Are Atheists Good People part 4


Hey guys! If the first story kept your interest, you will crave this one, almost as much as LeBron wants another ring. If you are just tuning in, you should read part 1 and 2; disclaimer number one, this is not about Lebron James. With that out the way, let’s tackle our second disclaimer; “all atheists are bad.” This is simply not true. All religious people are not good. In every crowd there are some goats mixed with the sheep – meaning, from a distance you cannot tell whether or not they are what they proclaim to be. Luckily, after getting closer and more personal, one can clearly differentiate sheep from goats. In other words, who walks the talk. That still leaves this question: why do atheists, as a whole, receive a bad rep? “It is natural to believe in God, so more intelligent individuals are more likely to be atheists.” (psychologytoday) Atheists, for the most part, believe they are more intelligent beings than the average churchgoer. They have the statistics and numerous websites to back them up. “Those who identify themselves as 'not at all religious' in early adulthood have a mean childhood IQ of 103.09, whereas those who identifythemselves as 'very religious' in early adulthood have a mean childhood IQ of 97.14.”
           While the numbers are indisputable, whether or not these statistics are skewed is another article. Here’s a hint, only 5 percent of the population identifies as an atheist. The point being, nobody, regardless of religion, savors the words that label them as three-string (referring to education levels). Some people cannot handle being second-string; it's all about being first-string. Nonetheless, the tea is only stirred further with a heart attacking (because of the weight of sugar on the spoon) spoonful of obnoxiousness (“You Believe in God?” followed by ha-has and you must be delusional). Then you have it, a steaming hot, bitter sweet tea that advertises all atheists as repugnant (equaling their bad reputation). While this is suitable for some (an atheist who is obnoxious and part take in belittling others), it is not for others. Besides, the same can be said for churchgoers, some treat atheists with the same hand shaking (because of weight) spoonful of obnoxiousness; in the process, they spill over the bag of sugar – that being where the obnoxiousness is coming from – because it's God's will (See Hate Here); in doing so, religious people only push the atheists further away. Nonetheless, others, like the other atheist , do not – they know that all sugar is not good for them. 

One out of three Americans are obese. The same can be said for the portion of atheists and religious people that are extremist (one out of three of them are extremest) – I'm referring to my pun at the end of post one. Two-thirds of us (atheist and religious people) are tolerant and most likely in shape. Oddly enough, the tolerant usually never meet. This begins the unraveling as to why this argument exists."Are atheists good people." The intolerant have nothing but synthetic accusations; the tolerant (who never meet the oppositing) cannot swallow it and ensues on a Google search for confirmation – maybe how you found this article. So, who was the first extremest and how was he or she created? That's a question that may never be answered. We do know is this: Chances of atheists and religious folks agreeing on the creation or origin of anything, are as likely as Elvis Pressely and Tupac doing a duet in 2014. Atheist might think less than two-thirds of religious people are tolerant. However, just like the statistic for the education levels, the statistics might seem misleading. One has to remember, if 73 % of people are religious, 5% are atheist, and the population is about ten million, there would be 2,409,000 intolerant religious people and merely 165,000 intolerant atheists That's one-third of their population, hence why I said the statistics about atheist being more intelligent were skewed. There is a great opportunity for odd balls to be part of the selection process, with a larger population. The next blog will be about something key, which I purposely left out of this one. Hope to have you read again. Please comment!
