All I want you to do is state what you are like Atheist, Agnostic, Christian, Muslim or whatever, and add a little message to someone who isn't of your belief, a NICE little message. The experiment is to see if we can do the impossible and get people from all opposing faiths to come together for one question on Y/A&Q's. Is anyone game? I'll start.
Hi, I'm born again Christian and I just want to say to the Atheists that even though I don't agree with you that there is no God, I admire your conviction in your beliefs and the intellectual thought most of you put into trying to find the truth.

Maybe some of you didn't understand. You weren't supposed to tell your beliefs, you were supposed to say something good toward someone of another belief like The Dude's White Russian did.

Atheist.
Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. was a Christian and exemplifies everything I respect about Christianity.

As an atheist I would say to the theistic world:
I realize most of you find my lack of belief repulsive, but I am still a good person, with a strong sense of morals and ethics. Although I am convinced that the majority of you are using religion as a "crutch" to get through life, I accept that most of you are also good, moral and ethical people. You simple require something which I do not, and if your beliefs could be confined to just yourselves, I would have no problem with religion. Unfortunately, this is not the case, so I regret I can not say anything positive about religion on the whole, but I'm quite sure there are many good people who subscribe to religion.

hello all i'm agnostic and though i may feel that nobody can say that they totally no for sure one way or the other i must say to the people who believe in a higher power that it takes a lot of conviction to take the stance that you do and i have to give it to you as you stick with it through good and bad times anyway i would like to say to all that i wish more people would truly understand agnosticism and not make assumptions based on what they believe it to be i also would like to plead with the fundamentalists that if you don't have anything nice or positive to say about other people of different religious or non religious beliefs to simply keep your mouths shut

i'm raised as a protestant christian... but in truth i'm more of a agnostic/atheist but i do believe in the morals and all of christianity. i feel like i can follow it without all the god/jesus/everything else. i can learn how to be a good person and have good beliefs that way without having it inscribed in a long story of what jesus did that was good to other people.... so yeah if that makes sense to anyone, i wonder if anyone else feels the same?

I am a Christian, and contrary to what many of you think, I do not hate anyone who has another religion or even a lack of religion. I would love to see each and everyone of you find Christ. I only want what is best for all of you, and for that reason, I pray for the salvation of everyone. I know it is up to you to decide what you want to believe, but it is also my freedom and responsibility to pray for you anyway.

I'm an atheistic agnostic, which means that while I do not believe in God or gods, I also do not believe that either the existence or non-existence of God or gods can be proven. Whatever you believe, that's fine as long as you don't push it on others.
Have a nice day.

I am Catholic and am impressed at the devotioin of Muslims to their religion. Catholics are the easiest people to convert while Muslims are the hardest. That counts for something.

hi,i'm an atheist and i want to say to all religious people that even though you are idiots,i want to live with you around but in order to do this in harmony you will have to understand that religions were made to be an authority system,which is useless and dangerous in these times.technology and education will provide equality for all in the near future
