Zero Probability of Evolution. Atheism wrong?

According to the last poll Christians are near 33% of the world, number #1. I didn't ask you what country has more or if Christians have more. I asked can you give me ratios for Christian divorces compared to atheist divorces. Those are the only numbers that I consider relevant.
For example if 2.3 billion Christians divide down to 1 in 50 and 600 million atheist divide down to 1 in 23, atheist have a higher divorce rate because they are out numbered so much.

I dont actually care what you asked, i provided evidence for my answer to billiardsball. Yes i can back up what i said

Pretty good for just a few words, both nonsensical and untrue.

I googled and seen the same figures you saw. Agnostic isn't atheist. The 16% figure was for agnostic and atheist.

Atheist : a person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods.

Agnostic : a person who believes that nothing is known or can be known of the existence or nature of God.

You are arguing semantics

And worse, completely missing or ignoring the point,
which was the claim that Christians are better than atheists.

Of course, we see this sort of (Christian??)
bigotry all the time. One of them here was recently
saying how Christians appreciate beaut y more than
atheists do.

No doubt the girls are prettier and more modest, the men braver and more noble, too.

If you build it they will come
Another couple of notes

Christians are about 70% of the US population and about 80% of the us prison population
Atheists are about 2% of the us population and 0.07% of the us prison population.


Which means if you threw the entirely of atheists out of America you would lose less than 0.1% of the prison population and 93% of the American academy of science


Ain't percentages great???

Did I miss the post about prisons or is this your attempt to shift from the facts I presented?

Agnostic's are not atheist's. You are trying to combine them when you know better. At least try to be honest.

No one is better than anyone. We all are equal though many think $$ makes them better. When a poor man and a rich man die, having no money or billions will buy you nothing.

Yes % are great. According to your figures in prison Christians should out number atheist 35-to-1 which is on or near par with the world figures of Christians to atheists. Percentages are great.

Some have higher moral standards than others, it is my opinion based solely on personal experience that many christians are distinctly lacking in some aspects of human morality

Actually having money will buy you a decent funeral of your own choice.

Beauty as a peson sees it has nothing to do with if they do or don't believe. Sorry you think that matters. Clear our mind of that falseness and everything will become more beautiful to you.

Correction, agnostics are not necessarily atheists. From my experience most are. It appears that you assume that one cannot be both an agnostic and and an atheist. That would indicate that you do not understand what the terms mean. Agnostics merely admit that they can't be sure of their beliefs or in the case of gods, lack of belief. Most atheists will admit that they cannot prove that their is no god and if valid evidence was given for a god they would change their mind. They are agnostic in their approach to their beliefs.

Oh. You were just trying to change the subject from divorce to prison. Why be so dishonest?

Once again, i was providing facts pertaining to percentages that YOU challenged

As for changing the subject, do you want to continue on my discussion with billiardsball or do you want to go down the root you have decided the discussion should go.
