I honestly don't believe I have it in me to become a christian again, too many logical fallacies, inconsistencies and contradictions. But I do believe there may be someone/something up there that started all this off.
Does atheism fall under that or is there another name for it? (For the record I don't believe this being is still involved with us or is probably just watching on a cinema screen type of thing eating popcorn)
As an atheist, I do not acknowledge a creator in any way, shape or form. No intelligent design, just physics. Anything else and I am not an atheist.
Personally, I do not accept any "first cause".
You make people miserable and there's nothing they can do about it, just like god.
