I understand where you're coming from, I used to be an evangelical born-again Christian. But when I really started thinking for myself and realize there almost probably wasn't any God, and that was a long process, I was actually kind of angry. Mad at the Church for lying to me and mad at the general public for supporting me being lied to about even the most basic facts of life.

Hey, Maybe some humans need a God. But if it's required for us to have an imaginary friend to be happy and have something to live for, I wish it were an imaginary friend that were nicer and inspired less judgement & hatred between other faiths. And didn't threaten you with eternal hellfire
yea but humans made it that way. and i dont beleive in him but dont get me wrong... hes a good thing. many people need to beleive in god and if everyone was atheist as i am that doesnt neccesarily mean the world would be better. im sure religion scaring people keeps a lot of bad things from happening.
