I've come to like Twitter better than Facebook. I don't know why, I just do. I used to think it was because there was less drama on Twitter. Then I realized, there's the same amount of drama, I just don't know these people personally, so I pay it much mind. Up until the other day. I read a blog that someone posted about people that are Atheists end up with brain damage. Which is just stupid and arrogant. They said that we (Atheist) have no morals. I fail to see how this is correct.
How does our beliefs cause us to have brain damage or to loose our morals? It doesn't. In case you haven't realized this, but everyone is born an Atheist. We are brain washed as kids into picking the religion of our parents. Some people are happy with this, but there are some who are not. We decided to leave the religion of our parents and make our life choices based solely on if it's the right thing to do or not. One doesn't have to a person of religion to know right from wrong.
I find it wrong that homosexuals aren't able to marry the person they love. I find it wrong that Christians dehumanize them because of something they are born with. I find it wrong that the different religions discriminate against other religions. I find it wrong to kill, to steal, to discriminate, and to insult someone because they believe something I do not.
Christians follow a book that has of those things in it and their god is telling them to do these things to others. They don't question if it's right or wrong, they simply obey. Like sheep they follow with no doubt, all because people claim that this book is the word of their god. There is a lot of things I have a problem with concerning religion, but for someone of a religion to say that we (Atheist) have something wrong with our morals and our brain is just plain stupid.
We do not have a religion telling us how to behave, what to think, and how to handle someone that doesn't believe what we do. We make sound moral decisions everyday, without the fear of burning in hell for not believing in a god. But because of the lack of evidence to show that there is a god, we are the ones that have something wrong with us. We look for proof, we use reason, and common sense to help us get through life. We don't sit on butts all day with drool rolling down our faces.
I have been called many names and been insulted because of what I believe on Twitter and I have paid them no mind. Why? Because it only proves that Christians are not better than Atheists. They let their anger get the better of them and all of their holier than thou preaches go out the door. You want us to believe that your god is a loving god and that you follow in his foot steps. Well, you are following in his footsteps, but your actions are not loving or fair.
