I think some people are Christians by default, it's like a hereditary genetic defect. Or, would you say it's spread like child abuse, one generation fiddles with the next generation and so it goes down the line.

I think a lot of people believe in god by default. You know, parents teach heaven and hell and God, because it's an easy, no-brain way to explain difficult concepts to children. So, people are indoctrinated from a young age and a lot of those people never, really, learn to question it, never learn to change those beliefs, they never learn that it is okay to be an atheist.

That is what you are seeing now, a group of atheists who are standing up and saying it is okay not to believe in god, it's okay not to believe in this nonsense. And you know, sometimes you have to scream it out to get your point of view across. That's all it is.

I'm sure the god-botherers would have you believe it is something else, radical atheism, you know, to protect their market share, but it's not.
