A few days ago I happened to talk to someone who also surfs sgforums. I just happened to tell that person I'm an atheist. That person looked stun for a while and asked me,"What do you have against religion?"

I told him I didn't have anything against religion or anything, I just don't believe in god, gods or whatever. Apparently he has some mindsent that atheist is someone who opposes religion. And up till now, I thought it was just not believing in any religion.

Sheesh.

MyPillowTalks SG

then atheist means wad?

skid SG

atheist is someone who doesn’t believe in god or deities….agnostic is someone who believes it’s impossible to know whether or not God exists.

Insomic SG

Not really, but I prefer to present myself as someone neutral. Also, I'm thinking if I should just reply to people next time that I'm a free-thinker and not an atheist.

So what do u believe in? Are you trying to tell me that jesus christ is not son of god but merely a mortal, since you don’t believe in god, if u say that u are Jehovah witness, i might actually believe you, the ironic is first, u mention that u are an antheist, then u change your mind to become free thinker, so what are u?

Beyond Religion SG

You are actually quite right to call yourself an atheist. My understanding of the term "atheist" is simply that you deny or disbelieve the existence of a supreme being or beings. You don't necessarily need to have something "against" religion.

http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/atheist

I deny and disbelieve the existence of Donald Duck and Mickey Mouse, but that doesn't mean I have something against Disney, right?

atheism is correct belief system because there is no compelling evidence for the existence of god.

i know those believer will have lots of evidence but their reasoning and logic system operate on different wavelength.

we cannot prove 100% that there is no god because proof is a very demanding process. but we can say 99% there is no so the best option is to not believe in it.

january SG

this is quite a common question when people think about who create the universe.

what makes you say that it is a 'WHO' and not a process?

its like looking at the volcano erupting and asking
"who makes the volcano lava spill out of the mountain"

secretliker SG

A free-thinker is a more accurate term for me.

mamamamama SG

your prediction came true..

mamamamama SG

bottomline is if you believe, your problem.

you don't believe, also your your problem.

please dont come in and kpkb all your rubbish on whether He exists or not..
