In high school, most of the popular kids like jocks and cheerleaders came from theists and were proud to be theists. Most of the nerdy unpopular kids who got picked on or the loner kid sitting around writing poetry all day were admitted atheists.

Does this explain the anger and grumpiness that one group seems to have on the internet over the other and why internet techie types who dominate message boards tend to be anti-theist?

Sadly it shows why Chrsitianity has lost over ten per cent in less than a decade!



Anti atheism is doing so much damage to Christianity that it is in reality anti Christianity – David Manley



It takes in reality only one to make a quarrel. It is useless for the sheep to pass resolutions in favour of vegetarianism, while the wolf remains of a different opinion. - William Ralph Inge.



Why so blind to what causes the backlash against Christianity?



ALL the other religions and atheists live in peace and are ONLY attacked by BAD Christians which causes all GOOD Christians to despair at the damage they do!



The self destruction of Christianity is underway and the only thing that can stop it is to abandon the terrible human emotions, seek to rediscover the idea of a loving god and act like it!



Posts like yours that drive people further away from God are driving you towards hell.



So who are you working for the devil or the antichrist because it sure ain't the loving god!

That's funny. Through sheer anger and grumpiness, The Kanon Hara completely misread your post and missed a chance to help pile on the "Atheists are terrible!" bandwagon.



I RO NYYYYY



LOL, NO, TKH, you don't get off with an edit. I copied what you originally said (predicting you'd play it off):



"You sound like some butthurt nerd who got picked on in school and still has the mental age of a teenager."

I was a popular "jock" in high school (oh so long ago), as well as a straight-A student who loved learning, technology, and even chess. And I'm an atheist.



So much for your rather silly generalizations.

Popular kids do whatever is popular to do. They are materialistic and into pop culture. They come from wealthier families and they have the latest fashions. The Christian kids were a different group of kids who were more straight laced. Everyone else falls into outcast and is either nerd, stoner, or whatever. There were not atheist groups of kids when I was in school, but maybe there are now.

First of all, are you attempting to label us as atheists or anti-theists, because there's a difference.



Second, I you're making hefty conclusions and assumptions without providing support for them.



>>most of the popular kids like jocks and cheerleaders came from theists and were proud to be theists



How do you know this?

Why is your assumption that atheists (or anti-theists, again, you're using two different words to describe people here) angry and grumpy?

You cant put billions of people in a single group.

There are popular theists and atheists just as there are nerdy atheists and theists.

Cultural Programming = Peer Pressure is alive and well in your school.

'God' help anyone who doesn't conform... huh... Sparkie...





EDIT



TKH is a typical troll...

Yes it kind of does really, that also explains why most of the Atheists are on the internet speaking their mind rather than in real life which requires courage rather than their natural coward behavior

Not an absolute truth, but it does have truth in it. Truth being atheists tend to think they are smarter than everyone else, as if others do not use their brain when accepting Christ. This explains the rift they create by looking down on others.

Wrong. Most of those nerdy, loner kids were Christians. They weren't doing anyone any harm and just wanted to fit in and they were picked on anyways.

No, but "nerds" tend to have higher IQ's, and are taught to think for theirselves as opposed to being indoctrinated into a belief system when they were too young to question its illogical nature.

I don't think that explains everything. But I can't say that I have a better theory. LOL

I specifically remember punching out christian nerds, why do you think they invented home schooling?

No it doesn't; you're just projecting a false analogy.
