What Happens When Clergy Lose Their Faith?
#8
RE: What Happens When Clergy Lose Their Faith?
Many priests and strong believers alike have de-converted. Obviously harbouring a good level of doubt. Met a girl online who PMed me and with a very aggressive message about my atheism. We talked for a while and she later told me that she doesn't really believe either. She couldn't really come out because of her religious family. It's like she was only attacking me and my atheism because of the indoctrination.
I asked her if she really believed in a god, no was the answer.

If there are people like that, who act as if religious but are not. Makes you wonder how many atheists are out there.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan

Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.

Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.

You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
