Atheist Peace Lyrics
I think this song is about how there has been so much war in human history, many do to religious conflicts.
"Atheist Peace" is a play off the phrase "Holy War" because they are exact opposites.
Let's see, 7 crusades, "Deus lo vult", inquisition for more than 500 years and rejecting scientific facts. Yeah, religion is totally harmless. Besides, how do you know Hitler was atheist? He was good friends with the catholic church and the pope himself. There goes your good Christian thought, fucking hypocrite.

Read more into Hitler Dumb ass. You gotta look pretty deep but you would rather be indoctrinated by a hypocrite musician. I know an atheist is where I wanna go for spiritual answers. the catholics are not my version of spiritualality.

"We tolerate no one in our ranks who attacks the ideas of Christianity. Our movement is Christian." ~Adolf Hitler October 27, 1928.
Also, everyone is an atheist; some just go one god farther.
sorrynametaken.....you fucking totally hit the nail on the head....I personally dont believe in god and I think the world would be a better place without religion.( just my opinion don't fucking flip) But yeah a very good Bad Religion song but my favorite is No Substance
Hell is the world with out God. Hell is your choice. Ooop's if you don't believe in God then hell doesn"t exist.

Yeah, cause a god that loves everyone would really condemn people do a fate of unimaginable horror. and according to religion few are going to heaven anyway, because nobody is perfect, and plenty of sects of christianity all say if you aren't part of THAT sect you go to hell, so if chirsitanity is correct then we all go to hell period. also I don't want to be part of a religion that thinks that priests who molest little kids can still go to heaven. I quite enjoy my life without god. god brings immorality under...

I quite enjoy my life without god. god brings immorality under the guise of morality. have you seen what people will do in the name of god? and besides, your all powerful god doesn't need to be worshiped. if its really all powerful it could create a creature just to worship it. or it would show itself and then get all the worship it needs. lets say you have an ant farm, would you honestly care if they worshiped you? its not like they could help you do anything you could already do

I heard an interview somewhere where Graffin said that this song was an attack on the belief that if you're an atheist, you're supposed to be combative and fight with people of various religious affiliations.
I'm not quite sure how that works, but there you go.
I personally wouldn't like to rid the world of Religion, at all. I am an atheist through and through, but I think that the world would be shit if we all believed in the same thing - where would the debates be? I respect people's rights to have a religion of course, but I do not believe churches should be tax-free, because they're becoming businesses.
I'm all for trying to convince people of atheistic arguments but if I had the chance tomorrow to rid the world of religion.. I wouldn't do it for the aforementioned reason.
Agnosticism isn't logical, it's a fence sittting position. Marty1982 is completely wrong. For one, only idiot is good out of the fear of punishment and if nobody believed in god then the leaders wouldn't be hearing the crazy ass voice of their imaginary friend which told them to go forth and take the blade to all the infidels. Interesting how no wars have been started out of atheism, Stalin and Hitler don't count, their movements were out of political ideologies, and Hitler was a catholic. Other than the fucking long rant, it's an excellent song. Blackbird 1565 hit the nail on the head.
For the people who are describing themselves as agnostic, agnosticism is completely different from theism and atheism. Agnosticism deals with what you know, while theism and atheism deals in what you believe. Theism describes belief in a god, and atheism decscribed no belief in a god, not belief in no god. What is described as 'strong atheism' should really be call non-theism.
People who say that the threat of hell and promise of heaven keep people in line need to review the christian religion. The christian bible says that faith gets you into heaven, not deeds. The oldest argument illustrating this is asserting that Hitler, a catholic, could get into heaven, as long as he believes in Jesus, while Gandhi would go to hell for his lack of that belief. There is no justice in this kind of judgement, and there's nothing to stop any christian from going genocidal.
And for those who say that religion is the only reason for war, you are right. It is merely a tool that drives differing opinions against each other. But, would you let 3rd graders take guns to school?
Anyway, the song is awesome. I just heard it 2 hours ago, and now I love it.
I never got to my main point:
It's naiive to believe that without religion there would be no war.
You're really fooling yourself if you think believing in the Tooth Fairy is going to help anything in this world. Give me a fucking break.
If it isn't always about war, then tell me, where are the wars about our preferences in pizza toppings? Where was the last war concerning who watches Oprah? Or about an offensive skin condition on some political leader?
It's always about religion. And since there is, in fact, no God/Jesus/Muhammad/Mishna/whathaveyou, you're all murderers. Murderers who have the nerve to look down on the logical-minded atheists who have picked out the frauds from day one.
I do, however, agree that there's a disappointing amount of ignorance on Songmeanings.net over how the Christian religion actually works. I'm sorry, but just as there are plenty of hypocritical pastors/priests out there, there are also many hypocritical/fraudulant atheists out there too. Just as a Christian can't blindly follow what a pastor preaches, an atheist shouldn't blindly follow what people like Richard Dawkins say either.
