It is freeing to recognize that I have never sinned and it pissed Christians off when I say this. To clarify, in Christianity sin is not simply “the bad things we do” it is specifically an offense against god. God does not exists so i have never sinned against him.
I’ve been an atheist for for 16 years but it was only recently that I realized this distinction. It short-circuits the guilt based evangelism. It forces the christian to first demonstrate that god exists before they can convince me I have sinned and need to be saved from that sin. And to say the least, they are ill equipped to demonstrate the existence of god.
Yeah but they tend to be the “blowy-uppy” type so they tend not to push their agenda either
Once again, you aren’t saying where you live and it’s becoming more and more obvious that it’s because there are crazy Christians there and you don’t want us to know that.
