Yes I agree with you there, but unlike Christian crusaders I'm not seiging towns either. Or sexually abusing children. It's not like other people who follow different religions have been perfect either. Doesn't stop people joining together in a community to share their faith.

If he's going to use words, he needs to be less superior and more clear on his point.

Buzzov*en. From one atheist to another non-believer, let me just tell you that you are exactly the kind of person I'm ashamed to be associated with by being in the same group as you.

Just telling people their beliefs are stupid and trying to belittle them does nothing at all for the cause of reason. It may be obvious to you and I, but as someone who was a serious Roman Catholic and became an atheist, I can tell you that your approach is the opposite of effective.

As an atheist do I try to convert people back to Atheism? Honestly, yes. Do I do it by attacking their intellect, values, or experiences? No.

I really do not care quite honestly.

I had a ribeye steak for lunch, it was God-like. I go to Church once a year with my friends family as they ask me too, and i am a non believer but i would never begrudge someone being active in religion and using it as a positive aspect in their life. To each their own, could never be more relevant then with religion. The most polarizing subject in history and something all will never agree on. Good luck with this thread.

If you don't care, then you're criticizing religion for the wrong reasons.

Wow am I clone of every other Christian? I can't think for myself obviously maybe you should go talk to the leader of my cult. Or whoever you are referring to as 'their'.

I'll go back to supporting sexual abuse and gay bashing now.

I never said you were a clone of every other Christian I just said you labeling yourself a Christian means you support the organization's actions.
Finally you say you support it!

Also if you could think for youreslf why would you need to be apart of Christianity to have faith?

Oh absolutely, I also want to burn witches, kill the gays and pray God sends tsunami's to your town.
