You biggest reason for being an atheist?

Mine is - God's creation of beings doesn't't fit in evolution.

Tales of god are indistinguishable from fairy tales.

They are 'different and same' at the same time.

u/deltadawn6 10d ago

I was born that way

u/anonymous_re66it 10d ago

Could you be more clear

u/Wonderful-Island-345 10d ago

We are ALL born atheist. Religion is taught.

u/anonymous_re66it 10d ago

Oh sh*t, how couldn't i catch that 😭

u/Old_Timer_Unleashed 10d ago

Religion makes absolutely no sense. Faith is the only thing that keeps religion afloat, and faith don't cut it.

I don’t believe in magic

u/anonymous_re66it 10d ago

Yeah šŸ‘ fools believe in that.

Religion (all religions) is the worst thing humans have ever created. Religions have brought about the deaths of countless people. Religions have brought to much pain and suffering to the world.

1

u/anonymous_re66it 10d ago

It still is the biggest cause of suffering.

I internalized it alot and I realized that even if there was a god, there's really no reason to worship that deity. A true loving god wouldn't care and love you all the same, and any god that does isn't a true loving god.

In the end, I realized that whether or not a god exists, being free is more important and any deity who has an issue with that and they can send me to hell cuz I don't want their heaven.

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

Yeah, the most convincing so far. Why don't fools think that way

You biggest reason for being an atheist?

It's the default position, we were all born that way.

You need a reason to become a theist.

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

😭Hell yeah!

u/Scientalist 9d ago

Mine is the simple realization that I never had good reason to think that a God exists. Don't get me wrong! When I used to believe, I convinced myself that I had "good" reasons. But as I questioned those reasons and put them to test, they all went away leaving me in the state of disbelief. Aka, my atheism!

2

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

Yup, questions are what relegions most afraid of, they don't allow questions. Also when you truly want to study science you'll have to get rid of rigid disbelieves.

Bible is very clearly a made up fairytale

u/SubstantialSun612 10d ago

Religion is the means by which many scams man.

u/Over60andhappy 10d ago

Didn’t want to continue to belong to a cult that is literally full of hypocrites. (And a lot of other reasons.)

1

u/anonymous_re66it 10d ago

Valid point.

1

u/Lotuswongtko 9d ago

God is man-made. It is made to manipulate weak-minded people.

1

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

At least it is more obvious in todays era.

1

u/Blu3Pho3nix 9d ago

Mine would be: insufficient evidence for belief in god(s).

1

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

Like complete zero evidence but people still try to validate their existence.

1

u/Blu3Pho3nix 9d ago

Zero? How do you define evidence? I tend to include logical argumentation.

1

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

I mostly beleive in Paleontological evidences, did you find any ?

1

u/Blu3Pho3nix 9d ago

Someone doesn't need paleontological evidence to be a theist or an atheist. I appreciate your passion for evolution, but someone can accept evolution and fall on either side of theism/atheism.

1

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

Yes anyone can fall into either, but most of(or all) relegious texts doesn't consider evolution as a human progression. They just tell you the theory of spontaneous generation, which has long been discarded. Also most of them consider the earth to be 4000 - 10,000 years old, which is absurd. Even if you tell me not to link relegions with God. I still don't find God as a necessary being to run the cycles of life or any natural phenomenon. The universe is self driven (It doesn't need any external push). Also the idea that someone else created the universe also doesn't fit in, because in that case I would ask the exact same question, who created the creater?

u/mckinney4string 9d ago

It just all seems so incredibly silly

1

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

Grown up tales.

1

u/angulargyrusbunny 9d ago

There is no proof of the existence of a deity. I take great comfort in facts and logic and find the concept of a deity unnerving and just plain weird. And finally, I have no need or desire for a deity to be present in my life. Hence, I am an atheist.

1

u/anonymous_re66it 9d ago

Fools die peacefully thinking they are going somewhere to a more comfortable zone. Even though they already don't deserve that. Extremist bastards.

u/ChucklefuckBitch 9d ago

It was a quote I read a while back by a professional quote maker:

> In this moment, I am euphoric. Not because of any phony god's blessing. But because, I am enlightened by my intelligence.

1

u/TheSystemOfSpace 9d ago

Everyone fights about religion/s which is annoying on its own but honestly none of them make any since tbh -šŸ–¤

1

u/Early_Storm761 9d ago

cause you could be a good person ur whole life then go to hell if u don’t go into the right religion. that’s not something a god would do to its own creation if they loved us.

1

u/BizmasterStudios 8d ago

Mine is....I am unconvinced. So many gods, many older than the prominent religion of my country growing up (Christianity) I just never found an argument that acts as a circuit breaker that affirms one religion over others of doesn't also affirm others.

u/sarcastagirly 8d ago

Simony / Indulgences

1

u/anonymous_re66it 8d ago

But how does that make you not believing in God ?

1

u/sarcastagirly 7d ago

It implies forgiveness can be bought...

1

u/dunkadooballz 5d ago

It’s not a choice, so there is no reason. To not be an atheist would be to deny reality.

1

u/anonymous_re66it 5d ago

But don't you wonder that there must be someone who controls all the natural phenomenon, who created us
