Atheism
You present yourself like a jackass. why are you offering guidance to only atheists and singling them out. Why not tell everyone to look at every religion possible. I get the impression that you believe athesim to be close-minded. but the way I see it it is just as close-minded as taking another stance that happens to be an organized religion.

Besides evolution their isnt much if your a atheist that doesnt believe in evolution then you probably believe in nothing. Arguements against religion is usually answered with a arguement against atheism and vice versa. If you are to look at only atheism then you Rating: 5

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ ^^^
if you really paid attencion to what i said then you wouldof seen that I was moreover using atheism as a example as it seems to be a very close minded type of religion even though technically it isnt a religion. What you just said shows alot of bad towards atheism and it seems to me sugar that you hold atheism close to you as if it was a religion.

If an atheist denies the supernatural, how is it anything like religion? I'd say its more of a belief. You can't compare religion and atheism simply because they are both beliefs. Lots of things are beliefs and you can't just lump shit up like that. Doesn't work.

How is atheism close-minded? Atheists are some of the most open-minded people I know. Most atheists were not raised atheists so they had to have an open mind to get to atheism in the first place. Almost every atheist I've ever met has been quite receptive to new ideas, but reluctant to accept them as true until shown sufficient evidence. How is it close-minded to demand evidence before you believe some new idea? It's not that we don't consider the possibility of a supernatural, it's just that we see a conspicuous lack of evidence for it. If the supernatural interacts with our physical universe, where's the evidence? If it doesn't, what's the point of religion since nobody can possibly come to know anything about it?

Also, note that if you're going to believe in anything you pretty much have to reject thousands of religions, past and present. The atheist just happens to reject one more religion than the believer.

You can't compare religious people to atheists, that is the entire basis of our objecti0ns, we're not like you. We don't believe, we don't have faith, because there's nothing to believe in but what's in front of us, and what's insinde of us; our potential.
