The truth is that inside, our conscious reveals that we are a part of something much greater than the sum of what we can see.

Be more specific. If you mean on Y!answers, its because I enjoy sharing knowledge that I've accumulated, and a good philosophical "debate". I also feel the need to see what's crawling thru the minds of the faithful, so I'm not surprised when crap like Intelligent Design actually has to be put to a vote by our school boards.
If you mean on the planet earth, then this to is simple. Every species on the planet has one reason to be here...propagating their species (making more for those with a less than stellar vocabulary). I'm impressed though that you claim the conscious mind reveals that faith is a CHOICE, not an inherent trait (which would be SUB-Conscious).

It is not a waste of time, this is evangelism101 - can you refute arguments with integrity, stating your resources,
2Peter 3:14-15 But even if you should suffer for the sake of righteousness, you are blessed. And do not fear intimidation, and do not be troubled, but, sanctify Christ as Lord in your hearts always being ready to make a defense to everyone who asks you to give an account for the hope that is in you, yet with gentleness and reverence; and keep a good conscience so that in the thing in which you slandered, those who revile your good behavior in Christ will be put to shame.

This site , Religion and Spirituality is for and about things that are not to be found in an atheists system. Why they waste time here is beyond me. I guess they have some need to convince others , to reinforce their life.

I think the question is saying here on Religion/Spirituality and not here on earth.

Which brings me to another valuable consideration: Why are any of us wasting our time here? Geez, I've got stuff to do!

Since YOU're so curious, and you are so firm in your beliefs, why are YOU here? Why aren't you doing whatever it is that makes you comfortable in your beliefs? Some of us (atheists) are being entertained... what's your excuse?

I'm not wasting my time here.
I'm here to point out the MANY fallacies and inequities that are inherent in religion.
And given the number of emails I've recieved from people looking to leave the church, I'd say it's working just fine thanks.

Ah, ancient questions revisited. It makes me quite nostalgic.
Mind you, after the hundredth time...
