non-atheists are welcome in this thread.
no matter who you are, or what your belief is, we all know one thing in common---there are more atheists than we think we know. there is a huge percentage of atheists who are "in the closet" out of fear of rejection and retaliation.
i don't have concrete statistics to reflect what i've said, but as a start, please click this link:
USA Today
some statistics may actually say otherwise, that there is only a minor percentage of the (world) population who are atheists, which basically makes my statement accurate---that there are lots of "closet atheists".
there are 15 millions atheists in America alone---that outnumbers any Muslims, Jews, and Buddhists in the US when doubled. so if you're an atheist wanting to come out in the open---do not worry---you've got company.

btw, it's way easier to believe in GOD. it's easier to believe GOD created the universe. if you believe in a creator it would then automatically eliminate any scientific theories about the universe's origin, thus, you omit the process of critical thinking.

--- ooops chad relax. there is no conflict between science and christianity.
it would then automatically eliminate any scientific theories
--- ooops creationism is scientific too... you are the one who eliminated these ideas, in the process you omit the process of critical thinking... what about that?
theories about the universe's origin
--- because its a lie... its never proven true and correct... right? So how do i know its a lie? simply because cannot be proven. what do you call that?
it's ok to admit. i'll welcome you with open arms.
--- see you want to recruit me... and you are lying to tell me you are not selling your ideas... hay mga bakakon jud.
If your numbers are right... with all those numbers, how come your athiesm failed on the aspect of charity... can you please tell us why giving is not good? I got an answer already... athiesm exclusive para sa mga "LAMOT", "MADAMOT", "GREEDY". Gud luck to your greedy whatever...
