You are benefiting from government spending on things like public transport, police, fire, army, schools, etc. even if you never see a train, cop, fireman, soldier or school in your life. Society works because it is full of people. The better these people are at their jobs, the more productive they are and the better society works. If you don't directly benefit from one of these "socialist" schemes, you benefit from others who do. Look further than your own face and you might see that it makes a lot of sense for the government to fund such things, as it means you spend less and get better service. Laugh if you want, but the rest of the world has figured this out, and if you correlate the amount of spending with the quality of life in these places, you might just wake up.
Your car and gas are not paid for because it doesn't help everyone. In sane areas/countries there is a good public transport system to take you where you want to go, so a car with gas is, for most, a luxury.
You sound like a complete selfish tit. You'll probably die alone, complaining about the government, having forgotten to live your life because of your selfish anger, lacklustre logic, and sense of entitlement.
It's because if some weirdo got in the school the parents would sue the school district into submission. With the guard and the practice in place, they have a scapegoat. That's the thing.
Your whole "submitting to authority" bent makes you sound like this is something frequently on your mind, which might be something you should get checked out. You sound paranoid to fuck.
When Atheist Churches are a staple of atheism just as churches are to theists, you'd have a point.
When Atheist Radio stations preach atheism just as theist radio stations do, you'd have a point.
When there is an "atheist community" you'd have a point.
As it is, you are ascribing the qualities of a organised religion to people whose only common quality is that they don't believe in one or more gods.
You sound ridiculous.
He didn't say killing newborns was a good deed, but that aborting foetuses with Down's Syndrome can (by some) be considered a kindness, due to the suffering inherent in living with Down's.
It doesn't help your argument when you resort to making things up.
Your reading comprehension is ridiculous. Clearly the original author missed some punctuation. The correct way of writing his claim, and the only logical way anyone can honestly interpret it, is as follows:
I don't believe that the universe was created, and is watched over, by an infinite number of tiny, invisible fairies.
I don't know who you think you are trying to persuade with your comical interpretation of the position, as anyone with an ounce of honesty will clearly see that you are trying very hard to make a very childish point.
But then you don't really have a reputation of honest discussion, so this isn't really surprising.
Life is a healthy respect for mother nature laced with greed.
