Some just don't take religion seriously, and remain atheists. We're a varied bunch with varying amounts of information on a subject we often don't take seriously.
I realize atheists like to claim they were former theists, but for all the claims, I'm seeing an almost-embarrassing level of ignorance about their theism.
How many atheists here can talk about actually learning about what their religion claims beyond a sixth-grade level?
I get the feeling being dragged to church by mummy and daddy isn't enough to make you a Christian any more than eating cereal makes you a vegan.
There's more to it than that.
Well I think the important thing here is you get to feel superior.
Anyway, what is there to know about your religion that I don't get?
Do you think it is a mystery to me and one day I may see the light and go "oh that's what they see!".
So come on what am I missing?
You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.
