The day I become a believer is when everyone in the world has a shared public experience with said supernatural force.

We are not rational creatures, just rationalizing ones.

http://www.cosmicfingerprints.com/atheist-to-christian/

I found it interesting because he mentions his time spent on the first Richard Dawkin's web site. I fleetingly joined what was probably the new site (it was 2008 so not sure) so I missed all the controversy that happened to cause the orginal site to close. Maybe some of you were members of the site back then and remember this happening.

Richard discusses his appearance on Premier Radio, which I think was what you went on Adrian? I remember listening to you debating a Christian on a radio show.

I thought of you Lucent, as this guy's experience sounds very similar to what you shared with us.

An interesting video all round. It gets boring towards the end when they take questions.

What a great video! I was crying, his story is so inspirational, for me as a believer but also he reflected some of the true stresses that Christians face.

Thank you for this link, it was so great!!!!

Guy's lying. I was an admin there at the time - he had absolutely nothing to do with it.

Peter Harrison, who was a staff member there at the time also, wrote about it on his blog: http://realityismyreligion.wordpress.com.../#comments

Why would you believe a word he said when he has outright lied so unashamedly?

Because salty is a gullible xtian idiot?? (Just guessing here)

Now now don't be nasty!

The guys an old codger with an overactive opinion of himself. The basics of what he is saying are correct though, and the reason the Dork closed down what he did was because of the extreme negativism that made this endeavour look bad: what with him complaining about the vitreol in his mail box when his forum was guilty of the same.

Why do you think I am being "nasty" fr0d0??

My dear Hobbit I could NOT get to the level of "nastiness" that xtians are capable of.

She's an easy target and you're making personal insults of no merit to the discussion. Two wrongs don't make a right *wags parenting finger*
