Atheists don't care if they're wrong. So what if god exists? Not the atheist's fault that god wouldn't show itself.Back a few weeks ago, I posed my first question to Atheists and I was surprised how suddenly we had so many posters proclaim themselves "Agnostic!" It was an amazing thing to see. We constantly get bombarded with the so-called "naysayers" on this forum regularly but for some odd reason, my question turned them away from Atheism to Agnosticism instantly. I don't think I ever got an honest answer to my question. So I decided it would be a good idea for a thread OP.
First Question for Atheists:
Do you hope that you are wrong or do you hope that you are right?
It's not a trick question. It's relatively easy. Just answer it honestly. If you can't answer, perhaps you need to ask yourself the question in quiet contemplation? How you answer is important and I will explain later.
The second question is:
Do you ever have doubts about your Atheism?
Again, not a trick question, relatively easy to answer.
Now, I wish that I could take credit for these profoundly brilliant questions but I can't. They are presented by Dennis Prager in an article he posted some time back. I will outline a little more about what he had to say later on. For now, I just want to get some feedback from our Atheist contingent... if we have one.
It's funny to me, if Atheists don't care, why they can't seem to answer the simple question posed in the OP. Do you hope you're wrong or do you hope you're right?
