I don't even believe in hell.I certainly have never said anything about people who disagree with me getting in even moderate trouble.

Some of these are religious some are not. I am sure there are "converts" to Atheist thought who are just "changing clothes" and rejecting religion as it frees them from some wacko beliefs and guilt. It doesn't take much to think "Hey I reject god" and then not give it any other thought.Sean Wrighthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14485575602984697926noreply@blogger.com
