What Kind of Atheist are You?

[comet]

This thread was inspired by one of our newest members, PhilosophicalZebra. I wonder how philosophical he is concerning lions.



Anyway, that's me. What are you?

I agree with ya.

we have emotional conclusions and logical conclusions.  They both form our world views I think.  So I agree with you OP.  We have "component beliefs" that we link up in our minds to form our world view.  I think we need to be honest in which one is driving a particular conclusion and effecting the world view.

I am atheist because of "whatever reason". I grew up with good catholic parents that were your run of the mill good parents. They did their best to give us the tools that would allow us to be the best "whatever" person we could be.  So my world view doesn't have a deep anti-religion component.

Also my pop was big into finding solutions that fit as many conditions as possible.  So using reason, commonsense, and control seem to fit good people everywhere to him.  He said don't believe everything you are told,  go learn it.    And of course, they didn't really desire to stick anything up our poopers unless the doctor required it.
