How can your faith be strong then ?

Yet your faith is strong.
Philosophically
Ask Dawkins.
So you don't know any atheists from around where you live..
I do, but they don't evangelise, ie they keep their beliefs to themselves. It would be odd otherwise, having them over for Easter, Christmas and Eid, if they did declare themselves. In fact, one of the atheists I know makes Easter baskets for her friends and the other goes home to spend Christmas with her family.

How does that work ? You are not sure whether or not what you strongly believe in is actually real ? But yet you believe in it strongly because of... philosophy ?
I have strong faith in Christ's word metaphorically; as for factually, I hold an agnostic stance

I asked you, I don't know Dawkins.
The overwhelming majority does not evangelize.. as is your own experience.

I think you don't even know yourself what you believe..
Enmos-we were very rebellious late teens early twenties. Frivolous times were those.
Norsefire-what about you? you seem to have a varied history of religious experience.

No, the question is how old are you? Based on your responses here, single digits leap to mind.
Of course I do
So what's wrong with Spinoza ?
You don't know Dawkins? Is there an atheist alive who can claim that?
Assuming there are more than the three I do know. But there is a Darwin fish group that I do not attend, not being an atheist. Be rather odd to run into your friends there I think and discover they secretly consider you a delusional liar or some such.
He's a child playing games, Ham.
What about me?
Why quote something I said ages ago and try to pass it off as my current opinion?
opinions and views change

And you blame your lack of faith in a god at the time for it ?
SAM- how about you?
Q-I'd love to hear your history with Atheism and all that.

I know who he is, but I don't know him. We've never talked.
For your information I only learned about Dawkins because of this site, and in part because of you.
I watched people talk about Dawkins here for months and I never knew who he was. One time I asked and someone explained it to me.
Darwin fish group ??
Perhaps you know more atheists than you realize..
