As Siddhartha Gautama once asked: Wrong-doing arises from mind, if mind is changed can wrong-doing remain?

I believe God is made-up and is not real, but if it gets people to be good then it does not matter to me.

after five there might be a problem  

stupid livewire ad. There's no god, stop trying to convert all of them damn atheists



how can you be so sure?!!!
suppose that what you said is right(there is no god).so the believers are going to lose after death?
but in other hand what will happen if they are right? nothing but hell.
You can make your choice wisely either bellive in god,or stay hopeless in this life without knowing where you came from, where are you going to or why are you in this life.

well, first of all that was a joke.

However, I would like to point out that atheism is the lack of belief in a god or gods, and nothing else.

second of all, no matter what anyone says no one knows where we came from, or where we're going. I guess I should ask "how can you be so sure?". If you find a religious myth to be satysfying then good for you.

I'm totally self-assured, self-confident and self-aware. But I don't make topics that poke fun at those who I disagree with or who may disagree with me.

I never contested this.


The only claims I make are those of my belief. It doesn't bother me that you may disagree. What bothers me is that so many who do disagree, feel it makes them superior and me (and/or those who believe as I do), inferior. It does not make them right or even probably right.

Your beliefs are unsupported and contrary to the laws of physics which have never been observed to falter. This makes them astounding unlikely and inferior in the rational sense.

You may be a better or worse person than the average non-believer, and you may be more or less rational in other areas, but here you are indubitably less rational and thus fair game for a little mocking.


When you find that there is empirical evidence for everything you believe, then you can look down on those of faith. However, at that point you'll probably find you have lost all human qualities and values.
 
Could you cite a probable example of an unjustified belief I might hold?


If the only reason you suppress your laughter is because of social conditioning, please see a therapist to help you over that.

You believe a man can rot in a cave for three days and rise from the dead, subsequently ascending, body and soul, into Heaven. That is sillier, and funnier in its way, than a grown man believing in unicorns.

I don't know that much about your beliefs. But, are you saying everything you believe is backed by empirical evidence? That you take absolutely nothing on faith?
