew out of this experience...an attitude which has never left me." [The Quotable Einstein]
Quote from ERNEST HEMINGWAY;
"All thinking men are atheists." [A Farewell to Arms]
Quotes from ISSAC ASIMOV;
"I am an atheist, out and out. It took me a long time to say it. I've been an atheist for years and years, but somehow I felt it was intellectually unrespectable to say that one is an atheist, because it assumed knowledge that one didn't have. Somehow it was better to say one was a humanist or agnostic. I don't have the evidence to prove that God doesn't exist, but I so strongly suspect that he doesn't that I don't want to waste my time."
"Creationists make it sound like a 'theory' is something you dreamt up after being drunk all night."
Quotes from GENE RODDENBERRY;
"I condemn false prophets, I condemn the effort to take away the power of rational decision, to drain people of their free will--and a hell of a lot of money in the bargain. Religions vary in their degree of idiocy, but I reject them all. For most people, religion is nothing more than a substitute for a malfunctioning brain."
"We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes."
"Christianity is the most perverted system that ever shone on man."
"Question with boldness even the existence of God; because, if there be one, he must more approve of the homage of reason than that of blindfolded fear."

"We must question the story logic of having an all-knowing all-powerful God, who creates faulty Humans, and then blames them for his own mistakes."
The True Devil
Have you Christians ever thought about why you believe what you do?
Have you Christians ever thought about how much blood has been shed in the name of God?
The Devil... Greedy, prideful, envious. Always playing games and trying to corrupt humanity. Right? What if your God is actually the Devil? Why would God need several different religious books to control the masses?
Satan... The adversary of God. The accuser. Any 'being' to stand up against a sadistic, controlling and fraudulent 'being' is a true saint. Satan being the one to burn in hell for eternity with the sinners and unbelievers, we are ALL sinners! Satan makes Jesus look insignificant when it comes to martyrdom.
God represses humanity. God represses freedom. God represses intelligence. God represses progress. God represses thought. God represses the need to achieve. God destroys the world.
How can you debunk an Atheist? That's like trying to disprove proof.
Religion is destroying the world. Most theologians don't care about the very real problem of pollution and overpopulation. Denial of reality seems to be the concept behind your God, or should I say Devil. Have you thought about the future? Have you thought about our children's children's children, or even our children's children? Dare say children? Does it matter to you that you are killing the future??? Killing all life on Earth?
Abortion is just a mere sacrifice needed to avoid a population crash. Controlling how many babies you pop out is another. I don't see why everyone is so selfish. Oh, and wouldn't the aborted baby go straight to (your) Heaven? And be revered as a Saint? Much worth the sacrifice don't you think?
Christianity is based off of other religion, there is much proof to this. Religion falls back to polytheism... Have you ever thought that the term 'god' meant something totally different in ancient times? Have you ever thought about what the true meaning is behind your allegorical religious texts?
Have you ever truly thought at all???
How can you deny proof?
How can you deny life?
Such a hollow and insignificant shell you people are.
Devil-worshipers!
I hope you enjoyed this rant. It's doubtful that you Christians actually put any THOUGHT into my words. But if you did, and if you have read this far... It's a miracle!
