Why are Atheists on Religiousforums?

I should use more emoticons in future. A :p at the end of that would have made the difference.
It's a sin, I tell ya'! It's a grave sin to the Forum God to not use emoticons right. Yup. Now, we have to find a stoning smiley and throw at you.

Well, I thought the a stoned smiley would be close enough:

Well, this has certainly been an entertaining thread. It reminds me of the other day when a gorgeous lady came to the door with a young child. She said, "My church is inviting non-members to join us this Sunday for an open house." I smiled and without hesitation replied, "Trust me, you really don't want me to attend. Seriously. You don't know what you are asking. Heck, you'd probably all need weeks of therapy after my visit."

Being fairly young, mid 20's or so, she took it quite well and left laughing and smiling. That's nice because the elderly folks we get usually are running scared.

I'm still trying to imagine me attending a Jehovah's Witness church service and actually take the people seriously. Too funny, really.

Obviously they realise you are a challenging character for conversion so they are trying out different strategies. I wonder what they will try next? :p

I think it might say something about the religious mindset that it regards this as a sensible question.
It is an interesting indication of some popular misconceptions about what atheism and religion are supposed to be, no doubt.
