R&S ATHEISTS: When someone rants on and on about a real;, literal, and inescapable?

'hell', and then threatens someone with that 'hell' if their beliefs do not conform to a set of guidelines produced by a bunch of ignorant, flea-bitten, goat-herding primitives, is that person any better, brighter, or more modern in his or her approach to life than that bunch of flea-bitten primitives who wrote the 'bible'?
EDIT: should be '...real, literal, and..." I have no idea from whence cameth the semicolon.
 
Ian Roxburgh, Professor of Applied Mathematics, Queen Mary College, London, observes: ‘The universe is astonishing uniform. No matter which way we look, the universe has the same constituents in the same proportions. The laws of physics discovered on earth contain arbitrary numbers, like the ratio of an electron to the mass of a proton, which is roughly 1840 to one. But these turn out to be the same in all places at all times. Did a creator arbitrarily choose these numbers? Or must these numbers have the particular uniform value we observe for the universe to exist?’
This fact clearly indicates that the universe is forever under the control of a supreme being- its Creator and Sovereign: God.
‘If there is a God, why is He not visible to us?’ This is a question often put by atheists and nihilists, because they feel that there being no possible answer to this question within the framework of the physical sciences, this in itself is a kind of proof that there is no God. But they forget that we are living in a world where we have no choice but to believe in many things which are quite beyond observation. The neutrino is a case in point. This particle, which is one of the group of particles making up an atom, is believed to have no electric charge in it, and to have no mass. As a scientist would put it, ‘The neutrino is a tiny bundle of nothing.’ Why do we feel compelled to accept the existence of a particle that is a ‘bundle of nothing?’ The reason is that the atom has certain properties which cannot be accounted for in any other way except by that of presuming that a non-particle is contained in the fabric of each atom. One of the amazing properties of the supposed neutrino is its capacity to penetrate any body of mass unhindered. It is claimed that it can pass through the whole of the globe in its progress. In the United States, experiments are underway to harness this property of the neutrino for the benefit of mankind. Scientists believe that if this property of the neutrino can be used, the world of communications will be revolutionized.
‘Seeing’ things in the universe, in a purely optical sense, is so impossible scientifically that scientific philosophers are divided in their opinion as to whether the universe should be regarded as an objective reality or just a subjective phenomenon.
Francis Bacon, the famous philosopher, has rightly said that a little knowledge of science makes man an atheist, but an in-depth study of science makes him a believer in God.
 
No, I think that calling the ancient people a bunch of "primitives" is needless slander. Sure, they're turning back the clock, but it's not because they have evaluated it on it's merits-for them it's an emotional issue.
 
Yes as I see it the way an average persons life goes every dead person would be in hell.Oh course they do believe that confession will free them of all sins so they can start again
 
I think when someone rants on like that and threatens, then they pretty much are creating what it is they are ranting about, don't you? so blessed are the peacemaker's we will be called children of God..
