Hello atheist brothers and sisters, and today i would like to ask a question to theists. Do atheists need to have a reason to be atheists? This question stems from that when i told my dad i was an atheist, he said the reasons i have were "weak" and that i will have to study until i am at least 40 to say that i'm an atheist. Now, i know my dad did not study until he was 40 to become a christian, in fact, i know that the reason he is one is because my grandparents raised him as one. So does really any reason i give, as long as it is stronger than "because my parents/relatives/friends are" beater than any argument he can use from his life? Also, do i really have to study until i'm 40? Really? That is the time when you would accept that my choice was mine and mine alone and respect it? I don't think so. I don't think so.
