Every single one of your points could also be turned on the demonstrably larger christian apparatus, and yet you apparently have no trouble seeing the reasons why they do as they do... just not willing to spend even an iota of thought doing the same for a position you don't agree with, huh?
Ah well, it's hardly the only thing you don't think about, I'm sure.
I not sure if you remember, but in another thread I was working out some of the numerology in the Bible and came to the conclusion, that if the "rapture" happened, something like 18,000 people would be taken. I can't say for certain if that will be the case, but the math works. I do know that it will be a very small number. According to statistics, there are around 2.18 billion Christians worldwide. Do the math.
I already know the majority of Christian churches are false(referring to the leadership, not the lay-members), But I get where their motivation comes from.
Why are atheists out burning calories protesting something they don't believe is even true? no one protests Santa. Also why are they celebrating a roman god? You don't find that a bit strange?
