[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I really don't want to derail the thread, but...it is so weird to me when people like PP are condescending about other people not believing in God. I arrived at my agnosticism after deep, prolonged examination and reflection, in addition to a thorough knowledge of the history of not just Christianity, but the other major religions as well. To have someone glibly pronounce that I am not "self-examined" and that if I were, the sole conclusion from that would be belief in a Christian God...it is just astounding.

PP, your unwavering belief that God exists does not make it so. Your belief that all people ultimately will choose religion, and Christianity in particular, if "self-examined" is so unbelievably naive and half-baked that [b]I cannot possibly regard you as a rational, intelligent person[/b].

I can, because in today's society, it's acceptable and possible to be rational and intelligent about most things while dropping when applied it to religion).   Also, think about the rational and intelligent people  you know who who have done some incredibly irrational or stupid things in their lives.  People are not rational all the time and in our society, religion is an area in which irrationality is not only allowed, it is celebrated.[/quote]
