Dear Atheists..

Anyone in your family believe in God?

I’m guessing there’s a point to you answering these posts with that question?
Families are full of deluded nutjobs. Not necessarily to do with their religious beliefs but in general. Being family doesn’t make a difference really.
 
My "faith" that there is no God is founded in the fact that there is absolutely zero scientific evidence to suppose his/her/its existance.

A good quote I once heard, of an atheist talking to a devout Christian:

"You and I are very similar, having near identical theological views".

"Really?" Says the Christian.

Yes, the atheist replies, "There are 2500 Gods or deities, from the most ancient gods of polytheistic societies - Hittite, Sumerian, Mesopotamian - to the most contemporary gods of the major monotheistic religions - Allah, God, Yahweh"

You don't belive in 2,499 of them, whereas I don't believe in 2,500.

Does make a difference actually. Just wondering if those two would regard their own family's sincere beliefs in such a disrespectful way. For myself I try not to say things to a person on here that I wouldn't say to them in person. If for example someone called me a liar to my face they'd need a pretty strong case to leave the conversation physically undamaged but I'm a bit old-fashioned like that.

It's not disrespectful to say that an adherent would put a make believe fantasy before his or her family is it though? I don't have any devoutly religious person in my circle at all and I never would have, that's a choice I make.

Faith is different, people with their own belief system that isn't driven by a book with a blueprint they have to follow to live their lives I can get, that being said just because I get it it doesn't mean I believe any of it.

That doesn’t sound very ‘turn the other cheek’ but then having read your posts I reckon you’re on the wind up. Great commitment to your own private joke.
