Responding to Atheism

I'm going to keep it rolling. Keep it moving. My response to atheism is strictly [ha] a response to Biblical criticism. I was an unbeliever [I prefer the term unbeliever because most atheists are non-militant and more agnostic or apathetic than atheistic] most of my life, and though isolationism has always been my MO the few family and friends I've had have been almost exclusively atheists. I can relate to the skeptic but that has little to do with it because all of the atheists I've known couldn't care less. They see science and religion as pretty much the same as me. Nonsense. Ideology. they don't start out like that, they become that when appeal to the masses has been achieved. They are, in effect, politicized.

So, when an atheist, or theist for that matter, agnostic or whatever, anyone, says the Bible isn't factual because it says light was created after plants, I say, no it doesn't say that. Very basic stuff. Then, if we choose, we can hammer out the details. On forums like this, it's best to do that in small steps. No one wants to drown in text.

I think it is a personal journey and nobody else can do it for you. I was one of those who laughed at the Bible's "fairy tales". Now I am not too sure.
