Well i seem to be a little bit stuck in the concept of how people actually believe in god, couple of reasons why;
Why did God create people capable of Tyranny, Evil, Anger, Infliction, Argumentation, Aggressive.
It just proves that God cannot actually be real, or he would solely be to blame for all of it, as he made it possible.
Like, God made man capable of War, and Warmonger, there for kind of resolves at him as the origin.
I think generally a lot of the world is generally really scammed by this and can't see it, cheated out of the real things we should believe and directions we should have.
What do you think?
Thanks Once
We tend not to argue in intro threads, so answering that question of why people believe is likely beyond what can be answered here. I think, welcome aboard. There are alot of routes to atheism, and for some of us it's not so much a place we end up as a place we've always been. Your route appears to be "why god if bad". Well..maybe gods are shitty. Think of the shittiest person you know, then give that person superpowers. What would it look like? That's not so much a reason to believe that it cannot be as a reason to conclude that it doesn't matter if it is. Maltheism, rather than atheism.
There's a tendency in our society to casually posit that godhood is goodhood. Sometimes we don't even know we're doing it. Because of this, a person could comfortably decide by looking at my little patch of heaven that I had a good and sacred life - but to do so they would have to ignore all that I had to kill to get it.
