On Sat, 26 Jul 2003 04:43:10 +0100, a wanderer, known to us only as
"JethroUK©" <reply@the.board> warmed at our fire and told this tale:
if you simply dont believe - why do feel the need for a title, 'atheist' -
(as opposed to just not believing) - i'm sure there must be a reason, i'm
just tryna figure out what it is
Because it's the fucking English word for "one who does not believe"
Why do people who believe Jesus was the son of God need to call them
selves Christians? They are words! We use them to describe our
universe. And we have a perfectly good word for people who do not
accept the exitence of deities.
