More than 75% of humanity accepts IMHOs view. Why do you want him to change and adopt a minority view?

I can't speak for anyone else, but I don't want anyone to change their belief system. I believe what I feel to be right; I expect most people do so. It's not my job to change anyone else's mind, they should decide for themselves.

My only dispute is the difference between fact and belief.

[Edit:]Speaking of facts, can you support your statement of 75% with a broad poll containing multiple countries, specifically China? Possibly the continent of Africa? I could be wrong, but I'm pretty sure most people who believe in a Christian-esque God as described in the Bible live in the Americas and Europe, and the last poll I saw had a significantly lower showing than that as actually describing themselves as people of faith.

Wow. And all I said was: "More than 75% of humanity accepts IMHOs view."

You made a claim, I asked for reference. That's it. I didn't insult you, or demand anything. It's a simple question, I'm just curious where you got 'more than 75% of humanity' from, no more and no less.

Coincidence did not get me from where I've been to where I am now.




And why do atheists always have to make it known to everyone that they are atheists?
