He may not even have been an atheist!

Quote:The Syrian Observatory for Human Rights said the boy had been arguing with someone about the existence of God, and was heard to say: "Even if the Prophet Mohammad returns, I will not become a believer."

But other sources suggested that the comment was misheard, and that the boy was actually arguing with another customer over giving him a free coffee, saying "Even if the Prophet returns, I will not give you a free coffee."

What a great way to get sympathy for their cause.
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.

Never underestimate the power of very stupid people in large groups

Arguing with an engineer is like wrestling with a pig in mud ..... after a while you realise that the pig likes it!

Who says the religious are ever after sympathy? Fear works so much better.

Meanwhile, here in America, Christian fundies are drooling at the idea of being able to do this...
Christian apologetics is the art of rolling a dog turd in sugar and selling it as a donut.
