That's what our colleges and public schools are for.

I don't think that having faith means a pointless life. It takes all kinds of things for people to get by--I don't really care what a person believes so long as they leave me alone about it, and don't attempt to push their beliefs onto me personally or through the laws of the government.

I thought they are by saying there is no God.
However, without God life is pointless. But with God theres all the point in the world. I mean we live for God.

Because It is not my problem what people believe or not. Most of atheist are not proseletist, We just want that religion do not interfer in our lifes or in the education of our children. The day that religious people, who really are proseletist, restrain themselves of lobbying for influence everybody through common law, it will not be necesary any kind of confrontation.

I dont understand how helping the poor, feeding the hungry, and spreading love is a pointless life.
God bless,

We don't? It's why I am here. But I try to realistic about it. All I can do is to try persuade people to think more about when their faith isn't consistent with real-world evidence, and to get them to see the dangers of weakening the separation of church and state.

You will be held accountable for every person you lead astray.You may not believe the same as we do,but the punishment will come back to you 10 fold for every person you deceive with your false words.I'm not talking about hell,either.What I'm saying is what goes around comes around.In other words,you do reap what you sow,wether you choose to believe it or not. I really hope you're all prepared for what you're heaping upon your own heads.

Because most of them either have too much contemt for them or are too ignorant to give a credible debate. The rest of them actually believe that they have a right to their beliefs.

I only present my case, and that is mainly for intellectual exorcise. I really don't care what nonsense people chose to believe as long as they make an informed choice and don't push it on me.
