how to hold on to atheism when things keep getting worse?
#7
RE: how to hold on to atheism when things keep getting worse?
1. Seek professional help if you're seriously suicidal or think you have clinical depression.

2. All atheism is is a lack of faith in gods. That's it. It has no bearing on the amount of good/bad stuff that happens in your life. All it means is that the good and bad stuff doesn't have a divine origin.

3. As Red_Wind intimated, as an adult you have to do your due diligence when it comes to everything in your life. Debit cards, for example, are terrible to use precisely because they're easy to hack and it's a pain to get your account(s) fixed once that happens. For actual purchases, use a credit card. Use your debit card sparingly for cash only (ATM visits), and only do it when absolutely necessary. I'm not going to repeat everything else Red_Wind said, but they're on the right track. Do what you can to mitigate your own risk. Sometimes shitty things just happen due to bad luck, but if you can control some of that there's no reason not to do it.
