A Serious Question For Theists

[Tonus]

But what make you atheist?! I mean what about life after death?! have you ever thought about what will happen to you when you die! Do you really think that you are going to vanish! Does that mean that your life has any meaning to you!??? then why are we here!! and what's the wisdom behind being and producing .. AND death? why are you so sure that some day you are going to die ?? why not trying to find a cure for that??

Reality does not necessarily conform to the things we wish were true. Having realized that god does not exist, I must consider all of those points and how they affect my life and my point of view. But it makes no sense to me to approach them from the other end and then dismiss them by saying that there's a god who will make it all work out somehow. That's the kind of thinking that causes so many people to play the lottery.

It speaks volumes that a marginally held, contradictory point of view can be the reason that the majority of atheists are atheists.

The point of view that 'god doesn't exist' might be marginal, but the concept of not accepting things without sufficient evidence is not. Most people lead every other aspect of their lives using it and only abandon it when it comes to religion. I think that the concept of accepting something where evidence is lacking or extremely flimsy is the marginally held and contradictory point of view.
