So three of my online atheist friends created a new religion: Dantism. They said Dantism is the fulfillment of religion. Their beliefs, as far as I know, are these:
  • The only absolute truth is that God absolutely dosen’t exist
  • There are no dogmas, no doctrines, and no new revelations
  • Miracles are the work of Nature, though as of yet unexplained
  • The Universe has neither a beginning or an end
  • To be happy, just be yourself
  • Do good for goodness’ sake
  • Every Friday is a day off from work
 
Not too sure about that.

One of my friends claims to be a frisbiterian … when you die, your soul goes up on the roof. [That’s what HE said, not me.]

Anyway, he now has cancer, so we’ll see if his irreverence holds.
 
Every friday is a day off work?

That is your anecdotal experience with athiests?

:rolleyes::eek:

I think there is a prayer forum here for christians to pray for intentions of those they care about.

So, dogmatically, there are no dogmas?
It’s their doctrine to have no doctrines?
They have newly revealed that there are no new revelations?

“Good for goodness’ sake?” What is the source of this “goodness” non-dogma, non-doctrine, non-revelation?

Anyway, I can’t believe that these people are serious, so neither are my questions. I do like the every-Friday-off part, though.

I agree that is not valid. I believe I have a dogma to not believe certian things unless I can be certian of them. So, I have a dogma myself.

All that would mean is they are not teaching anyone anything, but from the way this sounds it appears they are.😦

I have a mixed reaction to that. Even you believe revelation was closed. Well, kind of.

The golden rule.

Another reason to discount this group of online friends he/she has.
What do they mean by this?
 
Cool. 🙂 I’m more into the Flying Spaghetti Monster, though. :o Ramen.

**So who asked you? **

Why must you butt in to every thread on this entire forum? Don’t you have anything better to do than continuously try to call attention to yourself?

Get a life. Go to Mass–and while you’re at it, learn to shut up.

They could just become Unitarians.

:tsktsk: Srlucado, this was quite rude and unnecessary and will not get someone to go to Mass.

I don’t know what religion you are, but if it’s Christian, consider the words of Christ, Mathew Chapter 7, especially Mathew 7:12:
Do to others whatever you would have them do to you.
ref: Mathew Chpt 7

If you’re agnostic, well, consider the Golden Rule:
“Do unto others as you would have them do unto you.”

Read this person’s posts, and see if you still think it was so uncalled for. I don’t feel any particular compulsion to be nice to trolls. (Yeah, that’s a fault of mine, but to be honest, pretty low on my list of faults to fix.)
