According to research ATHEISM leads to despair and suicide.

Hmm... That's odd. Maybe they were asking the wrong people?
I have been in deep despair before and suicide was the farthest thought from my mind. What kept me going was "tomorrow." Tomorrow always provides another chance to fix a bad situation. Far as I know-I only get one life and I kinda like it. Dunno why on earth I'd wanna end it prematurely no matter how bad it might get.
There's too much stuff I haven't seen and done yet.
I have to agree with Road Puppy here.
If I was an atheist, the last thing I would want to do is off myself. No matter how bad life got
suicide would be the opposite of what I would be thinking of. In my 20's I didn't know for sure about
anything. I thought many a times about death and it scarred the crap out of me.
Skippy
It looks like suicidal tendencies are genetic. That doesn't surprise me. As time goes on, I think we will find that a lot of things we thought were caused by our environment turn out to be genetic. Hmm...an atheist gene? A religion gene? who knows.
/Sigh.
this is as silly as the one about Jesus making people fat.
Hi Deep,
Happy to see you back in almost your original hat!!! I suppose we can now presume that BJBG has been laid to rest and we will now have our old buddy, Deep, with us full time.
See, it is like I have always said -- wait long enough and all good things return. I'm hanging on to my 1960s/70s flare bottom pants -- they are much more comfortable than the skinny peg-leg look we have today. So, I guess you are like our flare bottom pants -- returned to make us comfortable. Okay, we can back up; to make we Christians stay alert and on our toes; lest you slip some Darwin tablets in on us.
Welcome back, my Friend,
Bill
Bill,
Look closely. (Deep.Fat), aka Deep dot Fat, is a fraud. It is your friend buffalo. I've always suspected that he wants to be me.
Thanks anyway.

Hi Deep,
Sorry for the confusion. With a world of posting names, including real names, I have never understood why anyone would want to hijack another person's posting name. Let's all play nice and quit trying to confuse our Forum Friends. We have no reason to duplicate posting names and avatars -- or have one so similar as to confuse our Forum Friends -- in an attempt to make another look bad. Hey, we can all dig a deep enough hole for ourselves -- without someone taking our persona and trying to help! Just my thoughts!
God bless, have a wonderful, blessed day,
Bill
Dude! With some of the posts you've been making lately...I can think of a few "group sessions" you qualify for...
LOL! Cagey, if you find one called "People Who Ought to Know Better But Pretend Not To", join immediately.
I have "faith" that you can contribute on a higher level.

Buff is obviously off his medication again. He generally just becomes incoherent, but it seems schizophrenia is also involved.
Wouldn't it be more appropriate, and mature, to refrain from cursing one another?
Once one resorts to cursing, instead of conducting a well thought out response, credibility of the poster begins to be questionable.
Shouldn't you all try to be a little more mature?

I agree cage but nsns thinks his atheism gives him license to say, unchallenged, any hateful thing he wishes to say; not true as you have witnessed.
Nsns started it. He owes an apology to mankind in general.
as a matter of fact I apologize to mankind in general for calling my fran nsns a ---.

Crust.
I see this claim often.
If there is ever anything I say that you don’t understand please ask for an analogy.
I assume, when I post, that most on here are well read and have a vocabulary greater than 6th grade level.
It’s simple , if you cannot comprehend what I say, ask for an analogy or just assume when you see a post by me that likely it is going to be over your head.
Lucky for me I’m from the generation whose noggin is not compromised by any use of drugs or chemicals.
You do appear kinda slow there old crust.
If you are on a mission to assist the mentally ill I think slim and uno will keep you busy there doctor.
Don't worry about me Buff. My mental state and intelligence obviously far exceed yours. I understand that the ramblings of insanity seem coherent to the insane mind, and won't press your limited faculties with needless anxiety. Calm yourself, the fog will clear shortly.
TNX Crust. I can always count on you.
