If you had a button that would turn all theists into atheists and agnostic?

[KillYourself]

If you had a button that would turn all theists into atheists and agnostic would you push it? why or why not?

I would push the button to turn them into atheists in a heart beat.

[frankiej]

If I had a button that made people post an intro thread, would I push it?

Yes.

[Minimalist]

I'd push the button even if it turned them into little turds. I'd just learn to watch my step for a while.

[Jackalope]

No, I wouldn't.

Were the situation reversed, I would not want anyone else fucking with my personal choices. I try to live by the golden rule.

[Erinome]

No, I wouldn't push it. I think people should be atheists because they've reasonably deduced that gods don't exist.

I would, however, use a Point-of-View Gun on theists. Then they could gain some logical perspectives on theology, and decide for themselves.

[R-e-n-n-a-t]

I wouldn't. They'd still be idiots if they converted via button.

[reverendjeremiah]

Nope.

Im anti-authoritarian, and would more than likely destroy such a button so that none others would use it.

...now...if you had a button that would make human greed no longer exist.....

[Shell B]

I'm not big on pushing hypothetical buttons. If I were that interested in deconversion, I would just do it the tried and true way, kill a bunch of them, burn their churches and threaten them with death should they practice their religions. If the Christians can do it, why can't I?

[Erinome]

Yeah, I would so push a Socialism button. I'd be all over that.

[thesummerqueen]

Atheism might be correlated, but certainly can't be called the causation of intelligence.

Better people figure shit out for themselves. Stupid will be stupid with or without gods.
