I just signed up and am looking to have a serious discussion re atheism. I'm not an atheist, but I'm not a fundie, either and am not looking for the usual foodfight stuff. My position is an odd one. I can see the exit from here, if you will, and all things considered, I'd be happy if materialistic atheism were true, but I just can't make sense of it on many levels, as it seems as faith-based as anything else.
I would like discuss it from the ground up, meaning no assumptions about where I am coming from or assuming where I'm going. I will also not assume. I'm not interested in dogma on either side, but there are questions I can't seem to get answered.
In a weird way, this is akin to a deathbed de-conversion opportunity, so if anyone wants to engage in an intelligent fasion, I'd love that.
