re why do people become atheists in article may athos rutgers edu gt b prism gatech edu randal lee nicholas mandock writes much stuff deleted now i have a question for bob why in the world would any self respecting atheist want to subscribe to a christian news group i have a difficult enough time keeping up with it and i think i know something about the subject excuse me but what makes you think that just because he s atheist he doesn t know anything about christianity in my albeit limited experience atheists are often the ones who know more about the bible having searched it from end to end for answers i myself am a christian but that doesn t mean i consider myself more of an authority on my religion i just have a different perspective on it more biased in favor naturally it seems quite obvious why he is subscribed if i may infer from what he says he is looking for an explanation who are we to question his motives anyway at the very least although i dislike this kind of logic one could hope that he will see the light critcism will i fear not give him a very positive picture of christians bob reminds me of my roommate in order to disbelieve atheism he says he will need to be proven wrong about it well i don t even waste my time trying i tell him that he ll just have to take my word for it in response he tells me he will say an atheist s prayer for me with regard to this i guess i don t really feel sentiments of this order can be proven faith has a lot to do with it this is why those who search the bible from cover to cover for answers won t necessarily get what they re looking for of course that doesn t help anyone who doesn t already have faith what a big catch i discovered this quite recently when i ran into an agnostic looking for an explanation of my faith and i quickly discovered that i could give him nothing more than my life story and a description of my nature faith is a very personal thing any attempt to prove the facts behind it must be questioned good luck bob and best regards likewise no matter what you believe randal lee nicholas mandock catechist gt b prism gatech edu i am your clock i bind unto myself today vera noyes i am your religion the strong name of the noye midway uchicago edu i own you trinity no disclaimer what lard st patrick s breastplate is there to disclaim
