Why is atheism better than christianity? There are many obvious reasons, but I'd like to point out the one that's being frequently omitted. Money. And Time. But time is money, so I guess I'm not making any sense. Let's get to the point.

Let's say you're an average christian, go to church every Sunday, donate some money, leave and pray every day before sleep. Here's what you waste:

1) an average mass (and getting to it) takes about an hour and a half; if you go to church for 60 years straight, you lose 52*1,5*60 = 4680 hours. That's more than half a year you could spend banging chicks in Hawaii or beating up midgets in some third world country.

2) an average prayer takes five minutes; again, if you do that for 60 years, you lose 365*5*60/60 = 1825 hours. This is more than two months you could use to shoot hundreds of ferrets for fur. Or just for fun, it doesn't really make any difference.

3) at an average mass one leaves about $1,50 (that's a rough guess, but whatever); the calculations are therefore the same as in point one and you practically throw away 4680 dollars' worth of money. Don't even get me started on what you might do with that.

I might have pointed out some more advantages, but I don't want to. Bye.
