Does the relevance of that answer sway the mind-boggling claims of organized religion?
Is willful ignorance superior to potential nihilism?
And let's do away with the claims that atheism has anything to prove. The unnamed anchors being attached to atheism are extensions of a lifetime doctrine that requires loyalty on the pain of eternal damnation.
"Those guys are probably lying" is one of the simplest and most honest ways to move a society forward. Allusions to "athiest baggage" is silliness.
edit: whoops, I'm way behind. I haven't even read these dubious claims of atheist baggage.
edit: bah, some rather unlettered argument-begetting-circular reasoning. Nothing particularly worth adding other than Jesus did say unto his people that they should expect to mocked for their beliefs. I expect them (including the CP's own) to least take the abuse with some semblance of dignity befitting immortal leaders of morality.
