"In our culture, as part of the so-called western world, there are undoubtedly components of Christian values. I think that among those values there are ethical and humane principles that are applicable to any epoch." - Fidel Castro

That`s basically how i think about it too, exept i think that believing in god`s existence is a cultural value too.
I know people who, i know for sure, are smarter, older and wiser then me, but still believe there is a god.
Who am i to think i know better then them... ???

I just want to make my point here, the existence of a god is not the most fundamental question for a lot of theists (while it seems that for most atheists it is a fundamental question).

THE REASON WHY, someone thinks there is a God is THE THING THEY BELIEF IN, not the idea of god itself.

In other words, someone can decide to rely on (belief in); culture, tradition, other people`s accounts, it`s own feeling, it`s own experience, extreme-scepticism, sceince, etc etc...
and see one or more of these aspects as fundemental and therefor must belief in a god, in order to fallow his/her own logic.

Note that being religious is reasonable.

anyway thanks for listening

It is reasonable to make up nonsense and call it true?

God isn`t even a story.
He`s just reality man, an existing entity.

Hey, I consider myself what you can call a "typical atheist". and i completely disagree.

I think that majority of people aren`t really that dumb, but why are a lot of thier ideas so retarded ???
UN should make consentration camps for people who belief in any form of a god or socialism/collectivism, the only way they can get out is by moving thier lazy ass and learn something for themselves.
They should start by treating africans in the west, haiti and africa because thats where the most benefit can be gain.

wut?
I get what you mean (that some theists don't actually think there's a god but they think it's important to pretend to think there is one) but that sentance is just fucked up.
