Nothing to worship. No reason to believe or disbelieve anything in particular outside of not believing in a god.<br /><br />To some extent there is some "evangelizing," with authors such as Dawkins, but I doubt he has reached anyone who wasn't already sitting on the fence. I sometimes want to rush out and deconvert the faithful but compared to the systematic evangelizing that Christians do, the little evangelizing that atheists do is ridiculously small.LadyAtheisthttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12132821431322748921noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211409678921393693.post-90874716870369809772013-04-13T16:43:40.861-04:002013-04-13T16:43:40.861-04:00Thanks for pointing out the borderline thing.

My sentiments exactly regarding science and the worship of science. I was simply repeating yet one of the many ridiculous accusations theists make against us non-believers.Chatpilothttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03550924322118366351noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6211409678921393693.post-31613849587115985732013-04-13T15:47:25.158-04:002013-04-13T15:47:25.158-04:00Chatpilot, I really enjoy your posts.

One, is that "boarder line insane" should be "borderline insane". I've used that phrase myself about theistic beliefs, and it's been justified every single time in my view. The other is that it is impossible to "worship" science. You and I do not worship science, because science is not an object and therefore cannot be worshiped. It is a practice, a methodology, of acquiring knowledge and forming hypotheses of the origins and workings of various phenomena in our world, including ourselves. I feel personally insulted every time I am told that I worship science, as if my reverence for science could be equated with the mindless obedience and acquiescence to an invisible friend which is actually imaginary. I'm not 100% militant, and even when I am, I do not go at it 24/7, but statements like this sure light my fuse to speak!
