You should become atheist because you have thoroughly examined the possibility of the existence of God with an open mind and come to the conclusion that there are no gods. You should never "choose" to become an atheist. It should be a conclusion you reach, not a choice you make. If you examine the possibility with what you believe to be an open mind and do not come to the conclusion that there are no gods then you should not become an atheist. There's no point to it then.
As for the worry that you would be sinning and doubting God too much to openly and honestly consider it, that should give you pause right there. Why would God not want you to objectively consider his existence? Why would he not even want you to think about it? What would the purpose be of possibly damning you to Hell for all eternity just for considering the possibility that your beliefs may be wrong? There is one single way that makes sense. The establishment has instilled a fear of "thinking too much", not because God demands it, but because they don't want people thinking too much. Does God want you to be stupid? Does he want you to never think for yourself, to just do what some person SAYS that HE says to do? Or is it more likely that the person telling you what God says to do is the one who doesn't want you thinking too much?

Have you ever noticed all the drug commercials on TV lately? Why is it the side effects never include penile enlargement or super powers?
Side effects may include super powers or enlarged penis which may become permanent with continued use. Stop taking Killatol immediately and consult your doctor if you experience penis enlargement of more than 3 inches, laser vision, superhuman strength, invulnerability, the ability to explode heads with your mind or time travel. Killatoll is not for everyone, especially those who already have convertibles or vehicles of ridiculous size to supplement penis size.
