    BH> Hi Bill McGarrity!   
      
    BH> People who grow up without a firm belief in God tend not to have a   
    BH> moral compass.  Consider how horrible a society full of atheists would   
    BH> be.  In their mindset, since there is no consequences for your actions   
    BH> then *everything* is permissable.  That is why the world is the way it   
    BH> is and it will continue to decline as more and more people kick God out   
    BH> of the equation.   
    BM> What a crock of shit that is.  I know many agnostics/atheists who have   
    BM> more compassion and understanding of others in their pinky than most   
    BM> Christians have in their entire deluted mindset.  Point in fact, two   
      
    BH> I admit that there are those out there that claim to be Christian but   
    BH> do not act accordingly.  My point being is that without the belief in   
    BH> God and consequences for your actions, people will tend to do things   
    BH> they wouldn't normally do.  I did not infer that *all* non-believers   
    BH> are subject to that. Would you justify theft if you knew that there   
    BH> would be no consequences for thievery?  Or telling lies?   
      
   Through your previous message you inferred the Trump theory that all Muslims   
   should be grouped into the sphere of non-admittance into the country therefore   
   your statement regarding atheists seemed to follow the same theory.  Just   
   because one is an atheist doesn't mean they don't know the difference between   
   right and wrong.     
      
    BM> close friends, the wife a devote born again Christian, the husband an   
    BM> atheist.  Both have moral character well above many "religious" people   
    BM> I know. You statement above is part of the problem where you think   
    BM> yours is the one true diety.  You can certainly pray according to your   
    BM> choice but don't blame others who don't feel the need to.   
      
    BH> John 14:6 (KJV 1900) 6A "Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth,   
    BH> and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me."   
      
   And to an atheist the Bible is a book on the NY Times best seller list.  Think   
   of Jesus' most important lesson of 'Love thy neighbor', as according to God,   
   man is made in His image and likeness.... therefore, the love of another is   
   following the statement you quoted.      
      
    BM> Let's see, and prove me if I am wrong.  There have been more people   
    BM> killed throughout history due to "God" based wars on whose was the   
    BM> better diety.  Do you actually think the differences with Islam just   
      
    BH> Islam has been around since the 6th century.  I'm not that delusional   
    BH> :)   
      
   OK...   
      
    BM> started 15 years ago? Look at the issue is Ireland (two Christin based   
    BM> groups).  Look at the issues with Tibet with China.  It will never end   
    BM> until all religions sit back and allow the total freedom of religious   
      
    BH> The Vatican has the most innocent blood on its hands in the name of God   
    BH> than any other institution throughout human history.   
      
   Probably, so where does one draw te line on who or what religion is the most   
   dangerous?   
      
    BH> I'm Canadian so I am not familiar with the American constitution.   
      
      
   I'm sure you've heard it one hundred times as it certainly follows the Canadian   
   outlook on free speech and religious freedoms.   
      
    BH> Jesus is coming back soon, so I'll pray that He'll reveal the truth to   
    BH> you.   
      
   And you take it upon yourself to think I am not a Christian? How Christian of   
   you. Just because I've shared something that refutes your original statements   
   you piled me into the "Those that need saving" catagory.  Can you see the   
   problem? I've been a Christian all my life BUT, I am not blinded by the   
   tunnel-vision attitude of so called Christians who want to "save" me.  I am   
   doing quite well on my own. Appreciate the offer though but if I were you, you   
   may want to start looking in the mirror to actually see who needs the saving.   
      
   Be well...
