Ex Theists

[Pippy]

Shit.

I was a devout atheist because I was very sure of myself and in-your-face about it. I would call a lot of the folk here devout.

The "You don't care what I think" was taken wrong. I meant I am sure you guys will reply with the fact that the "ex-theist" thread doesn't apply to me, and that I should not share what my belief path was because I am not one of you.

Adrian, that's two posts today with no content and only threats and insults. That starts what we try to avoid between us. Ban me, please. Ban me. Ban me. Hit me with you big stick and feel all nerdy and powerful. Than you said no one can be devout to disbelief. That is a statement. I think you can be, devotion is just a level of belief, and disbelief still requires a leap of faith. I am certainly not here to cause trouble. I have more respect for you and myself than that.

I just felt like sharing what path I went, if only to show that we are all similar. I am ways looking for ways we can agree, for things we have in common. I don't have a fetish with arguing.

Thanks guys,
