Ben, Firstly, I do not want to get into a religious war but feel I have to say this.
If you do not believe in God (the one of the Big 3 .... Christianity, Islam and Judaism) Then that is your right and your personal affair and I am sure I and many others will pray for you But to what ends does trying to encourage atheism help? Do we get a more moral society (I think you can look at the West and see the homosexual push to see that we don't) Do we get a society with less child-sacrifice witchdoctors? Do we get less corrupt politicians and civil servants? Less thieves? Do we get more people who help the unfortunate? Do we get more people who care for others? Do we get more forgiveness? How exactly does atheism help the society and the individual? Lastly, something all atheists/freethinkers/godless refuse to do..... Prove God does not exist Atheists claim there is no God and thus are enlightened in some way and that the rest of us "poor fools" are deficient in mental capacity. Well once upon a time the majority of the people in the world thought the world was flat A few enlightened people said it was round .... it was up to the few round-earthers to prove the earth was round. Once upon a time it was believed that the earth was the center of the universe and the sun went round the earth It was the few enlightened who had to prove this was not so. Once upon a time people believed man could never fly (let alone in a machine made of metal) But two (only two!!!! ... imagine that) brothers called Orville and Wilbur Wright ... proved humanity wrong and now we have planes taking off and landing at Entebbe. Please enlightened one ... prove God does not exist Or kindly leave us "non-enlighted" folks alone. Atheists always try and do the opposite ... they ask the believers to prove God exists ... but we are not the minority .... we "fools" are the majority So it is not up to us to prove our "foolishness" ... it is up to you to prove that we are the fools Please Prove to me that God DOES NOT EXIST ... and I will stop believing!
