Welcome to Our Open Discussion Of All Things Spiritual

The world is being torn apart by it's religions. Could it be that religion is the single, most dangerous concept on the face of the earth, or is it the subversion of religion that will eventually destroy us?

In it he is discussing the regrettably unpleasant comments he, his brother, and others with similar channels receive from people who he states are atheists.

This response is not intended as pwnage of any sort; I simply wish to engage in that conversation.

Movie: China Cry - Christian Persecution in Atheist China - Part 3

Posted by admin in Persecution of Atheist | August 16th, 2009

Nora Lam, her story is wrapped up within one of the most incredible marvels in all world history: how the Christian church survived under repressive atheistic communism in China. But it did more than survive. It thrived and multiplied

The most oppressive and human-killing regime’s have been when Atheists have taken over governments. Nevertheless, atheists claim that people of faith are to blame for mass amounts of people’s lives being taken. This is not based on facts. In the past century, Atheism forced its beliefs on people of faith or simply slaughtered hundreds of millions of them.

Russian Atheist Government Atrocities:
The Soviet Union was the first state to have as an ideological objective the elimination of religion. Toward that end, the Communist regime confiscated church property, ridiculed religion, harassed believers, and propagated atheism in the schools. The main target of the anti-religious campaign in the 1920s and 1930s was the Russian Orthodox Church, which had the largest number of faithful. Nearly all of its clergy, and many of its believers, were shot or sent to labor camps. Theological schools were closed, and church publications were prohibited.

Posted by admin in Islam and Atheism | August 16th, 2009

Atheists are coming out of the proverbial closet in droves, thanks in part to online communities such as Youtube and many others.
