Kudos to our theist members
June 13, 2013 at 1:10 pm
I wanted to take a moment to say "Thank You" to all of the theist member here at AF.org. Specifically, Thanks to those who have stuck around and shouldered the heat they get day in and day out.
I genuinely respect you all for standing up for what you believe in. While I completely disagree with the vast majority of what you believe, I have to give you props for sticking it out amongst the wolves. We can be a harsh bunch and it would be so much easier for you to just give up what is likely an unwinnable battle but you don't. You hang on and continue to defend your views.
Thank you for helping to make this forum such and enjoyable and informative place to hang out.

I really wish we had more muslims on this forum. It's pretty boring having to wait a day to see what muslim scholar comes up with next.
Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.
Impersonation is treason.

I concur without the theists it would be less fun.
Sometimes though.......

And Hindus too... I must admit I'm almost entirely ignorant of Hinduism, aside from knowing they have a pantheon of deities, believe in reincarnation, and cows are sacred.

There are too many religions to know them all to any depth.
Hindus seem to have the same fascination with magical statues as the catholics though if the milk drinking Ganesh is anything to go by.
