<<Atheists are religionists who feel compelled to shout from the rooftops that God does not exist>> From my experience(limited at best as I am only 70) most atheists simply do not believe there is a god and leave it at that. Very few " evangelize". Faith is a very wonderful thing and I admire you for having so much.

"he heart of every atheist is a longing for knowledge of place and purpose, and inestimable bitterness because of ignorance." I think you are very close with your analysis and you seem to be a very articulate and intelligent person. But what I don't understand is why you and the other religionists are the smart ones and the rest of us are dummies. How come you have the universe "all figured out" while the rest of us idiots are struggling to come to terms with some reason for its existence. I think you short change the whole thing. If you can help us dummies out, and I'm not just talking about the nonbelievers on this thread but very famous men and women throughout history, you will do a great service. Perhaps you'll be kind enough to enlighten us. You can start by answering the same question I asked Watson, ie in your mind what does God look like? I keep asking this question and never get an answer. Do you think (not believe) there is an afterlife......and your evidence is????
