    Extinction: Looks like Japan is helping the cause, unfortunately.

    We are all doomed........are we?
    Seriously without trying to convert anybody, suggest to those interested read Matthew chapter 24!

    I do have a question if it isn't too much off topic, ok?
    What was the origination of the term atheism?
    Was it thought up by the non-believers, or the believers?
    I really don't put a label on myself and just go on as I feel nature intened for me to.
    Although sometimes I do call myself a non-believer or not superstitious.
    On our wedding license, I am listed as Baptist because the clerk refused to write none in the religion space.
    got to go, I'm rambling again, sorry.

    atheism per se is not really founded by anything or anyone. I think the term simply evolved in context from more primitive notions of disbelief. Some would call it skeptic or free thought. Offcourse the big monotheistic religions would call it satan worshippers, anti-christian, infidels, etc because they were the only ones influenced by the notion of having a god. That would not apply to the Hindu, or Buddhist or other religions since they're God does not require blind obedience and slavery of sorts. Atheism has been around eversince people were around. No one actually founded it.

    Buddha? Please don't show your ignorance. The Meaning of Buddha

    The Hindu Prince never ever claimed he created the world.
