Who will win, the atheist or the non-atheist?

  2. The non-atheist has faith, therefore his atheist twin brother has no chance!

    OK...two warriors must fight to the death. They are equal in every way, both having equal knowledge of martial arts, equal strength, speed, minds, etc. In fact, they are both identical twins.

    There is only one difference.

    One of them is an atheist and and the other is a religious- having much faith in the religion they believe in.

    Who will die and why?

    The religious nutter will get creamed..hard to fight with that glazed over look,..atheist stays rational, aware, feels grief at both his brother's loss of rationality and then life. It's a cruel world.

    WTF? Your response was there immediately upon posting this...how did you pull that off?

    I mean...normally doesn't it take at least a good 10 seconds after the poll is posted to reply?

    Beware all...Spud is a computer ninja!

    How do we know for sure that the atheist is the rational one? Is there a way to prove it once and for all?

    I think the non-atheist would win, he has more reason to fight, because he draws more strength from his conviction and beliefs. The non-atheist lacks these, not knowing what faith means.

    Its just like in a video game. If a person knows they will have another life after this one, why worry about dieing? If you know you are down to your last life you take less risks.

    The believer will win

    The Atheist will win. The religious brother will sacrifice his own life for his brother.

    It depends.
    It the religious guy a Quaker?
    (for example)
    And then it just depends in general.

    OK guys neither of them are "nutters". This poll is so biased.


    I think the faithful one would win because having belief for a fighter, something to fight for, can improve morale.

    If the Atheist believes in the fallacy of religion as much as he has common sense, he will win.

    theists tend to believe that god is looking over them and thus will be more fatalistic.

    We're assuming here that the atheist has more common sense

    Although I think it is a pretty silly debate, I will join in.

    Keep in mind that the atheist will probably believe that this is the only life and that they wont be going to eternal paradise after they die. So they will value their life more and fight with more desperation.

    It is the theist who believes the invisible and undetectable exists. How is that rational?

    Yes, killing in the name of your god. How quaint. It is with extreme gladness atheists lack this belief and conviction.

    And you can rest assured, atheists DO know what faith means. Theists continuously display the effects of faith, much to the demise of mankind.
