You folks raped and pillaged my "How to get to Heaven" thread and I felt it was a cry for help/attention.
But seriously tho, I was an Atheist as a teen solely because I rejected the "wild" stories depicted in the Bible. Didnt see how reincarnation made sense with a growing populations and every belief system I researched, I couldnt accept fully or sounded like b.s. I loved science from an early age and I stayed in that realm of reality, tangeability, and explaination. Ive been a Christian for 6yrs, now but I wanted to know a couple things:
How did you end up atheist?
Will pass along this belief to your kids?
Do you have an authority?
Do you fear death? What are your fears?
What do you believe happens after you die?
Do believe in life beyond earth?
Do you believe in any forces in action beyond human control?
Im not gonna discuss my beliefs, Im not trying to convert nobody (doors always open tho), nor am I looking to be converted. I know atheists believe in different things, I just wanted to hear concepts, ideas, or just gain some insight on how you see the world/life/existance.
do you believe your life serves a purpose?You folks raped and pillaged my "How to get to Heaven" thread and I felt it was a cry for help/attention.

How did you end up atheist?
Because of all the ridiculousness in the bible. My favorite being that an all knowing god LET adam and eve in a garden and told them not to eat a particular fruit knowing full well they would, and then punishing all of humanity for it. Also the hypocrisy of Christianity. Anything good that happens is the work of God. Anything bad that happens.... well.... "You got yourself in this mess". Okay so when I get myself out dont come to me with that "It's the work of God" ********.
Will pass along this belief to your kids?
Yes. I will not tell my kids that there is a magical sky god who you must let into your life so he doesnt punish you for not letting him into your life. Teach your kids right from wrong and you wont have to scare them into being good people.
Do you have an authority?
I do what is best for me. At the end I am all I have. But if you meant is there some moral code I live by it's what you would call common sense. I dont need the promise of an afterlife to do what I feel is right.
Do you fear death? What are your fears?
I do not fear death. I dont have some sort of amazing life to cause me to fear death. If I die I wont miss out on being a billionaire with a harem of international women. I'll continue with a pretty ****** life. I have no reason to fight death
I fear public speaking and horses.
What do you believe happens after you die?
You rot in the ground
Do believe in life beyond earth?
Afterlife? No. Extraterrestrials? Yes
Do you believe in any forces in action beyond human control?
The human ear can only pick up sounds in between certain frequencies. Even our eyes have colors that we can't see. There are great forces in nature that I will never understand and I hold those things in high regard.
do you believe your life serves a purpose?
depends on what you define as an endScience says the universe began (expansion point). Do you think it has an end?
Do you believe in energy transferance?
If so, to what extent?
What do you think about the law of attractions? Is their power in speech (beyond just being audible)?
What are your thoughts on dark matter and dark energy?
Too many coincidences within the universe for there not to be a higher power. The probability of life spontaneously in this solar system or any without any type of galactal intervention is so large that numbers cannot compute. I dont believe in religion but i believe in spirtuality which is a proven science.
GOD IS THE GREATEST SCIENTIST OF ALL TIME
Exactly.. God of the Gaps.Based on what? Why do we resort to the cop out of a higher power when it's something we can't explain? Why can't it be that coincidences are just that...coincidences?Too many coincidences within the universe for there not to be a higher power.

this is trueThe probability of life spontaneously in this solar system or any without any type of galactal intervention is so large that numbers cannot compute.
Nah.isnt god a spirit and isnt spirit(inner feeling) our conscience?
so doesnt that mean
god = good conscience
devil = evil conscience
we all have a "god" and "devil" within us, its easily shown through a persons everyday actions
religion is just mind control using a theorized testimony called the bible
Good stuffSon this is the biggest bullcrap I've ever heard, God is literally the worst scientist ever if he really created us.
9.24 mark
Nah.
By most of these ppl's definitions and descriptions GOD is an alien.
I've had enough of this back and forth for now. I think the main problem is that believers aren't really "believers" at all. They preach this and that, believe this and that, but have never read the bible, never actually lived by the rules and laws of the bible, and don't know the history behind its conception, it's relation to other religions, it's relation to previous religious and non religious texts and its methods of "spreading" as a common belief.
