Celebrating Ramadan as an Atheist?

I think its wonderful that you are wanting to fast Ramadan. It's a sentiment that many Muslims would appreciate, for sure. I'm not going to say, "well you shouldn't do this, you shouldn't do that" because you aren't a Muslim fasting Ramadan. I will say though that if you want to get the full benefit of fasting without praying and etc, I would suggest dressing modestly and not wearing makeup. If you wanted to take it a step further, I would even suggest that for one day you cover your head, just to see the difference in how individuals view and treat you. That way not only are you just fasting Ramadan, but you will almost get a glimpse into the life of a Muslim girl. I would also suggest, that one of the days you fast, that maybe you could go to a Mosque, just to see what they do during night prayers. Not to participate as such, just as an observer. At my mosque there have been a few times when someone came in who wasn't a Muslim, just to sit in and see what we do. From the reactions it seemed they were surprised at how much laughter and joking and overall a good time we had. (This was not during prayer, this is a weekly get together to study the Quran and then ask questions about Islam in general) But if nothing else, just fasting to see what its like is still a great thing, and I pray you have an easy fast and learn from the experience. =)

Atheists,agnostics and believers?

Atheists,agnostics and believers?

Agnostic is a word that was invented in 1869. In Europe they call them Monists. They are people who live in a fog bank and make guesses about God usually with a racist motive.

You see, once the Civil War proved once and for all that people could not enslave another race of people using the Bible, there became a need for a new ethic that would allow for white racism and genocide. Monism and agnosticism fit the bill perfectly. Here you had an undefinable "god force" that had no implied ethic at all. This means the founders of this new religion could invent their own ethics that lined up with their goals of white domination.

On the day Hitler took power the Monist League of Germany disbanded as an act of solidarity to him. Most of the die-hard brown shirts and SS officers were devoted Monists.

Atheism is the playground of theology. It is a place where spiritual infants crawl in the mud of sin clawing over each other to get to the spotlight of vanity.

Agnosticism is the fog of theology. A place where luke-warm souls grope in the dark for an idea about God that fits their fickle sensibilities.

Added: The first time the word "agnostic" was ever used was in 1869. I provided the evidence and proof. Agnostics are in no way more humble than Atheists. Not even a little bit. Because you see an Atheist believes a lie unto themselves. If they were placed on a polygraph machine and asked about God, their answers would register as truthful.

Not an Agnostic. An agnostic believes everything is in some small way a lie and only they can define what is true. This truth changes as the mood fits. This type of person believes in nothing but themselves. They have no dogma, very little fellowship, insane clergy like Ernst Haeckel, and a level of self-worship that rivals Atheism.

Atheists: if Christians and the like are "always in your face", why come to a religious forum?

We're pretty populous here. In fact, I'd daresay we're more populous here than in the actual public itself. 10% of society is Atheist, and way more than 10% of R&S is Atheist, reason enough to find community and solidarity here. Another reason is entertainment. We enjoy sharing our non-beliefs and refuting your beliefs. Finally, there's a slim hope of reaching you and bolstering our numbers. The more of us there are, the louder our voice will be in congress, the supreme court, and the exective branch of government.

All in all, this is a win-win-win situation for Atheists. Thanks for bringing it up.
