Re: Why not?
On the one hand you argue:
[Atheists argue about religion] because there is something in them that is mindful of their Creator and the mere fact that they give Him such 'undue' attention should speak very loudly to you that they do in fact care and that they are in fact effected by the notion of God.
In this thread, on the other hand, you say:
I think its odd to not, at some point, have the discussion come up amongst a good circle of friends or within a family.
It sounds to me like you obsess about the whole deal a lot more than I do, than most atheists that I know do.

Those who would sacrifice an essential liberty for a temporary security will lose both, and deserve neither. -- Benjamin Franklin
