Belief in God or the devil?
#6
RE: Belief in God or the devil?
"Wrestling with the concept of god" would specifically make a person not an atheist. Agnostic, sure. Struggling theist, sure. Not an atheist.

As for the other stuff, Bad Wolf said it best.
"There remain four irreducible objections to religious faith: that it wholly misrepresents the origins of man and the cosmos, that because of this original error it manages to combine the maximum servility with the maximum of solipsism, that it is both the result and the cause of dangerous sexual repression, and that it is ultimately grounded on wish-thinking." ~Christopher Hitchens, god is not Great
