I am a deconvert, meaning I used to have the god deal swallowed hook line and sinker. What changed me? Seminary-

Good work Summer- I can’t believe how many Xtians just HAVE to reply-

That’s just sad (and pathetic). Your beliefs must be truly powerful to be based on jokes… I guess it’s true what they say, “If you don’t stand for something, you’ll fall for anything.”

To quote Eykal: “grass is green because chlorophyll absorbs all wavelengths but green, which it reflects, which is what we see…Can I see the air? Well [Nitrogen] and oxygen dont tend to be too visible, but I’m still breathing. Things light on fire. Fire requires oxygen. Therefore oxygen is there.”

Oh, you two must be right. You totally went out and studied molecules in nature, actions and reactions of a human mind, etc. and have discovered everything for yourself about gravity, why we see colors, and how oxygen exists. You’re totally not just blindly following someone else who tells you that is how things work. I’m not trying to say that isn’t how things work, how should I know but that I blindly follow the word of some scientists who “Convince[d] 1.5 billion people” (Ayla), but I am saying don’t be so quick to judge someone lest you be judged.
I am a Christian and I worship God, and, though I do not agree with any of these sayings, I’m all the more saddened by those that call themselves Christians but do not act as such. Unfortunately, those will be the kind of ‘christians’ that you will more often run into. My suggestion to them is that perhaps they read the Bible that they so quickly claim a little better and see what it has to say about being slow to anger and quick to forgive.

Secondly I would say how ignorent religon is but then someone who Is truely in denial will come and bash the hell out of me because there god told them to so I said nothing of the sort…or did I? Because in fact no one can know more than who thay are, No one is wise enuff, or smart enuff to know the truth so except that its unknown and when you dye find out for yourself… Woof.

You atheists are the only funny ones around here! Keep up the good work!

I just had to say that this was by far the highlight of my year reading this. I deal with religious prejudice everyday of my life and to see other people’s outake on it makes me smile. And to read “angie”s response just made the whole thing so much better. To show how religious people are so close-minded that they can’t even laugh at a few jokes is amazing.
