The five lonely forum atheists and their sock puppets, hoping a Christian may be here to listen.
The need to dump and transfer is so strong isn't it?
Hey, don't knock these forums. Last time I checked, many Christian forums either don't allow atheists to join or prohibit them from speaking in the "main" areas. Even though an atheist would be seriously outnumbered in one of these forums, there is the perpetual risk of "OMG! OMG! He's saying something that nobody can refute!" So, Christians make sure they are insulated from those who may challenge their views. IMO, this is cowardice.
But in these forums, a Christian is free to speak his/her mind in any section of the forum. It's almost as if nobody here is afraid of hearing a theistic point of view. If we are "God bashing" at least we invite you to speak up for your imaginary friend. But what if the mods DID make theists remain in a small section of our forum? What would you think of these forums then?

Foaming at the mouth, at something that doesn't exist - is the definition of insanity.
If large groups of people tried to legislate laws inspired by some thing that YOU didn't think existed, you'd be frothing at the mouth, too.

And if the intellectually ambitious of society are being filtered through this system, then of course there will be a measurable correlation between the educated and atheistic philosophies.
Yes, in many courses of study in academia, one is exposed to atheistic ideas. So what? Nobody is penalized for being a theist. I think the problem is that indoctrination can be unwound by simple exposure to sensical ideas. Pity, pity.
Reminds me of my philosophy of religion professor. Many Christians in the class felt like he was pushing atheistic ideas on them. In class discussion, he challenged theistic views, as well as atheistic ones. He always kept his personal religious views to himself. I got to know him over the semesters, and it turned out... he was a Christian! Lol! The persecution complex doesn't even have to involve atheists apparently, just theists who explore different points of view.
