You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

"I think I use the term “radical” rather loosely, just for emphasis. If you describe yourself as “atheist,” some people will say, “Don’t you mean ‘agnostic’?” I have to reply that I really do mean atheist, I really do not believe that there is a god; in fact, I am convinced that there is not a god (a subtle difference). I see not a shred of evidence to suggest that there is one ... etc., etc. It’s easier to say that I am a radical atheist, just to signal that I really mean it, have thought about it a great deal, and that it’s an opinion I hold seriously." - Douglas Adams (and I echo the sentiment) 
I LOLed at this.. Just tell your friend to google 'Catholic church attrocities'! And he/she is very dumb or very indoctrinated

Hahaha, Catholic logic.

He denies that priests ever rape children the majority of the time, and occasionally says that it was a bad priest, but that does not reflect on the catholic faith. It would be cool if someone could help me out, and give me some good information about the catholic churches fucked up history. I told him some stories, but guess it was not good enough. Please help me! He is driving me crazy with his ignorance Find smarter friends! This ones likely a lost cause.

They only killed, raped and pillaged by the millions, so not as bad as.... nevermind, I can't think of much worse.
Religion is the number one murderer in the world, and Christianity is the leading horse by a long shot. |
