    If getting information directly from you wasn't like pulling duck's teeth, it wouldn't be necessary.

    Is using google to look up a user name that is displayed publicly considered snooping these days?

    Do you give cop outs in other parts of your life as well

    "Sorry IRS I prefer to only give you a quarter of my tax debt"

    "Sorry wife, I prefer to only acknowledge that we have a commitment, I'm still going to see other people"

    "Sorry officer, I realize there is a speed limit, but I didn't think it applied to me"

    Why do you think God would buy this?

    Your in Him

    It's a non-stance. What does it mean? How does this assumption you've made affect your life? By not revealing those things, you've left nothing of substance there for anyone to discuss, let alone pass judgement. As soon as someone exposes an inconsistency or irrationality in your position, you'll be doing the "oh, but that's not what I really meant" dance, and you don't have the footwork to impress this crowd.

    ..."Atheist" isn't any better.
    It's a whole lot more defensible than yours.

    So you assume God exists. Why do you think God would be happy with you stopping there? Don't you think God wants something from us? Why else would He create us? Does He want sacrifices? If so, what kind? What about prayers? How should we pray? Does He care what you do with your johnson, or your friend's johnson? How do you know these things? What is your reference? If it's the Bible, then all your answers are laid out there, and it says that God wants whole heck of a lot more than just acknowledgement of His existence. If you disregard the Bible, what makes you think you know the mind of God better than the 2 BILLION Christians in the world today, or the billions of others throughout history?

    It's basically covering your bases, you continue to live a sinful lifestyle while thinking that your assumption will keep you in His Good Graces.

    I'm pretty sure that it won't even come close.

    2 Timothy 3:16 - All scripture [is] given by inspiration of God, and [is] profitable for doctrine, for reproof, for correction, for instruction in righteousness:

    James 2:10 - For whosoever shall keep the whole law, and yet offend in one [point], he is guilty of all.

    So, to sum up, it makes you damned

    Yours in Him

    It's because I care more about "spirituality" than religion.

    I found this video



    I think it pretty well summarizes the general makeup of an atheist. After 1:45 it's pretty much nonsense

    There's hope for you yet! At least you're not one of those unisexual couples, where both partners are only one sex that are taking the world over as we speak and try to get gay marriage legaslated :/

    I even heard there are gays who pretend that they're straight too! Can you believe that?

    And you've got a great hobby I like to dance too!

    Well, they were created by God obviously, and then drowned in the Great Flood.

    It surprises me every time how difficult it seems for atheists to grasp simple concepts.
