Conciousness.
Yes.
I don't understand the question, but probably yes - atheists have personal freedom to choose what they want.
Shouldn't, "YMMV" be there somewhere?
In response to which question? The defining moment question? Possibly.
Did you always have faith or did you suddenly get it. So many people in America seem to suddenly get faith and are "born again." For them this appears to be a magnificent awakening.
It can be exactly the same for an atheist. The best analogy I can come up with would be the feeling I imagine a slave got when his chains were finally broken. I called that moment conciousness.
I know its probably totally alien to you but for many Atheists the idea of God is an anathema. The concept is actually repugnant. In some ways more for Jesus than for any other aspect.
I don't want to belabour that point as it is obviously the very things you believe in that horrify me. Difficult to communicate such things without someone getting really upset.
