As Ive said over a hundred times now...so pay attention...I was raised to be a righteous and religious young man in a very religious family. I also dabbled in other religions along the way. I have as much knowledge and probably more than you do when it comes to Christians or others and what they would say/teach their kids when it comes to Atheism. As a matter of fact I never once heard in MY life, and never heard from any relative, friend or other I have talked to over the years, of a Christian family espousing the benefits of Atheism. Your pedestal Ms Fly is to assume I dont care about Christians as people and simply attack anything I say because I have a 180 degree philosophically different view than you do when it comes to religion. At least thats what you want to let me think.
My kids are well adjusted and happy, and I know you can attest to meeting one of them, and appeared to enjoy his company. The same son you met considers himself a Deist right now, and I certainly do not try to interfere with his choices. Young people tend to look behind many doors for answers that are generally right before their eyes in the first place. He will find the answer he chooses to live by...as will my other children.
Take my comments as you wish...if you consider it insulting then so be it...I could really give a ****e what you or any others think about my philosophy. However, when discussing something I think is relevant, I will chime in...as you do, as it is my right to do so. If you dont like it...well you know.
BTW...please when you are attributing something I have said, like the worms comment above, provide proof of your comment because otherwise it just shows YOUR inability to be open to others viewpoints without reason or hostility.

So because you've never experienced it, it hasn't happened? Right. Why is it that we have to provide proof, but you don't? Why is it hard to believe that my parents have told me that there are people out there who do not believe in God and therefore are only accountable to themselves, however they choose to be accountable to God as well as they believe He exists? Or are only your experiences the true ones?
You put words in my mouth Cheese. I never said you don't care about Christians. Nor do I attack everything you say. If you'll look very carefully at any post I've ever directed at you, I only ever attack you lumping all Christians in with others. Your experiences are not the only ones. We live in a new generation and while you may not see it, nor may your friends, people are starting to allow other thought in their households. You are one fine example of that. Is it so hard to think there may be a Christian out there opposite you who will also allow for discussion of athiesm in their home?
