Can an Atheist argue someone out of faith?
#24
RE: Can an Atheist argue someone out of faith?
well EV when ever you want to come to an agreement that it's far more unlikely for an atheist to fully understand faith in God, than a theist and thus commonly confuse http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/faith with their own colloquial use of http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/blind+faith I'll stop bringing it up. Faith isn't about proof, it's in confidently trusting that the gaps that experience has are proven to be just as consistent as the experience. It's not being in denial of anything, nor self-justification or rationalization.
"There ought to be a term that would designate those who actually follow the teachings of Jesus, since the word 'Christian' has been largely divorced from those teachings, and so polluted by fundamentalists that it has come to connote their polar opposite: intolerance, vindictive hatred, and bigotry." -- Philip Stater, Huffington Post
