>religious people have higher rates of reproduction Yeah all the muslims. Awesome right?
Wyatt Jones
That's evolution for ya.
Nathan Thompson
>religious people So basically muslims
Dominic Myers
The person doing the study is forgetting that atheists convert people and is a mind disease. You could literally breed no atheists and it was still survive cucking children in school institutions and shit.

>Religion is genetic
Cameron Evans
All their books are on the market. Atheism isn't a gene, it's a fucking idea. Ideas are not genetic.
Dylan King
They address that. Religion is partly heritable.
Lucas White
How about religious parents raise their kids to be religious and live in religous communities you dumb fucks?
Adam Perry
Religion was enforced in the West for most of history, and now it's being bred out?
Jose Morris
The Enlightenment was a one-off. We don't get an atheist revival after this.
Justin Sanchez
i'm an atheist, and i have 3 kids.
fuck your logic.
Lucas Rogers
I agree with this gentleman. Religion is taught. One is not born believing in God.
Landon Perez
Most atheists are born to theist parents
Tyler Robinson
Spirituality is a biological need and is heritable, read this, smart ass
My parents raised my brothers and I religiously. We went to religious schools and attended church regularly. Our family history is Irish Catholic with a heavy involvement in Sydney church history.
We're now all either atheist or agnostic,
Explain that leaf.
Camden Taylor
To every action there is an opposite and equal reaction.
Jayden Bennett
do you understand what a statistical average is?
didn't realise belief was genetic
Parker Cox
Why is atheism bad again?
Elijah Parker
This is a Christian board, okay. What about the Mandela Effect and the Bible changes? I'm affected and because I can't be sure whenever you're affected too and see the changes, you saying "I'm Christian and believe in the Word" means something entirely different to you as it does for me and I'm not going anyway near you.
TL;DR Mandela Affected and Christian = Nice to meet you Christian doesn't believe in ME = Crazy devil worshipping leftist stay away from me.
Austin Morales
The ultimate redpill is realizing that atheism is the cause of the downfall of the West.
It is the atheist that promotes feminism.
It is the atheist that regards the traditional, stable family as archaic, and keeps offering "alternatives"(thus degrading the original family unit".
It is the atheist that promotes abortion, thus ensuring lack of procreation(don't believe Sup Forums's statement of anti-abortion being anti-white. In every Western nation except for the USA, abortions are done mostly by whites).
It is the atheist that promotes moral relativism.
It is the atheist that promotes open borders, and started the trend of calling anyone against it racist.
It is the atheist that mocks nationalism, and cast scorn on great men and empires of the past.
Nicholas Kelly
is it possible that atheism is both worse for society and still correct?
Joseph Ward
If you don't leave at least enough room within the realm of divine providence for god granted natural rights to originate, then you have purposely (though unwittingly) handed rights over to nation states and corporate actors. Humans can take rights away if you don't maintain natural rights. That is the bare minimum wrong with atheism from a completely secular point of view.
Asher Wilson
Atheism is not a religion. We don't have a pope to tell us to breed. We're also not in competition with you unless you attempt to limit our freedoms or force your silly beliefs on us. Fortunately, reason will always exist, even when suppressed, and as such, so will atheism.

Fuck, you're about two points above legitimately retarded, aren't you?
Cooper Evans
Me and my wife had children because we believed that we evolved we needed to make two more people who were just like us to replace us and carry on our genes so they two may one day evolve and leave this world behind.
Mason Harris
>We're also not in competition with you
> devotes rest of post to describing how atheism is in competition with religion
Hunter Sanders
No.
Leo Torres
It's not. These people are superstitious morons.
Andrew Butler
why?
Ryder Flores
I tend to agree, but atheism is actually ratioanl
Dylan Richardson
Yes.
But atheism isn't correct. They don't understand what religion is.
David Lewis
Impyling Atheist's can't be born from religious families?
My entire family is super Lutheran and I am a Religion Respecting Atheist.
You can believe in whatever god you want to, and I will respect that. However I don't believe in any of them.
Juan Gonzalez

Michael Ortiz
I'm so glad I grew out of my edgy atheist phase
Mason Sullivan
Nah. I do have brain damage though. I nail complicated words but aphasia fucks up small words like "am is were but was" etc. It is legitimately a good thing to ask. Thanks.
Hunter Rivera
>we were born retarded
Kevin Butler
If you don't understand what the function of religion is, how can you reject it?
Atheists are legitimately retarded.
Bentley Morgan
>Religious people having more babies
So you're telling me hispanics, niggers and muslims are out breeding whites? Well color me shocked!
Eli Baker
Hahaha! You're a moron. Atheism is what will evolve as our brains get smarter through evolution. Sounds like you could use a hefty dose of evolution, yourself.
Atheism isn't the downfall of anything; it just bugs you that people live without your silly rules and end up the same amount of dead you will.
Feminism isn't a bad thing.
The traditional family unit is fine, just not the only functional model.
abortion should be mandatory in all pregnancies.
Morality is relative. Rationality isn't.
Borders should only really be gates to regulate flow, not close off people from foreign lands and cultures.
Nationalism is retarded. The past is something to learn lessons from, not worship its ghosts.
Gabriel Nelson
And hopefully someday you'll grow out of thinking memes reflect the real world.
Christopher Lopez
"worse" is relative.
Josiah Lee
whoa man don't cut yourself on that edge
Joshua Flores
>clearly has reading comprehension issues.
Gabriel Bennett
I don't think you can actually define "edgy" if you think a peaceful, objective description of atheism is "edgy".
Ryder Collins
This is why liberals need immigration
Julian Roberts
Morality is made relative by those who abuse your sensibilities and think they can lead you to a utopia. This is great if you have attributes found on a stereotypically negative axis as you will be lifted up to middling. You will be pushed down if you have attributes stereotypically on the positive side however. They are attempting to push societies through levers to a morally relativistic grey where no one really has ownership of anything, except the few unspoken masters.

It's not like it's hard to make more atheists. All you have to do is stop caring.

good riddance
Robert Martinez
>religious believers >lack of belief
Jaxson Brown
You can expand that to leftists in general. Nothing about their ideology is reproductive because nothing about it properly fathoms the human condition. This is why they're so aggressive about opposing homeschooling and putting propaganda in schools - the only way to affect the minds of the next generation is to get at the children birthed by more effective methods of thought.
Brody Morales
>Due to their lack of belief in contraception well they have to come from somewhere. atheists sure aren't making them.
Jeremiah Martinez
>Due to their lack of belief in contraception lol it has nothing to do with that some philistine wrote this
Julian Kelly
Pretty much. Everything about traditionalism goes back to population management. "Not believing in contraception" is a pretty big copout, but it's not like (((they))) can exactly go shining the spotlight on the truth.
