How to convert an atheist
February 20, 2014 at 4:47 pm
The all-knowing
WikiHow reveals the three necessary stages for converting unbelievers. It's aimed specifically at xtians, but I suppose any flavour theist can play.
Be advised, however, that some of the steps might take you out of your comfort zone, notably the ones about being open and honest and using reliable counter-evidence. But then small is the gate and narrow the road, and only a few find it.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

I seen that before. Honestly if christians used that article, it would be a step up. How I think it would be the christian that is converting
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

That would certainly make it ieasier to have a civil conversation with someone. I wonder if anyone has come up with a guide to converting atheists on discussion forums?

I must say G-C, Drippy and the other dumb fucks would be a lot more tolerable if they followed those ideas.

That's right. Science has
not added very much to the ancient biblical revelations and understandings.
It
corrected them.

How to convert an atheist to your belief system: the easy version
Step one: Provide conclusive, testable and verifiable evidence that your god exists
Step two: See step one

I've said it to the christards a thousand times: If you'd just keep it to yourself and leave the rest of us alone, no one would give a shit. You'll notice no one goes around bashing the Hindus and the Buddhists. They managed to fucking figure out how to keep it to themselves. Those god damn christards can't just live and let live. They just HAVE to make sure we not only know about their pathetic god, but we also have to believe the same way they do.

Sounds much better than the classic "Have you heard of Jesus?"
"No, I haven't. Virgin birth, how does that work? Eternal salvation? This sounds like a good deal!"
