it isn't in our nature to think of a God, it is in our nature to seek answers and the concept of God is most influenced in this world.

Oh good! Another thread of atheists patting themselves inn the back!
You did good, kid... but it seems Facebook isn't the best venue for such interactions... so many wrongfully entered carriage returns resulting in posting before all points are addressed.

Yeah, you guys are BEAST!
I just hope we don't get a Christian come in and tell us how HE won a debate, cos that would take us back to square one...

errr... I know you're a native speaker, but I... didn't follow. "we", "us" and "HE" are who, in this case?

Yeah, next thing you know we'll be meeting once a week in big buildings we've constructed just to keep telling ourselves how right we are!
Hey, wait. That sounds familiar...
I thought the OP kinda raised a good point; the "conspiracy" language is used a lot in religious arguments, but rarely with any thought as to the actual motivation behind such a thing. I don't necessarily think discussing that is a bad thing.

I thought that was exactly the purpose of this forum?

If that were true we wouldn't be letting your ilk in to tell us how wrong we are.
It's a discussion forum, not an echo chamber.

Anyone and everyone is allowed into a church. The hosts make the rules and could evict dissenters, although I've never seen that happen. After all, a Christian church exists for its non members. So this site is more fundamentalist than any church I've known.

The church I grew up in never evicted anyone either. A lot of the adults got really pissed one time when some young guys brought their black buddy to church one Sunday though.
Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.
