But why deny the existence of God? I am not a Christian, Hindu, Jew, or a Muslim. I am agnostic. Subconsciously we are all agnostic. We do not know if God exists or not. Yet some, followers of all religions, choose to believe that a higher power exists that dictates each and everyone of their afterlives. Sure, it's a fun idea, and I'd love it to be true, but we don't know. The reason I attacked Atheism in that paragraph is because that news article you copied and pasted dealt with a closed minded idiot atheist professor who made smart ass comments about people who choose to have a faith. So I addressed him in my paragraph. So, Benjie, slow down, relax and start breathing! I am not out to get you. If you would have copied and pasted a news article on a TV evangelist who called atheists and agnostics "the walking damned" I would have addressed the hypocrisy. However, in this case, this guy is the one guilty of hypocrisy.

BTW, that was a nice way to take a jab at me. "I can't prove you're not a 4 year old girl." The insult fit perfectly within the context. Something I would have expected on the playground, but irregardless, Good job.
