is it just me, or does the topic title sound like a prelude to a witch-hunt?



“It appeared that there had even been demonstrations to thank Big Brother for raising the chocolate ration to twenty grams a week. And only yesterday, he reflected, it had been announced that the ration was to be reduced to twenty grams a week. Was it possible that they could swallow that, after only twenty-four hours? Yes, they swallowed it.”

I don't believe in athiests. =P

 

In high school and college, a LOT of my friends were athiests, hardcore ones at. You know, the type that not only don't believe in any form of god, but also insist on verbally attacking anyone who DOES believe.

Anyway, after they had their first kid, they "found God". Its very easy to be young (teens, twenties) and claim athiesm. I generally dismiss that as a phase. Hit your 30s, raise a family and STILL be athiest, then I'll credit you as being athiest. =)

Im still surprised that people in this day and age still believe in this god nonsense. I cant imagine how anyone with any shred of intelligence can even think its possible for there to be a god.

Being intelligent or not doesn't define your stance on religious belief. There isn't plausible evidence for such an entity to exist and much as there isn't plausible evidence in the contrary as well. 

Looking down at religious people is just as bad as religious people looking down on non-believers, since everyone has their stance and their personal beliefs. 

I'm my case I strongly believe in two things: Science and the Rede, both which are mutable and ever-changing as none of those two things define by a 100% certainty margin the truth behind the existence of every thing in the physical world. 

This is the belief that allows me to be, at the same time, a geneticist and a wiccan. Both are a process of constant learning and personal evolution.
