Not long ago, I was speaking with an atheist concerning the problems which occur when an atheist and a theist jump on the main topic of the existence of god. He suggested that the atheist ought to be prepared for this kind of encounter. But, I ask why? Why attempt to reason having a superstitious soul? Nevertheless, the atheist stated he was rather passionate about convincing and converting believers into atheists to be able to keep up with the separation of church and state. Okay so, let's discuss this we could?

Indeed, he might be correct in the thoughts about the separation of church assuring - but going around and out of one's way to purposefully harass people is what many religious individuals are doing now. Yes, an atheist, at least in a good many areas of the world, will invariably enter into unanticipated conversations about such things, but perhaps it is best to smile and nod one's head rather than place it onto a chopping block.

Being passionate about one's personal mission is really a noble trait, I do not knock it, however it probably isn't the easy way win friends and influence individuals the present period. Further, Personally, i find arguing or debating this topic to become unenlightening, if someone will claim superstition as fact, there's nowhere to choose it, other than to leave and never waste any more time. Why bother, it might be like attempting to convince a Juvenile Chimpanzee he should quit his pursuit of the next promised banana. You can't convince someone against their will, not a Chimpanzee or the other upright walking carbon bi-pedal species.

Should Britain remain a Christian nation?

For atheists to point out that we must remove "god" in the pledge of allegiance or remove manger scenes from the parks, or perhaps crosses from the surface of a hill, well that isn't going to win any friends or influence any people either. Atheists cannot get upset with Christians promoting their beliefs and attempt the same sort of strategy to promote their own agenda unless they do so in hypocrisy and in that situation they aren't fighting the good fight with reason. This in and of itself defeats the purpose of many atheists to convert Christians, Muslims, Hindus, along with other religious folks.
