The Problem with Christians

[Mr.wizard]

First, you're lying.
You chose god because you got used to it. By parents, teachers, or whatever... society in general. You believed there was a god.
Then, when presented with evolution, your pre-ingrained notion of god was a bit at odds with it... and your mind decided to solve the dissonance by ditching the newcomer.

Is your notion of god accepting of you lying?

While it may be true that children learn about God from parents and teachers, etc., this does not account for the atheists who come to believe that God exists. Their upbringing, society's pull notwithstanding, includes learning all the standard arguments against theism from their parents  and (let's be honest)an increasingly hostile cadre of atheist professors.

But putting that aside, why is it the case the one's notion of God is at odds with evolution? Mine isn't. The Catholic Church's isn't. You must have some bible-thumping, fundamentalist caricature in mind...

Wait a minute, you really think children who have atheist parents are being taught arguments against theism? Yes atheist parents instead of bed time stories, read their children rebuttal's to the Kalam Cosmological Argument.
