How important is it to you to convert theists to atheism?

RE: How important is it to you to convert theists to atheism?
First of all, 'deconvert' is much more accurate.

But yes, I want to "drag these backward motherfuckers into the present for the good of the species".

Religions are the most divisive ideology ever conceived. The sooner they fade to nothing more than background noise, the better for us all.

The most moral countries in the world, are the least religious. Nough said.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.
