I think the reason the vast majority of the UFC roster seems religious is that they thank their deity either verbally or with some kind of gesture. The atheistic/agnostic fighters don't thank their lack of faith for giving them the power to win fights. It also seems a very cultural thing, where USA/Brazil (where most fighters come from atm) expect citizens to be christian. On the other hand, here in Scandinavia it is almost taboo to thank God for an athletic accomplishment. |

Steve4192 -knuckleballs - Mir is. I would put money down that Barnett is. Monson is. I bet Joe Rogan is. Hardy isn't from a religious-fundamentalist country, either, so he stands a good chance. its not at all; i live there and nobody under 50 cares about church or believes in god. Except the muslims obviously, they are hooked on it from an early age |

Fighter and atheist. In terms of 'Christians' in the UK, you'll find even the vast majority of those that attest to be don't actually practice. |

UGSlapshot -Lol @ you totally misreading his postknuckleballs - Mir is. I would put money down that Barnett is. Monson is. I bet Joe Rogan is. Hardy isn't from a religious-fundamentalist country, either, so he stands a good chance.LoL at Rogan being religious hope you don't really think so and Barnett doesn't seem to be at all religious either.

Johan Von Brügermëister -Laughable and the fact that he is wrongJimmy Rustler -Albert Einstein was autistic and couldn't speak till he was like 3. Sure he was smart but to pretend like he's the greatest mind the world has ever known is just ignorant. To think that just his belief in god validates your argument is shockingly dumbUGSlapshot -Jimmy Rustler -At least he's not pumping them full of bullshit. Einstein rejected labels but did not believe in the Christian god, and was somewhere between atheism and agnostic ''About God, I cannot accept any concept based on the authority of the Church. As long as I can remember, I have resented mass indoctrination. I do not believe in the fear of life, in the fear of death, in blind faith. I cannot prove to you that there is no personal God, but if I were to speak of him, I would be a liar. I do not believe in the God of theology who rewards good and punishes evil. My God created laws that take care of that. His universe is not ruled by wishful thinking, but by immutable laws''. - Albert Einstein

Bjjudo -Jimmy Rustler -How is that at all sad? Yes and brainwashing your kids into believing that they deserve something for nothing and Liberal bullshit isn't a fairytale. Atheism is as much of a Faith based system than Christianity or any other Religion. |

mods delete this thread, it does not belong on the UG. This was an obvious attempt by OP to start a long religious/atheist thread on the UG and the only way he could do this was to ask which fighters are atheist. The answer is nobody knows and OP knew that when he made this thread |

Jimmy Rustler - how do you explain Tim Tebow? this man of god should be a champion by now your logic is flawed. two biggest religions in the world, one cant stop young children from being molested, the other treats women like lesser beings. and hide behind books written by people with 1% of knowledge of a teenager of present. why would anyone in there right mind, still be part of these two religions? if im on a certain TEAM, and even one of my teammates abuse's a child or women,i would KICK them off the team,and if i was told, no, we are going keep him around on the team, i would immediately quit that team, stop representing this team, stop associating with this team, have nothing to do with this team. religion, your drunk, come back when you stop abusing people. |

Outlaw'd by Lytle - All of the highly intelligent ones are Atheist. Atheism - The belief there was absolutely NOTHING. Then nothing happened to the NOTHING until it magically exploded creating EVERYTHING everywhere. Then a bunch of the exploded EVERYTHING magically rearranged itself for no reason into self-replicating bits which then turned into dinosaurs. Sounds intelligent to me! |

DarrenMullen -Outlaw'd by Lytle - All of the highly intelligent ones are Atheist. Even the ridiculous hillbilly way you paraphrased the big bang, makes way more sense then Genesis or any other creation story. By the way, does anyone else wish the Greek gods caught on instead of Jesus, that way we would have people worshipping Zeus! , believed to be the "father of Gods and men" which would make the most sense, there are many gods, muslim god, Christian god, Odin, Hades, Poseidon, And Zeus is the father of them all, after all is says so on very old paper, so it must be true. Not bad, I mean Jesus must be happy, his dad is actually muther fucken Zeus! |

All you religious freaks are gonna be pissed when you die and there's nothing. Religion is nothing more than a way to control people. |

DarrenMullen -Also, you do understand the religious view is that God 'just appeared'. He has no creator himself, he just magicked his way into existence from NOTHING.Outlaw'd by Lytle - All of the highly intelligent ones are Atheist. So matter can't just appear (as you put it), but a complex highly intelligent being such as God, can? Okay, carry on son. Lol.

KZTT_CodyLarge - My post went unnoticed. None of the champs are atheist Frank Mir is a two-time champion. I have never researched Barnett, but i would bet he is, too. Rory McDonald, Denis Siver and Gustafson are from non-fundamentalist countries, so they stand a good chance of being athiests. One doesn't immediately know because they don't stick it in everyone's face. |
