Wearing a crucifix
#9
RE: Wearing a crucifix
When I went to the beech, I came across a car with 2 elderly people in side. I saw this cross hanging from the mirror. I couldn't stop looking, whilst getting the feeling of disapointment. Now what made things worse in my mind is that I found myself walking past dozens of people wearing the same thing around their necks. I felt like the only atheist there. So much superstitions and no reason or logic in sight. I then thought to myself "It's just a belief and that it's nothing I should be concerned about". Even though I accept others for their beliefs, I can't hide my feelings about it. Were in the 21st century with technology and knowledge in arms reach and yet people still resort to superstitions. I just couldn't accept it. I was annoyed but I hid it and accepted that alot of people believe this sort of thing and that I should just let them.

I felt allot better when I saw a few people with that atheist symbol around their necks. I guess that was a reminder that I'm not the only one who uses science and reason. I even spotted the evolve fish on the back of cars. So I was happy to see that.

I do fully understand the theist position, I once explored it. I gave it a chance once, it proved to be nonsense but I had always accepted it to be a view. Those crucific crosses sometimes worrys me but only in rare occasions. I'm actually finding more atheists than theists now. Big Grin

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.
