Convo about anti-feminism on an atheist community

[ArgusEyes]

Religion also ties itself to a god or gods, you and I both took the good lessons and dropped the bad ones so what is the problem?

Right, and you used a sense of morality that is apart from religion to do that. People pick and choose what they want to believe from the bible. The true problem with religion comes from people who have a fundemental adherance to that religion. People who treat their religious stories as allegorical and take only the good bits from the bible are not a problem.

There is a choice to break away from religion and you can still live in relative peace. With feminism you can break away but still fall under the influence of it because feminism is 100% dependant on misinformation and government to enforce it's illogical conclusions.

I would like to say this: Anyone who insults atheism based on morals should know that if someone doesn't already know that killing without cause is wrong, they most certainly won't learn it by reading the bible, especially if they read Judges.

I love that site

Morals are both genetic and learned. As a newborn, once you get a scraped knee, you know that other people feel the same way when they scrape their knee. You think that if you did that to someone else, they may not like you for it and that won't be good in the future. Unless you hate the guy, chances are you won't try to hurt them.

Don't get me wrong, religion has it's purpose but BS is BS after all.

How is killing with a cause right?

"with a cause" is very different to "with cause"

I guess the stereotype is that feminists hang out with socialist atheist modernists, while anti-feminists will be with the capitalist religious traditionalists - but that ignores Darwinist antifems and Christian female-ordination boosters, and others I'm sure

Depends on the scenario and personal limits. For example, I think that it's aight to kill any murderer as long as it is proved beyond a shadow of a doubt that they did it, or if they confess, and it's okay to do it in the same manner that they killed their victims. Some people think lifetime imprisonment is better. Some think just snuff em quick. Fact remains, I'd shoot Cho, the V-Tech killer, if I was there and had a gun.

The stereotype no doubt ties back to Communist Russia where socialism and atheism went hand in hand.
