I see a lot of gems in religions like "Be compassionate and forgiving as much as you can". But those ideals are painful and they seem to me as useless or unprofitable for the most part.
So, basically, I dislike idea of God, because I wish to fully "dive" in to the comfortable and pleasant life.
Could others share their main reason for disliking the idea of Gods existence???
Good you are honest on why you don't want believe in God. Atheists/Agnostics who actually admit this are rare.
Quote:For the invisible things of him, from the creation of the world, are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made; his eternal power also, and divinity: so that they are inexcusable.Romans 1:20
People claim to reject God’s existence because it is “not scientific” or “because there is no proof.” The true reason is that once they admit that there is a God, they also must realize that they are responsible to God and in need of forgiveness from Him (Romans 3:23, 6:23). If God exists, then we are accountable to Him for our actions. If God does not exist, then we can do whatever we want without having to worry about God judging us. That is why many of those who deny the existence of God cling strongly to the theory of naturalistic evolution—it gives them an alternative to believing in a Creator God. God exists and ultimately everyone knows that He exists. "The Creator is clearly seen," Paul explained to the Romans 1:20. Yet despite all their intelligence and scientific skills, the Gentiles refused to acknowledge the Creator. The problem was not their inability to see Him but their rebellious hearts, which "suppressed the truth in unrighteousness" Romans 1:18. The very fact that some attempt so aggressively to disprove His existence is in fact an argument for His existence. https://gotquestions.org/Does-God-exist.html(Allows quotation as long as linked)
