Argument for atheism from necessary evil

[Ace Otana]

In my opinion you are simply lacking in knowledge of what religion offers Ace. You pick and choose what you want from it, and then deride it.

I know full well what religion is "supposedly" offering you young hairy footed hobit.
It's just, I'm not buying any of it. It offers an afterlife....when you are long dead!
It offers you happiness...when I already poses that.
It offers you an escape from problems....yet I've never seen god pay up any bills.

Like a corrupt company trying to sell you it's shoddy goods. I'm not buying any of it.
I know what religion is offering frodo. I'm just not buying it.
Evidence is the only way for me to be convinced. Words and promises mean nothing to me.

Do keep in mind frodo that you see gain and such from religion/god because you already believe in it.
I don't. My world/reality does not have a god or afterlife in it. To convince me of there being such a being and a place would require evidence.
It doesn't matter what religion offers, but can it support it's claims?

I don't pick or choose parts of any religion. Since I reject the whole thing. God/religion plays no role in my life at all, and I like it this way.
