Christian law is at odds, ALL religions are IMMORAL. They say you are born sick and forced to be well or face eternal torture, how fucked up is that?

Sounds like the ramblings of old pedophiles who cling to power.


People are born physically sick everyday; premature, malnourished and physically deformed babies. Some have it worse being born with cancer, aids, crack addiction, etc.. This is by no fault of their own, they are innocent children, infants incapable of choice or understanding. Decisions of others and genetic factors determine their health. This isn't "fair",its life and it is what it is.

I understand why people don't believe in God, hate Him if they do, despise religion and everything else. Its completely understandable.

The premise of mankind being born "sick" and needing to be well, despite doing nothing than being born,  isn't preposterous because we physically see it everyday with new born children.

I agree religion is unhealthy, among the least of its offensives it creates false beliefs and superstitions at its worst religion is catastrophic. However religion isn't simply limited to "god chasers". Some chase the religion of freedom and democracy or money, power, control, education, 4% body fat in all its thonged glory, and so forth.

Everyone is following something whether they want to admit it or not. If you're a muslim, christian or atheists your view point, beliefs and decisions are undoubtedly influenced. 

I wasn't arguing religious beliefs. I was making the point that America doesn't hold itself to any standard, although the argument can be made it never has.

It seems every generation thinks its era was better than the current time, more simple and pure.

For us, those alive in this time, we are learning/growing at an unprecedented and accelerated rate. Throughout the history of mankind life was very simple and basic, travel consisted of some type of horse and buggy, boat or steam engine. The last 150 years of our existence has blown all of mankinds previous advancements out of the water.

Is it fair that the everyday normal people experience luxuries that the richest rulers a century ago could have never dreamt of? Is it fair that.........

Life isn't fair, but it inevitably ends for everyone ever born; christian, muslim or atheist.

You mean, born by chance? not by command? you are confusing two completely different topics, god says we are born with sin cast down from adam and eve, when born we must accept him to be well or face eternal torture. Someone being born sick randomly is what I would expect in an unfair world, ipso facto it is an unfair world. People born sick also don't have conditions placed upon them such as accept this or suffer FOREVER, to compare the two is ludacris, it's a failed analogy.

Ok

The premise of mankind being born "sick" and needing to be well, despite doing nothing than being born,  isn't preposterous because we physically see it everyday with new born children.

Nothing alike, again, how is being born with asthma (which you can choose to treat or not, which is random) the same as being born with sin that you must cast out or perish forever, and this sickness is due to decisions other people made, do you still think it's a fair analogy, the only thing you have right is the word sick.

I agree religion is unhealthy, among the least of its offensives it creates false beliefs and superstitions at its worst religion is catastrophic. However religion isn't simply limited to "god chasers". Some chase the religion of freedom and democracy or money, power, control, education, 4% body fat in all its thonged glory, and so forth.

What is an atheist following again? being atheist says NOTHING about someone insofar as being an aunicornist does, don't be silly.

I wasn't arguing religious beliefs. I was making the point that America doesn't hold itself to any standard, although the argument can be made it never has.

Agreed

It seems every generation thinks its era was better than the current time, more simple and pure.

Agreed

For us, those alive in this time, we are learning/growing at an unprecedented and accelerated rate. Throughout the history of mankind life was very simple and basic, travel consisted of some type of horse and buggy, boat or steam engine. The last 150 years of our existence has blown all of mankinds previous advancements out of the water.

Is it fair that the everyday normal people experience luxuries that the richest rulers a century ago could have never dreamt of? Is it fair that.........

Not sure if it's a matter of fairness, I think fairness would indicate that inequality is correctable or present, hence the temporal difference creates a situation that is unfortunate more than anything
Life isn't fair, but it inevitably ends for everyone ever born; christian, muslim or atheist.

Life isn\t fair, I agree.
