    I wish to express thanks to Madgiant cofty viviane OTWO (hope I didn't miss anyone ) who addressed me

    Your manner of debate was very refreshing to me... I did not feel threatened nor insulted at any point

    How refreshing to get another person's perspective , to consider firmly held views without a need to crush them

    but to understand them thanks again !!!!

    It is mutual consideration which will draw people... influence a person...

    Gentle reasoning promotes good-will

    Caliber - I think it is a common misunderstanding to think of "atheists" as a group.

    In fact atheists have nothing in common apart from a lack of belief in god. There are atheists who believe all sorts of silly things.

    My concern is with intellectual honesty; with reason, evidence, skepticism and rational thinking. Atheism is just a corollary of those things.

    Cofty..... Agreed with the above but unfortunately for the purpose of debate generalizations are made.

    On the other side of the coin I can think of a number of times when certain ones tried to tell people like

    FHN what she must believe... if she is a believer ... again understanding and consideration are in order

    It is simply impossible to know what each and everyone believes...

    Asking does help however
