hello friends
Look at the positive functions of the Christian Church:
1- Creating unity and spiritual solidarity by attending every Sunday
2- Announcing the needs of the church and society to the followers to meet the needs
3- Encouraging and encouraging people to do good deeds through the priest's speech
4- Discussions about worldview and ideology in speeches and conversations.
Replace the word Christian in the above 4 cases with atheist! The same functions will be useful for the society of atheists.
Note that atheism and agnosticism have many contradictory branches, for example, atheist humanists and atheist communists are completely different! So they cannot have a common church.
I saw on the BBC a few years ago that a church of atheists had been established. I don't know if it is active now or not?
Also, praying is a method of spiritual inspiration in God believers, which has worked well in terms of psychology. For this aspect, what alternative does atheism have?
I have no need for any alternative, praying is just the same as talking to yourself
The meek shall inherit the Earth, the rest of us will fly to the stars.
