And risk crossing the beams? Hmmm....I might be up for it.

I don't see how a creationist could just suddenly become an atheist. You can't just switch your beliefs before being convinced. Those things take time.
I don't believe you. Get over it.

The question is not just what would happen if a creationist became merely atheist, but athiest.

Oh, how could I have missed that? I understand entirely now.

Um.   I've imagined fucking Jesus in his nail holes using shit for lube, not sure I could go back to being theistic after that without having the earth vomit me out or something.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.

What if theists became atheist for a day. They don't have to offend god. Just don't do anything religious and research things like evolution and the big bang, natural selection, etc.

So I challenge you creationists to become an atheist for 24 hours. It would be lovely.
