I said to myself I would never submit videos on this topic, in the end I was prompted to submit my opinions after watching several frustrating posts by religous people on the subject of atheism.

I find religous people can be characterised by their lack of questioning of their faith, any questions are usually limited to readings and interpretations of their faith rather than of the faith itself.

This is very dissapointing, most people ask more questions when buying a used car than when deciding whether or not they should follow a religous belief. To most believers religion is an area that is outside the normal questioning that adults use for other subjects.
