Atheists are autistic
Atheism is still strong.
You just get more backlash if you're a sperg.
Atheists are shitty subhumans who I wouldn't trust running civilization.
Atheists and their ideology fall apart rather quickly and are very weak.
There is only one god Kek.
This is the power of memes. It's true, I remember before fedora meme, leftists like Laurie Penny wore fedoras, post-meme, they won't touch them.
Meme magic only gets stronger. Memes have probably played a very strong part in getting Trump to where he is now.
Maybe we can actually win this.
Atheism has always been shit-tier, they are no better than Christian fundamentalists or Islamists.
I think atheism is still very strong on the internet but fedora gave a very strong counterpunch. Before if you had faith on the internet pretty much the entire website made fun of you. Now fedoraposting gives you an option against them.
I'm an atheist, but I never mention it unless someone goes full retard like that.
Atheists aren't all nihilistic edgelords. I think for the most part christian values are the best. I wish we wouldn't be abandoning them so fast.
inb4 fedora memes. meme at me broooo!!
Fedora maymays are older than 2014 you fag.
I don't believe in it. I'm also not gonna waste my time arguing with someone over their beliefs unless they are a filthy muslim dog.

Progressive Atheism has no future. No birth rates to speak of, Atheists just don't breed.
It will be challenged, bested and replaced by a strong resurgence of Trad values within the next decade as the young eschew pointless existence for fulfillment within Organized religion.
In every atheist region the people are aging with no replacement population in sight.
Atheism is literally death.
Well it shits on those who really feel the need to show that they REALLY ARE SO ENLIGHTENED by atheism, so im alright with that. No meme will change the way i feel or percieve things, only insecure faggots will give a shit.
>bested and replaced by a strong resurgence of Trad values
Yeah, from Muslim immigrants. :/
We screwed outselves.
>seriously being an atheist
>not following the religion of your fathers for the sake of tradition and then studying philosophy and theology to understand yourself and your own mortality
I'm a catholic, I respect any other follower of any other denomination or faith more then an atheist.
Atheism is just brainwashed faggots discarded the traditions of their people, at the behest of their jewish and corporate masters.
I seriously hope anyone here doesn't discard their parents or grandparents faith and values simply because that's the popular thing to do.
Fuck the pope, the elite, the intellectuals, all they aim to do is strengthen their own power by stripping the west of its spiritual and philosophical foundations.
because it effectively summarizes what the stupid ideology of Modern Atheism is about
What am I if I side with Christians against anti theists, support their core beliefs and lifestyle, and respect them for developing the infrastructure for modern civilization as we know it, but don't actually believe a word of the bible or in the concept of a divine creator or afterlife?
The fedora memes are the symptom of a greater reaction. Atheism isn't cool anymore because it was only popularized by Jews to beat back Christianity. Anti-theism just isn't cool when too many people go along with it. That's why Satanism was hip in the 70s but corny nowadays.
>'kill an entire ideology'
>it gets made fun of on reddit and Sup Forums
They'll be having a hard time tolerating you. The system requires faith. Most people are not enlightened enough to chose to live according to these principles. In theistic societies, atheism is reserved for the elite.
>Pope Francis
>Christian
Pick one
>That's why Satanism was hip in the 70s but corny nowadays.
Correction: It was actually cool up until the 90s, before 9/11 happened. Once 9/11 happened, that sort of edginess wasn't cool anymore.
Fast-forward to now and it's the media itself that is lame, like hyper-Kaczynskism. "Everyone" knows it's shallow and fake.
>Atheists aren't all nihilistic edgelords. I think for the most part christian values are the best. I wish we wouldn't be abandoning them so fast.
be the change you wish to see in the world
or is it too hard ;(((((((((
It's called being a cultural Christian. Even Richard Dawkins admits that he is a cultural Christian.
Still butthurt for that time he said that Trump wasn't acting like a Christian?
The fedora meme is only used in cesspools. The people I see referencing it in non-cesspool sites are all trashy people that have a bitter attitude and have a scornful attitude towards everybody, and they are always shunned by other people.
Don't get me wrong, I'm an atheist and I've been banned from numerous atheist websites. I haven't talked about this in a LONG time. Atheists have always hated my right leaning stance on things. I understand why people think atheists are arrogant, but everyone is arrogant.
Didn't even know he said that. Knew he was a cuck when he said atheists and gays aren't sinners.
>Atheists have always hated my right leaning stance on things.
Y'all heathens got Jewed with the whole Atheism 2.0 or whatever the fuck it was that essentially turned it into more feminist PC shit.
>Atheism isn't cool anymore because it was only popularized by Jews to beat back Christianity
Honestly I think it was only interesting because there were very vocal atheists who appeared like Hitchens and Dawkins, and Hitchens is dead and Dawkins probably has better things to do now.
Also with the rise of terrorism the edgy left are too busy ironically defending Islam.
Actually, he said that the churches door are open for them and only God can judge them, but later said "gay marriage" is incompatible with the doctrine and shouldn't happen, but hey, what I could expect from an American with copy-pasted meme opinions?
Because its effective, its literally the U mad? of discussing religion. By posting that picture or calling them a fedora there is no possible way they can reply without sounding mad, same with when people say U mad you can't respond without sounding mad
>he said atheists and gays aren't sinners
He may be saving your dying religion by saying things like that.
Lay off the gays. Quit focusing on the sex acts themselves so much. Make it more abstract. Tolerate the decent gays. Focus more on all sorts of "degeneracy" that everyone can agree on, even the atheists. There's a culture war going on. If you stick to fundamentalist stuff, you lose. And that's what the other side wants you to do.
I was thinking about posting this thread t b h f a m. Thank you for taking the initiative, OP -- even if it is just pasta.
Athesits are Jack asses that think they know the secrets to the Universe.
>the churches door are open for them and only God can judge them
Based repentance and purgatory always giving Catholics a reason to ignore whatever and still technically be Catholic.
Same shit
they do it to themselves
even reddit got tired of their shit and took them off of being a default sub
And his name is Donald J. Trump.
I'm not advocating shunning homosexuals, in the same way I don't advocate shunning any other kind of sinners (within reason.)
As social justice has shown us, accepting homosexuality is a slippery slope.
Christ stands forever. You are the only one clinging to dying ways.
Why are most atheists white, jewish, and asian?

A parasite. Religion is not philosophy. Although philosophy is more respected, religion is more powerful in the fact that it's applied philosophy, or popular philosophy, or "poetic philosophy".
Religion builds up civilization, but not only. Its thanks to the faithful that believe in the creed and give strength to religious values. The reason why the Western is falling apart today is not because faith changed, but because there are less believers and in turn less power given to religious values.
Its nice that you acknowledge all the gifts Christianity has given to Western civilization, but you're not helping Christianity any more than the globalists. You're riding on the work of the faithful.
Highest IQ races
Liberalism has internalized Christian values since it sprung up from them, and wants its adherents to be the all-inclusive, omni-tolerant martyrs on the cross Jesus was with the added Catholic guilt complex from centuries of papal inculcation, without realizing they're trading in the same ideas as their despised forefathers and only changing the names of the deed. It's all the same ritual, and they don't even realize it.
...
>I'm not advocating shunning homosexuals
Oh ok. Some christians treat them pretty cruelly desu. Many gays are absolutely decent people.
It's difficult to tolerate something while not allowing it to become normalized. That's the problem with gay marriage and gay adoptions... I supported it before, but now I don't know...
>Christ stands forever. You are the only one clinging to dying ways.
I should slap you. The devine will not intervene to save your religion. Religions come and go. You have to fight, and you have to smart about it.
>30% of American Buddhists are Jewish
Honestly user, the Jews are so fucking weird, they confuse me.
Anons, is there any way to prove morality is objective without God?
I believe morality is objective, but I can't prove it using only natural law, this is a question I've been trying to answer.
Interesting
Why are blacks, hispanics, indians, and middle easterners so religious?
I think we already know
It's been like that for a while, christburger. New Atheism started in the late 2000s, but really took off when feminism infused itself into it, and it became synonymous with SJWs, leftism, political correctness, and autism.
It honestly doesn't matter much though, I'm older and I've had my heyday of arguing about it with other people. I've seen it all, said it all and done it all in a sense. I keep a neutral tone to my language and I only really encounter hostile Christians on here.

Athiesm+ is universally hated even by a large portion of left leaning atheists
well you should study more since christianity is certainly true.
You have it backwards friendo, only theists are the ones making any claims about knowing shit like that (god did it)
People saying their self to be Atheist arent really 100%
Atheism is a bad thing and promotes the pointlessness in life. Most ''athiest'' are people who dont believe in bible or religion but still belives in higer beings/ another level of consciousness and misusing the word athiesm.
Some just turned into satanism because god couldnt give them life they wanted.
99% of ''real athiests'' who really belives that there are no higher power or consciousness commits sucide
Interesting
It's almost as if the smarter races know better
Holy shit
Estonia is unpopulated
and yet Julius Fedora is even more fedora-tier
Isn't the whole point of believing that you have faith despite the lack of affirming evidence?
>Anons, is there any way to prove morality is objective without God?
Short answer: Not yet.
Long Answer: Being declared objective by a 2000 year old fairy tale character doesn't make your morality more objective.
This meme killed off atheism because we realised that religion wasn't the problem afterall.
Sure creationism was obviously retarded. And it was dumb that it was getting into some schools and shit.
But then we realised that SJW bullshit has been taught in universities for decades. Creationism and religion in general's attempt to influence education was mostly a failure, a bit of a laugh.
But what has happened to our universities is serious and endemic. And this is mostly done by irreligious people. So it was no longer seen as particularly intellectual to be atheist when the biggest bullshit going actually attaches itself to atheism much of the time.
Personally I'm still an atheist, but if anyone asks I just say Christian because I can't be arsed to explain that I'm not a fedora tipper.
Christianity has been in trouble since the fucking 1500s. If you follow the history of philosophy this should be appearent. Spinoza ripped apart the old metaphysics, Renaissance humanism made it so ethics were no longer focused on God, skeptics such as Hume and Bacon changed epistmology so you could no longer be certain of God. Voltaire destroyed it's historical narrative. etc.
What's funny is half the people that fucked with Christianity thought they were actually helping it. Bacon insisted that we would eventually find scientific proof to prove everything in the bible and we shouldn't just believe it because it's written.
By the time the 1800s came the religion was really on it's last leg. Hegel tried to come to the rescue and reboot the religion using his philosophy to fill in all the weak parts, but it actually just made the religion die faster. Darwin showed up caused a shit storm. Than Nietzsche at last came onto the scene and declared we had killed God and completely changed how people saw it. Since than just about every intellectual from Marx to Freud took hacks at it and religion pretty much got completely from serious study like a tumor.
At this point universal education was not a thing so the average person was not aware of how completly BTFO their religion was. Eventually when people started reading they discovered this crap. The past 100 years have just been the peasents catching up to a long old truth. Pop philosophers like Sam Harris borrowed ideas that had already been put forth centuaries ago and people think it's some big news.
If you think the fedora's "caused" any of this you havn't been paying attention.
the liberals caved when the global warming "data" rolled in. they knew they would have to make excuses for muslims in africa and the middle east
To be fair, people were goofing were fedoras long before then.
>How did one meme kill an entire ideology
If was killed there would be no more threads about it.
atheists are just easier to set off than other religions
Are you serious? I thought this whole athe1sm!!11 was only a thing in the US. No-one gives a shit in the UK. You get more funny looks if you say you're a Christian over here.
Heh. Good point! The creationism crap isn't nearly as bad as the SJW crap. I've never seen it that way.
Alright pol help me here, I need good theism theory to justify believing in God again. I can't tolerate not having a strong faith to fight sand niggers and cucks
The atheist movement 2013-2014 was akin to SJWs. Amazing how one meme killed the movement entirely. How did this happen?
I think this could be done to feminists and libtards
No.
if you set a church on fire will it burn or will god just blow it out
now i have to cry because i saw burning churches
It went to shit after SJW employed their usual co-opting tactics and started the nonsensical identity politics while demeaning the four horses for being male and white. The "I'm enlightened by my own intelligence" and the tip fedora was just the last nail in the coffin.
But yeah, meme magic is indeed quite strong.
>fairy tale
>I have successfully received your tip, your award money will be sent to you via paypal
>tfw agnostic and still meme-free to this day
really though, god is probably not real
Agnosticism is a meme in and of itself.
I would be a paid shill if I knew how to get in touch with these people.
Anons, is there any way to prove morality is objective without God?
Look around you and see what countries become with cerrtain moral values, islam are a bunch of nut bags but they think its normal to stone someone who have burned a quran. Then look at china they now lack around 30 million girls because they killed them because there goverment had a one child policy and boys are worth more
Atheism hasn't gone anywhere. It's useless to mention it on Sup Forums though, some faggot will just spam bible quotes until the thread dies.
Memes and spam didn't kill an ideology, they killed discussion of it on a board on Sup Forums.
Religious talk is irritating either way here, so I just wish those fucking bible-quote fiends would fuck off as well.
...
>Anons, is there any way to prove morality is objective without God?
Philosophy fag here.
There is no way to have objective morality WITH God.
Suppose God says that killing is wrong. How does this logically make it objective? All we have is a being giving a statement. Saying there is a reward/punishment for obeying does not make it objective it just pushes you in one direction. Saying "he's really smart so he has the right answer" does not make sense either. It fails to establish a casual relationship between obeying and being good.
There is no way to get an is from an ought so all morality is going to be subjective. Even basic ideas such as life being better than death, truth better lies, pleasure better than pain, are subjective. We are just socially conditioned to see these as normal. But philosophy has to ask questions rather than just go with the normative.
All you can do is create some sort of system that measures morality against a standard. But there is no objective reason to go with that standard. The ultimate authority in any morality is yourself because you choose what standards to follow.
Morality is not objective, but we should still defend our culture as the superior one because anything less is being a cuck.
Because God has blessed meme magic
Sup Forums isn't a christian board at least not actual christian since the majority of us don't believe the bible but shut up about it because butthurt beta christians can't get their european waifu because christianity calls women to be virgins till marriage. And without that they can't get a chick.
Spot the r-selected person.
This is basically how morality works. Whichever society wins gets to call the shots. An individual person may also choose to move away from what society is trying to impose on him and call the shots for himself, however someone like Nietzsche would say such people are uncommon and most people are the "herd" who will just go along with whatever the current ruling society says.
This essentially means my deal Sup Forumsacks if you want to destroy "degeneracy" and replace it with "healthy" morals you do not need any moral reason to do so, than your own will is the justification. And if you gain control over a small piece of society (even if that piece is just the children you raise), you can install new morals into the 'herd'.
Supreme wisdom, overwhelming majority of people are ignorant to this
We believe in Memetheism now
In the beginning there was the meme...
I believe you are false, there is no way (as far as I know) that morality can be objective WITHOUT God. God being the ultimate authority on the JUST nature of the world.
Your subjective worldview as really screwed you up if you don't understand basic principals such as pleasure being better than pain, truth being better than lies, natural laws set these things in stone. The creator of those natural laws, being God.
>objective
Why? Not everything needs to be a science. Philosophers have been reasoning about morality since the beginning of time. Your culture can be based on non-objective principles just fine without having to resort to fantasy.
If a meme can kill an ideology then it stands to reason the ideology wasn't that strong in the first place.
people who think they understand everything about the world and disregard the opinions of others are autistic.
this applies to everyone, regardless of faith or lack there of.
I'm not saying that cultures can't exist without objective morality, but they are dangerous and lead to ideas such as "the ends justify the means" where millions of people get killed for the good of society, or basic tribal peoples who rape each other because they don't know better.
