Quote:I've examined quite a few "proofs" for the possibility/probability of God, and invariably they all have the same property: they are persuasive to those who believe, unpersuasive to those who don't, and rarely if ever change minds.
If that were true, even if one keeps a belief in a god, belief in a certain god wouldn't change over time, women couldn't vote and blacks would still be slaves.
You might say change can be slow, but the rate of growth of atheists is only second to Islam. Not over all numbers, but in pace of increase in numbers.
Our voice was nothing 11 years ago and now you cannot google "atheist" and news and not find some story somewhere about atheists.
AND if change was not possible the UK which started in a history of theocracy during the dark ages wouldn't be a majority of atheist now.
I once believed and now I don't, but I do not think de conversions are as rare as you might think.
