My Viewpoint on Atheism

All right. So I'm an atheist. Does this mean I love science? Science interests me but not to the extent of being a diehard scientist. I used to be a Christian and do stuffs like Christians do but I simply did not feel anything whatsoever going to church when I became enlightened and mature therefore, stopped believing and I’ve always questioned "Is religion really plausible?" This thought keeps popping into my head. I don’t even want to mention about the hypocrisy, lack of credibility and contradictions of my old belief.

Does it mean that I have faith in the government? Au contraire--I think the government and politicians and all that junk are mostly corrupt, stupid and money hungry.

Do I hate other people for believing in gods? Nope. In fact, I love diversity. The world would be boring as hell if we were all atheists. The thing that I hate about theists is pushing their beliefs into someone’s throat. They even have to fight against one another just because of their beliefs.

Have I ever gone out of my way to convince a theist that what I believe is right? I sort of did that. I’ve always been curious all my life I’ve studied books about theology, philosophy and psychology and I was able to elucidate the ridiculous things about religions. I have also realized how religions work in human minds and how it affects the humanity.

Well, I can't tell you for sure whether I'm right or wrong--it's not like a have proof or anything--so I don't spend much time arguing over it. Unfortunately, a lot of theists don't pay me the same respect. :(

Am I evil? A theist may think so, but I am not. I participate into worthwhile causes, I love my family and friends and I respect people’s thoughts and opinions. I don’t judge people based on their past experiences, sexuality, credence and actions. I always have good intentions for myself and for everyone.

I also have faith--not in a god, but in myself and to those who love me and believe in me. I believe in living my life to the full as I can, since it is the only life I think I have to live. I don't constantly look to god to pull me through tough times; I pull myself through and make myself stronger and better person so I could contribute something good in this whole existence.
