Atheist are really good at following things they can't prove, then say the theist shouldn't believe because they can't prove God exists.
Yeah it's mind boggling that so many want to repeat history all over again and trade our best player for unknowns. It's really frustrating!
Theism can bring a community together like few other things in society. Sports and tragedies are the only other things I can think of. It's very powerful to have a group with common values and beliefs come together in a church, synagogue, mosque, shrine, temple, etc...
this is a weird thread mags, you said to praise the other side, and since then have done nothing but backhandedly insult atheists
not that I really care, but this is the same thing again - more of just an actual insult rather than something resembling a playfully sarcastic compliment.
The homes of theists, their churches, their public halls -- once served as lights in the wilderness keeping the darkness of intellectual and religious tyranny from smothering the spark of American liberty.
One non-sarcastic response The Theists here are usually very nice and willing to help me understand their perspective even though they know I am not going to agree. That's appreciated.
