Because He doesn't like those people.

He doesn't like the babies he just created so he maimed them.  
You are a smart girl, aren't you. And this god you worship ?
What if you have a baby and hr doesn't like them, or decides he doesn't like you ?
Every religion is true one way or another. It is true when understood metaphorically. But when it gets stuck in its own metaphors, interpreting them as facts, then you are in trouble. - Joseph Campbell  Popcorn

I would just have to live with it. But that's actually one possibility that puts me off the idea of having children.

Why are you responding to me then? Go read Socrates or something, smart one.

Ideologies. An atheist’s world view can be shaped by an ideology just as much as an Abrahamist’s world view can be shaped by Islam, Judaism, or Christianity.

You equate the meaning/definition of "religious" with having an "ideaology". How convenient.

I reject pretty much anything mainstream science has to say. It's all bogus.

She says, as she is typing on a computer, using the internet, communicating using satellites, using a phone, navigation device, music player, video player, with access to more information than anytime in history, that fits in a pocket, all brought to you by...wait for it... SCIENCE.

Oh yeah, not to mention a life expectancy almost twice as long as it was in 1900. Again, thanks to SCIENCE.

I haven't been here for a while, so I forgot how clueless you really are.

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.

RE: Every person is religious
I was "religious" as a kid because I was born into a catholic family, made to go to mass every Sunday, went to catholic school for 9 years, but finished high school in a public school. That was as much of their shit I could handle, quit going to mass around the age of 17, and have always been an Atheist.
I never believed a word of it, even as a kid. Family and friends thought I was a believer, but they were all wrong.
How would you define the word "religious" anyway?
