The only thing that gives me pause is the fact that I’m always critical of people for not really knowing what it is that the say that they believe in.
That is to say that a lot of people who call themselves Christians have very limited knowledge of Christianity.
I’m given pause by the fact the I criticize people for not understanding what they suppose to believe in while I admit my knowledge is limited in what I suppose to NOT believe in.
(Andrew): Atheism is not about knowledge, it’s about absence of belief. If you lack belief that God exists, you’re an atheist. You don’t need to know about things like virgin births or miracles…if you don’t believe, you don’t believe. It’s really that simple.
Bullshit! I lack belief is incoherent.
