Reply #43: Atheists are simply people who don't believe in God. You have specified

[VegasWolf]

a meaningless categorization. A Berkley prof is a long way from Hitler. Your argument that
atheists are a "group" is a pretty weak argument, sort of like asserting that white people kill more people than black people.

You have missed my point entirely, Christianity is a man made organization that SOME PEOPLE believe is divinely inspired. If that were the case and Christianity was so fucked up 500 years ago, then how could it be divinely inspired. Maybe god got better I guess.

If you agree that Christianity is just a group of people in a common man-made organization with no special claims to any divinity, well then, happy dandy that it cleaned up its act. I still could care less about joining it, just as I don't care about joining the local tennis club.

BTW, I guess we agree that 500 years ago Christianity was a major problem for the world.

In my opinion, the same as Bush's Christianity is today for the world.
