I was kinda a believer at one point in life. When I was around 9-10. Didn't see god as the perfect all knowing non-temporal being. Just looked at it as I would with santa. Since you never see either of them. I even thought I could tell god what to do as well. I was in school and it was raining outside and I told god to stop it. Funny enough it stopped a few minutes later.
I believed in god for a far smaller amount of time than you EvF. It only lasted a couple of weeks. Then I grew up.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Interesting post...
I guess you could say I was a Christian for about a week when I was 8 and the Gideons came to our school and said your sould could be saved if you read a bible passage every night. I read a few of the daily suggested readings, then I started from the start, then I scrapped it because it was stupid and G.I. Joes are more badass.

So is this a suggestion to believers to take certain pills?

Well, to quote Bill Hicks: How come people always flip and think they're Jesus? Why not Buddha? Particularly in America, where more people resemble Buddha than Jesus.
