there's a massive difference between religion and religious extremists. You can't even compare the two. Think of ALL the religious people in the world and then think about how many terrorist attacks actually happen. I mean yeah, it's 'based' on religion, but it comes from delusion, taking religion too far. 99.9% of religious people are sane and don't get all up in people's faces about it.

I just don't understand why people get such a high from telling people they're stupid for having a faith or looking down at them for believing. Just let people get on with their lives.

no one every says it directly, but it's always implied.

you were just telling Livia that she'd see the light... surely that means you think she's wrong and needs to learn?

I love it when the forum stumbles on a brand new topic of discussion.

But I haven't ever met an atheist who's so obsessed with religion.

I'll take the first line as an insult.

Why would I play an "attack" card?

I don't see believing in god and being religious as being connected so it's a toughie for me.

Yes I do but I don't like getting involved in discussing it religion and politics are red rag topics lol, I'm not saying I'd never join in a debate cos I would if I thought of something I wanted to say but generally it's bound to end in arguments as religion is personal and different for almost everyone be they believers, non believers, Christians, Catholics, Jews, Muslims or any other belief which are too many to list, I'd never think of them all so I'll stop there.
