But the problem is I AM an atheist, which has never caused any harm to anyone. A serial rapist is someone who has caused a lot of harm to a lot of people. A person like my mom looks at the two, and thinks they are about morally on par with each other at best.

That doesn't sound like what you originally said. You said she would rather you be a serial rapist. Sounds like she just likes serial rapists and atheists the same

My moms religion told her that not believing in God is the worst thing you can do and makes you the worst kind of person. Even when there are serial killers and rapists walking around.

She doesnt. She sees someone who doesnt believe in God as the worst thing you can be. Because someone who doesnt believe in God always goes to Hell, while a serial rapist can always ask for forgiveness

My dad is the same way and I used a similar argument. Not that I'm claiming to be atheist but we were drinking beer and we have good philosophical discussions. Anyway, it is what it is, you won't change their mind so just agree to disagree

It's logical from her perspective. As a serial rapist you can always repent. As an atheist, you are destined to be damned in Hell for all of eternity. Interesting how they can use logic when it suits them.

It's not though in light of Jesus' sermon in Matthew 7

Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat: Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it. Beware of false prophets, which come to you in sheep's clothing, but inwardly they are ravening wolves. Ye shall know them by their fruits. Do men gather grapes of thorns, or figs of thistles? Even so every good tree bringeth forth good fruit; but a corrupt tree bringeth forth evil fruit. A good tree cannot bring forth evil fruit, neither can a corrupt tree bring forth good fruit. Every tree that bringeth not forth good fruit is hewn down, and cast into the fire. Wherefore by their fruits ye shall know them. Not every one that saith unto me, Lord, Lord, shall enter into the kingdom of heaven; but he that doeth the will of my Father which is in heaven. Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

Which is why I have to question TC's sincerity with which he's accusing his mother. If she indeed thinks this way then yeah, there's a problem.

So no one is going to point out the false equivalency that TC is using in order to further his argument? It seems like TC has a barebones understanding of his mothers faith at best and is responding from pure emotion and misplaced self-righteousness.

Idk, my moms a Baptist. Accepting Jesus as your savior is the only way, and the only requirement for going to heaven, and not spending eternity in Hell.

So Im causing a problem by having different beliefs? Or my family is causing problems by not accepting that I have different beliefs or respecting my capacity to think for myself?

Okay. Did you ask her specifically about the rapist scenario? Because right now it just sounds like shes disappointed youre living differently from her, which, while shitty, is hardly the worst thing in the world.

No, because when I was a kid I didnt know what rape was. But I asked her about murder, and her answer was the same. Since youre all pardoning her logic, surely you can pardon me for using logic to come to a conclusion.

Disagree
The things that were done to me emotionally and mentally as a result of parental concern are irreversible.

TC Im sorry your mother is being a shitheel to you. Im also an atheist and I have people in my family who think just like that.

Dude, religious people in general are absolutely terrible at empathizing and seeing things from someone elses perspective, and many of the responses to this topic have done a great job of proving it for me. For them, the black and whiteness of The Bible is right, everything else is wrong is the only important thing, and thats why you get people like this (post #29 if you need the full context);

The bolded statement isnt exclusive to religious people. Youre claiming to be logical while clearly reasoning from an emotional perspective.

We cannot know with certainty if God or Christ exists. They COULD. Then again there COULD be a giant reptilian bird in charge of everything. Can we be CERTAIN there isn't? NO, so it's pointless to talk about. Now say it with me.
