This is the Christian subforum on atheistforums.org. It is absolutely an unreasonable request to attempt to exclude atheists from any portion of a forum specifically for us.

The Christian subforum is not a haven for Christians on this website. It is a place for everyone to discuss Christianity.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great

Nice try, but I asked for the simplest explanation. Not a rationalisation.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Crap - double-post. +1 to post count, I suppose. What a coincidence.
