They believe in the Evolution Fairy: it waves its wand and Poof! water-breathing creatures breathe air. Poof! wingless creatures sprout feathers and after flapping for millions of years, learn to fly into the air. Poof! veins magically appear with blood and Poof! a heart appears and pumps the blood and Poof! kidneys appear and filter the blood and Poof! Poof! Poof! trillions of dependent structures and designed-appearing mechanism pop into existence over -insert-millions-of-years.

It “Just so” happened because some people who claim God does not exist said so!

Of course, they won’t word it so bluntly but will use scientific jargon to give their fairy a mantle of believability and authority.

Poof!

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.

I'm asking this with 100% sincerity and genuine curiosity:

Why do you care enough to spend so much energy on this board? What motivates you to do that? I'm genuinely fascinated.

I suspect it has something to do with the obnoxious way people’s little fantasies and belief in sky fairies affects policy and every day life.

+2. I wish they could keep their religion out of public policy, where it has no place.

Now in Texas, they are praying for the dead. Fat lot of good prayer has done. Guess it was God's will that all those rich girls died at camp.

You are free to vote for those who share the same beliefs as you do.

+1.

Of course they don’t realize that their right to choose their religion (or lack thereof) is founded in Christian tradition.

Could you please cite exactly where the right to choose one's religion (or lack thereof) is set forth in the Christian tradition?

Revelation 3:20, among others.

And it was a Christian camp!
