Do you believe in radiation poisoning? Because the Church of Fallout would like to talk to you
about the The Great War and how it changed everything.

I was going to go into a rant about how the Church of Fallout and the Church of the Atom had a

Why do some of religious people try to question global warming anyway? How does that contradict
their bible?
permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreplypocket
[]Pantheisttimidforrestcreature 8 points 4 hours ago
It doesn't, republican politicians are just corporate whores paid to allow said corporations to remain
polluting our air and water rather than pay to be clean, they use religion to manipulate their idiot
base but don't actually believe it.

The rhetoric is along the lines of "I'm personally not so arrogant as to believe human beings have
the power to destroy gods creation" along with straight up contradicting scientific consensus global
warming is real and man made.
permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreplypocket
[]Strong AtheistXinotine 2 points 4 hours ago
Ah, well, when haven't leaders and politicians used faith of the masses to manipulate masses.

[]Secular Humanistdumnezero 2 points 4 hours ago
it goes against conservative "Freedom" politics, because the it's not something that can be
countered with free market capitalism; it needs organized and international governmental activity
it's also evidence of indiscriminate suffering and misery, which goes against their notions of just
gods and free will; among humans, the first and main victims of this climate change are poor and
vulnerable people in countries that lack the social safety nets and infrastructure to reduce the
damage and to adapt
it bothers creationists, because .. well, the whole thing is based on science regarding really old
phenomena
permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreplypocket
[]Anti-TheistMike8789 1 point 4 hours ago
It implies god isn't in control of the earth and if it really was an issue god would do something about
it. That's the best explanation I can think of.
permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreplypocket
[]acydetchx 1 point 2 hours ago
Seems to come down to disbelief that humans could affect something God created on such a large
scale. I mean, they believe that God made the Earth and made humans and so therefore is
responsible for how the environment is suitable to our life. The idea that our puny actions could
alter that environment so terribly is laughable to them. They also say it's incredibly arrogant of us to
think our actions can affect nature so much.

I wonder how they rationalize nukes and reactors.
permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreplypocket
[]acydetchx 1 point 2 hours ago
I dunno. We've also caused entire animal species to go extinct and altered other species on
purpose and by accident to a crazy degree. Hell, we've changed the very face of the planet simply
by irrigating, let alone giant dams, pavement everywhere, etc. They don't rationalize too much,
really, is the lesson.
permalinksaveparentreportgive goldreplypocket
[]Strong AtheistXinotine 1 point 1 hour ago
Strange how different way people can think... I think it is irresponsible to not regocnize the impact
of our (referring to human as species) actions on environment.

But you know what god does believe in supporting Slavery, killing innocent people, drowning
animals, sacrificing children, giving out a variety of diseases, stoning gays, and sending people to
burn in an eternal hell fire and have the worst pain imaginable because they didn't believe in him.
But you know what they say "god works in mysterious ways"

It's sad when the message of Christ is reduced to a t-shirt or bumper sticker slogan, especially one
that demeans other human beings made in God's image.
My own journey has involved thinking through more critically some of the nonsense that dominates
sections of the church and focusing instead on the core message of Christ, which after decades I
still find overwhelmingly fascinating.

If only you got laid a lot, you wouldn't have had all this pent up anger. Too bad religion forbids that.

No, it didn't. I'm someone who had bad acne, cleared it up by changing my diet and lifestyle, hit the
gym, went out a lot, banged 9 girls in a year, and met my GF.
Religion prevents you from changing your lifestyle and improving yourself because it puts
responsibility on some imaginary creature.

I love how these shirts try to use an edgy punk aesthetic to say "hey, be just like 75% of the

Yeah, that's annoying. I think the most patronizing one is, when you tell someone you are an

[]Strong Atheisthomo_erraticus 1 point 10 hours ago*
Coincidence? I think not. (Sound familiar?) We have a photo of a T-shirt emblazoned with the
words 'God doesn't believe in atheists' posted on a sub dedicated to the discussion of atheism and
related topics. So, God does not believe in what clearly exists. Hey, it is written, so it must be true.
That proves God wrong, and since God can't be wrong, God obviously isn't God.
Who'd a thunk an irradiated 15 year old evangelical would have presented the proof for which
we've been searching?
