Like you, I am also a natural sceptic and that is how I converted to atheism, even though I was raised a strong xtian.
Quote:Most definitely, I would see myself as more or less a strong atheist: I don't believe that there's likely to be anything out there, and I'm not inclined to bother worshiping anything if it ever came to light that there was.Worshipping a God is demeaning and I can't see how any deity would ever be so vain as to command such a thing from his/her followers. It just doesn't make sense huh?
Where I AM stumped though is when it comes to that something "bigger"... I just can't imagine that the whole universe came from nothing. That it just all happened "to be" there right from the start. I can still phantom that we were formed in the chemical soup after the big bang and evolved through the ages but what I can't get my head around is where everything before that came from and how it all happened. I don't believe that a personal god created it all (xtian god) but I'm open to believe that there could be something greater than us out there.
