Sam Manning commented on Sam Manning's blog post 'Frustrated arguing with Catholics'"really that is interesting Johan I might have to bring that up I think it is dumb because only Catholics can be called into "saint" hood yet other great leaders such as Ghandi aren't as special according to the Catholics"
Steve M commented on Sam Manning's blog post 'Frustrated arguing with Catholics'"Facts will get you no where when going up against the"Neener Neener Neener I CAN"T HEAR YOU" line of logic that they are using. It trumps all fact. I used to be Catholic and my whole family is still Catholic…"
Kenneth Montville D.D. commented on Sam Manning's blog post 'Frustrated arguing with Catholics'"They sound more like evangelical Protestants than Catholics.

Dustin commented on Sam Manning's blog post 'Frustrated arguing with Catholics'"If they made that remark about science those people are completely lost to reality. Any 'evidence' you put forth regarding the molestations and rape will be disregarded.

Yesterday my friend on Facebook posted something about Jon Paul the Great being beatified and I couldn't help but point out how much child molesting that had gone on during the "Great's" reign.

I know I am an atheist because I do not believe in god however I was pushed and shoved into this religious retreat called Kairos at my school. One of my goals is to learn more about all religions so that I can argue with a better understanding of religions. I was talking to the pastoral director and apparently my want to go out and gain knowledge somehow makes me agnostic now so what am I? Thanks

Hi Sam,
I am a moderator here on think atheist. I have temporarily closed your recent thread titled "So confused between agnostic and atheist values." There is nothing wrong with the content, but we have many many discussions on this site dealing with the distinction between atheism and agnosticism already.
- if you'd simply like to learn more about agnosticism vs. atheism, please search out and use existing threads on the subject, or I can point some out for you if you're having difficulty finding them, or
- if you'd like to get feedback on your specific experience with that pastoral director can you please modify the title so that we don't start up yet another thread debating the definitions of agnosticism and atheist? Perhaps something like "Confused: Labelled as 'agnostic' by a Pastoral Director" (just a suggestion).
Apologies for any inconvenience; we are just trying to keep the site organized. If anything is unclear, feel free to send me a message.
Thanks
kris
