Are People Who Believe in God Stupid?

[Clinton Huxley]

So rocks are concious?

Yup

Space 1999. Every week the alien was a glowing rock or Bernard Cribbins.

"It's like ...like the whole cosmos is a thinking machine and we are just tiny parts of it and it doesn't Have a conciousness it IS conciousness ,in each and every atom and thing .
And I can hear it talking in my head ."

[Coito ergo sum]

No. Mine makes sense, yours is woo.

You've already admitted previously that you don't have any reason for what you believe, you "just believe it." So, yours by your own definition can't make sense.

I have every reason to believe it. It makes sense. I'm always right. All hail Chuck Jones.

Knowing a deist and reading this thread has made me think. ( I try not to do it too much, so don't push me )

How can we express and describe feelings and emotions in a secular way when organised religion has co-opted the language of spiritual experience?

[Chuck Jones]

You're going to have to get off your fucking ass and make up some lingo like we have. Otherwise you're stuck with our lingo. If you don't like it, tough. I'm Chuck Jones.

I think they are.

They are obviously gullible, they aren't rational, they lie to themselves to intensify their God delusion and they don't have that feeling of "groundedness" and intellectual calm which I think is inherent in atheists.

Can't be bothered reading all 11 pages, but I'd say not stupid, just deluded, which is a totally different thing.

We did, you nicked it.

Give back our language, our thoughts and experiences.

So, you consider yourself part of "organized" religion now? Which organization is that?

[Chuck Jones]

Coitus, no. You just said that yourself and you're trying to put words into my mouth. Not all theists are part of organised religion.
