I guess that explains how those Muslim terrorists view their religion.

Religious ideology is responsible for more hatred and bloodshed throughout human history than any other manmade ideology.
But it loves you
Or "your baby is paying for your/our sins".
Or the god thing is now long gone, and this would not have happened when it was around.
Or the god thing gave up on us, and doesn't give a shit if a baby is born with cancer.
Or ???

Or maybe, "God works in mysterious ways",...or "God is making you a stronger person",...etc., etc.

While this is likely true it has had increasingly less relevance to world history
for quite a while. Most if not all of the major military conflicts from the last
two centuries like the Napoleonic wars, American civil war, WWI and WWII had
little to do with oppression by organized religions.
I'm not sure if you've heard of it, but there's this little obscure religion called Islam that has a few radical elements to it. The radical factions within the religion are only responsible for 1 or 2 conflicts worldwide, and only about 100 deaths worldwide. If the numbers seem a bit off it's because I'm using a biblical interpretation approach, 1 or 2 could be 100 or 2000 and 100 can be 10 million, it just depends on how it's interpreted.
Ignoring your 'manmade' conceit, you think that might have something to do with the fact that religion has existed for many thousands of years.
Various varieties of Communism have certainly done a fine job of attempting to catch-up, however.
Gee, how do we measure hatred? Is there a Reichter scale for hatred. As for the bloodshed claim, we already handled that one on past threads and and it's not even close.
Joke's on you, son. I'm a motherfucking atheist. But just as fundamentalists and Westboro types embarrass my more progressive Christian friends, moron atheists who think the only "legitimate" possible type of Christian is a biblical literalist piss me the fuck off. Stop making the rest of us look stupid by association fer fucks sakes.
Easy on the insults cowboy. Progressive Christians? That's funny, so progressive Christians get to pick what parts of the bible to follow or not, all of a sudden adultery becomes not that big of a deal, eh? I wonder if their wives know, and if they are just as progressive as their husbands lol
There are different interpretation of the Bible going on all the time, not all necessarily progressive, but that shouldn't make you any less or more Christian as a result. There are something like 200+ different version of the Scriptures.
Pretty sure major Christian denominations would agree on the matters of adultery and prostitution.
As said you believe in cookie cutter morality. Sort of like saying self-defence is murder, murder is a grievous sin, there is no hope for anyone who kills someone in self-defence.
Or are you attempting the sophomoric argument that morality only matters to those who believe in God, so anyone who believes in God is a hypocrite while I who am an atheist don't have to pay any attention to this morality or ethics "stuff."
Since all law has its foundation in morality and ethics, how does that play out.
Exodus 22:2
So one cannot be moral or ethical without religion?
And no, all I am saying is that I find it highly hypocritical of people belonging to one of the major deities to practice lifestyle that goes directly against the teachings of their religion ya know like adultery and prostitution.
Two chapters later where now things are being qualified, which you have previously said is bad religion.
Which certainly sounds to me a great deal like: morality are rules only for those who believe in God, so anyone who believes in God is a hypocrite while I who am an atheist don't have to pay any attention to this morality or ethics "stuff."
Since if you are going for that "right, dead right" school of morality - Adultery (a sin of no shades) should apply to you as well.

As a side note, personally I try to practice a Buddhist lifestyle.
