Okay. Don't try to limit me based on your beliefs.Many people come to their faith through science. And many scientists see no dichotomy between their work and their faith.How many people have you talked into abandoning their faith?Why? There are too many reasons to list. But one is that all religion is BS. Worse than that, religion doesn't prevent evil. IT CAUSES IT! Take mohammed. Who is said to have cut many hundreds of people's heads off with a knife. And who was also a pedophile. If christians didn't believe in jesus, muslims might be less prone to believe in mohammed. Also, there was only one jesus. But there are many different kinds of christian. Why? Because it's all BS! Also, would you like to have a wonderful afterlife? Well according to the bible, just go to hell. Don't believe it? Read Ezekiel 31:16.
Also, according to revelations, you would be better off by being evil. Because after the earth is supposedly destroyed, a new earth will be created. Then a new jerusalem will descend out of the sky onto the new earth. This new jerusalem is supposed to be something around 1000 miles per side. Which is pretty large. But considering the many billions of people who are supposed to be in it, maybe not so much. And what is outside the walls of the new jerusalem? All of the evildoers who weren't worthy to go to heaven. So this new jerusalem sounds more like a prison. Though a guilded one. So according to revelations, it would seem that you would be better off being evil. Then you would have the whole rest of the new earth to roam around on.
Hint: Zero.
You're probably right. People generally can't be talked into abandoning their religion. Most do it on their own after really studying what the religion is about.
But, hey, it's always amusing when atheists insist they're smarter than people of faith.
That seems to be an article of faith among you.
You are free to believe what you choose. Just don't try to limit me based on your religious beliefs. I personally would be thrilled to have a reason to believe that a god exists. I spent many years believing the same things you probably do, but in depth study of the bible exposed lots of flaws in those beliefs.
For instance, don't vote Democrat.
