Every argument for God and every attribute ascribed to Him rests on a false metaphysical premise. None can survive for a moment on a correct metaphysics . . . .
Existence exists, and only existence exists. Existence is a primary: it is uncreated, indestructible, eternal. So if you are to postulate something beyond existence—some supernatural realm—you must do it by openly denying reason, dispensing with definitions, proofs, arguments, and saying flatly, “To Hell with argument, I have faith.” That, of course, is a willful rejection of reason. Objectivism advocates reason as man’s sole means of knowledge, and therefore, for the reasons I have already given, it is atheist. It denies any supernatural dimension presented as a contradiction of nature, of existence. This applies not only to God, but also to every variant of the supernatural ever advocated or to be advocated. In other words, we accept reality, and that’s all.

Yes. I`m just open-minded myself, so I am truly non-religious.

atheism is to worship nothing but your brain and knowledge .... Ucheea, instead of confronting or maligning why don't you follow the advice of Christ who said to pray for those who despitefully use you and love your enemy. Do good to those who hate you. The Father himself makes it rain upon the just and the unjust as Christ well knew. The Father's love extends to all mankind, whether you understand that or not. When someone on the street asks you for some food, do you grant their desire, or do you ask first if he is Christian or Atheist? I am a Christian and I endeavor to show Christ's love to everyone and to be a light to others, not a reason to despise the Christ I love so much. Remember that "While we were yet sinners, Christ died for us". Can you display the love Christ did in offering himself up as a ransom for sinners? Would you give your life for those who ridicule you? Christ did! If we call ourselves Christians, we ourselves must be willing to do the same. If you do not believe this, you fall short of the faith you proclaim to believe in. Stop the antagonistic approach, be humble, and come from a point of love and pray for others, instead of constantly debating with people who are set in their beliefs. Prayer works miracles. I know of what I speak. Remember, when at the cross, Christ prayer for forgiveness of others. Please do the same. Hopefully you will consider the things I've said and agree, we must love everyone without condition. This does not mean we have to agree with their viewpoint, but neither does it mean that we set ourselves up as their judge, jury, and executioner. Only God knows their hearts and He is Mercy. Remember also what Christ said "He that is without sin, let him cast the first stone" when speaking to the woman caught in adultery. Please carefully consider the things I have said. Peace and Love to you and everyone here. |

These were to receive the greater condemnation. This you cannot deny. We must first remove the log from our own eyes and then we shall see clearly how to extract the splinter which is in our brothers eye. This also you cannot deny, it is His Word not mine. Attack this and you attack Him. |

Only, try not to be a fanatic. Christianity was supposed to be a relationship with God, but has drastically deviated from the original intent Christ set out. Now Christians malign each other because they have made a "religion" out of Christ's teachings rather than a way of life and how we treat all of humanity. I am a Christian, I do not belong to a specific branch of Christianity because of the divisions it has caused. I do have a personal relationship with God, and that is what everyone else in the world should want to have as well. When you know God is your father, you know he is always there to listen to you, help you, and most of all love you. There is no love greater than His. |
