[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If Pullman lets you go either way on the issue of faith, then he's making you think. If the "correct" conclusion is spelled out for you, then it's, uhh, atheist proselytizing. [/quote] Atheists don't proselytize, they point out facts and debunk beliefs for which there is no evidence, or contrary evidence.[/quote] Whatever it is they do, they do it [b]very aggressively. And constantly[/b]. But that's not proselytizing, is it? :roll: [/quote] like scientists explaining evolution? Doctors recommending regular exercise? Like accountants balancing the budget?[/quote] I don't think I have read more absurd comparisons. Medicine, accounting, health recommendations are[b] not based to diverse belief systems[/b]. They are based on universally held beliefs, unlike religion. You win the prize, Einstein! [/quote] and atheism is not a religion, it's not believing in gods, and therefore isn't proselytized. People come to atheism by examining the evidence, just like they make scientific, medical and accounting decisions.[/quote]
