Question to those who do or do not doubt Christianity

You should learn your history. In god we trust wasn't adopted as our motto until 1956, it wasn't placed on our coin money until 1864 and wasn't placed on our paper money until 1957. Most these things happen far after the US Civil War while the imprinting of "In God We Trust" happened right towards the end of the war.

This phrase was conceived by Salmon P. Chase, the U.S. Treasury Secretary under President Abraham Lincoln. Chase wrote in an 1861 letter to James Pollock, then Director of the Mint in Philadelphia, that "no nation can be strong except in the strength of God, or safe except in His defense. The trust of our people in God should be declared on our national coins." Aspirations for the motto arose surrounding the turmoil and heightened religious sentiment that existed during the Civil War. The Reverend M. R. Watkinson, in a letter dated 13 November 1861, petitioned the Treasury Department to add a statement recognising "Almighty God in some form in our coins." However Treasury Secretary Chase did not submit the motto with the words "In God We Trust" until December 9, 1863.

You can't also say that no president has never been an atheist, you can only claim that no president has claimed they were one. It would literally be political suicide to out yourself as an atheist because something like 54% of Americans wouldn't vote for an atheist based on that one criteria alone. There are suspicions that Obama might be an atheist or at least an agnostic.

This shows irrational rationalization yet again, you said that you've taken this idea to heart yet you obviously haven't. That's like slapping me in the face, saying you're sorry, and slapping me again. You aren't really sorry in that situation because you did it again. If you took the idea of irrational rationalization seriously you would question everything about what you would believe and your god most of all. I doubt that you appropriately question the existence of your god however, seeing as how you believe yourself to be so dependent on this idea. You couldn't imagine your life without a deity so you wouldn't risk losing such idea's so you don't question it appropriately. As I have said before, it doesn't matter if you question the details if you don't appropriately question the core.

I've actually answered this before, because religion is based for the most part around culture and the brainwashing of children

Freeist in what sense? Are you refering to the freedom of speech? If you think that's the case, then check this out: http://www.atheistunderworld.com/2011/12/19/theists-threaten-kill-atheists-again/

I also think that it's funny that in the list of religions that you said you searched that you also searched religions that do not have deities...yet you heard a deities voice? So this means that you list is either an intentional delusion meant to deceive or that you have no idea what those religions/philosophies of life were about. I'm also not saying that culture and background are the only factors but they are indeed factors to some extent. The reason that you didn't convert back to Catholicism is because you didn't agree with how that deity was portrayed and based on the brainwashing nature of Catholicism you had inclination towards Christianity.

Are you insinuating that you do not believe in the Christian deity and that you do not believe in the claims of Jesus Christ?

You may claim that you've verified the core of theism but that under the belief that theism is correct. Have you never took a second thought about your "visions" and thought that it might just be some sort of self induced delusion or some mirage due to your irrational belief in a deity? Have you never tried to think of all the ways in which your deity can't exist or tried to come up with secular reasons to explain all of the supernatural events in which you claim? As far as the quote in which you used, it is correct, but it don't mean that all that is beneficial is so in the most optimal way. Picking up a single piece of trash only once a year and throwing it away is a beneficial act but in comparison to the amount of litter there is in the world. It almost makes no difference when compared to a group who devotes an entire day every week to cleaning up an entire area.

Apathetic Agnosticism is a view which concludes that even if one or more deities exist, they do not appear to be concerned about the fate of humans. Therefore, their existence has little impact on personal human affairs and should be of little theological interest. So it's really more like indifference towards the existence of a god rather than the rejection of it.

I'm actually not doing his work as I have said before. Hpothetically lets say that he does exist, if I were doing "his" work, then why would that work be (for the most part) against him?

As far as yourself, what do you do that's productive in this world alone? Do you help a soup kitchens, big brother, or any kind of volunteer work? I'm really just looking for anything at all really except for preaching or anything like that.

I have already studied up on this subject, and again does it not strike you odd that some form of embracing God was put on coins at the time Of one of the most sugniffigant Atheist presidents ever?? (Abraham Lincoln) Or is this just so happens to be another "coincidence" like in Bill's theory's??

That is another "sign in which" atheists look so hard for..

It doe not strike me as odd because the love of money is able to have persuasion over many things.
I would not doubt that the prince of the holy roman empire may have had his hand in promoting the God delusion so that he and others could have your ancestors as slaves.

Why then is Christianity Not denounced, after years without this supposivly forcing that occurred??

Atheist do not look for signs they look for evidence. It seems to me that the believers are the ones who see so many signs because they are so often looking and praising a make believe God when they think they have seen a sign.

It seems that I had read some where that it is a wicked and adulteress people who seek after signs but the only type of sign that they will receive is that of Jonah. {A wale of a fish story}

It is true, to further explain, I have heard atheists on here say for God to give a sign, that is why I felt that Atheists felt this way...Sorry to you, if it offended you....and it is true that wicked people will seek after signs when righteous will look for miracles....I hope this helps....

No, because according to Bill. Lincoln wasn't concerned with slavery but about the south reuniting with the north, even if it meant slavery to keep going!

Jeeze, you're so full of poop. No atheist is aksing for "god to give a sign"--atheists don't believe there is a god, remember? An atheist might ask you to provide evidence for a god, but absent a belief in any god, no one is going to be asking for "signs."

Goofy.

Slavery has evolved.

It is a very slow process but it is taking place.
We are not as smart as you may think we are.
We are slow to evolve.
