"If I had thoughtfully considered..."
If I had thoughtfully considered the possibility of God's existence and then rejected it for my own personal reasons, the case would have been a closed. Other priorities like sports, academic commitments, career and family would have preoccupied my mind. If anyone questioned my decision, I'd have politely declined the conversation as invaisive. If I had joined Red Hot Pawn as an Unbeliever in Christ in July, 2007, the Spiritualty Forum would have the very last place I'd spend my time. Why do many present day site members who are avowed atheists and contribute regularly to this active forum feel compelled to defend their rejection of God and proceed to explain their atheist points of view? Is curiosity or interest possibily still alive?
