Magoogirl04: was wondering y you put yourself in the Christian
category if you're an atheist, just curious
Magoogirl04: ok, how about yourself??
Atheist142: well, it's one of my interests, and it definately spurs good
conversation. :-) I'm peachy, thank you.
Magoogirl04: lol
Magoogirl04: well that's good
Magoogirl04: glad to hear it
Magoogirl04: so Christianity is an interest for you?
Magoogirl04: becuz you're an atheist?
Magoogirl04: right?
Atheist142: mostly, yes
Magoogirl04: what do you mean by "mostly"??
Atheist142: well, I think all religions are interesting from a historical
viewpoint--I'm kind of a history nut
Magoogirl04: ahh
Magoogirl04: gotcha
Magoogirl04: so, what makes you an atheist?
Atheist142: I don't believe in a god/dess.
Magoogirl04: lol
Magoogirl04: I KNOW
Magoogirl04: I was asking why..?
Magoogirl04: hehe
Atheist142: why be a theist?
Magoogirl04: ya, atheist
Atheist142: that question hasn't been answered for me, so I am an
atheist. I have no logical reason to believe in a god
Magoogirl04: oic
Atheist142: why do you ask?
Magoogirl04: just curious as to why you are what you are and believe
what you do
Atheist142: cool cool :-)
Atheist142: What are you, in respect to religion?
Magoogirl04: I'm a nondenominational Christian
Atheist142: errrk, computer is being evil and disconnected me. Sorry.
Magoogirl04: that's ok
Magoogirl04: I understand
Magoogirl04: did you get what I said??
Atheist142: yes. nondenominational, good choice :-)
Magoogirl04: thanx, y do you say that?
Atheist142: well, I think much of the squabbling between Christians is
unneccessary
Magoogirl04: I totally agree!!!!!!!!!!!
Magoogirl04: it makes me upset
Magoogirl04: it's not about religion
Magoogirl04: it's about a relationship with God
Atheist142: they could be doing something nice like feeding the
hungry, sheltering the poor, etc. but instead they're agruing about
whether the Pill should be accepted or not... blah
Magoogirl04: yes, I am sorry that's how you see us
Magoogirl04: or how anybody does
Magoogirl04: it makes me so sad
Atheist142: Life goes on... :-)
Magoogirl04: yes, and it makes me sad nevertheless
Atheist142: now if they could only see this...
Magoogirl04: see what?
Atheist142: well, if people could understand how pointless the
bickering is, a lot more could get done, do you agree?
Magoogirl04: yes, most definitley
Magoogirl04: is that why you aren't a Christian??
Magoogirl04: because of how they act?
Magoogirl04: ....it's a good reason
Magoogirl04: not to be
Atheist142: No, it's because I don't see any proof of the Christian god
Magoogirl04: ahh
Magoogirl04: you look for proof in everything?
Atheist142: yeah, I was always that annoying kid asking "why" in the
classroom
Magoogirl04: ah
Magoogirl04: I see
Atheist142: Sorry again. Disconnected. :-\
Magoogirl04: :o)
Magoogirl04: that's ok
Magoogirl04: I understand
Magoogirl04: my computer is the same way
Magoogirl04: did you get what I last put?
Atheist142: "ah, I see"?
Magoogirl04: ah, that wasn't the last thing I put
Atheist142: what was it?
Magoogirl04: Magoogirl04: tell me, are you a "happy" person?
Atheist142: most of the time, yep
Magoogirl04: really?
Atheist142: yes, why?
Magoogirl04: it isn't just a skin deep happiness?
Magoogirl04: you are truely happy?
Magoogirl04: I'm just curious
Atheist142: why would it be "skin deep"?
Magoogirl04: I don't know
Magoogirl04: you could be really sad inside
Magoogirl04: and happy on the outside, as in not letting other people
on that you are really sad
Atheist142: I am usually happy, and sometimes depressed, but most of
the time happy. From what I know most people are the same.
Magoogirl04: ah
Magoogirl04: what do you do when you are depressed?
Atheist142: I talk to my friends, write a lot of bad poetry :-P and listen
to a lot of sad music.
Magoogirl04 signed on at 10:53:54 PM.
Magoogirl04: and that makes you happy again?
Atheist142: the talking to my friends part. It helps get all of the
problems that caused the depression to be unraveled and fixed.
Magoogirl04: ahh
Magoogirl04: but are they truely fixed?
Atheist142: Yeah.
Magoogirl04: don't they still weigh you down?
Magoogirl04: yeah?
Atheist142: No, they don't weigh me down and they are fixed. After
me and my friends work out a problem and apologize, we are good
again and I am happy.
Atheist142: I lead a simple life. :-)
Magoogirl04: lol
Magoogirl04: I find a joy in everyday, and I live a complicated life, and
couldn't be happier because of it
Atheist142: that's great :-)
Magoogirl04: thanx
Magoogirl04: I agree
Atheist142: AAH! I swear if that happens again my computer's going
out the window!
Atheist142: :-)
Magoogirl04: lol
Magoogirl04: anyways...
Magoogirl04: I have an unbelievable peace and joy deep inside me
because of the relationship I have with Jesus
Atheist142: that's really good :-)
Magoogirl04: ya,
Magoogirl04: he is what gets me up in the morning and get through the
day
Atheist142: I'm glad you have such a great relationship.
Magoogirl04: thanx
Magoogirl04: me 2
Magoogirl04: I don't think anything else is worth living for
Magoogirl04: course that is my opinion
Atheist142: Yeah, there are a few other things that keep me goin, but
it's nice to have that relationship, I'm assuming.
Magoogirl04: yes, it is
Atheist142: Well, It's good that you're happy :-)
Magoogirl04: it's wonderful
Magoogirl04: thanx
Atheist142: Sorry if I'm not really the conversationalist tonight...
Atheist142: tired tired
Magoogirl04: that's alright
Magoogirl04: you changed your info
Magoogirl04: lol
Atheist142: Yes, I had left it up from a few days ago and forgot to
change it.
Magoogirl04: ahh
Magoogirl04: well, it has been an interesting conversation, but I have
to go, I'll ttyl ok?
