The Confession of Arian Foster

[Ashevolle]

I'm glad my tix are in the upper deck so when Hou comes to town I wont get struck by the lightening aiming for him. But that implies he actually plays instead of being injured.

I hope he asks his surgeon and nurses not to pray over him before his surgery this week. That should work out well if it goes south

swing and a miss

It's not a risk at all. Many Christians don't believe in hell either. Nor do the Jews. A lot of them believe that those who are not saved will not experience a rebirth and eternal life. Their souls will simply be destroyed.

You serious brah? :stop:

Very good to see that a professional athlete is openly atheist...Props to Arian, and hopefully this encourages others to stand up to religious pressure.

Lol, religious pressure? From who?

You serious brah? :stop:

I am. Look in to annihilationism. There's very little in the bible that even mentions hell, and most of it is a mistranslation.

I'm just going to show myself out....

Good for you AF. I applaud your honesty.

You serious Clark?

 

[VOLatile]

More power to him. We need more people like him to drown out the god fearing, hate spewing jerks.

That's not the same as not believing in hell.

Lots of people dont believe in hell. Its pretty ridiculous when you think about it.

You serious Clark?

Yes, tell me about this religious pressure you and Arian Foster face?

 

[VolsSportsFan]

Yes, tell me about this religious pressure you and Arian Foster face?

The guy who's criticized him about being an atheist doesn't think he'll get any pressure for being an atheist?

You're calling an anonymous message board post "pressure"? Really?

Ummm, yeah it is. Hell is a place of eternal torment. If you no longer exist, you can't be eternally tormented.

 

[VolsSportsFan]

I bet you're winning hearts and minds by calling what people consider sacred "superstitious mambo-jumbo"

And yeah I'm sure you're equally respectful of other religions' "sacred" beliefs.

You really don't think these type comments aren't going to fly at him in real life? Really?

And if you don't think that's pressure, then Tebow never faced any pressure either.

Last time I checked, atheists have pretty much had their way in regards to the role of religion and Christianity in public life. Pressure? Smh

You stated that hell isn't really mentioned in the New Testament and is a bad translation. That may be true, but there are still tons of Christians that believe in hell.

Whether what they believe is real or not, or is even based on what they think it is, is a different topic.

That's called "separation of church and state."

 

[Underachievers]

For a simple minded person maybe.

Simple minded? Funny how libs and atheists call people of faith simple/closed minded. Just because someone chooses to live a life of faith doesn't make them ignorant or simple minded.

What planet have you lived on the past 200 years?

Why is "In God We Trust" on money? Christian pressure.
Why was "under God" shoehorned into the Pledge of Allegiance? Christian Pressure.

You are out of your freakin' mind if you think atheists have "had their way".

Stop playing the victim, I never said all people of faith, I said people who broke down his scenario were being simplistic.

You obviously don't understand what the "separation of church and state" is. Its purpose is to keep the state out of the church. Study history often?

I think it's pretty clear you don't know what it is.

InB4 "show me in the Constitution where separation of church and state is".
