Why I Don't Want To Be An Atheist

RE: Why I Don't Want To Be An Atheist
Unfortunately, being an atheist is not a choice most of us make.  It's a conclusion we come to.  I didn't choose to not believe in God.  I only chose to look for him with an open mind.  Atheism was the conclusion of that search.
Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately?  Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use.  Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel.  Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.

Bah, people were dressing up Asherah Poles long before Jesus.

That's not actually related to christmas, which is a n. european cultural syncretism...not A.N.E. poly/henotheism, lol....but don't let me rain on your pattern-seeking parade. The better comparison to asherah poles would be maypoles, still unrelated - but at least it isn't some left field nutter shit.

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.

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!

You seem well fortified to hold out against the seductive call of godlessness.  I see you have posted just this one time.  I suppose you're thinking once and you're a philosopher, twice and you're a pervert?  But do as you like.  

I don't need everyone to be an atheist.  I don't need you to defend what you believe, either.  I just need you to respect the privilege of every human being to act in accordance with whatever it is they hold sacred and not seek to impose your teachings on the rest of us.  Deal?
