Nope. I do not promote Atheism any more than Christians should convert people. Did you know that, in the old Testament, it is a sin to convert a person to your religion? That's why the Jewish, even if you marry them, will never try to convert you. I normally don't delve in to Bible texts unless I know about them, so you'll never hear me claim I'm an expert on the Bible. Feel free to correct me.

What I tend to do is either argue a point a religious person makes using established scientific facts or I tear apart an argument by using their own logic against them. If that logic can't be shown to have flaws, that is. So I just refute arguments I am presented with, I generally don't create an argument designed to tear it apart.

What I find odd is that the two largest growing groups in the United States are Evangelical Christians and Atheists/Agnostics.

And I don't know why, but I am happy for someone who deconverts or at least is willing to question their faith. Perhaps because when I deconverted I myself stopped, for the most part, having bouts of chronic depression. But that's just me.

Hmmm... Atheist Missionary... well, a missionary is generally someone who goes to convert someone to a core set of beliefs (i.e. Christianity). What people forget a lot is that Atheism has no core set of beliefs, no dogma. There are no specific rules that govern our lives. Saying I'm an atheist just means I don't believe in a higher power, it says nothing about the laws of physics.

So haha.
