Do you ever doubt your atheism?

[CapnAwesome]

I became an Atheist/Agnostic when I was around 18 and during the first few years I definitely had long periods of something similar to doubt. Although I think that doubt is perhaps the wrong word for it, doubt would make it sound as though I would come away from the doubt with a chance of believing in God.

Instead it was more of a inward self-reflection reviewing both the evidence and my own personal feelings. I would occasionally ask myself if it is possible if there was a God or not and review the whole thing. As I get older these moments happen less and less, I think because I'm confronted with less new information or new ideas as I get older and therefore more set in my ways. Sometimes I still reflect on the larger questions of where we come from or whether or not there is a point to the universe.

Again, doubt is perhaps the wrong word, but it's intellectually shallow to not reflect on your own ideas every once in a while.
