All of these things are done by the police, with no intervention of the church, nor any church.

Wrong again. Laws in the United States are decided by the people for the people. The people are by and large Christian and certainly inspired by Christian morality. The Constitution was written by Christians with a Christian ethic in mind. It's all in your history books.

Please keep telling me how you're part of the deciding factor on who is guilty.

I didn't say I was the deciding factor. God is the deciding factor and He has given us His Holy Word - a message that does not change and is simple enough to comprehend even my four year old can know who God has judged guilty.

maybe "directly" harming others was a bad choice of words, but I never said anything about bank robbery. This is why there are laws.

Then please make a better choice of words. I cannot read your mind, nor would I want to.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Care to tell me which part YOU think I'm lying about?

No problem. You are so ingrained in your convictions (not) that you're afraid to tell us your real name.

Mr. Person??

Now there's a guy who is front and center and ready to yell from the mountains who he is and what he's about.

Chicken shit.

Not that it matters. We already know who you are because Jesus tells us everything.

When YOU are ready to be honest let me know and I will have Jesus change your screen name to your real one.

Me? My name is Deaner Davis and I'm a proud American from South Carolina. Who are you?

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Again with people not reading. I was clarifying the definition, and I stated I am an atheist, completely. I KNOW your idea of god does not exist because if he did, he would likely back-hand you all for the way you're twisting his words. The reason I do a good thing? because I believe in a better world. The reason I feel safe that others will do the same? because the police will punish them otherwise. We do not need religion to keep ourselves safe, and threat of an imaginary force doing things to you after you're already dead is a poor deterrent to a rapist or a murderer, who may or may not be christian themselves. Please, keep the threats coming, it just proves my point further.

The Bible is replete with demands that believers proselytize. You say we are twisting His Words by forcing religion on other people, but this just reveals your ignorance of the Bible, proving that atheism is the result of ignorance. From cover to cover the Bible demands that non-believers be punished, ostracized, or preached to.

So, how are we twisting His Word, friend?

Sadly, you need to compare the two. I don't think it's illegal to worship others, or even to refuse worship. it's not illegal to work on a sabbath, nor speak religious profanities, or even to commit adultery (though that will end in a divorce usually). as for holy word, that has been through several different printings, translations and the like already. It IS illegal to take away a person's privacy though, unless they have done something the public agrees is a threat to society. Here's a big hint, the people on this board are a bigger threat to the mental well being of the world than atheism in general

I would love to, but sadly I really don't want profanities and persecution to find it's way to my facebook or my door. Please tell Jesus to reveal my true name though, that would be fun to watch. I am quite certain you cannot, unless you just use the wonders of the internet, which isn't really too supernatural, as my real name can be found if people really tried.

YOU don't think. Why should anyone care what YOU think?

Why do you think Moses' people stoned the stranger who was gathering sticks on the Sabbath to death?

Numbers 15:32-36
32And while the children of Israel were in the wilderness, they found a man that gathered sticks upon the sabbath day. 33And they that found him gathering sticks brought him unto Moses and Aaron, and unto all the congregation. 34And they put him in ward, because it was not declared what should be done to him. 35And the LORD said unto Moses, The man shall be surely put to death: all the congregation shall stone him with stones without the camp. 36And all the congregation brought him without the camp, and stoned him with stones, and he died; as the LORD commanded Moses.

It's because God directly commanded it. Just because today we have people twisting scripture and making secular laws that forbid this doesn't mean God was mistaken.

because I'm pretty sure he tried to teach compassion and forgiveness, not hatred and fanaticism, but hey, if that's how you want to read it, go ahead. It's a free world. that's the difference between you and I. I don't care what the opinions of others are, nor their beliefs or even sexual preference, unless it directly influences me. want to try and register people and punish then for not doing things your way? Sorry, not going to just sit by without saying something about that. Do you know who Hitler was? he had sort of the same ideas, guess what happened to him.

As delightful as you've all been, I'm getting bored of arguing with scripture and brick walls who can't think for themselves. This shall be my last post. I just want to add that it's not just what I think, it's what the entire world thinks, it's what every logical person thinks. theres the geneva convention, and laws across the entirety of the world that prevent what you're trying to propose, so it will never happen. If anything, you're likely to get locked up for it, as several authorities will already be watching this forum, I'm sure of it. Good day ladies and gentlemen, enjoy suffering for going against everything your god taught you to work towards.

[Seriously...]

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength.’31 The second is this: ‘Love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no commandment greater than these.” Mark 12:30-31

Nothing quite says "I love you and forgive your sins" quite like rounding up all the atheist and branding them so that they can be subject to shunning and all manner of hatred. In the end, you're harming your own souls more than you'll be helping theirs. I'm sure that Hitler didn't think his little list would do any harm either.

Think for yourself.

There is only one authority coward; Jesus Christ of America. Go and tell your other authorities they can kiss my stinky ass. I don't bow to them. You do. And then you claim you are free.

You're an idiot.

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

I'm in complete agreement with Mr. Pearson. I do not force my beliefs on others, why should you try to force your beliefs on me? What happened to 'Love thy neighbor?'

If I'm evil or 'possessed by a demon' because I take the time to talk to people and get to know them personally regardless of beliefs, race, sexuality and numerous other factors then yeah I'm evil. You can't judge a book by its cover, but that seems to be what you guys are doing because it says so in the bible.

For example: I've known my closest friend since we were 12, (13 years) and he has recently come out as gay. When he told me NOTHING changed. He is still my closest friend, we still hang out all the time, the only difference is his sexual preference.

If that would have happened to one of you, what would you have done? Would you drop one of your closest friends because of something they could not help?

Jesus was a stickler for the Old Testament Law. You are just cherry picking a few verses about how Christians should look out for their neighbors (which Jesus defines as Good Samaritans using the parable of the Good Samaritan). Then you are ignoring a vast swathe of equally important information. It is not a matter of interpretation. The Bible is not that complicated. We are interpreting the whole thing literally. You are ignoring most of it. See what is going on here?

[Deaner]

Re: Atheists Should Be Registered Like Sex Offenders!

Think for yourself.

Why? Do you?

Sitting in your parents basement cuddled up with a book by YOUR god Richard Dawkins taking every word he says as if it were gold.

You couldn't think for yourself if your life depended on it; yet you are free.

WE are the ones who are free dim-wit. You see, we don't have to think. All our thinking is done for us and written down nice and neatly in a little book called "The Bible".

You are nothing but a follower of followers. Have fun sinner. I'm going to Church like all my other friends do.

Friend,

If Jesus isn't American then explain why America is the Greatest Country on Earth(r).
