[Archive] Is the bible supposed to be taken literally or not? Atheist vs Theist in the worst way possible but How does it look if I interpret it in the best way possible

I'm an atheist, but I realise that some atheists (myself included) can come across a bit pompous, although to the same scale as some of the Xtians in here.
Whereas we have far fewer Muslims in this section, but people like Aashiq_Al_Rasul always seem to conduct themselves well, and portray their religion pretty well.
The christians they're really like hostile.
Dude Their questions are always an insult.
If I respond with an insult.
OMG ATHIEST EVUL SATAN.
it's really stupid
Muslims r doin pretty well with modesty and respect to other religion including me.
I think the Christians who don't really know their own faith too well seem quite ignorant. It really doesn't help if they don't know how to spell either.
This may be a sweeping generalisation but most atheists on YA tend to be able to reason quite well and use grammar and punctuation effectively.
the worst has to be the bigoted muslims and the bigoted christians and other bigots
the christians have the most bigots though
the best are either buddhists or pagans and some atheists
I think people generally have a negative to muslims. which is completly stupid i think, because it doesnt mean all muslims are like bomb wearing terroists, u no. but some people are just ignorant.
I don't know any xtians.
I've seen a couple Christians who act decently, but I find that the Wiccans are the most non judgemental. Thanks for the mention, btw.
Best: Pagans - Haven't seen them say a bad thing about anyone.
Worst: christians/muslims/atheists - of course there is always the exception.
Muslims. Nice people. Too bad they want to kill you.
A *bit* pompous?
I think I'm some sort of atheistic he-man!
Er, probably wiccans. They're really the only level-headed bunch to frequent this forum. Kind of like xtians without the bad parts - so nothing like xtians at all.
Edit: Not sure where mike has been living :s
Honestly?
I'd say it's always six of one and half a dozen of the others.
Each group seems to have it's zealots to embarrass their middle-of-the-roaders.
Buddhists
But many that are first shall be last; and the last shall be first.
Matthew 19:29-30
On this planet...I always hope I am last...and least. I hope that other people are always better than me, and I hope I set a high standard.
Please hope that I succeed.
Christians.
Pagans are awesome.
They're usually so cool and level-headed. I love them :)
I would have to say the Christians. I know what you mean about some of the atheists coming over as being pompous, but I think the Christians win the gold medal on that one!
Desiree drags your entire group down a notch, sorry.
Oh and you forgot the pagans.
I'm a christian, I would say atheists behave worst in this section and Muslims are usually the best behaved. the atheists always criticize spelling and grammar but they make alllllllooooooottt of their own errors and no one seams to catch it its kinda funny. Grammar is over rated what Am I in skool or sumting?
its really depends on how the person interprets the religion and uses the religion for what they want etc.
 Where was the last debate on wednesday with Mccain and Obama?
