Is there a positive correlation between Atheism and ugliness? - Daniel - 11-09-2012 11:21 AM
Before ppl get butthurt over this question, just think about it for a bit... At my workplace I counted at least 10 atheists, and they are all unattractive in appearance and do not take care of their physical health (drink every weekend, eat junk food a lot, don't participate in sports). I thought this may just be a coincidence but then I started to pay attention to the ppl I have on my facebook after a female atheist posted on her wall "I am smart, I am sexy, I am nice and I am good." Not saying anything about her intelligence but she is definitely NOT sexy. And just to clarify, she isn't my friend just some person who decided to add me on facebook (without even speaking 1 word to me). after a group gathering with mutual friends. Then I decided to look at the rest of the ppl on my facebook labelled as atheists and lo and behold not a single one was appealing appearance-wise. I counted about 50... With a large number of them exhibiting general disregard for physical wellbeing.
Anyway dunno if it's just me, anyone else out there? I am curious and this curiosity has made me decide to ask this question and draw on the small sample of ppl that answer it to reach a very limited but some-what more accurate conclusion.
And before ppl start hurling angry and upset comments, note that:
1. I don't care if you're upset about it b/c this is coming directly from my observation
2. Don't give me examples of celeb atheists like Richard Dawkins b/c he is NOT even attractive like some ppl have told me...
3. Agnosticism or ppl who are just plain indifferent about religion and anti-religion cannot be counted as Atheists

You are just like me. When I go to churches and I see all the ugly people, I say to myself, "that is what churches are for, to give ugly people a place to be accepted."

You Sir are an idiot.
This is like me wondering if there is a postive correlation with being religious and being stupid because of this question.

I'm not an atheist, but I am fairly ugly. However, I've reached an age where I don't give toss about my looks. In any case, after I drink 15 beers I look like George Clooney and am also a great singer.
Why do you care if atheists are ugly? After you're dead you probably won't run into any.
