Both my parents are religious. My older sister is religious.
My brother and I are both atheist. It is about the only topic we agree on actually.

I think more people need to investigate the possibility that all religions are absolutely wrong. I think the only logically sound conclusion to all the supporting evidence is that god does not exist in any form. Unfortunately, this is about the one thing that religious people will absolutely refuse to consider.

The 1 thing that convinces me is not the existence of life or humans, but simply existence itself. It seems to me that something is behind/of the existence of the universe, though it certainly isn’t the anthropogenic/centric God most of humanity believes in

I did inherit my “beliefs” (I’m a second-generation atheist) but I take any opportunity I can find to discuss it with religious people ot theists. I like hearing their arguments and experiences. have to say though that none of them ever convinced me.

Yes, as a child I inherited my family’s religion. Then as an adult, I gave it up. I did study other religions, but at the time, I rejected them. Now, I consider myself spiritual. I practice yoga and meditation and contemplate the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali. I’ve found there are many similarities in different religions and I’m finally coming to the point in my life where I accept that each person must follow God in their own way.

I saw a documentary on Mormons on PBS and the 2 kids who went out on their year-long missionary stint converted a total of 1 person. Now that’s devotion! Most evangelicals and spiritual liberals are so entrenched that one side rarely influences the other.

Every aspect of our society operates under the premise of logic and rational thought except religion, which operates under age old tradtions. Given that we’re in a rational age I suspect that Christianity will slowly undergo major changes in the next century.

Great post! I love how you engaged the young ladies – very lovingly, not attacking them or feeling superior. Thank you for a wonderful post.
