THE GOD DISEASE

It's not fair to crticize theists because it was not their fault they were brainwashed.
But it's certainly OK when normal people explain why brainwashing is wrong, blowing yourself up is wrong, denying basic scientific facts is wrong, magical deities are wrong, magical resurrections and a magical life after death is wrong.
A basic fact of reality: There never has been and never will be a miracle, aka magical event. There is no magic in the universe.
Another problem with the god fantasy is it's not necessary.
If you look at the universe and study the universe, what you find is that there is no evidence that we need anything other than the laws of physics and the other laws of science to explain everything we see. There's absolutely no evidence that we need any supernatural hand of god. -- Lawrence Krauss, Physicist

"convert religious people to atheism"

Throwing out the magical god fantasy is not converting to something.
It's called "Growing up, educating yourself, facing facts, and
accepting reality."

If everyone was a normal person the word "atheist" would not be
necessary because nobody would be infected with theism. Theism is
just a disease, a mental illness. Unfortunately for many people there
is no cure.

Why are some people able to recover from the theism disease? It's
because they still have two things the brainwashers tried to destroy.
They have curiosity and the ability to think.

What's the greatest threat to theism? Science education, especially if
the science teacher is competent. The more people understand science
the more likely they will realize a magical being's magical powers
were never necessary for anything.

The brainwashers understand this threat and this is why religious
people are constantly trying to dumb down science education. For
example the Islamic State does not allow science education in the cities
they control, and in America there is a never ending Christian war
against the teaching of evolution.

Steven Weinberg, Nobel Laureate in Physics, said about Muslims who
wanted to prevent the teaching of science in universities, "They felt
that science would be corrosive to religious beliefs and they were
worried about it. Dammit I think they were right. It is corrosive to
religious belief. And it's a good thing too."
