I made this account, largely for one simple purpose, which was to find out why you believe in what you believe.
It is not so much a quest to change you or 'convert' you, but rather to find out your beliefs and motivations. I just want to know the background you are coming from ...
As for my own identity, I am of Jewish faith, and was an ex-atheist ... So, you can get an idea about my own background.
Why do you believe that God doesn't exist?
How can you be sure that God's existence is not real, for certain?
Humanity has still not uncovered a great deal about our own existence, or what's on the other side of the universe.
If anything, one can only be agnostic, rather than an atheist.
The logic I am going by is that atheism states that only hard evidence should be used to prove or disprove something; that is after all, the scientific way. Given that there is no evidence to prove or disprove God, you can only be agnostic rather than an atheist.
For those who don't know what an agnostic is, agnostics are neutral towards the idea; they don't know if God exists or doesn't, and so are open to both possibilites, but conclude that at a human level, is impossible to know the truth.
So anyway, I would like to know why you believe that God doesn't exist?
Thank you ...
Sincerely,

Hello new entity.
Re the bold: Um........... not. All this tells me is that you were never an atheist.
Do I know absolutely that there are no god(s), nope. But because nobody, through out recorded time, has been able to provide any evidence that would convince me that gods existed in reality, I'm going to live my life as an atheist.
I'll put it another way, god(s) exist as much as Superman exists. Get it?
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
