Hello I’m an atheist who is interested in debate and thought, I was thinking to join these forums to talk about religion with atheists and Christians or any other religious people. Considering that I’m ex-catholic I’m most familiar with Christianity.

Are you familiar with tacos? And if so, where are they?

Being a former Catholic myself, I cannot tell you how many times I have been told by other sects of Christianity that I picked the wrong sect.

Sunnis and Shiites argue the same thing. 

It is exactly like when your parents try to get you to eat food you don't like when you are a kid. "You haven't had it like this".

I see all religions as ice cream, and all sub sects. It all sounds good to all the different sects, and all argue over the different flavors. But ultimately they all have nothing but sugar and impossible utopias.

Hi.

One does not choose their religion. Convictions don't work like choosing an ice cream.

If, someday, I was suffiently convinced that a diety existed, then I would believe that to be true despite what other people's would say.

Anyways, welcome.

Welcome Woof.

I'll discuss with you and joke around, but I won't debate.

And most of us are ex-(insert religion here). Not all of us are rabid about it.

Running joke. If they get too weird just nod and smile and back slowly out of the room.

Only Protestantism disproves itself because Protestantism is in direct violations with the bible.
To your surprise  I can disarm every protestant in minutes while there is little literature on catholic out there debunking Catholicism from a atheist perspective. The best  I have is that Catholicism is self contradictory.

If the bible and the church conflicts who has presidence? And if the catholic chose the church then why even have this bible book around? What is the point of reading from this bible thing?

The rest is the usual
"why should anyone believe what this guy in funny clothing says?"

It also does not help that the RCC has a nasty habit of faking miracles or investigating disturbed people or fakers who want to have a miracle verified by the RCC.
