No. We as humans need to understand that shit happens, and hope that religion falls through the cracks of history as evolution continues proving it wrong. If by "All have sinned" you therefore mean that all need a savior (i.e. Christianity), Then know that I reject that. What is sin, and how do you know that I've done it?
Here it comes.....
"The bible says......" yadda yadda yadda. The bible is not proof of your claims, it merely supports your delusions.
Ok, no Bible quotes. But if there is an idea in the Bible that also agrees with an idea that we can both agree on, can I use that?
For example- loving your neighbor as yourself. Treating others the way you would want to be treated. Do you agree with that idea as being a good idea and worthy of trying to follow?
". . . let the atheists themselves choose a god. They will find only one divinity who ever uttered their isolation; only one religion in which God seemed for an instant to be an atheist." -G. K. Chesterton
