  • If you believe we and our universe are the products of an unknown and unknowable supernatural creation source then you are being honest. If you believe we are the products of a supernatural creation source and you insist on defining and characterizing it by calling it your "god" then you are being willfully and grossly DISHONEST. And only an irresponsible and weak minded person would claim to know and understand what cannot be known or understood and even have the gall to name it.

  • America has survived (Barely) by somehow living by christian standards. By some huge coincidence more atheists have been popping up here as the government declines?

  • Going to church does not make someone a christian. This report is incorrect. Most people in the western world consider themselves christian and do believe in Jesus whether they attend church on a regular basis or not at all.

  • @Cenamark2 - You can't really measure how many christians there are by how many people are in church buildings. Many christians believe that most of the churches today are much more concerned with collecting large amounts of money then following Jesus. There has always been believers who did not attend church on a regular basis because of the corruption that seems to exist in organized church structures that eventually lose true spirituality and are simply "religious" in nature.

  • @bnicewilly Well of course Christian Schools have high rates of college attendance. They're mostly full of upper middle class kids who'd be going to College no matter what.

  • @nasranithomman Give me a break. Get over your delusions of being oppressed.
