text: why do atheists look down their noses at believers...? when they are equally under the spell of belief? how is nothingness any more probable than eternal life? how is the seven day theory any less believable than the big bang, or the string theory? basically, how can those of one belief be filled with so much contempt for those that have another belief? (and don't say because they do the same thing- that is not a defence). words of wisdom(?) from an agnostic. because they see religion as a crutch for weak people who know nothing about history.
