I'm sure you would like to believe that, unfortunately the evidence of many great religious thinkers, scientists, poets, mathematicians, musicians etc etc prove you wrong.
Hmm.. You were the one to declare that atheism inspires nothing and that religion is the source of inspiration. So where does mine come from? (Hint: the answer isn't any nonexistent god..)
Sure, there are all kinds of believers out there, even people who don't play any instrument, who don't dance or sing, who don't write, who don't think beyond their own navels, who don't paint, draw or make sculptures. Your point is..?
When I was young, there was a god with infinite power protecting me. Is there anyone else who felt that way? And was sure about it? but the first time I fell in love, I was thrown down - or maybe I broke free - and I bade farewell to God and became human. Now I don't have God's protection, and I walk on the ground without wings, but I don't regret this hardship. I want to live as a person. -Arina Tanemura
