A person doesnt become an atheist because they are smarter than a theist.
An atheist is like a thief. A thief NEVER runs into a policeman, but rather continues to run away from them, just like an atheist never runs into God but runs away from him.
At the end of the day, all ATHEISTS have faith just like THEISTS, an atheist just like a theist has never died, come back to tell what happens.
The reality, no one knows for fact, the theist believes (has faith) that an afterlife exists, the atheist believes (faith) that nothing exists. Its really as simple as that.
For people that dont believe that want hard proof evidence of God arent gonna get it. God has constructed this so we have free will. For God, there is nothing better than believing in him via free will when we could easily turn our backs on him.
Remember Jesus said to his disiples, "You believe me because you have seen me, blessed are those who have not seen yet believed".

Cliff notes:
Lots of the Bible is a forgery.
(if you didn't know that already, it would be surprising, but just wanted to see the opinions of some of our nutjobs at covers on this)
The bestest made up part of the Bible is the 3 wise men saw a star and came a-calling. Now let's think this one through for a couple of minutes. This child born in swaddling clothes is The Man. The One.
Question: Don't you think someone would have maybe followed this kid around and wrote down what He had to say and when? When He had his first poop even?
A person doesnt become an theist because they are smarter than a atheist - In terms of intellect - agree.
A theist is like a thief. A thief NEVER runs into a policeman, but rather continues to run away from them, just like a theist never runs into science but runs away from it. Can science tell me what is right or wrong?
At the end of the day, all THEISTS have faith unlike ATHEISTS, a theist just like an atheist has never died, come back to tell what happens. So, you have died, come back to tell us for a FACT there is nothing there?

ClubDirt - just a passing comment on your children in bible school question. have read the bible, though didnt join a christian community school to study its doctrine, so my comment is just that, passing.
the bibles claim is to be the divine word of god, so its accounts are told by those who witness it to be based on reality. so the question would be, would you change the channel if your child was viewing a sensitive news broadcast or program.
would imagine that the central stories feature with the main focus on the message of jesus. with all youth students learning the word of god from a childrens bible, where sensative topics are danced around. as one would in sheltering their young from selected media or hollywood releases.
though, children have the most vivid imagination that runs away with them, so one could admire the questions they would invent.
its a great question you put to the board, on the basis that a childs faith in god would be greater than what any adult could.
I was simply illustrating a point.
A position in a debate is not strong when you can simply exchange sides by switching words and the meaning still is the same and makes sense.
