Quote:That's what follows, given these two facts. We're both atheists. You believe people will always be religious.Religious -and- irreligious, yes. As we've always been. Some of our oldest writings regarding gods also contain the oldest exclamations of atheism on record. We've always been a mixed bag.
Ok, so now we're getting somewhere. Now you sound reasonable to me. So what makes you think we can't make it so that virtually all people become irreligious?
