“Priest said the increasing numbers of people unaffiliated with religion could be partly to blame on Christians failing to live with a true spirit of joy and conviction”

That’s right, it’s YOUR fault for not reaching us..

It’s not like atheists thought about it, and came to our own thoughts and conclusions, by weighing both sides of the issue..

Oh right, christianity is about self-guilt.

Ya it’s YOUR fault I am going to hell.. Good luck sleeping

Atheist Nexus is quite the forum and subgroups that have their own websites.
Worth a trip to: atheistnexus.org/forum

Take care fellow freethinkers!

By Jeremy Priest’s thinking, pet lover groups form due to a belief in dog?

@Bill – The problem with religion is largely that it stops people from thinking. Mr. Priest’s comments show that this has worked for him. Score 1 for complete and utter lack of imagination. If religion were the only reason people congregated, especially in our current world, would we even have the internet to be reading this article on?

Apparently Jeremy Priest has no understanding of those who don’t share his belief in a god. Non-religious students are not forming a common belief. That would be contradictory. Rather, they are establishing common cause, or an affinity group. This is done in the spirit of free inquiry, rather than the acceptance of a creed.
