Holy ass |

^But the morals don't originate from that religion. They come from you and your instincts |

I'll use JoS's graph for you, edited with my crappy shoopin' skills. |

I observe many people who are christian and see that they are kind of obsessed and judgmental towards themselves and others based on a moral code that they have put together in their mind. I find this to be unhealthy and against natural healing. It is not good to judge yourself. Its like saying I am not worthy of love for who I am. You have to be accepting of yourself and who you are. I believe in following the moral compass of your heart. So yes it is moral. But not moral in way that is just something you came up with in your mind. Its like the morality of your soul. Which is free and unconditionally loving. And that is what god is. God loves the bad and the good equally and so should you! |

That graph is kinda wrong. It doesn't take consideration that agnosticism doesn't affect theism/atheism at all, and you can only be one of the two. Theist or atheist. And you can be agnostic or gnostic. To situate a dot in that graph right in the center of the theism scale is to misuse the descriptions. |

ok :/ |
|
So, an agnostic apatheist would claim that, "You can't know if a god exists so I don't really care if he does," and a gnostic apatheist would claim that, "You may be able to prove that a god exists but I still don't care anyway," and a strictly apatheist person would state "I don't care and don't really see how others do." |
|
a gnostic apatheist would either be what you said OR be like he doesnt exist, im sure of it, and thats why IDGAF |

oui oui |

I find it unusual that people who don't believe in god are so eager to label themselves based off of something they do not believe in. I do not believe in unicorns but I don't go around calling myself a "non-unicorn-believer". Atheism is a negation of a belief not an affirmation of one. |

In my opinion the world needs more "loud mouthed obnoxious atheists". |
|
That's good. But the world does not need more of the obnoxious kind. The world needs more of them who push on against the religious discrimination in a reasonable manner. Not going around insulting every religious person, that's not the kind of image we really should want to form of ourselves. |

The worst thing that can happen to a good cause is, not to be skillfully attacked, but to be ineptly defended. - Frédéric Bastiat
I try to deny myself any illusions or delusions, and I think that this perhaps entitles me to try and deny the same to others, at least as long as they refuse to keep their fantasies to themselves. - Christopher Hitchens

By obnoxious atheist I assumed you meant atheist who are outspoken about their skepticism regarding religion which I certainly condone. I definitely agree that applying pressure to religious beliefs should be done in a reasonable fashion instead of useless ad hominem attacks. I don't insult religious people personally but I also don't respect their beliefs or their book that promotes homophobia, persecution of women, human sacrifice and other morally reprehensible archaic beliefs. |
