Turkish gameshow attempts to convert aetheists

[Zambimaru]

Found this story on Digg. Based on the description, theirs no winners on this show. And apparently the creators didn't do their homework on Buddhism since its an atheistic religion. http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/europe/turkey/5729452/Turkish-gameshow-attempts-to-convert-atheists.html

Just leave it to the Turks

Now see, the problem is, there's no prize for remaining unconverted. To be honest, I'd just lie, say I'm converted, and enjoy the free trip. Even if it's a religious site, free hotel + free food + picture taking = vacation. Then I'd just denounce the religion later.....probably over the phone.....from America where I'd be safe....er.

Then they should make a show where Atheists get to convert ardent theists! What could go wrong. surprised

oOOOo, I'd be the perfect candidate! I'm an avowed Atheist with no belief in God, and I'll end up getting a free trip to Tibet w/o lying or faking. They need to do some research and realize that a lot of Buddhists are Atheist too.

Edit: Can I meet the Dalai Lama, can I?  

[Dathu]

xd Both are good places. But I'm going to convert to the Egyptian religion (whatever it's called). Isis, Anubis, I bow to thee, now lets go see the pyramids!!! whee  

[Daffodil the Destroyer]

Kemetic Orthodoxy? XD If I were to covert to a religion, I'd like to choose Asatru. XD

 

[Dathu]

There ya go! I will be Kemetish. And sacrifice many virgins by de-flowering them between the great paws of the sphinx.





But if you become Asatru, where will your holy place be?
