I'm surprised this thread still exists and that no one is bashing each other yet. I'm impressed! Good job BF2s!


Next post is probably when the bashing begins, I jinxed it. Sorry

People like you give atheists the bad name they currently hold.  Don't like religion?  Fine.  Don't impose yourself on other people by bashing religion because then you're just as bad as the institutions you're criticizing.  Do you have any idea how much of an asshole it would make you look like if you refused to attend a funeral of a close friend/family member just because you don't like the words the preacher said?  I mean no hostility, but an attitude like that is what makes people think atheists are stupid and immoral.

In response to the OP, I was born, baptized, and confirmed Catholic against my will, but am now a happy atheist.  Contrary to popular belief, I don't go out on Saturdays to stand on a soapbox on a street corner to proclaim the evils of religion.  Religion is a personal matter and unless somebody else brings up the topic, I keep my views to myself.

TRUTH.

atheists are the MOST GUILTY of shoving their [lack of] religion in your face.

I am a Roman Catholic Christian.

Also, it is insiteful of you to acknowledge the difference between agnostics and atheists.  Most people do not recognize there is a difference.

"Religion is a personal matter and unless somebody else brings up the topic, I keep my views to myself."

I'm the same way. I may ask what religion they have and that's it if we get around the subject and I leave it at that. I only start talking shit if they want to start.

Actually, Islam is the fastest growing religion, and I believe it outnumbers Buddhism and Hinduism in its membership.
Last I heard, Islam was #2 in the world (population-wise) behind Christianity.

I have noticed that too, GS. It may be be a bit of a conflict of interest for me to say so because I'm Roman Catholic but it doesn't matter. I feel that discussing religion on these forums is much more hostile than in real life. Whenever I talk to my friends about religion, it's much friendlier than here. Thinking about it, there's an awful lot of different beliefs that I come into contact with every day. Catholics, Protestants, agnostics, atheists, Jains, Jews, Sikhs, Muslims, Hindus... it's all good because everybody respects each others beliefs. No matter how much someone feels to contrary, there's little effort to change them....except for when we try to get the Hindu vegetarian to eat meat.
