Atheists, tell me, a Roman Catholic: why should I become an atheist?

Welcome to the forum Keith

I'd just like to emphasise the distinctions between religion, theism/atheism and gods. As in they're not even close to being the same thing, though there is a degree of overlap. Proving the existence of a god, for instance, has no bearing on any religion; they could all still be wrong.

And even if they are right, they can still be morally bankrupt. God can be an arsehole. If Christianity is to be believed for example, that's exactly what he is. The idea that God has to be good is a massive unfounded assumption.
