Who said you're an idiot? Perhaps if you did a little less assuming and a little more reading then you would see the logic. Obviously MichaelD is trying to start a flame war by calling people with different ideas/views than him weak. Your doing no better by calling someone an idiot.

I don't know why men is in quotes.
Another question I would like to ask is "Why are religious so quick to get defensive?" just say your opinion on the topic. No need for any personal attacks. Or name calling.

I respect people of all religious and those who are also athiest....

Please don't start this... It could end up hurting a lot of people on both sides. At ATOT we're supposed to be a community, respecting each others differences, rather than arguing over things that can never be proved or disproved.

OOOOOOH, no....we're NOT getting into that whole BULLSSHIT trap you God FreakieeDeekees love to do. "Prove that God doesn't exist." Then you start quoting passeges from the bible, matching them up, mathematically with Easter Island, Stonehenge and Madonnas' tattoos. :roll:
I DON'T believe. Period. You can wave John 1.34.23..343.232.1a in my face all day...all it's gonna do it provide a breeze to cool me off.
My life is great and I'm a devote christian. Non-denominational conservative Church of Christ Mutual educationist if any is interested. 
Just ask the 50.9% of the Country that voted W in back in November, that's a lot of people to get an answer from.

I believe in God and I don't feel the need to insult or bait athiests. I wish the respect could be mutual. With many people it is. There's no logical reason for you to feel so irritated by something that you believe doesn't exist, right?
Your question is as stupid as asking a person why they listen to music. Afterall, music doesn't make you stop beating your dog either, but it certainly makes a difference in ones life.
OMGZ0RS GOD IS EVRYWHERE WHEN U C LITENING ITS GOD AND WHEN SUM1 U NOES DIES ITS GOD PLZ JUS NO DAT HE HAS UR INTRESTS IN MINED!!
not really...if you think you're the only one who doesn't see everything right down party lines then I should go bake you a
and slap you upside the head with it. Notice I said 50.9% not the 51% of the Official count, I took into account not all were Christians.

You're making a huge assumption that religious folks rely on their faith as a "crutch" to solve their own problems. I'm not a deeply religious person, but as I see it, people seek God in the same way that they seek friends, family members, even pets. People take comfort in the fact that no matter how tough times are, those things are there for them, as "anchors."
Have you ever asked a friend for advice when you were in a bind? Maybe not to get a real answer, but just to get your thoughts out and maybe reflect on your problem? Some people use prayer in the same way. While you might find that "weak", I find it admirable in some ways. There are far worse ways of dealing with your problems than worship. Drinking and smoking will not "give you the strength", but they will make things hurt a little bit less. Those activities are escapes, while prayer is more reflective.
I like to consider myself strong willed and self sufficient. I usually don't seek God's help to give me the will power to make tough decisions. Others do. As long as one finds strength and motivation, who cares about the means by which he/she obtains it?
No you aren't, I'm right in there with you, althought being pro-choice is not necessarily pro-abortion but the fundies don't understand that one either. Their going to continue to get defenisve and flame you but they can't prove God exists anymore than you can prove he doesn't so the great conundrum continues....religion was designed this way for a reason.
