Spiritually speaking, Atheists.....?

Will you accept my heartfelt thanks. Because of your challenging questions, I have needed to delve deeper into God's Word. I have learned many new scriptures that help me and you. Thank you for helping my faith increase. God can use all things for good.

    Glad to be of service.

    I have a lot more respect for Christians who take the time and effort to truly examine their beliefs and give serious consideration to the opinions of others. That you have come to a different conclusion than I have is what makes life interesting. I would be bored if we all believed the same things.

    Good. Believe it or not that is my goal. At the end of the day I don't care what people believe. I can respect someone who has different views than I do if the have put some real thought into their beliefs. Too many people seem to follow a religion because it's what they have always been taught, responding to questions about it in the way they think they should be responding. That I don't respect. So, if you have put some real thought into your beliefs and they are sincere, then more power to you.

    Sure, whatever.

    I'll just suggest that if that's the direction you've gone, you've missed the point of "challenging questions" entirely. But hey, it's your life, believe whatever you want. Just don't go around claiming your beliefs are "facts," or try to make them into laws or teach them as facts in public schools, and it's all good.

    Peace.

    You're Welcome,

    i honestly hope you find what you are so desperately needing out of this life and if you need a imaginary friend to do so then so be it like i say we only live once, i pity the people who do not see the beauty and magic in their self's and put their own solo accomplishments on a deity but i do not judge them i hope one day you will find the will to believe in yourself as much as you believe in your god :)

    You said it yourself. You faced challenging questions, reacted with cognitive dissonance, turned back to the information which is causing the cognitive dissonance, and continued your cycle of delusional behavior.

    You're quite welcome!

    I'm always happy to help, and in the long run, maybe you will have the same attitude.

    Glad we could help. It's the least we can do for the most hopeless among us. We do have compassion, even for the clinically brain-dead.
