Ouch, dude. Your style of proselytizing doesn't help the rest of us, who try to establish a meaningful relationship, then bring up religion when the time is right. Slow down, stop yelling, and try to be intelligent when discussing religion.
Well said. While I pounce on proselytizers and wave the atheist flag I'm actually a spiritual person, albeit in an unconventional way. Like many here I just don't take assertions by others without some sort of supporting evidence.
Personally the word "belief" raises my hackles. Spirituality is something sought by the individual and is much deeper and "hands on" in an investigative way rather than simply accepting as fact some set of rules and stories asserted by others or so called religious books.
