Topic: Are Atheists Open for a Chat?

Hey, Artio:

Here's what I say: Any Christian who lowers himself or herself to attacking an atheist is really not a Christian. And it is funny because many Christians feel the same way about atheists, as when they state they are "progressive."

Faith and grace are God's gifts, and some of us have them, and some of us don't.

I would counter that if you look at this country since 1962 when they took the Bible out of public schools and public prayer out of public schools that we have become less moral. If you look at the movies of the 1950s, the big blockbusters focused on religious themes. Nowadays, not so much. So I do think that God and the Bible (which do not necessarily equal religion) are good moral beacons.

Just my two cents.

Thanks,
Shiki




See this is why wars happen, I was born into a Mormon family. All I remember was I was a big fan of archeology and dinosaurs, then one day durning religion studies we were told that Dinosaurs didn't exist and there bones where put on earth to test faith..

So I became christian, cause I thought that was insane.
Well I almost married a wonderful girl friend but I felt my self growing distant from the church for a long time. Once I told her about that, she basically exiled me. Just like my extended Mormon family did.

I had friends that I met from the church and christian friends from school who stopped associating with me once word got around in the Religious community that I didn't believe in God.

I agree with the above poster, religion does some great things from the community. I have nothing against religious people.
But religious people have something against me. Not all, but a lot. Religious people are dangerous and arrogant. I am a sample on a small scale of why millions of people are killed over and over again through out history. Religious people see other people as less then them or different, persicute them and then eventually the other guys (normally a diff religion) say, screw this.. and everyone kills everyone.

Well I wouldn't be surprised if 500 years from now christians get evenly matched in numbers with atheists or agnostic or secularist and some other war happens.

Basically, I think our human need to identify ourselves and others into categories is the downfall of millions of peoples deaths through out all time. So my answer? STOP CLASSIFYING EACH OTHER
