I can see your future and the wrath of god is right around the corner. I see you buying a coffee without a java jacket and you burning your hand. You're fucked dude.

How many people do you think actually believe in this shit?
And how come they are too afraid to come out and state their ridiculous argument?

I believe that, and its my right to. If we have indeed been created and life is a test, those social misfits are going to fucking burn. I have no problem with that at all. They clearly know right from wrong, yet choose to indulge in filth. They get what they deserve.

is it wrong that I immediately thought of this after I saw the title?

Religious in poison to modern civilized man.

What makes people civilized. Free will???

Name one of the 10 commandments that you object to and why it is harmful to society?

Just because someone can't articulate the problems with those issues doesn't reflect on God. It is that person's intellect that is wrong. I've heard many idiots try to explain global warming because it was hot that day. regardless of their inability to articulate it doesn't make global warming false.

Liberalism is the darknight that rides the white horse. It means well but in the long run will be very harmful and destructive.

I agree. And trouble in the world does tend to hit "Godless" areas harder and more frequently.

I dont know all about that Wrath of God stuff, I'm a numbers person and simply notice that more trouble, evil and natural disasters happen in areas of the world that don't believe in anything.

no that is the exact opposite. and the chance occurrences of natural disasters can happen anywhere thats not a good gauge of who or where god likes and dislikes.

if you take a look at crime, health, education and other humanitarian issues. you are much better off in a more secular society. according to the UN and gallop polls.

the only 2 exceptions are ireland whose majority are religious and doing well and vietnam whose majority are non-religious and are poor.

the rest such as sweden, denmark, norway, japan, and finland enjoy a higher standard of living whilst having a high percentage of atheism/agnosticism.

If you are "numbers person" then maybe atheism is your best bet. CoB is right and here's some stats to back it. http://www.pitzer.edu/academics/facu...n/atheism.html

Wrath of God?
You mean like the boxing day tsunami? Or the earthquakes that only seem to occur in muslim countries? Or the fact that the average lifespan of a homosexual man is substantially lower than straight men? Any of those? I could go on.

Wrath of god? Nah, never...........

What's funny is that if this whole wrath of god shit was true, don't you think he would've unleashed he wrath a few thousand years ago (even before his son arrived on the scene), when all things mentioned FIRST started going down?
