My post back in February predicted this. These threads are NOT GOOD. They just turn into wars where people insult other beliefs. Have your own opinions, that's fine, and everyone can believe what they want, that's great too! No need to attack others. You may have your own reasons for being theist or atheist, and that is fantastic but no need to shove it down each others throats and insult each other.
Religion is fine. Majority of Religion is good, and the main reason for Religion seems to be to give people hope and a meaning to live. Those things are amazing to have, and obviously people who believe in a god are very happy. Just because you've seen the bad side, doesn't mean all of it is bad, and "F**K GOD!" That is kinda rude, just saying, my apologies.
However, I completely understand the reasons why some people on this forum seem to hate even just the idea of a god. Some of those reasons are the same reasons I am not religious. No need to be rude about it, though.

I agree that this doesn't need to turn into a war. I would advise taking more personal discussions to personal messaging.

I personally see myself as an agnostic, I am a far stronger believer in science than I am in religion, but nothing can be proved to the extent where it is 100% definite, science itself abides by this law.

Religion does have a good point, it just can't be proven.

It is the debate section for a reason right? For debating, so giving a counter argument is expected. I don't see anything that can be considered majorly offensive in the this thread at all that is deserving of a big "White Knight" post.

Saying religion is unscientific is quite funny; they're both considered "rivals"... Religion is complete bullshit, all the gods we know of are complete fiction. Though a higher power isn't impossible just HIGHLY unlikely. A higher power that can obied by how the universe is and all is a god that can actually exist. Also religious people don't disproove science they just don't agree with the science that defies the beliefs they hold(Key word being BELIEFS). This could come across as offensive to others- 'Religion is complete bullshit'. I don't need to explain why tbh.

Well thats my "belief". I can say that where ever I may roam. I'm not stopping anyone else's opinion or dictating they're belief because 1. I don't care what people believe in. It doesn't dictate my opinion on them. 2. I never said "no one should post pro-god statements" because I'm the one who told Theropod to make the damn thread.

Well, when you put it like that, I completely agree with you. Of course you have a right to bring across and argue your opinion in this thread. I guess the only way it might be considered even mildly offensive is because of the language used, but that's not that much of an issue either

It's amusing when i hear religious people making fun of other religions. The other day, my Christian friend was insulting Scientology about how ridiculous it is, while defending Noah's ark.

His point is that it might have crossed the offensive line. It really isn't rare to see people being offended by having their beliefs insulted, given how it's addressing a point in an unnecessary manner. I am not taking sides, but he does have a point right there.
