True or False: Some people will never attain the spiritual maturity required to be an atheist?

They are doomed to be enslaved by religionist lies their entire lives?





It is difficult for me to accept that this might be true - while there is life, there is hope - but what is your experience?True or False: Some people will never attain the spiritual maturity required to be an atheist?
True





It is my experience that very few people even recognize that religion and Spirituality are not just different degrees of the same thing.True or False: Some people will never attain the spiritual maturity required to be an atheist?
Dunno. Some people are just stubborn with their beliefs or belief that there is something greater out there. Some just don't want to even bother with the possibility that there might be no real meaning. I don't think that it's really maturity, just whether they want to think about it or not, or whether they are open minded to the possibility of being wrong about something they dedicate a portion of their life to.
For me it is true. Hopefully I will never ';attain the spiritual maturity required to be an atheist.'; It sounds to me like your using the phrase ';spiritual maturity '; when you really mean 'self delusion'.





True, I will ';never attain the 'self delusion' required to be an atheist';. I will always have faith. I will always have God.





Good luck with your atheism, we all need something to believe in.
This is the fallacy of the double question.





It takes spiritual maturity to be an atheist


Some people will never have it





So better to be logically enslaved then illogically depraved.
Some kids like to close their eyes to avoid seeing the truth. Fundies like to bury their gaze in their bibles. Ignorance is their real salvation.
Denial and pat reasons that retard the mind from questions that need to be asked will always keep some from advancing .True.
True. Some people like being a Christian, so no matter what, they'll stay one. But that really doesn't have anything to do with maturity.
True.
You makes such wonderful sense.





Not.
It doesn't take spiritual maturity to become an atheist, only ignorance of the Bible. I would say that if honest answers were given, most atheist have never read the Bible or have a clue what Christians believe.
