That is kind of you, but I won't hold my breath. God is a superstition.

Are you just a God-denier or are you also a God-hater?

[Raymondo]

You cannot hate something that does not exist.

Many, many do.  Ok, so just a God-denier.   So tell me about your experience when you came to the Lord in humble surrender.

When one person suffers from a delusion it is called insanity. When many people suffer from a delusion it is called religion.

A non-sequitur, but that's ok.

If you could reason with religious people there would be no religious people.

Yes, I've heard this one too.

I am not a drug or alcohol addict, so I have no need for such practices.

You cannot reason with religious people. No amount of evidence will convince them otherwise. That is the problem. Their faith completely blinds them; they will ignore everything that does not confirm their beliefs (confirmation bias). They just keep spouting off the same thing over and over (put God in your life first). They just can't help themselves.

Lately I have been texting with a woman in the hope of getting into her pants and the other day she texted me and told me she was a nurturer, but she misspelled the word, something like 'neuturer'.  I knew what she meant due to the context, so I texted back and said, did you say you were a 'neuterer' and I at least got back a LOL and a smiley face.  Deep down we both know she is, so it was good to laugh about it. 

Likely she wants to use a strap-on and go balls deep on your quivering anus.
Lube up and you'll be fine.
Plus, the only risk is giving birth to a 10" turd.

Hope this helps.

So tell me about your former prayer life and how you used to worship the Lord?

If I have one thing against religion is how it teaches people to be content with not understanding. Ignorance is the blight of our times.

I have nothing against religious people, I understand why they are the way they are.

Yes, you cannot reason with them. If you try to reason with them, they will just quote scripture. Its a never-ending cycle. You're best bet is to let people like MOS and Tbombz have their fantasies.

good opportunity for extra protein

[Raymondo]

Tell me about how you came to that understanding.

Religiosity is negatively correlated with intelligence.

I hope he can appreciate my Getbig-jokes & opinions, should I ever meet him...

Have you seen Man of Steel?  Should you ever meet him, he is perfectly capable of snapping you like a twig, but he won't because he's a Man of God.  

[Man of Steel]

Religiosity is negatively correlated with intelligence.

Yes, there is religious research from other parties.

Tell me about how you came to that understanding.

Also, tell me about your former prayer life and how you used to worship the Lord?

[Raymondo]

Also, religiosity is quite negatively correlated with education.

Religion kills understanding and fosters ignorance.

Again, there is religious research from other parties.   There are many brilliant religious folks.

Tell me about how you came to that understanding.

Also, tell me about your former prayer life and how you used to worship the Lord?

If you would, tell me about your former study of scripture.

You are starting to get creepy.

God does not exist and religion is for people who need a crutch.

Don't trust the research from religious people. Many of these religious groups had to go create their own journals, in order to get published. Their articles were not being accepted into many peer-reviewed articles, so they had to create their own journals. 

If a religious study is cited, be wary. Ensure that its from a reputable journal.

Francis Collins (born April 14, 1950) is an American physician-geneticist noted for his discoveries of disease genes and his leadership of the Human Genome Project. He is director of the National Institutes of Health (NIH) in Bethesda, Maryland.

Before being appointed director of the NIH, Collins led the Human Genome Project and other genomics research initiatives as director of the National Human Genome Research Institute (NHGRI), one of the 27 institutes and centers at NIH. Before joining NHGRI, he earned a reputation as a gene hunter at the University of Michigan. He has been elected to the Institute of Medicine and the National Academy of Sciences, and has received the Presidential Medal of Freedom and the National Medal of Science.

He familiarized himself with the evidence for and against God in cosmology, and used Mere Christianity by C. S. Lewis as a foundation to re-examine his religious view. He eventually came to a conclusion, and became an Evangelical Christian during a hike on a fall afternoon. He has described himself as a "serious Christian".

God does not exist and religion is for people who need a crutch.

Ok, so you have no previous prayer life, no previous form of worship, no previous study of scripture, no personal surrender to God as outlined in scripture and essentially no previous experience with God whatsoever.

What you have presented in response to my requests are religious cliches, logical fallacies, articles on religious research (of which you took no part in), presuppositions and conclusions grounded in your uninformed, subjective opinions.  This is the essence of your absolute statement that God does not exist and is superstition.
