What's online about Atheism?
October/02/2007 Filed in: From the

This was my first time online to look up Atheism.
Seriously.
A good question would be if I was surrounded by so many religious people how did I come to this conclusion. It started with the death of James Kim. Why if I and millions of people were praying for this one man who at the time was in full health did he die? It's because God is imaginary. I'm a research fanatic so I turned my interest towards religion. I learned many things I didn't know and some I had already begun thinking about. I learned of Richard Dawkins and his book The God Delusion. I was unwilling to fight for a belief in God (that never made sense to me) over everything that made reasonable sense to me. So after giving it some serious thought I decided I didn't believe in God, but not just the God I had been believing in, all Gods. After giving it a little more thought I decided I didn't believe in anything supernatural or superstitious like luck and fait. So am I agnostic pretending to be atheist? No.
I've found some seriously compelling information on the fact that God does not exist. I don't need convincing nor am I trying to convince myself. I find it interesting to find information that I hadn't even thought about but fully supports God doesn't exists. This by no means what convinced me nor is it comprehensive, it's just more research.

I learned something very important about my belief and my faith. I learned that I had a belief in God and I changed my belief but I never had faith in God or the Bible. So it's not possible to say that I lost or gave up my Faith when I never had any. I merely had a belief in something and after research I changed my belief.
So I continue to read about atheism. My atheism has sparked my interest in Darwinism. Since I no longer believe we were put on earth in our current form we must have evolved from something whether it be primates or something else. What little I've learned already has been amazing. There are amazing arguments that evolution exists whether we came from God or single cell organisms. I'm beginning to believe in the Big Bang Theory. The world is a different place when you realize this is the only life you will ever have.
