    Popularity of Belief--evidence for belief?

    This makes me wonder if it's really true belief... Yes children are naive and trusting of authority, but with lack of knowledge and reasoning, the only option is to listen without question... But because of our natural curiosity, I don't think we are ground to truly believe proposition based on...

    Why Have You Left Your Church?

    I don't think I'm going to even try and decipher this illogical statement here...

    Why Have You Left Your Church?

    The falsity of this statement is almost repugnant... I was raised a Catholic and have left it not because of misunderstanding, and I bet I can speak for many when I say that... Besides, I'm sure God wouldn't care what way you seek for the right path... IMHO, I feel any just god's true task for...

    Atheist by birth?

    The more I think about this, the more I question it... It seems to be about semantics now, but that's because of many debates of the past... In all honesty, the term theist came first... Something describing a belief in god(s)... I'm sure whoever came up with the term/concept atheist didn't look...

    Nothing Exists

    To be alive biologically is to have a functioning brain that communicates to the rest of your body to function as well, but life, to live, could be something that extends beyond biological reasons and can still result in the same experiences you'd have while biologically alive (i.e. Happiness...

    Atheist by birth?

    I wouldn't say that Ignosticism is specific in introduction because it encompasses the 'god' concept as a whole... They haven't gotten past the first step of defining 'god'... So an Ignostic wouldn't really be theist or atheist due to that lack of knowledge... A baby can easily fall under that...

    Why Have You Left Your Church?

    I feel that it is uneccesary to even go to church... At least not for the purpose of learning... Everyone who has a holy scripture that they read, should take time to interpret for themselves, because man has a tendancy to lie and distort... I'm not saying that all churches are known for it, but...

    Should separation of church and state extend to museum exhibits?

    A symbol shoulnd't have to be defined for me by a person other than me... That's the point that I'm trying to make... Now... I personally wouldn't have complained about the artifact because even with the plaque there, I could still come up with my own symbolic meaning of the artifact, but then...

    Atheist by birth?

    Even the slightest knowledge is some knowledge... as long as there is a positive quantity.... He has to at least know of them in order to say he has a belief in them either way... It straightforward to recognize that we can't believe in something that we've just heard of, but not never heard...

    She is saying there can be no 'virgin' until there is a concept of 'sex'...

    Atheist by birth?

    But that's a label based on action rather than thought (thought being much more abstract, and therefore much more difficult to label) but I think we've figured out that what is really being mentioned is that Atheism is being used in the sense that there is 'Lack of belief' (i.e. no belief either...

    Atheist by birth?

    No... It seems that atheism, to me, is "I do not believe in gods"... However if it is lack of belief, is it meant belief either way, as in there is no belief or disbelief? Are you saying that the subject in which we have knowledge of must be proven true?

    Atheist by birth?

    This seems to be a bit more of a reasonable argument... I never really considered the fact that it isn't the baby categorizing itself, but rather society... If that's the case then I could see the statement, 'Atheism is the default position' being a bit more logical... Of course, that is to say...
