To be an atheist, you don't have to believe that death = nothingness, or that god absolutely does not exist, you just have to lack a belief in a god. Your average agnostic is also an atheist by definition, since they do not explicitly believe that a god exists.

Wikipedia - Negative and positive atheism

Yeah, I know it's Wikipedia. Shut up.

Leave it to the members of this forum to take good news and turn it into a pointless debate.

Nice job, guys.

Well, unless there's somebody who wants to debate against gay marriage, then this thread has pretty much served its purpose.

Yes, because the last few pages regarding religion have definitely been in response to the good news about nationwide legal gay marriage.

But the news has been delivered, so does it really matter what happens to the thread now? It's not like anybody is still trying to talk about the OP anymore, anyway.

That's true. Then again...

Nope, nevermind. You're right.

Marriage is inherently capitalistic, and gays and lesbians being given full membership in our capitalist society only serves to divide the oppressed classes and make the revolution take longer.

You're welcome.

Anyone see what they did at the White House last night?



A couple of my daughter's friends are currently living in DC and went down there and said it was one big massive party outside the gates.
I thought that the Disneyland one was better. Though if you told me this was at Disneyland without any context, I would think it was Disnuss as usual. Still very well done and pretty awesome
