Problem being is most likely the facts will never be completely "in". We are terriably limited creatures after all. And just because we think we "know" anything and what we think we "know" makes sense to us, it doesn't mean it is. You believe as you do, let them believe as they will. Minus the judgemental bullcrap, because you do is lower yourself.

If you find morality is not your main reason for believing in a divine being, what is?
I feel the average christian is no different than a murderer on death row
To me the real key to survival is RESPECT
The only difference is the average christian cowers into false cover of 'morality', and the murderer knows what they did

This thread isn't about me and I don't want to write an essay about myself just at this hour. And what attrocity?? Considering the fact you yourself spew absolutes yourself with absolutely no ability to factually back it up. Also, do you not claim you are correct because they cannot prove their beliefs to be true? And logic enters in at no point on either side, although your side likes to claim otherwise.
I believe as I do, and quite a few numbers believe as well, I am not the only one, I just prepose a arguement for the silent majority!
If it can't be proven right, it MUST be assumed wrong.

Actually no your not. You attack belief systems based on the actions of a few and call that logical? I would really have to ask what color is the sun in your world if that is true. And why do you attack? Because your seek to advance your own.

Yet you stand at the "there aint no way" of atheism. You admit you cannot definitively prove your case yet you feel the right to attack them for not being able to definitively prove theirs. And blood has been shed for the advance of atheistic principles, Stalin being a good example of that and his persecution of the Russian Orthodoxy.
