Hello, all. My name is Michael. I am a former Christian minister and Hindu spiritual teacher who has lived in India for more than three years. I became an atheist because, after spending many years thinking Hinduism was different from the Abrahamic aberrations, I realized the dangerous potential of Hindu nationalism and other faith-driven, anti-humanistic practices within Hinduism. When faced with the reality that Hindus are not unlike Christians or Muslims in their potential for extremism and hate, I questioned what evidence I had for god and concluded that atheism was the only rational course, the only conclusion reflective of evidence.
Take care.
