You ended this with a question mark but worded it as a statement. Confusing. Anyways the fact that it's an atheist/agnostic site implies that religion has had some, whether minor or major, effect on the lives of everyone here. It's what most all of us have in common so it makes sense the topic would be discussed.

So start a thread with a different topic

I think you make a good point; we should not be defined by what we are not (believers in faith), but by what we are (critical thinkers etc.). I like it

Athiest don't believe in god,agnostics are unsure about god.Both are defined by their link to god.,,so not really a surprsie there is alot of talk about god,

If you define yourself by your beliefs about god then you are sure to be discussing it quite a bit. Atheist and agnostics love talking about god.

As an Atheist , I"m fascinated by religion. I could talk about it all day.
That reminds me. Since my prostate operation , concerning sex. All I can do is talk about that also.

Not ironic to me. Lack of religion or belief in God is the ONE thing we have in common.

Religion is ubiquitous.

well, I do say that a lot of atheists are obsessed with bitching about religion which makes them a bit obsessed. then again the site is called agnostic.com

It is nice to discuss the flaws of religion as I have experienced them with others who have had similar experiences. It is nice that others have recognized and made decisions of like kind because of common experiences.It provides some relief to know that your decision was not unique.

I think I would like to see an official breakdown of all posts first before I were to agree or disagree. I suspect it's probably about half and half, but I'm not really in the mood to categorize every post to get a mathematical percentage.

That being said, even if we were to talk about politics... the greatest threat to the U.S. politically? Evangelicals. Alabama is set to elect a pedophile to the Senate today.

Religion is like yeast in bread... it's everywhere and there's no getting around it.

I don't think so. It's what we are all surrounded with on a daily basis.
