the jewish-christian-islamic religion is so oppresive, like who the hell came up with this crap, and you most be moronic to adhere to this crap, like why let your life be ruled by books, that have no rational arguement to them.
these religions do not promotwe freedom or earthy happiness so like what the heck is the point, to live?
no empowerment.

Don't be so quick to dismiss religion as humbug, if you live in the West you were brought up with a distilled version of judeo-christian values.
(I am also an atheist)

im not an athiest per se, i have respect for taoism, by that i mean i had a phase. But it never tried to limit you. taoism can be interpreted as saying be as bad as you want cause someone will be correspondinly good, and balance will be restored.
and ill admit, for a monotheist religion, the sufis strain of islam is alright no organized indoctrination per se.

You guys are total idiots. mostly R-R. If those religions are the three most widely accepted religions (thinking that catholocism is the same as christianity), than what makes you so sure that you are smarter than the billions of believers world wide?!?!

You are lazy.Doing the right things in life is often very hard. Doing the wrong things is often very easy.
IMO God gave us our freedom and happiness. He also gave us our sorrows. He empowers us to use him as guide to get through anything.

You are just prejudice. I would love to know how I'm currently oppressed.
Hitler was appointed Chancellor after getting only 37% of the vote. And when he was voted in it was because of the Nazi thugs who used violence and threats.
No it's not. No one reasonable is saying that you have to believe in religion and that your wrong not to. Maybe a few televangelists but in the US you can believe whatever you want.
Your right. You don't need to believe in God to know right from wrong. I don't need people to tell me what to believe and I don't need people telling me what I shouldn't believe in.
