Do you think that atheists have a harder time disbelieving in the Christian god than other gods?
In other words, do you think we have to struggle in order to maintain our disbelief in Yahweh/Jesus, but have no struggle disbelieving in Allah or Shiva or Ahura-Mazda, etc?
No. Not necessarily struggle. But I do think most of you have to answer to it more just because most of you are from places where the people around you are mostly Christian rather than those other religions. If that makes sense.
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."
