I made a religion (still working on a name)

1. Yes, but we ain't psychic. If someone comes up and says "I am doing this cause of God!" we can safely assume they are doing it because of God. In the same way that if someone went "I am doing this because there is no God!" we can assume that's their reason. Except no one had said this, you are suggesting hidden motivations. Which although very plausible (if not most likely, everyone will have some motivations they keep to themselves) you are at no position or ability to judge or determine them.

Is it theoretically possible for an atheist to start a violent purge of religious people because they are religious? Sure, humanity produces some very messed up people. But do we have any recorded cases (Not assumed from an absence of religion motivation) of that being the motivation? Nope.

2. More precisely, killed because they worshipped/believed something that wasn't there leader. They could have gone around worshipping their local baker and they'd still get killed. It was about praising something other than their leader, not about the fact they were religious.

3. Yea, I would. Because it proves itself to have religious motivations, but it doesn't so it's not a religion. In the same way that if I happened to believe in God that would make me religious. That's not a double standard, that's just fact. Belief/worship of a God is religion.

Do you keep RPing a secret? Is it safe?

It's a hobby. I have many hobbies. Sometimes I talk about them with my friends. Most of them are like 'sounds pretty cool, whatever keeps you happy', rather than anything else. Which is why they're my friends, y'know? Other people, depends if it comes up or not. I don't really care what they think. If they want to be dicks about it, then whatever. They're probably not worth my time anyway.

This is what I'm like, and I seriously don't get why more people don't think like this. :/
I mean seriously, you're better off with friends who are actually your friends and not a bully under a guise.

Spam Quality Insurance

There's a lack of spam in my spam.

PETA to make a MC server

PETA is honestly acting like they're now a trolling joke group rather than serious about what they do. :/

Anger Issues

Is this general anger and stress that you passively feel regardless of your surroundings? Or does it tend to be triggered by something?

If the former, I'd suggest consulting in some kind of expert. Stuff like this is normally what leads people to self-diagnose/google diagnose themselves with something like depression. And that is something serious enough you do not want to ignore it if that is the case, or leave it up to google to decide.

If the latter, my advice would vary by some extent depending on the trigger. But generally you should try work to either remove yourself from the trigger or learn coping techniques to better handle yourself when around said trigger.

Crusade? Please, list one person I hurt let alone killed by making my points here.

Plus once again, you do not see China, North Korea or Russia or saying "Praise be unto there being no God! We do this in the name of no god!" but you see it all the time with religion with cases such as ISIS, Westboro Baptists etc.

And you're completely looking over the fact I already agreed all men can be guilty of such acts, but Religion acts an enhancer... which is essentially my entire argument.

It was actually cause of the Guild's Facebook page that I learned about the New Guild.
If not for that group I would have simply assumed the site was dead for good and would have wandered off.

My parents have found I use derp in lots of usernames.Thank god there are so many 'derps' online that it's so generic they can't find me.

That's not something I see happen often. :/
I guess if you're parents are good with such stuff then just use a common nickname.

The validity of Facebook as a service is determined entirely by the people on your friends list. If your friends suck, Facebook sucks. It's a reflection of the quality of your life and your social circles, really.

Then my quality of life and social circles must be through the roof!

You don't need to use your real name with facebook. :P
I know several people who use different names simply to avoid family and/or acquaintances.

I made a religion (still working on a name)

So Boerd said Were done in the name of Communism, which has as a core tenet the denial of God. If Communism had as a core tenet "Christ was God", you'd call it a religion. The Thirty Years' war and Sack of Constantinople prove that most "religious" conflict is the result of secular reasons anyway. They would have found another reason to fight.Also, you don't get to change the definition of religion.

Denying God with the purpose of treating the Dictator like a God. Nothing in atheism involves worshipping a man like a God.
Also, I'm not changing the definition of religion. I'm just noting that the actions of communism tend to be very similliar to the way religion acts.

Protagonist said Communism is inherently atheistic, though atheism is not inherently communist (objectivism is atheist and basically the opposite of Marxism).

That's a good way of wording it that I hadn't thought of.

Protagonist said However, what Communism does reflect two things:

1. We don't need religion to create dictatorships or worship people.

2. Atheists who believe that religion is detrimental to human progress sometimes commit the same crimes associated with religious extremists.

1. That is true, but it does make it far easier to do so. And acts as a way to get loyalty from people you would otherwise not have the loyalty of.

2. That's also true, but it doesn't mean religion doesn't function as a way to worsen/amplify humanity's more violent and barbaric behaviours and tendencies.
