Even if I am willing to devote my one life to saving a Christian soul there just aren’t 10e12 seconds in my life and very little chance there will be in my afterlife either to make the odds work out, you know.
Humans evolved to be altruistic because being seen to give to others meant that people were more willing to give to them (morality comes from evolution). So showing us that you care about the intellectual development of Christians means that we will be more likely to see you as a respected member of our flock.
Although my faith in the doctrine of reciprocity of intellectual openness is not yet complete, I will strive to be a good atheist and pray to the devil for Christian souls.
