Try to refrain from putting words in my mouth Cheese. I don't care if you do or do not believe. I don't preach to anyone, and I expect that same courtesy in return. If I choose to go to Church, THEN I wish to be preached at. If you have an issue with someone preaching to you, tell THEM! You'll notice I never hop into these threads until well after the discussion has started, and yet you and other anti-religious persons on the site seem to always be starting threads like this one. You are the one who keeps bringing it all up, and yet you tell me that if I'm allowed to preach, you should also be able to?
Also, you have no idea how close religion is to my heart. You don't know how far or close I am to the church, whether I go every Sunday, or anything about my personal beliefs. You don't know if I pass over the collection plate or not, yet you jab. Always jabbing.
Religions have done some bad things. They've also done some really good things as well. Why can't you accept that some people like to believe there's something more to live than the hell we're put through on Earth? As I've said before, a 'zealot' without religion is still a psycho.
Every single thread on religion turns into a 'you're wrong, and I want you to prove to me that Jesus existed' thread. Some of us have faith in things we can't explain. Do you ever stop to ask why the 'big bang' can't be properly explained? You ever ask yourself what happens if something mystical did cause it? No. You just assume science will get to it one day. It's another form of faith, Cheese. Just another religion.
Science caused the atomic bomb, but you don't blame science for those deaths, you just look at the horrors religion caused. I might have to tell you that the horrors science has caused/is causing are just as, if not worse.

Fly ...if you dont like what I say then put me on Ignore. No biggy here.
I dont have a church, mosque or any other temple to say what I want...so I speak where I can. You dont have to open these threads up if it disturbs you.
I cant prove my theories Fly....but thats not the point is it? I dont teach children about Hell. Why do you have a problem with that?
