converting back unto theism - yes it's true.

[Dotard]

TW had a dream in which he dreamt he was a child being baptized. From this dream he concludes there is an invisible sky-daddy creator of the universe.

I would conclude, based on this thread, TW left his religion based on emotions and returned to the same for emotional reasons. There still exists no rational reason to believe in such a thing. Some people just need the warm fuzzies to get thru each day. The realization of a cold hard uncaring unconcious universe with no promises of love or everlasting life is a bit much for emotionally weak people to handle. Much like some people cannot handle loneliness and get into unhealthy, unhappy and dangerous relationships rather than be alone.

Are we (or others) going to be treated to the "I used to be an atheist!" line now? Much like Kirk Cameron.

"I used to be an atheist and believed there was no God! Then I stopped my car and prayed......"
"I used to be an atheist and believed there was no God! Then I had a dream....."

Even as an atheist I have stated more than once to others, some people need Jesus. The violent, the lonely, the depressed. Some people just need something to keep them from throwing their arms in the air and saying "I give up!'. If that's what TW needs to keep him going, more power to him. As long as he doesn't attempt to convince others of some kind of underlying external reality to his beliefs and start supporting christianity based legislation there isn't any problem with him creating his own reality within the confines of his own mind.
