I don’t consider Christianity to be on the same level as all other secular subjects. A person doesn’t become a Christian, or realize he/she is a Christian, as a simple quick decision of hey, why not, that looks easy
yet those Christians seem to expect it from others with absurdity like Pascals wager.
hey, why not, that looks easy, as they do with so many other subjects, including atheism IMO. What’s not quick and easy about atheism?
I didn't choose to be atheist anymore then I choose to pass gas. I can hold it in but that would be rather painful and will come out sooner or later.
How does one choose to not believe something? I cannot choose to believe in a deity as in my mind it's unnecessary and in most cases absurdity.
Darwin was finishing up his Beagle voyage, one of his first stops on land was to visit some atheist geologists. Can you help me out with an old earth there buddy? I’m sure they assured him that if he needed geological evidence for an old earth, he would certainly have it!
It's seems you know nothing about Darwin or his beliefs.
Their engagement with people on personal views seems to get around to flat earths and flying spaghetti monsters pretty quickly
These are used to show why your argument doesn't make sense to us. Unfortunately if we make up
an example of something we see as the same you get offended. ....
