No see
You are a loving douche
Someone walks in and says I'm atheist.
This doesn't do stuff, this means nothing. No one cares about it.
Someone walks in and says I'm Christian.
Suddenly people flip the forget out.
No.
I was making a statement, as I have seen many in this thread do. I was not trying to debate or argue.
Because Atheism is the cool thing to be these days. Latest fad in a long line of rebellious fads. If it has a rule structure or form of discipline for immoral behavior, it's cool to rebel against because that's what all kids do. "Because we obviously have a grip on what is real even though we've barely even lived a quarter of our lives, we know everything because we have the internet and news programs that tell us the truth. Why bother to personally do the research if someone says so?" Same faults go for religions as well.
I love how gullible and impressionable kids are. I had a good deal of kids believe I was the retired Spiderman because of a lump I have in my wrist (not lupis or cancer) that flexes when I do the spidey hand web shoot pose. Yes some of those kids were high schoolers. Smart kids, but they will believe anything they want to if you present them with enough convincing material.
I went through the rebellious phase, just like my parents did and their parents before them. I'm pretty darn sure my kids will go through it. Sooner or later people mature some, quit feeling the need to make their point on every single issue they feel they know anything about and just simply learn that you can still be great friends with someone for many many years and not give a care to what they believe in because you actually focus on things you have in common. I'm good friends with Bisjac and we are both on opposing sides of the debate but we never let that interfere with our friendship. We simply don't care because we enjoy gaming and legos more than we do fighting over who is right.
tl;dr Can't we all juss git
r done? along?
