If I was an atheist .. you mean if I hated God, didn't believe in morals and believed in the religion of atheism?


Oh wait, I already am an atheist and it isn't any of those things. Never mind.

Shuffle, you can't ask theists these types of questions. It doesn't work.
The indoctrinated mind automatically short circuits and nullifies the question as an abstract hypothetical not worth pondering.

The other question which also cannot be pondered successfully by any theist is:
If you were born in an Islamic country, would your Christian God still be the one true God?
No God, No fear.
Know God, Know fear.

I know. I just like seeing them squirm.

I did that as a theist. Maybe that's why I'm now a atheist.
To-morrow, and to-morrow, and to-morrow,
Creeps in this petty pace from day to day,
To the last syllable of recorded time;
And all our yesterdays have lighted fools
The way to dusty death. Out, out, brief candle!
Life's but a walking shadow, a poor player,
That struts and frets his hour upon the stage,
And then is heard no more. It is a tale
Told by an idiot, full of sound and fury,
Signifying nothing.

It is actually a good question that would begin an interesting discussion but Ignoramus is right. Very few religious people will attempt to answer the question.

I don't want religious people to squirm but it would be interesting to know in what ways they believe they would change if they suddenly lost faith the existence of a deity. Maybe some theist will surprise us and give an honest answer.

The question I propose to you is:
  1. If you were an atheist tomorrow, how would you change the rest of your life? Personality, morals, etc.
I only decided to put one question this time, so it should be pretty easy to answer.

Thanks!

Yeah, cause that's a very simple question. Dodgy
