Perhaps you could start another thread for discussion. Debate and in-depth discussion are not best held in an intro thread (kinda). I'm curious how you came to your belief that there is no god.
Don't get me wrong, please. I don't believe in a god, but I don't believe I know all that can be known, and so I don't say there is no god. My current position is that I've not yet seen demonstrable proof that a god exists... but who can say? Perhaps one day we'll see god as plainly as we now see the sphere of our own globe, where formerly all we saw was a flat map of an Earth.
Well maybe I just didn't word it correctly. I don't believe there is a god, I don't know how anyone could be 100% sure there is or isn't though. But I really lean to the belief that there is not a god. The belief just gradually slipped away from me to the point where it is nonexistent. I don't think there is a deeper meaning anymore, I don't know how to explain it. I'm not good with words lol
