Get the atheist mug.Atheistic is the quality of being atheist. That is to believe that there is no god. Though the customary response for many logical thinkers and scientific types it falls prey to the same logic flaws of religion as it is, ultimately, a belief and has neither been proven or dis-proven.
Atheistic person: "look up there!"
Jehova's witness: *looks up at sky "there's nothing up there"
Atheistic person: "Exactly"

Get the Atheistic mug.The belief that everything in the universe, all we see and all we have yet to see is the creation (by-product) of random acts of coincidence with foundations solely in pure science and rationale mixed with generous doses of cause and effect and trial and error.
True atheists do not believe in any form of God, or God related creation, including any form of morale standard that would indicate the existence of right versus wrong. Although atheists may one day be able to explain all matters and conditions of the universe, they will never be able to rationalize questions like: Why is there a universe? Why does it go on as it does? or Has it any meaning? (see C.S. Lewis, Mere Christianity)
True atheists also agree that belief in pure science and a belief in God cannot be reconciled. Although many of history's greatest scientists (Einstein), inventors (Benjamin Franklin) and mathematicians (Blaise Pascal) were believers in God. See example below.

Einstein is probably the best known and most highly revered scientist of the twentieth century, and is associated with major revolutions in our thinking about time, gravity, and the conversion of matter to energy (E=mc2). Although never coming to belief in a personal God, he recognized the impossibility of a non-created universe. The Encyclopedia Britannica says of him: "Firmly denying atheism, Einstein expressed a belief in "Spinoza's God who reveals himself in the harmony of what exists." This actually motivated his interest in science, as he once remarked to a young physicist: "I want to know how God created this world, I am not interested in this or that phenomenon, in the spectrum of this or that element. I want to know His thoughts, the rest are details." Einstein's famous epithet on the "uncertainty principle" was "God does not play dice" - and to him this was a real statement about a God in whom he believed. A famous saying of his was "Science without religion is lame, religion without science is blind."

Get the atheist mug.The place where atheists come from.
A beautiful place where the individual recognises him/herself as the meaning of their being.
A non-place where individuals understand that life is fleeting, a drop in the ocean and where logical, evidenced science prevails.
An area of idyllic existence which one can aspire to whilst one is forced to exist on the planet Earth.
A state of mind where one is in touch with reality.

Get the Atheiopia mug.1. A person who dosn't belive in a higher being, God or anything that is similar.
Some Atheists except that science has already proven that God dosn't exist.
But Actually, the truth is science and religion connot prove the existence or unexistence of a God or higher being .ect.
I'm an atheist because it is so confusing to choose weather to belive or not to belive.
Both sides think they are the right one (Atheist vs christians).
They both have strong and "Definate" feelings about what they belive.
Atheism isn't a religion by the way.
Hey lets just think for a second. Ok lets go back to the times of exploration. There were lands where there wasn't any christianity, BUT there was some kind of religion. In countries like Australia and Hawaii and Other islands and north and south America. They all had natives before the european exploers, they all had there theories of creationism(like Christianity) they had higher beings or daities. They all had stories of how things came to be, like animals and sertain aspects of nature. Those religions are practicually wiped out when the europeans came and took over, but the stories still exist.
What I'm trying to state is that all cultures have their theories of how something came to be or something like that. All cultures have there theories.
Religions tell people that other religions are wrong in someway, yep even the so called all loving Christianty Religion.
It's human nature to be like this. Don't worry in the future we will all find out the TRUTH.

Get the atheist mug.some argue the state and atheists have cause over 100 million deaths. Nothing compared to the sheer number of deaths that have been cause by religion and theism in the past (crusades) and the simple halt of progress that the church has created (inquisition). Also, violence based on God continues today in the Middle East. But atheists are bad because they don't have faith in something that has no logical merit.
According to Roman Catholic tradition and scripture, one is to have faith in something without proof, like God or Jesus. However, I can easily say "I am Jesus 2005, follow me" and you must follow me without any logical reason or proof, because you're supposed to have faith. Makes sense.
