A lot of people seem to see the need to oppose God idea of belief, because of the pressure of society to submit to some representative of God.
It dictates on how people "act".
It's not about any pressure being felt. It's about being told by others that you must submit to their beliefs. How would you feel if I insisted that you behave as if no god existed?
P.S. No god exists.
Ok, but this is exactly what I'm saying. You don't like being told "you must believe in this and follow this path or follow this and that or do this and that and don't do this and that". The core of the issue is you hate the notion of dictating on what to do.
But if there is no God, you have everyone doing that anyways, You have people making laws, you have society making morals, which differs society to society, and then you have your own confused self that just picks from here and there but mostly finds it's self agreeing to the people he feels identified with the most (atheists). But if there is a God, then who is more worthy to be listened and obeyed and followed and who more worthy of guiding to the truth then the wise knowing creator?
