Theism and Atheism

I am going to explain exactly why the following picture pisses me off:


This poster shows nothing but the staggering quantity of ignorance radiating from its creator(s). Which is not to say that it holds no bearing - I have to agree that the Big Bang Theory is not the greatest scientific theory ever created. Point being it is not the only possible atheistic belief. Claiming that all atheists believe that nothing exploded to create everything is like saying that every single person on this planet who believes in god is catholic. Does that claim come off as really fucking stupid to anyone other than me?

Any person who believes in one or more gods is lumped into this one gigantic category called Theism, and anyone who does not believe in a god is lumped into another category called Atheism. Just like Theism, Atheism has many different beliefs and theories, and is just as broad as Theism.

Don't get me wrong, I don't have a problem with people believing in one or more deities, however, I do have a problem with people trying to claim that I'm going to go to hell for not believing in a god, or more specifically, their god. If all religions claim that anyone who has a different religion than them is going to hell, then every single fucking person on this planet is going to hell.

Where you will be able to listen to Black Sabbath for all of eternity.



P.S.
Entropy is fake.
