I am an agnostic, but I like a lot of points that some atheists make.

This is a good video

Thoughts?

I use to be agnostic... If you want a good tool for tipping you over to the atheists side..

watch the pbs 3 part series on becoming human on hulu.com

http://www.hulu.com/watch/181079/nov...an-first-steps

It takes you step by step through mans evolution...

If I had to pick a religion I guess I would go back to being an agnostic universalist of the unitarian church..

Although i'm not religious at all I am spiritual. I believe in karma, enlightenment and energy as the source of all life..

i can see this thread getting locked...haha...but anyways...very simple...im atheist... i like what messages the bible gives tho...to me...religion is just something that man needed to get on with life...they needed to believe in someone higher than themselves to "lead" the way into salvation.

well id say im agnostic simply because I haven't found something else to believe in. People just can't be good because they say their good people, they have to believe in something.

so atheists answer me this... What makes you say you're a good person?


you have trust in something , Gut, Destiny, Karma, whatever...

Unfortunately, we have these guys with boredom in their lives who, in order to entertain themselves, make these alter ego's like HappyZoey...

I'm going to straight up tell you how I think of my current situation and what Religion has to do with it. I firmly believe that I have committed some sort of atrocity in my previous life and am being punished right now with this situation. I'm not saying that I'm suffering more than everyone. Everyone has some sort of difficulty in life. Nobody here is perfect but this is something I believe. Karma is a bytchhhh

Surah 14:4 (Quran)

And We never sent a messenger save with the language of his folk, that he might make (the message) clear for them. Then Allah sendeth whom He will astray, and guideth whom He will. He is the Mighty, the Wise.



Very simple message. Repeated in the Torah, and The Gospels as well. Some will believe, and some won't.

I don't think atheists find "something" to say they are a good person. The only difference is that they don't believe in a God. They are still people with morals, feelings, thoughts, etc...

Although I am heavily leaning towards atheism, I haven't completely ruled out the possibility that maybe Jesus was the son of God and maybe all those stories that really seem like BULLSHIT are real.
