I want to discuss these questions.
Quote: 1. Kent Hovind is a moron with fake degrees and a poor grasp of science.
Yes.
Quote: 2. There is definitely an objective moral quality to every action.
Not definitely.
Quote: 3. I don't know and you don't either, so shut up about it.
No. It's good to talk about things you don't have definitive answers to.
Quote: 4. I tear up bible tracts that I find in public places.
Sometimes.
Quote: 5. The only thing I believe is that what you believe is false.
No.
Quote: 6. I have started an argument with a religious member of my family.
Not really started. One of my relatives became jewish and we asked why and it sort of turned into a debate where he held that "nothing is real" attitude the whole time, which is the dumbest debate ever.
Quote: 7. I don't understand the religious at all. It's like they're not even human.
True.
Quote: 8. It's hard for me not to start conversations about religion.
It depends who I'm around.
Quote: 9. Who cares if there's a god? What I can see is more important.
No, not really. Reality is more important.
Quote: 10. If I hear, "Evolution is just a theory!" one more time, I'm going to scream.
I put true on this, because I agree with the sentiment.
Quote: 11. I have started or post often on an atheists-only website.
Not often.
Quote: 12. Jason Gastrich and logic are not well acquainted.
I don't know who that is.
Quote: 13. You cannot create something from nothing, there must be a God!
Um. What? No.
Quote: 14. I was hurt deeply by religious people and have never forgiven them.
Not really.
Quote: 15. Praying doesn't have anything to do with God.
It does, if you are a christian, because you pray to god that he will give you things.
Quote: 16. Everyone needs to relax about religion. It's not that important.
It's important in that it needs to be eradicated. However, if this statement is targeted at religious people, then it's true. Religious people need to stop being so religious.
Quote: 17. Even if I found out for sure that God was real, I wouldn't worship him!
Of course I would not worship. That I should worship a being just because it exists is a ridiculous proposition.
Quote: 18. I believe in the perfection of the human spirit, not God.
Uh. Whatever.
Quote: 19. Atheists will go to hell.
No. There is no such place.
Quote: 20. I am a member of an organized religion.
No.
Quote: 21. I know there isn't a god, but that doesn't stop me from being spiritual.
Whatever.
Quote: 22. If I experienced proof of a god, I would begin to believe.
Yes.
Quote: 23. Militant atheists are just as bad as religious fundamentalists.
No.
Quote: 24. I like debating religious people, but I tend to end up calling them names.
Sometimes.
Quote: 25. Publishing in a peer-reviewed magazine is one way to get my respect.
I guess so.
Quote: 26. I like to hedge my bets with regards to the afterlife.
No.
Quote: 27. Evolution is just a theory, it's never been proven.
False. Evolution has been observed.
Quote: 28. Christians suck! I hate Christians! Christianity should be illegal!
If had my druthers....
Quote: 29. I don't understand why religion is such a sensitive topic.
True. I don't, because I don't understand why people have religious beliefs.
Quote: 30. The invisible and the non-existent look very similar.
True.
Quote: 31. I don't have a problem with religion as long as it's not shoved down my throat.
False
Quote: 32. Don't preach to me about religion... or about anything, really.
True. Preaching is not a discussion.
Quote: 33. The burden of proof lies with the believer, not the non-believer.
True.
Quote: 34. God doesn't exist? Fine. God does exist? Fine.
I put false. I would be horrified to discover that there were a god.
Quote: 35. The universe is definitely structured.
I put false because I'm not sure if it's definitely structured. But I guess it appears to be.
Quote: 36. I will debate the religious anytime, anyplace.
Not really. If I'm not in the mood, they have to really press me.
Quote: 37. I meditate to relax and seek peace.
No. Sometimes I sit around and do nothing. If you wanna call that meditating, then you're dumb.
Quote: 38. Why does anyone still believe in God? They're just stupid!
I put true on this because it seemed to express how I feel after having dealt with christians for an extended period of time.
Quote: 39. I can't possibly know for sure that there is no god so I won't say that.
I put false because, by the only definition of god that I would accept, a god cannot exist.
Quote: 40. I enjoy immersing myself in natural beauty, wherever I find it.
I put the middle one on this because it's not something I really think about a lot. I am known to express it when something pleases me, but I don't usually go crazy over it.
Quote: 41. Unfalsifiable hypotheses are worthless.
I put false on this one, because sometimes ideas are useful, even if they are not falsifiable.
Quote: 42. Organized religion is the worst thing that has ever happened to the world!
I don't know if it is the worst, but it is really bad, so I put true on this one.

Not sure I agree with this... I love to verbally fight but I don't think i'd fit militant atheist.
And I don't see why scientific atheist was so far down the line, seeing as I'm a big science person.
"Theist-- 0%"
How suprising. rofl
HOwever...
Who are Kent Hovnid and Jason Gastrich?
I've never heard of them. Ever.

Hmmmm.... Idunno. My scientific background is still pretty limited. I think I'm mostly a mix of those top four. |
