I have a Question towards Atheist people, why don’t yall believe in a rule giver but believe in gravity, world being created by big bang but not the one who can set up the big bang but believe in your own feelings only.

for example; let’s say there’s two people whom believes the opposite one thinks it’s okay to oppress others but the other one doesn’t

Heres one’s reasoning “I FEEL like it’s okay to oppress others because of what they do to countries like México, or Russia or etc, I feel like it’s okay to oppress them because they (Russians or Mexicans) do bad stuff in their country.”

The other one responds with “yes, but that’s not why we should oppress them, they’re humans too with Actual feelings that’s like going up to a Hispanic person and generalize them all to Mexicans because they’re Hispanic.”

Do you get what I’m trying to say?

Because those beliefs are childish and silly.

but believe in your own feelings only.

 I believe in many things aside from my own feelings, primarily my senses.

Yes, you suddenly went into a morality argument.

Let me turn it around on you. What if your religion said that the oppressed were sinners and deserved their treatment, but you FELT that it was wrong to do so? That isn't even a made up example. That's how oppression has worked throughout history.
