Arrest warrants have been issued for four Iraqis on atheism charges, according to Dhi Qar province's Garraf district judiciary. The announcement garnered quite a reaction on media and social networks, as some say these hunts infringe on the rights of the Iraqi people, whose constitution guarantees them freedom of belief and expression. Other observers say the campaign has political aspects.
An atheistic society is a free thinking society that cannot be easily controlled like religious sheep can. It's purely a Machiavellian maneuver to preserve and maintain power.
Andrew Anderson
This is why North Korea is known as the most free thinking society in the world
Jose Gomez
Good! Just like Europeans put people in prison for wrong think and Nazism since they view it a threat to society, we should be able to protect society of cancer that is atheism. Indoctrinating children to atheism and having the "freedom" to spread degeneracy, porn and marxism won't be allowed. Fuck your "freedom" of jewing. Atheists BTFO.
Ethan Young
and not one atheist will suddenly have anything to say about it cowards btfo
they worship their leader
Brody Myers
Worshiping "Great Leader" is the antithesis of atheism. Communism is a religion where the god is the state, but more realistically the leader, so shit example on your part tbh.
If we’re going to look at it like that, then every individual is in fact religious, because every individual has something they admire greatly, even if they don’t overtly worship it.
You can admire something without submitting your will to its authority, especially when that authority is rooted in either bronze age superstition or 20th century flawed economic theory.
Grayson Harris
Atheists criticize religion on the grounds that it’s baseless bronze age superstition, and therefore irrational, but communist leaders are corporeal beings, and therefore admiring them and submitting to their authority isn’t the same as religion, which requires faith.
Aaron Young
You are right though. Nothing controls the atheist society. Even the atheist himself will not control himself. Which is why atheist socities always collapse.
Brody Murphy
The religious impulse is submission to authority, so it doesn't really matter whether the object of veneration is real or imagined. It's the same disease which is slavery and a willful turning away from independent thinking. It's an infantile impulse which appeals manly to people who afraid to take responsibility for their own lives.
Everyone is a slave to their desires. Try and turn away from your desires, and keep away. Go ahead. Do it now. I'm waiting.
Colton Murphy
It's usually roleplay, so no, unless it's embraced as a lifestyle, in which case, I wouldn't call it a religion as much as a related form of mental illness
Jose Gomez
So you have a fetish for commies? Good for you.
Brayden Wilson
But what about religions which explicitly promote rejection of authority?
Brody Hill
When did I say that? A group of people who don't believe in mythical deities means they think alike on every issue? Nice semantics, fam
Kevin Peterson
So what you’re saying is that if they were religious then they would think the same on every issue?
Angel James
If you really want to debate, you'll have to flesh out your arguments instead of grasping at straws more and more desperately and vaguely
Nicholas Reed
Why do you keep trying to put words into my mouth? Is it because you don't actually have an argument?
Lucas Martin
what did he mean by this?
James Walker
What you implied was that a homogeneously atheist society would be freethinking because they still think differently on different issues, but a homogenously Christian one would be unfree for doing the same.
Chase Bell
It's called an idiom, Pajeet. Here's another one: Maybe if you keep throwing spaghetti at the wall, something might stick.
Gavin Wood
But how was I grasping at straws though? You rejected my point on the basis that it was grasping at straws, but still haven’t explained how.
Charles Jackson
Maybe you need to brush up on your reading comprehension skills and try again:
The theme of the post is about the relative ease of controlling two groups of people, not whether or not they think alike on every issue. Religious people are already primed for submission and blind obedience to authority, and atheists, generally aren't. Does that clear things up for you?
Jackson Nguyen
Atheism and statism are strongly correlated. I definitely do not trust the average atheist to advocate freedom from authority.
Lucas Gonzalez
Uh oh, I'm fucked as far as any upcoming 'spring break Baghdad' plans…
I suppose it works out for the better, since Iraqi girls look like shit in a burka swimsuit, and the don't even have Rohypnol available…
Nicholas Lewis
FUCK OFF HERE JOHNNY
Alexander Martinez
You're assuming that all atheists are statists.
Juan Rivera
How tho?
Josiah Torres
You’re assuming that all religious are statists.
Sebastian Wilson
If you really don't understand how I'm not going to spoonfeed you, so you can claim you "won" the debate and scamper off.
No, I'm assuming they are easily controlled. Try to keep up
Leo Carter
Silly Husseiniggers… If there were actually a 'god', they would've never existed in the first place
Hurdurr only atheists can think. Religion is set of laws that you have the will to follow or not. No one is forced to follow anything. Your only allowed to think atheism is the correct answer lol.
I never said there was anything wrong with it. I just think you’re being a pretentious faggot for thinking being atheist somehow put you on a higher level of thinking then us mere religious sheep.
Parker James
Exactly Johnny. And now it’s time to go back to school.
(won't that pompous douchebag be surprised in 47 minutes when my paper airplane comes through his mother's air conditioning vent in her basement and pokes his eye out)
Brandon Bell
…what?
Stop trying to be clever and use the school chromebook for something productive, like getting some extra homework done.
Religious people are easily triggered because confronting anything that challenges you on a logical basis threatens the overly emotional and infantile need for security and meaning. You crave a complete model that puts all the mysteries and uncertainties of life into nice tidy boxes of faith that require no analytical thinking, just blind obedience and submission.
Gabriel Cruz
My knees are shaking.
Juan Russell
Also, I am a self-aggrandizing namefag punk who enjoys being overly verbose, is too old for the chans, and I do not care whatsoever about your supposed chan culture.
I just want to be a self-righteous prick at all times, weighing in on every topic with great aplomb; because my opinions, and the way I express them are worth more to you little Millenial shits than you will ever understand.
Why do you cherish your pseudonymity anyway, anons? You should be more like me – a 54 year old washed out husk of a man, desperately trying to shore up my last shred of dignity by bragging about my great achievements in life and sharing my every thought and opinion with teenage autists on a Mongolian underwater basket-weaving website.
I think I’ve just discovered why so many atheists still live with their mothers.
Isaiah Davis

Thomas Sullivan
try again when you have an actual argument
Easton Reed
Nothing gets by YOU, huh ?…
Joshua Morris
ironic, because in all actuality, I've always found the exact opposite to be true. isn't that strange?
Jayden Sanchez
I wasn’t attacking you. I was attacking your argument that seeking higher meaning is inherently negative.
James Martin
Maybe we all are. Get off your egoic high horse and recognise non-duality for what it is
Christopher Anderson
If nobody else is going to do it, I WILL…
*stands and applauds you*
Hunter Martinez
isn't atheism a complete model though? Assuming naturalism rather than nu-atheism? Otherwise it'd be agnosticism?
Grayson Watson
ok
Noah Collins
I was making a clever retort, which is what you’ve been trying to do this entire thread. You should realize by now that there doesn’t have to be any actual substance behind it.
Carter Gomez
Much like the need to believe in an imaginary Jolly Green Giant in the sky, you seem to think I give a flying fuck about your (or anybody else's) alleged 'culture', which has earned my steadfast floccinaucinihilipilification, as always…
…see how easy that was?

you're joking… right?

FUCKBOY RULEBOOK NUMBER ONE:

Lincoln Flores
I don't believe in Santa Claus either, but since I can't prove a negative, semantics fags will argue that I must be "arrogant" for believing something I can't prove. That's the best counterargument they have against common sense (i.e. not believing in imaginary sky wizards). As far as searching for higher meaning. I think it's mainly the people who perceive their own lives as meaningless or life itself as meaningless who are inclined to seek a ready-made solution which soothes them emotionally and gives them all the answers. Just don't try to pretend it's an intellectual pursuit instead of a desperate search for emotional refuge.
Logan Parker
This is exactly why the original suggestion was first written. For idiots like you, Johnny boy!
Lincoln Moore
Once again, nice work. You're brilliant, sir
Lurk my scrotum with your diminutive chin, fuckface
Ian Anderson
Dub dubs confirms. I am an idiot.
Julian Lopez
There are plenty of intellectual arguments for religion, such as the cosmological argument of the prime mover.
Ethan Young
Atheists BTFO in Iraq makes me happy not triggered. Nice try though.
Brody Perry
Is this the final showdown bread where JohnnyNeptune finally decides to stop namefagging here? Dis gun b gud!
My friend named Stu was a physicist who worked for a defense contractor in Huntsville Alabama (in a literal underground building that was 9 stories completely understand the ground) and since the mathematicians and scientists on the original darknet had encouraged eachother to invite artists, writers & musicians to join and make things more eclectic, he hooked me up with my old Commodore Amiga…
Since April 21st is going to mark the 26th Anniversary of me 'namefagging' online, it would be silly for you to expect me to stop doing what I do.
you'd have more luck preparing for the return of your imaginary 'jesus'.
Carter Reyes
Ironically, the only reason you embrace atheis is because it makes you feel special and smarter than those around you. If an atheist society were ever actually achieved then you would immediately convert to religion and claim that anyone who followed atheism was an idiot.
Colton Clark
No. Nobody said anything ITT. Johnny boy just got BTFO is all.
Isaac Thompson
god damn autoincorrect typos

Cameron Evans
Dude, they did not invite you because you're an artist! They invited you because you're an AUTIST.
as you've seen demonstrated here today, it's not ME who tries to turn 'every thread I post in' into a thread about me.
in fact, I never do that. It's the OTHER PEOPLE who destroy perfectly good threads by focusing on my presence. Then they turn and point their fingers in my direction, and accuse me of 'derailing' things.
Bullshit… I just came here to ridicule religion and repugnant Iraqis…
Kek! Blaming "others"! What else can be expected from a self-absorbed washout like you? You know how "blame" is spelled, don't you? B Lame You are lame, Johnny boy. Cut off the ego at the root, or don't. We're waiting…
