People who bash the biblical worldview but can't defend the logical conclusion of their own worldview...

Happy to correct you, Jim. First, I'm not an atheist. You may be confusing atheism with agnosticism. Second, you seem to be assuming that your god is required for people to have a conscience or morality. But he is not. So, instead of embracing the theological dogma you were told is Truth, why not open your mind to the possibility that you god made you to question the origin and nature of reality? Or do you think that neither of you are secure enough in yourselves for that to be so?

*your*

First, I don't know if you are throwing out a red herring trying to get me to defend my use of words and define terms OR if you are honestly confused by the definitions of those terms and are suggesting that I am the one who is wrong in my use of that term.

"But he is not" is an assertion without an argument to back it up. From the foundation of the worldview that I mentioned in the meme (evolutionary based atheism) one cannot account for the conscience and morality of varying people groups across different cultures without going outside of their worldview and borrowing from another. The worldviews that they borrow from are theistic in nature and it is usually the biblical Christian worldview even from the atheists and unbelievers not in the West. If you want to argue from the foundation of some other worldview for conscience and morality, please do so and if I can I will take it apart and show how futile it is.

"The theological dogma you were told is Truth," is hasty generalization because I wasn't raised religious and spent the majority of my life as a God and religion hating atheist. You assume that I did not study these topics before drawing my conclusions.

and by the way, you're wrong

Still... since when did God = Justice? Those who don't love him back are forced to burn in Hell for eternity. That's not love, it's blackmail.

I don't know if you are a smoker or not, but let me throw this scenario at you. Lets say you don't smoke and that you don't allow smoking in your house. A stranger walk up to your house, knocks on your door, says they want to come in because they need help, and they are smoking. You want to see if you can help them, but are you going to let them in while they are smoking or are you going to ask them to put it out first? To make this go faster instead of doing multiple replies here, let me just keep going. Lets say you ask them to put it out, they do, so you let them in. You start talking for a little while, all of a sudden they light up another cigarette. You remind them there is no smoking allowed in your house, they say they forgot and just did it out of habit so they put it out and you continue the conversation. A little bit later, they light up another one. Here is the question I want to pose to you that I want you to answer. How many times are you going to tell them they are not allowed to smoke in your home before you kick them out and change your mind about helping them? If you kick them out and refuse to help them, are you still showing them love, or can it be viewed that you are only willing to help them if they follow your rules?

Another question for you, is loving someone who first loved you and even sacrificed themselves to save you really that much to ask for? Considering no other religious deity has this as their only requirement but requires you to do so much more to get accepted into their heaven, I really see this as a small price to pay. However it may be too much to pay for some people because they want to be able to do whatever they want without any consequences, and what they want to do may go against God, so really they can only love themselves.

I could have enjoyed a delicious sandwich instead of reading this tripe.
I want my time back.
