I'm an athiest and I find that major flamebait.

On Topic: No.

I'm actually just curious.  The kind of response I was looking for was from pastro, and I would hope all people of all beliefs treat their religious beliefs with the same scrutiny and thought processes that we use in everyday life.

If you think asking someone if 'Moses split the Red Sea' or 'Jesus was the Son of God' is offensive, you're admiting that believing in such a thing is negative and something you should be offended for.

I was in a catholic school all my life, but that doesnt mean I still believe, actually I had many atheist classmates, so I dont know if Im the case of a believer admitting something in the bible is false, although, when I did believe there were many things me and my friends considered to be most likely fake, like adam and eve, Noas boat(dont know how to say it in english) and other things that could be proven wrong.

My old church, and the people in it, weren't so open minded, which may be why I am so opposed to religion now.  When I was five, my Sunday School teacher was upset with me when I tolder her I wanted to be a scientist when I grew up, she said all scientists didn't believe in God and would go to hell.  Ofcourse, I would later find out that I was going to hell anyway for believing in black holes.

Are you irreligious or an athiest?
