Out of the three, I think the Hulk was the most rational

But they aren't gods, they're aliens.

Aznmidgetboy · 2012-10-30T18:46:24+00:00

There is a "god" called "The One Above All", though some just consider him the strongest character in the universe and not actually god.

Argue about the religious beliefs of fictional characters.

Sir_Nivag · 2012-10-30T18:23:07+00:00

Hmmm I don't remember Thor ever getting the crap kicked out of him. I remember a couple of evenly matched fights and Hulk punching him in the face pretty hard but not enough to phase him.

Nacamaka · 2012-10-30T16:35:46+00:00

This shit again?!

SG_Dave · 2012-10-30T17:48:16+00:00

I can't even remember lines where CA and IM state they are athiest.

jonathanrdt · 2012-10-30T17:44:52+00:00

...Puny god...

JangSaverem · 2012-10-30T19:30:57+00:00

They are just really strong aliens is all. Creatures from different dimensions would likely be seen as a type of "God" but really they are only named as such due to their abilities that we cannot understand. If anything they are just Demi-gods and Captain and Tony wouldnt have any changing view of "God" because of meeting them.

Grizmeer · 2012-10-30T18:45:50+00:00

When did Ironman say he was an atheist?

GaryOak92 · 2012-10-30T18:40:54+00:00

Technically they were Demigods

abillonfire · 2012-10-30T18:52:46+00:00

When does Tony Stark ever say he's an atheist? I can't find any evidence for that

RnRaintnoisepolution · 2012-10-30T20:31:59+00:00

They seem more like Extradimensional aliens with super-human ability's to me.

But that's just me

EDIT: extra words

Faithhandler · 2012-10-30T19:02:05+00:00

In a universe filled with people who can literally flick planets out of orbit, what does it really mean to be a "god"?

bluemirror · 2012-10-30T19:23:12+00:00

"Puny God"

dubstrubs · 2012-10-30T19:27:08+00:00

remember when the hulk comes out in the aircraft carrier, and him and thor are going at it? the fight seems pretty even at first, but thors getting his ass handed to him before they send the jet to distract the hulk. hes all bloodied up, im sure thats what its referencing.

thorns0014 · 2012-10-30T20:24:00+00:00

A line in Thor was, "when you go to earth, just throw a little lightning around and they think you are a god"

skwirrlmaster · 2012-10-30T19:08:13+00:00

Technically Cap is absolutely correct since Christians worship a God that is essentially "The One Above All"

He is as far beyond the Living Tribunal as the Living Tribunal is beyond man.

dosophil · 2012-10-30T18:49:54+00:00

Seriously, stop reposting this. I have seen it way too many times on /r/atheism or /r/funny. Please, stop.

CJGibson · 2012-10-30T18:53:16+00:00

Doesn't Christianity actually allow for the existence of other gods. I mean, one of the commandments is "Thou shalt have no other gods before me." It's not even "Thou shalt have no other gods." It just says that the God of Abraham should be your numero uno god. Your go-to god guy. The other ones have to take a back seat.

Even if you interpret that to mean that Christians shouldn't worship other gods in any way, doesn't it kind of explicitly make room for the existence of other gods (that you're not supposed to worship)?

Colemans2014 · 2012-10-30T18:10:21+00:00

Theyre from another demention so they arent really gods. Physics are different there so they arent magic, its science to them.

Eyeball75 · 2012-10-30T18:38:53+00:00

Pretty much a draw with Thor I think. Loki, on the other hand, got his fucking head smashed in.

daStronksie · 2012-10-30T19:10:48+00:00

Good rationality, that. Piss off not just one, but two, gods.

fucking retard.

Also this is not /r/atheism.

MadManMorto · 2012-10-30T21:08:55+00:00

This is a repost good sir.

zannabee17 · 2012-10-30T21:15:57+00:00

Technically they're demi-gods.

yeti0013 · 2012-10-30T21:19:20+00:00

in the Marvel cinematic universe Thor and the other Asgardians aren't even Gods. They are just powerful being from another realm who were worshiped as Gods.

este_hombre · 2012-10-30T22:15:35+00:00

God damn! I unsubbed from /r/atheism a while ago and this shit still manages to follow me.

johno456 · 2012-10-30T18:59:39+00:00

They're DEMIgods
Iron Man never proclaims to be atheist
The Hulk never beats the crap out of Thor

FrugalNinja · 2012-10-30T18:42:54+00:00

God has made his presence known a few times in the Marvel universe:

While there are numerous beings that are referred to as "gods" or have claimed divinity, the mysterious entity known as the One-Above-All has been considered to be the creator god of the Marvel Multiverse. He is also the enigmatic master of the immensely powerful Living Tribunal, the judge of all realities and omniverse.[1] The One-Above-All has been mentioned in a Guardians of the Galaxy storyline to be possibly the most powerful being in the entirety of the Marvel Multiverse.

sinthome · 2012-10-30T19:01:27+00:00

We get it, you're an atheist.

Noobesi · 2012-10-30T19:10:34+00:00

A repost with a different title is still a repost.

den31 · 2012-10-30T21:16:33+00:00

I would be interested to know how a god would intend to demonstrate to me that it is a god.

d36williams · 2012-10-30T21:21:45+00:00

When was it clear CA was a Christian? Based on the movies he could be Jewish or something historical like Theist

KippySmith · 2012-10-30T21:32:02+00:00

In the Marvel universe the Norse gods are actually very advanced, strong, near immortal Aliens that were just worshiped like gods.

ramchunk_tequila · 2012-10-30T21:46:12+00:00

HOLY FUCK, guys it's a post that mentions religion and it is not offensive.

Guy-Manuel · 2012-10-30T22:17:27+00:00

The Hulk's reaction justifies both Cap's and Tony's.

FomorianKing · 2012-10-30T22:23:06+00:00

Religion? In my r/funny? Oh HELL NAW!

Tannon34 · 2012-10-30T22:26:24+00:00

Ma'am there's only one God, and he doesn't dress like that

vadvaro10 · 2012-10-30T22:34:08+00:00

best action movie idea ever : the hulk versus all the gods of forever.

krishna, zues, ra,jehovah, etc. one day the gods get worried about the strength and potential of hulk and just throw everything they can at him. but he only gets stronger the madder he gets.... maybe aphrodite might seduce him to death.

i am also thinking of a scene involving jesus running his ass off on the surface of a tidal wave produced by poseidon trading massive blows from a madly swimming hulk. he's all blasting out of the side of this wave jesus is surfing (without a board). or kali with four blades fighting hulk gladiator style while ares prepares his own attack.

the possibilities are endless. considering the 3000+ gods that have existed on this planet since people starting writing the stories down.

darkreality20 · 2012-10-30T22:44:12+00:00

Agree, but Iron Man isn't exactly an atheist. He doesn't disbelieve in Loki or Thor. He just doesn't worship them (or any god). Atheism is a lack of belief.

I don't know what you call someone who believes in a god (or does not deny their existence) but chooses not to worship.

OzymandiasReborn · 2012-10-30T22:59:36+00:00

For a second I thought this was one of those rare actually funny posts in r/atheism. Then I looked and saw I was wrong. Oh well.

brutalistu · 2012-10-30T23:06:38+00:00

Hulk is agnostic.

LaOddOpe · 2012-10-30T23:07:33+00:00

If the F4 movie is in the same marvel universe as the Avengers they should know about Galactus.

Galactus is closer to a god. I think his power can create life

thatTigercat · 2012-10-30T23:43:59+00:00

So not only is r/atheism leaking, it's the "committing acts of violence on figures associated with religion" fantasy

Neskuaxa · 2012-10-31T00:20:53+00:00

r/atheism is that way.

Rakutei · 2012-10-31T00:21:08+00:00

Gods existing with a name that matches up to Norse doesn't mean the Christian God would exist. And it also doesn't disprove it, either. Both Captain America and Tony Stark are just fine.
