Atheism on the rise in every single US state.

[LnGrrrR]

Atheist here. Not proud atheist, because technically atheism is nothing to be 'proud' of. I'm proud of my critical thinking skills.

I call ElectroBolt.

I call the crossbow traps, grenade mines, and electric shotgun.

The atheist percentage will increase astromically right after the Rapture happens.
But soon after, that number will decrease again, as people turn to God and become former atheists.
End times harvest! Book it.

Angel_Luv, tell me, do you really think that, if God popped out of the sky and started taking people with him, that wouldn't convert atheists? lol

Or do you think the Rapture will be that just a bunch of people die off suddenly without overt notice from God?

The very fact that you call it a "harvest" honestly freaks me the out.

If you are certain, certain that faith
Is just a know-nothing mask


Why do you still ask?

[Darrin]

I'm Atheist.

Me, Too.

[Darrin]

Lol, why are athiests always so self righteous?

We have to create our own personal religion--not have one handed to us. It means we've given it thought...most of us anyway.

John Lennon said that Americans would become atheists?

When the did that happen?

hence why I said 77% of the USA still considers themselves christian to break away from the atheism for a moment and throw out there, Lennon is still wrong for a few more decades considering he said Christianity would die out and it appears to be doing so.

completely disagree. the zealots have just as much choice as you do.

He was right.

Church attendance has taken a huge dip and more people are turning away from Christianity every year. Eventually it will die out.

Of course, it will be replaced by something else.

Atheists always defend their atheism so....I don't know....what's the word....religiously.

Actually, they're probably Agnostics. Agnostics are not sure on the existence of any particular god.

So, you're clever post failed.

Badly.

[angel_luv]

In 30-40 years, when you'll still be saying stuff like this and quoting that comic book known as the bible, I'll be laughing.

Of course, you'll probably say something clever like "God takes his time" or "We don't live on God's timeline" or something to that effect.

It's all so clever.

By the way, could you please tell me what happens to Jews, Muslims, Hindus, Buddhists, etc., during this "Rapture" thing?

"You, then, why do you judge your brother? Or why do you look down on your brother? For we will all stand before God's judgment seat.

It is written: 'As surely as I live," says the Lord, 'Every knee will bow before me; Every tongue will confess to God.'

So then, each of us will give an account of himself to God. "

77% still say they're some denomination of christian.

What exactly are you misunderstanding, because its something.

where are these "huge dip in church attendance" numbers?

Church attendance has been taking a dip for years.

Do some research.

Now, saying you're Christian and actually attending church are two very distinct matters. I work with several people that call themselves Catholics but only one of them actually goes to church.

You didn't answer the question.

So, I'll ask it once again:

Have you not heard of the book "Soul Harvest" from the Left Behind Series by Tim Lahaye and Jerry Jenkins? You should read it. Awesome book; wonderful series.

In answer to your question:
The Pharoah of Egypt who, dealt with Moses, experienced ten incredible plauges on him and his people, and yet still his heart hardened.

People witnessed Jesus' miracles firsthand, yet they did not all believe Jesus is who He said He was.


The same will unfortunately be true regarding some atheists in the Rapture.
Some will repent and turn to God, but not all.
Revelation 9- if you care to read more.

Revelation was written by John in the island of Patmos.

He was alone for years. Do you know what happens to your mind when you're alone for that long?

And, there is a cannabis like plant that grows in Patmos. Judging by some of the spectacular descriptive writing that one can find in that book, such as when John describes god's vehicle (car), it was highly probable that John was partaking in some of the substance.

Well, I was wrong.

I have no qualms admitting to it.
