This is a way of making myself write something coherent and grammatically correct almost every day. I'm opinionated and need an outlet. I'm also prone to flights of fancy. Thanks for stopping by. |
| This week a new network was launched--the Atheist Network. It will also include the Internet. At the launching party the president of the group stated that since Christians are using new technology and the media, that they will, too. So if Atheists believe there is no god, why do they single out Christians and ignore all other world religions? Muslims claim to have the same god, but with a different understanding of him. Muslims are stricter about practicing their beliefs and evangelizing than Christians. And what about Hindus and Buddhists? Do they not also threaten Atheists? And if they are reacting to Christians, then maybe Christian groups are having more impact than they realize. But why do atheists feel threatened by people who believe differently than they do? It would seem like if someone is a true atheist, he would not care if someone else did something he believed inane. A lot of people are superstitious about black cats or spilled salt. I know that's unsubstantiated, but I don't feel a need to correct everyone or spend money or a lot of effort to teach them not to be superstitious. I'm not saying religion or belief in a god is superstition. I'm comparing it to what atheists claim to believe. I just don't get their drive or passion about this. Hold a different set of beliefs. But don't try to make everybody else feel or think like you. |
