The reason we ARE agnostics and atheists is BECAUSE we know more about religion than religious people, brotherlylove. You don't seem to realize that many of us use to BE religious people. We've given over years of our lives to praying, studying the bible, teaching, preaching, witnessing, and all the rest of it - until we took a good, hard look at it and realized it was all stuff and nonsense (to put it mildly). There is NOTHING you are saying to us that we haven't heard before, in volumes.
And don't you dare come back with the old, tired, worn-out lines of 'oh, you weren't a real christian' or 'you didn't give it enough of a chance' or 'you were never exposed to the real word of god,' because I will throw up (and maybe hunt you down to beat you with a bible). We've heard those condescending phrases trip from the lips of some smug, self-satisfied, holier-than-thou, judgmental, brainless sheep more times than we can count. They are the words of someone calling us liars and then having the gall to say they know more about what we thought and felt than we do.
It is time for all you god-botherers to get together and come up with a new script - this one is old and tiresome.
