I go to a community college. Right in front of the library is a big Christian booth. It is manned by people in shirts that say "Love Jesus" (these shirts are EVERYWHERE throughout the school), and in front of the booth is a big poster: "Are You A Good Person? Take The Test." I'm...

I was raised catholic and have not been agnostic since my teen years and have been atheist for the past 3-4 years (a total of 11-12 years as a non-chistian).

What are your thoughts on panthiesm? If there is one thing that you can call god or devine then it is reality its self. Atheism is simply the belief that there is no god.
