I suppose it's only natural. Us religious folk have had thousands of years of practice with people being religious for the wrong reasons. Now you atheists finally get a chance to experience people being atheists for the wrong reasons.
- theevocater 14y agoWhat? Everyone starts out an atheist. There can't be a wrong reason to be an atheist because its the default setting on the human.
- fusiongyro 14y agoInteresting. Did you know that's precisely the same reasoning Islam has for calling everyone else an infidel?
- thorum 14y agoWhy does atheism being the default setting on a human mean there can't be a wrong reason to be an atheist? That doesn't follow at all.
- fusiongyro 14y agoI also doubt it's true. Most kids seem perfectly willing animists to me. Not ascribing supernatural causes to things is learned, not built in.
- danilocampos 14y agoThat's just the thing, though. Atheism isn't a religion. There is no "wrong reason" to be an atheist. If a guy on the street concludes there is no god, whether he got there by reading a textbook or personal whimsy has no bearing on my own absence of belief. It doesn't matter.
- fusiongyro 14y agoSo cute. It's like you guys have no idea when you're repeating the same arguments your arch enemies used to use, and for the same reasons to boot!
- danilocampos 14y agoI'm a free agent, homie. There's no "you guys." There's no atheist sewing circle.
- danilocampos 14y agoI'm a free agent, homie. There's no "you guys." There's no atheist sewing circle. Whether or not other people believe is irrelevant to me, so long as they don't try to foist their beliefs on me or make children stupid.
