Tentatively Christian; looking for a reasonable discussion

[robvalue]

I doubt very much that religious participation by an atheist pretending to believe that everything they say and hear about religion is true is going to be a health bonus. We see evidence on this forum that quite the opposite of that is true.

You can't turn off being an atheist. So this is kind of irrelevant. It could only support the idea of trying to keep theists deluded. Which has plenty of downsides.

Any amount of feeling removed from reality and responsibility might make you feel better. Like alcohol or drugs. It doesn't mean it's a good idea overall. And I can't drink the religious alcohol if I don't know where it is.
