Beautiful - probably goes over the head of many here, but fully agree.

Not beautiful and doesn't go over my head. but I can understand that it helps you to believe that atheists believe in a god "named Chance."

There is no confounding. Whatever level of belief you have, it is all still silly regardless of what you call it - Vishnu, Osiris, Zeus, Jesus, or the Flying Spaghetti Monster.

But us weak of faith aren't the holy roller snake handlers trying to make America a Christian nation.

Right - We've got an atheist in the Oval Office who favors Christians because he knows they will love him as long as he caters to them - which he will do, just to stick it to the Libs, whether the Libs are religious or not.

From what I've witnessed on this board they're generally an angry miserable bunch. I think while they don't know it or even realize it they might be driven by the devil to pull people away from God. They might be being used.

Think about this: when on these boards have you seen believers trying to covert atheists into believing in God? When have you seen them pushed, shamed and antagonized for not believing in God? Never. Why is that? Does that seem strange to you? It's one way. Ask yourself why is it one way? Food for thought.

I live a fairly good life as I know that every moment I have to live is precious.

The anger and misery come from the mythology believers trying to impose their fictions on my life.

"impose their fictions on my life."

EXCEPT no one is doing that to you at all. Its totally all in your head.

There are entire states trying to push Christian curriculum into public schools. Certain US Supreme Court justices make no secret that their religion impacts how they rule. They were in fact chosen because of their religious beliefs, in a nation that is supposed to have separation of church and state.

+10000 well said! No one throws their religion onto these atheists or makes them feel small or terrible for not believing in God. It is truly one way.

Are you saying that you're feeling small and terrible for believing in God?? If you no longer believed in God, maybe you wouldn't feel so small and terrible.

I guess reading comprehension isn't your thing. PP said that atheists make them feel this way on this board. Re-read the post. SMH.

+1M Atheists are indeed very angry and combative to try and "prove" the religious people wrong on here. Things that make you go hmmmm.

I'm an atheist and I'm not angry and miserable. Nor was I when I was a believer. Believers, especially in Christianity, assume that you should have the same beliefs as they do. Doesn't that seem strange to you?

Trump is NOT an atheist.

https://www.cnn.com/2015/07/18/politics/trump-has-never-sought-forgiveness/index.html
“People are so shocked when they find … out I am Protestant. I am Presbyterian. And I go to church and I love God and I love my church”

“When I drink my little wine – which is about the only wine I drink – and have my little cracker, I guess that is a form of asking for forgiveness, and I do that as often as possible because I feel cleansed,” he said. “I think in terms of ‘let’s go on and let’s make it right.’”

At his second inauguration:
https://www.whitehouse.gov/remarks/2025/01/the-inaugural-address/
“But I felt then and believe even more so now that my life was saved for a reason. I was saved by God to make America great again.”

This past week:
https://apnews.com/article/trump-texas-floods-fema-phase-out-b77d9681d2d39f8c201351b54ecf944f
“ “They were there because they loved God. And, as we grieve this unthinkable tragedy, we take comfort in the knowledge that God has welcomed those little beautiful girls into his comforting arms in heaven,” Trump said.”

No, I know there are millions of idiots in this country and a large # of them believe in ancient fairy tales.
