Why should I be an atheist?

Atheists...
I'm a christian currently. I'm having doubts. Convince me why I should be an atheist.

 

Convince yourself.

 

I don't think many atheists would bother trying to "convert" you.

 

Not unless you consider belittlement and harassment an attempt to convert.


OP, have you ever looked into Christian Deism?

 

You know when you can call yourself an atheist. It is not something you strive to become by choice but a term you can apply on yourself when you have determined what you believe about God(s). Just as you ideally don't become religious because you want to be religious but rather because you come to the conclusion you share those beliefs. From my perspective you are never a believer or an atheist in the first place, they remain nothing more than defining terms to me. It's how you get to that label or term and why you apply it on yourself that would define you as an atheist, christian, agnost, pagan, etc. And preferably.., since these are your own thoughts and beliefs you should convince yourself. Not for the sake of getting rid of a label like christian or be able to righteously call yourself an atheist but because your personal convictions make you one. Some christians (and atheists too mind you) have doubts all their life by the way

 

because that's what you believe. or it's not, and you shouldn't be one.

 

Where's maelstrom when you need him lol

 

They serve amazing godless cookies at the atheist conversion convention.

 

Imaginary man in the sky watching everything you do.
A man who hears voices is strung up and somehow that absolves you of some sort of imaginary wrong-doing called "sin".
Talking snakes. Zombies.
gays are bad?!
Against women's rights

 

Well, you'll get to have a moment's privacy when having sex. I don't like to play the exhibitionist all the time.

 

"GOD"'s existence is questionable. Proof besides contradictions in the book?

 

No. It's not my place to try and convert you. Go with what you truly want to believe in. If you don't believe in God, be an atheist. If you do believe in God, then do that.

 

EVERYTHING is questionable.

Why should you be anything?

Up to you dude ....

 

Ever get the feeling this was a troll thread that backfired by getting reasonable posts.

 

It frees up time on Sundays?

 

Sorry, it made me laugh.

 

May you should continue to work on your doubts. Could be a lot of fun.

 

Atheist vs. theist; one “believes” in god the other doesn’t “believe” in god, one is just as silly as the other since they’re both “beliefs”, analyze a belief…nothing more than a judgment based on a like or dislike of a particular human mind, approximately 7 billion human minds occupy the planet each with a different like/dislike dependent on the programing of the particular mind; when, where, who and what they were exposed to, move beyond the programing, truth is not relative since it has nothing to do with beliefs, the truth for me is the truth for you, is the truth for everyone.

 

Gotta love this guys "logic",
NO corn = corn...
You have one puckering asshole filled to bursting with "corn" and another asshole containing NO "corn".

Now follow me on this here; because we referenced "corn" with both assholes, they are both equally corny.

That is what you call "logic", completely void of comprehension and reason. Comprehending and reasoning shit is so fucking tired anyway. Likes and dislikes are just a matter of taste really, there's no reasoning anywhere. Just a fresh new mookie stink on the bathroom floor to brighten your day. Equally corny but somehow containing no corn!
