Registration, on the other hand, is simple, completely free of charge, and does not require you to give out any personal information at all. As soon as you register, you can take part in some of the happy fun things at the forums such as posting messages, voting in polls, sending private messages to people and being told that this is where we drink tea and eat cod.

    Of course I'm not forcing you to do anything if you don't want to, but seriously, what have you got to lose? Five seconds of your life?

    If the whole world were atheist...

    Hm? I didn't change my viewpoint, the majority of the people I am talking to are from said secular-stable countries that I mentioned, and I was explaining why I think about death more than they do, that is to say, my country is less stable than their's.

    Not to change the subject, but I do believe that less theistic one is, the better there lives are. This is proved by high quality of life, education, and affluence in secular countries as opposed to ones lacking those things. While the common conclusion might be "The secularist beliefs are...

    If the whole world were atheist...

    I'm saying some people have a short life of terrible quality, wherein you seem to be presenting the false dichotomy of "long life and terrible quality or short life and wonderful quality".

    If the whole world were atheist...

Well, there'd be no reason to not say, put anthrax on my last...

    If the whole world were atheist...

    If the whole world were atheist...

    It is hard to know what everyone would do, on such a massive scale, however we can pare down personal reaction. I would've already been dead right now in a world of atheism. If the world was this shitty, and there was no hope, no possible way to see the future, or to see something better, no...
