              What are you talking about:confused: I'm just saying that sure there are atheists who can be idiots and annoying and trying to convert you, and my point is that that also goes for Christians. And about the crap part. Well, I don't think that Christianity per se is crap. But it can be tirring if people can't accept that I'm not a Christian, or whatever. So stop taking it personally; It wasn't a statement made "againts" you. Or maybe, it's ok for you to critisize atheists, but it's not ok for me to critisize Christians, or what:confused:

                Do you make a distiction between someone who chooses to be an atheist, and someone who just doesn't choose to believe in anything? -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!

                  Atheist is a word used by people who beleive in God to describe people who do not beleive in God. People who do not beleive in God do not need to call themselves atheists. They are simply 'normal'. Drinking In The Sun Forgot Password?

I am undecided but not because I can't make up my mind, it's because I don't feel the need to decide, therefore I'm not an agnostic. Atheism requires "active" belief that God doesn't exist. I don't feel that I "believe" one way or the other. therefore I'm not an atheist either. So what am I? I will agree with a previous post and say that I'm simply "normal".

                                  benjymous wrote: I'd be happy to accept that there is a God Yeah, that's a crazy thing about many religious types. They talk like we non-believers *deny* their God. I'm sorry, but of course we'd all like to believe in an after-life, some higher reason for our existence, some higher being that loves us and can forgive us, and can provide us with a Heaven once we die. Unfortunately, I'm not able to believe in such things. If he is real, and I stand before Him on Judgement Day, at least I'll be able to say honestly that I would've believed if I'd had it in me. But surely that's his fault for not giving me that ability? Like Mulder says, "I want to believe", because it would make some sense of things (though I feel it would also cause as many questions as ones it answered like the suffering in the World). That's another thing, whenever you mention the suffering in the World and ask how a loving God could allow it to happen, religious types sort of sigh as though they're bored and they're saying inwardly, "not that old chestnut again"... Well, It really is one of the most pertinent questions. Humans do not DESERVE to suffer and there can be no justification for an innocent child being born disfigured or with disabilities.

                                        Oh ok....maybe I didn't expressed myself properly then :) That can happen. :-D ;P And yes, I have one bone to pick with you!!!! It's a shame you haven't written more of those Image Processing articles. It was a great way for me to learn C# as I know and like image processing. Thanks for 'em. :) :)

I had more planned, but life is just so busy, and now that I don't do any image stuff at work, I find it harder to justify at home.

I don't feel that I "believe" one way or the other. therefore I'm not an atheist either. Yeah, that was what I was getting at. I don't really believe anything and I don't not believe anything - I'd be happy to accept that there is a God, it just doesn't really bother me much one way or another) In my view, an Atheist is someone who makes a firm point to say that they strongly believe that there isn't a God -- Help me! I'm turning into a grapefruit!
