How to Talk to Athiests

[narcosleepygirl]

Thank you klicrai for posting this! I'm definitely going to spread 'the word' lol.

I'm sure all my athiest friends will like this... and if I do have any religious friends on here, please, do read this. It offers great advice to help further your cause too :)

After all, its not really what you believe but how you live it that matters.

Oh, wow...that was...awesome.

I mean, okay...I've found that almost every one of the YouTube atheists, for example, has a specific thing about religion that they have issues with; in some cases it might be muslim influence in Britain, or circumcision, or religious intrusion into matters like abortion or gay rights...in my case, I have the most issues with the concept of FAITH. When this article says that you cannot point to heaven or hell on a map, and that atheists need proof...oh, my, yes; that's me all over.

So a christian is unlikely to ever convince me of much of anything so long as the requirement of faith persists. In fact, I recently decided that the MOST convincing argument for god's existence would be if faith is, indeed, a test...and the idea is to NOT HAVE IT. That this god wants us to use and develop our mental faculties and NOT fall pretty to superstition. If there were a religion designed around THAT concept, I might actually be tempted

I'd suggest printing out several copies of it and hand it out to those who try to sway you to their 'faith'

I actually don't own a printer, but that's still a pretty good idea.

I believe your local library has a printer you may use...

Amen, sister

OMG! You should do that!

I think I'll do that as well :)

In fact, I have people try to talk to me at my house... I should just leave a stack of them at the door and hand it out to the religious nuts who knock.
