".. Visit Jackson, Mississippi, and you can't miss the First Baptist Church. To Neil Carter, it was like a second home."This is where I grew up," he told Rocca. "My parents were married here. My sisters were both married here. I got baptized here, twice actually."

At the age of 15, Carter says he was "saved" by a youth evangelist."It was a very emotional experience for me," he said. "I really broke down into tears. Almost immediately after I got saved, I began teaching Sunday school. And I did that for about 10 years."

After college, he went to seminary, and thought about becoming a minister. But he started having doubts.

"I like to say that I've always lived with an inner skeptic," he said. "Even when I was a kid, I always had a lot of questions that were never really answered."

His questioning lasted for decades. But five years ago, Carter finally admitted to himself that he's an atheist......."

How Many Americans are Atheists? Fewer than You Might Think.

There is confusion in popular discussion about how many Americans are atheists. Here I review how many Americans are atheists, and why there are such varying estimates of this number.
Short answer: 3%-5% of Americans are atheists.


~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Since that was from 2012, let's go with 7% of Americans are stupid. Hell, let's say 10%.

Looking at our scholastic scores compared to other countries around the globe, it's clear that a lot more than 7% of Americans are stupid.

Will ever hit you that I don't just make shit up? Dude, the USA has more foreign students at our schools than any other nation, ok?

My point was....depite the fact we have the best educational system in the world....I have to stop assuming things are obvious with you, you never seem to pck up on the obvious.

Dude,you know how easy it would be to find out if the USA has the most foreign students? Do you really believe I'd just throw that out knowing you'd love to..."see see see right here it says".....come on shorty.

I'll make it real simple for ya Blake.

Big country
Lotta schools
Should do better than we do scholastically

Even you can figure that out.

Do you honestly believe there will be some dramatic difference? And didn't I jack it up to 10%? Point is you are in the overwelming minority. Why is that?

I was just a little kid when my great grandma died, he was in his 90's. Obviously a sad moment but it came as no surprise, he was dying.

I remember my great granny saying..."it's ok dear he's in a far better place now"...and she really did believe that. And it did help her ease the pain.

Then a few years later she is on her death bed and she calls me over....."don't be sad dear, I'm looking forward to meeting Grandpa in heaven"....and she really believed that. Yes they were simple people, he was from Missouri she was from Oklahoma. Grandms would talk about how her dad traded with the local indian tribes right there on the front lawn.

Peace of mind is why so many people want/need a God, it just makes them feel better about things, yep...soothing. Little shits who play this..."oh yeah, well can ya prove it huh huh can ya can ya"...are so immature and out of touch it;s comical. And if ya notice most internet assholes are atheists.

It's really not a debate.

He does like to rub your nose in it but virgin births, resurrection and eternal happy fun time if you say that your sorry and really mean it are completely unsupportable. You don't even argue the tenets.

Cognitive dissonance is a bitch.

When scholastic scores are broken down by race the US scores are about the same as the rest of the world. US whites score about the same as Euro whites, US Asians score about the same as Asians, etc. etc.

Old Faggot loves to copy-and-paste shit from Jeebotard sites in religion threads while trying to pass them off as unbiased.

So are you gonna go to home depot to get a portable a/c unit for the backyard pad? Summer is just around the corner. I think it's a good idea, for you the only negative is the loud machine noise will drown out her moans, but you can always purchase a cctv system and enjoy the show..
