re: Baylor University Survey On Religion: 'Almost No Atheists Voted For Trump'

My statement about atheists being better than agnostics in this regard is based on their study and reasoning through the issue to come to a conclusion, albeit a wrong one. Granted, I'm painting with a broad brush for both atheists and agnostics, but generally speaking what I said is true. Agnostics who remain agnostics are so because they haven't spent a sufficient amount of time really thinking through the issue; they tend to take the middle road of thinking it's not possible to know God or that He even exists and therefore live their lives as if there isn't a God. Like I said, they are practical atheists but don't want to be numbered with the atheists. As much as I think atheists are foolish and wrong, at least I can admire their ability to take a stand on what they believe.

being "atheist" is impossible... at best, "really doubtful agnostic" is about as far away from Evangelical Christian as a person can be, in the vein of this discussion...

you cannot say with 100% certainty that there is NO god, like "atheist" claim... there is no irrefutable evidence to ledger that 100%... you'd have to be omnipotent to know 100% there is NO god... being omnipotent would make you, yourself God, as that is one of his/her characteristics, as we are told... if you are God, that negates your original premise that there is NO god...

i get a kick out of atheist too... pretentious as shite, while being wrong about their core belief at the jump...

and as far as everyone in this thread, every single one of us has a 50/50 chance of being right... your "faith" is no more valid or correct, regardless of who you believe in, how many Sundays your arse hits the pew, or how many verses you memorize/know, than someone who's never put stock in any man made religion...

at the end of the day, we are all 50% right, 50% wrong... possibly... that's the REALITY of the situation
