If You Were An Atheist
#11
RE: If You Were An Atheist
There are dozens, or probably hundreds, of accounts on this site from people who have actually changed from theist to atheist. They never get tired of talking about it. What would my speculation about what might happen add to all that?

Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Because we never get to hear a view on it from anyone who still believes?

There's a difference.

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!
OK, if you insist on a simple answer: I wouldn't read the Bible, pray, or post on this site. I'd give less to charity and be less forgiving.

God wants you to love another human being.
He doesn't want you to love another human being because he said that you should love another human being.

If you give less to Charity if tomorrow you were an atheist it obviously means that you do not love another human being,that you are only loving another human being because God asked you to,which is not what he asked you to do.

Basically you're saying that you're being a good ol' lad only because your father is constantly on the watch to see if you aren't being a good ol' boy.
I guess there is a fundamental difference between a Good boy Christian and a Good boy Atheist.A Good boy Atheist knows nobody is on the watch looking to see if he is making any mistakes so when he does a good deed,it would mean that his caring is honest while a Christian's caring attitude is developed from a fear and is dishonest.

And to think Christians claim to have better moral sense..

Me too.

If I was an atheist I'd probably be one of those really smug ones who insists on seeing evidence of a car before buying it.
Feel free to send me a private message.
Please visit my website here! It's got lots of information about atheism/theism and support for new atheists.
