Greg K replied to Chris H's discussion 'The near death experience argument.'"Well said, I remember Dawkins in "The God Delusion" made a similar comparison to Ketamine.

Not surprising to me! :-)

- About Me:
- I would rather grow up than be born again:)
- Age
- 19-24
- Why are you here?
- Without first putting my faith in doubt and considering the rationality of my beliefs, I went to a Christian college where I am very much alone by being an atheist. I came to this site to confide in others and be surrounded by other freethinkers who also believe religion is a weakness and not a strength.
- The religion you left
- Christian
- Why you left your religion.
- I had a time several years ago where I was doubting Christianity. I couldn't explain away the inconsistencies and problems I found, but I also couldn't make the leap to leave Christianity yet. I eventually made the transition by pretending I had no beliefs and doubting everything. I decided I would believe whatever I could rationalize, and I never could rationalize any faith without evidence and the Christian beliefs I previously held. Long story short, I became a deist for awhile. With the help of Dawkins and others, I eventually became an atheist as I understand that the existence of god is not even a rational or necessary belief.
