What gives a religion the right to claim their fantasy is correct and the rest false?

RE: What gives a religion the right to claim their fantasy is correct and the rest false?
Okay, sorry I misunderstood. No, atheism is a lack of belief in deities. You are just making up extra things to try and make it sound unsavoury. Are you at odds with Santa Clause? And remember, some atheists are undecided. You're strawmaning all of them as strong atheists.

No, I'm not looking forward to "darkness", because I won't exist anymore. It won't be a problem. 1873 didn't bother me, because I wasn't alive. Same thing.

If you were an atheist thinking about god's judgement as real, you wouldn't be an atheist.

I don't care what God expects me to do. Why should I? Because if I don't do it I'll be punished with a worse afterlife? I'm not giving in to blackmail. I'll decide for myself how I should act. If he wants me to be any less moral than I am now, he can get lost. If he gave me a brain and then expects me not to use it, and just do what I'm told, it's his too bad. The times Christians have called me "immoral", it's been regarding something considered immoral within Christianity. Arguments haven't been given for why it's immoral outside of it. Well, they have, but they've been terrible.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
