lol reminds me of this analogy my (semi) religious friend gave me.

It went like this: Say you're at the bus station and you wanna go home, but none of the buses has any indication as to its destination. You can either choose to remain at the station (i.e. atheist), or choose one and hope it gets you home (choose a religion).

I couldn't help but lol

interesting indeed. But I don't see how being "stuck" somewhere equates to being atheist. Also, the person wants to go home. Atheists don't necessarily have any destination to which they want to go. Certainly not one where they need to make guesses.

Not stuck. The atheist would be the one who refused to paly this silly game of chance. The analogy is wrong anyways. See this.

I forgot to mention I don't agree with him.
