by its very definition a christian atheist is an oxymoron... which cannot exist.

Like other aspects of human history, there seems to be an ebb and flow to certain things. Perhaps people are starting to "wise up" to organized religion. Not faith, but the religion itself . . .

I must say that you are definitely not the only one I know who calls themselves Christian athiest.  I know quite a few of them quite well.  Some of them are even relatives of mine, well educated and intelligent....maybe too educated and intelligent.  Faith and high IQ seem to often be at odds with each other.

There is a call on Facebook for people to return to Christian churches in USA and Canada. It might be a good thing - rally the Christians so that they have some information and defense here at least. Have been reading back, and am surprised that you haven't mentioned what is happening closer to home, the Via Rail near-episode which is supposedly sponsored by Al Quaeda. Neither are Canadians, and one of the arrested apparently refused a lawyer, saying he wants to be tried according to Qu'ran laws.....

Yes, Egypt's hardline took a whole town away from Christians and put in prisoners into the houses. Us Christians are not at all surprised nor are we expecting to be annihilated what you are talking about is called the grat falling away... There is more to come.

It is sad to see what is going on in the Middle East.
