I have tried before and come back to religion. How can I STAY an unbeliever once I've deconverted?
Deconvert from what, there are thousands of religions and if you hold to any but the Christian belief of God you are already an atheist in the eyes of the only God.

God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

Obvious troll is obvious.
Nobody can deconvert you, you have to be internally convinced that the ideas behind your religious beliefs are false and you can only do that for yourself. Until you realize that you have been wrong all along and are willing to be honest with yourself (and everyone else), you're not fooling anyone.
There is nothing demonstrably true that religion can provide mankind that cannot be achieved as well or better through secular means.

Yeah, GC... you should lead with the puppies, and then break out the hellfire later. Carrots n sticks, my friend....
I was speaking out for Christianity, let the other religions speak for themselves.
