10 Things atheists and Christians should agree on, but won't because the most opinionated people on both sides of the issue tend to be close minded dicks.
Chance of Christians and Atheists agreeing on 10 things they should agree on=Chance of Jews and Muslims living in peace within the middle east. Too many people are dicks for either to happen.

Chaos isn’t a pit. Chaos is a ladder. Many who try to climb it fail, and never get to try again. The fall breaks them. And some are given a chance to climb, but refuse. They cling to the realm, or love, or the gods…illusions. Only the ladder is real. The climb is all there is, but they’ll never know this. Not until it’s too late.

After much research and Wikipeditions, I have compiled the definitive list:
1. An off topic discussion on Dakka will lead to an argument between the atheists & Christians, and/or liberals vs conservatives.
2. Carpets.*
3. Strawberry jam is best made from strawberries.
4. The Pope** has fewer legs than a healthy spider.
5. The Star War prequel trilogy sucked.
6. Cilit Bang! and the stain is gone. (If only Clinton had had known sooner.)
7. Mary was indeed quite contrary, though how she made the garden grow is still hotly debated.
8. The Moon landing was faked. The Moon would not have been able to generate sufficient thrust to get back into orbit once it had landed.
9. Fidel Castro bought his beard and joke cigars from Acme Inc. the same company that supplies Wily Coyote. (Why doesn't he just order a tin of dog food and a can opener?***)
10. Zombie Apocolypse
* The controversial Church of the Impeccable Seven Day Parquet would disagree, but then they always do.
** Obviously with the exception of Pope Arachnid III
***Cyote not Castro

Heres a question on religion.
If God/Gods are supreme being why does he need us to worship him/It?
If God is a supreme being I don't think he would need people to worshiping him/It
Surely a God is not need of such desires. Why would He?
If thier really is a god out there none of us have a true understanding of what He/It is.
Alot of people have diffrent portrale of God/Gods so its a bit naive to think one beleif is true and 100% accurate.

God doesn't need people to believe in him in anything outside of Pratchett
However because the abrahamic god is benevolent he wants those that are worthy to achieve paradise and thus informed people about this paradise and how to get in much like how teachers nowadays teach you how to pass exams rather than the subject.

So what your saying is if a good person that doesn't embrace that faith, then goes to hell for not being inlightened and therfore not worthy?
That doesn't sound like a supreme being to me.

In The Inferno Dante assigns a place for the pre Christian "good" that is, from a shakey memory, a citadel within Hell and they are not punished. As they lived before Christ, they cannot be said to have gone astray. The shade of Virgil, Dante's guide, resides there.
Also there is Limbo for the babies that died unbaptised which is hard to accept these days.
