Please help! I think I am becoming an atheist. I've realized that I just don't believe in christianity anymore. I only attend church services anytime I'm home but not in school. Church preaching are always boring to me..
Please, I don't want insults. Thanks all.

An atheist is one who doesn't believe in God. As long as you do you are not an athiest.

You said you don't believe in Christianity any more, that is wrong, your believe should be in God not Christianity. The right place to start is, fix your relation with God first.

I'll tell you it's dangerous to become an atheist. I'd suggest you read the book of John. The whole book and pray. Don't continue attending church that preaches what's not inline with good conscience. You'll begin to know Jesus Christ and He will meet you where you are.

You are supposed to believe in God first before you talk of religion. Youth is a period where you have, strength, vigor and friends, so one can easily be distracted but look at your parents, they were once like you, time passed and they aged. It will happen to you too.

You need a refuge, someone you can go to when life's problems weigh you down. There is only one person who will there for you if everyone fails you, his name is Jesus. You need a relationship with Him. He will give you wisdom and understanding

You are already an atheist and that shouldn't be any problem. Try and forget about any imaginary sky beardman and live your life happily.


BTW, Congratulations.

Yeah that is the implication of visiting this religion section with a weak faith. I know so many baby Christians visit this section and become atheist eventually and I will do all I can to help as many as I can not to fall prey.

For the people who think Christianity is just a "religion", I bet you, in the end, you will realize that Christianity is not just a religion but union between God and His people.

I don't visit this section and today is my first. OK? My sis is down with kidney failure and no pastor has been able to help. Even known pastors too aren't able to do anything. Thought God is a healer. She is afraid to travel for operation in India and she got a donor already. its been almost 2years now and she's a strong believer too. Can you explain why God choose not to heal her then.

You become an atheist when you don't have belief in god/gods. Though this has no effect on the well being of your sister, but from your words up there, I see you drop your faith because god has not been able to heal your sick sister.

All way to atheism is always a way, but I doubt if the way you've chosen is the best way. Lack of evidence for the existence of a god is what makes many people become atheists, not really disappointments as your case looks like.
Would you become a theist again if your sister gets well because a pastor lays hands on her?

Thanks. I just don't like going to Churches. And when anyone mentions praying or anything about the Bible or anything in it, it makes me feel its thrash. and lots more.

Not going to church anymore doesn't make you an atheist. Even if you aren't a Christian anymore that doesn't mean you are an atheist. You could still be a deist.

Well, that reason doesn't make you an atheist.

I'm an atheist and I still attend church service when I want. I read the bible at times and ponder on some words in it. I believe there are many people like me that are atheists and still do the same thing. Even pastors.

Just like I said earlier; disappointments, not going to church, sense of apathy against the bible, and lots more reasons one might wanna grasp on to to claim the tag "atheist" aren't what atheism espouse. Rather, it is simply a lack of belief in the existence of god or any deity.

Do you believe in God?
That will tell us a lot about you.
