RE: How to be a strong atheist in a rather straightforward way

I'm sure that comes from the theist that are transfixed. One of my principal lessons of Christianity is to be in the world yet not of the world. If you transfix your world on proving or disproving God you miss out on a true communion because you're too of the world. Transifxing on anything too much puts blinders on and causes posturing and leads to fanatacism. I know tons of people fanatical about money, sex, hate. At least as a christian, when I do get momentarily transfixed it's on a more positive aspect of life than the material BS we swim through.
