Hey, fellow non-relious people show some -blam!-ing compassion.

Seriously, you should really stop hating on religious people. Of course they aren't going to automatically switch to straight science coming from religion. Because when a person has a family history of a set of beliefs for X generations, they are understandably(if you can be objective for like, 2 seconds) somewhat resistant to new ones. No matter how factual they may be, and, seeing as religion is based more on faith, not fact this only further complicates matters. Seriously guys, you just told an entire group of people that some of their strongest beliefs are total bullshit. Imagine that, something you have been told for years, and is one of the few things you are sure about, is now a lie, seen as no more then a fairly tale, what kind of reaction would you have? For the love a possibly non-existent god, chill the -blam!- out.

  • I'm an atheist and if I wouldn't mind being able to choose to believe in an after life and a god. It's be comforting for me personally. I'm an atheist because from what I see, there is no evidence or reason to believe in a god. There's a benefit to it though. If you're religious and stick to what you think is moral (IE. not stoning women) than you're alright by me. Believing in god, in my eyes, just means they haven't REALLY questioned it and honestly, why should they? Faith can be of huge merit to some people, I have anxiety and depression and I'm sure honestly feeling like I can be with my loved ones forever would make me feel more comfortable. I'm juggling the idea of trying to give myself some reason to believe in an afterlife. It's hard though because I'm a rational person.
