What is your reason for being an atheist?
#14
RE: What is your reason for being an atheist?
I like to believe that I have some sense of agency or autonomy in the grand scheme of things. Numerous verses in the bible describe a system in which sinners are pre-destined to exist and suffer at the hands of God for an eternity. I'd much rather apply value to my own actions and life instead of having my worth defined by a force like God. Also I cannot condone the behaviors and implications of the Judeo-Christian God as a whole.
