What religion are you?/Religion discussion

[TheKhoz]

80% of Christians in America are only Christians because that's how they were raised.

Christmas is for them about Santa and Presents.

Easter is about a Bunny.

I would assume that the majority of Atheists/Agnostics in America were part of a religion, and changed. (Such as me)

Yeah I'm American because I was raised like that, not because I was born here.....

Agnostics are just Atheists that are too arrogant to identify themselves as such.

what the forget
that's the most stupid thing I've heard today

Exactly.

Atheists are those who do not believe in a deity

Theism = Belief in a deity(s)

Prefix A = Without, Lacking, Not

So Atheist = Without Belief in a deity

That's an extremely simplified explanation though.

Yeah, it's a shame how many people dedicate themselves to blind faith like that. I really wish people were smart enough to step aside and just decide their religious views for themselves. That's what I did, I'm an Agnostic.

Uh, no. Agnostics usually define themselves as not belonging to any religion. Atheists deny religion. See what I'm getting at? I'm Agnostic because, frankly, I think it is really quite ridiculous to simply choose one theory about how the universe came to be and abide by it and its morals. Who am I to say there is/isn't a God(s)? Therefore I am neither Athiest or Theist, I am undecided. Agnostic.

I have stepped aside and read a great deal of literature on arguments both for and against Christianity and have come to the conclusion of being a Christian myself.

You've got to be the only person i've ever heard of that actually became a christian after examining both sides

Anyway, here's a great website for any atheists out there. Go to the refuting the bible page for some extra giggles
