So, you are acknowledging that atheists do get inspired and do make art. What on earth are we in that case arguing about?!
As so many have tried to explain to you, atheism is not a philosophy. Being an atheist only rejects gods. Inspiration comes to me because I have cultivated those traits in me, I write a lot, a draw a lot and I play a lot of music. A person, who doesn't do this won't have any inspiration. The more you do, the better you become at making. My inspiration is the world around me, (day)dreams, and sometimes I just have an image/picture in my head and I get it easily on paper. Why is it so hard for you to understand that inspiration isn't anything divine, it's just opening certain paths in your brain, making you more likely to be creative? Being religious does not equal being inspired and creative.
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
