Honest Question to Atheists - Best Argument?
#57
RE: Honest Question to Atheists - Best Argument?
I'll admit I'm sometimes surprised by some arguments - None of which have changed my mind but simply showed me a different perspective on one or two issues. For example, I used to laugh at people who criticize "atheist fundamentalists" like Dawkins because arguably all they do is write books and give lectures - Then someone who was an atheist as well pointed me out that the bible is just a book as well, and so are any other texts - That was thought provoking and changed my mind on a set of things - Namely I don't think people literally commit harm just in the name of religion but there's a competition between many variables that lead people to violence. Indeed, the bible is just a collection of silly words, it's not like there's a gun pointed at people's heads telling them they have to accept the bible as divine. Some arguments and opinions by Reza Aslan got me thinking as well.
Whoever fights monsters should see to it that in the process he does not become a monster. And if you gaze long enough into an abyss, the abyss will gaze back into you
