One Moral Dilemma of Atheists...
Most organized religions push the tenet of "save everyone whether they want to be saved or not". So I ask what position should an atheist take when lets say villagers in Indonesia faced with the imminent eruption of a nearby volcano (Mt. Merapi) attempt to save themselves with burning incense and floating offerings to the "angry Merapi". I would react violently to being bodily wrestled to Sunday School, so should I insist on a forced relocation of such "believers" for their (obvious to me) own good?

Ha! You go Michele! I thought for an instance that Suzy was having a moment of atheism. I have to admit I was a little puzzled.

No, that takes away accountability..doesn't it? One of the basic principles The Church is founded on. Right?
ps. I too thought this was Suzy thinking outside the box. I'm a tad disappointed. :)
