here's why i'm an atheist
Here's why I'm an atheist:
1. My Atheism liberates me from the errors of belief and belief systems, thereby enhancing the quality of my life, the prospects for my personal prosperity, and giving me Sundays off to pursue my numerous hobbies.
2. Upon becoming an Atheist my disposable income jumped an immediate 15 percent, as I no longer tithed or contributed to endless building funds and missionary drives.
3. Being freed from the nightmare of eternal punishment, and being emancipated from the bribery of eternal bliss, I am now able to concentrate wonderfully on being happy in the here and now.
4. My Atheism has clarified the observed and recorded caprices of human history. It has enlightened my understanding of why the good guys don't always win -- and the bad guys don't always lose. Atheism has solved such philosophic conundrums as why evil exists.
5. Atheism helps me cope with the stresses of life and the inevitability of death.
6. Atheism gives me a practical and effective mechanism by which to develop an overall system of philosophy and ethics for a robust intellectual and personal life.
7. And perhaps most of all, atheism gives me a coherent mechanism by which to make sense of the senseless -- including religions and the religious, with all their accouterments of dogma and ritual, scriptures and strictures, martyrs and murders.
