Aside from that, there are other reasons why I come to this forum, which are mainly to expand my knowledge, discuss with people, make some jokes, get new ideas, and learn about other religions as well. These are things that I find to be the most valuable in my life. So, that's why I am here.
I didn't mean defending it in general was a waste, but specifically with Atheists it pretty much is. It's as close to the political party system as you can get with two ends of the beliefs spectrum. Atheism being far left in this case and Islam probably being the most right of any belief system. It's probably going to be hardest to convert an Atheist out of anybody to anything, that's all I meant. Not that you shouldn't defend your beliefs
