Dear Michael C*******,

There is a big difference from what I am doing and jehovahs witness coming to your door.  The JW's are a cult that are spreading untrue ideas, whereas I am cautioning people not to act on faith but to act on reason.  People should NOT be free to believe what they want to believe.  If this were true then there would be even more killing going on.  What people believe needs to watched, criticized, and regulated.

  Hey man, this is a good site. I share the same common belief as you, god was created out of ignorance. I have written many essays and have done some very intellectual thought processes in the feild of god and other such nonsense.
 
  But i feel that you are kind of close minded. People should be free to believe what they want to believe. You are shoving atheist's beliefs down pepoples throat. Your shirts and posters are all very christian bashing, which is not what atheism is all about. Its about not beileving in some god or spiritual being, not 'shove your cross up your ass' Atheism should not be a negative thing, it should be positive, 'believe what you want. just don't try to change my ways' Think about it, by flaunting your beliefs and trying to change others in such a negative way you are no better than some jehovahs witness coming to your door and try to get you to join them, and your no better than some christian person who is intolerant of our beliefs. You both act the same, just believe different things.
 
  If you want to e-mail me back with any reply at all, i would appreciate it.
