“I am an atheist...I do not believe in any supernatural being,
including the god of the bible. I don’t believe in any god or goddess
that has ever been worshipped by a human being...the bible doesn’t
make sense. The bible is a book written approximately two thousand years
ago by uneducated, superstitious men who knew nothing about physics or science.
They didn’t understand how the world works, so they made up stories
to help them feel less afraid...The fact that the God of the bible is okay
with people owning slaves is proof that the bible wasn’t written by
a god: it was written by men who owned slaves. If god truly wrote (or at
least inspired men to write) the bible, don’t you think he would have
proclaimed in a deep god-like voice, “Slavery is wrong and I will
not tolerate it any longer.”? It seems logical that a loving god wouldn’t
want any of his people to be enslaved by others. I realize I am not going
to change anyone’s beliefs with just one example, but I invite you
to do some research of your own. That’s how I came to believe the
things I believe and don’t believe; by reading and thinking for myself.
Atheists are not evil, devil-worshipping pedophile criminals. For the most
part, atheists are hard-working, patriotic, law-abiding citizens. We pay
our taxes, love our families, and worry about the price of gas. We respect
the rights of others and we try to love our neighbors. I hope you will do
the same.”
