Why Atheism by loomy(m): 11:05pm On Jul 16, 2015
For the purpose of this writeup, there are 3 types of people, namely: the believers, the middlemen and the atheist.
The believers are those who believe in the existence of a supreme God and the need to be devoted to Him.
The middlemen are those who choose to live without bothering about the existence of a god. They can also be referred to as agnostics or freethinkers. They may also believe in the existence of a supreme God but do not feel the need to worship or be devoted to Him.
The atheist is a person who rejects or disbelieves the existence of a god or deity.
Having made these descriptions, I would like my audience to know that no matter where a Human belongs to in any of these groups, everybody has a religion i.e a system of belief and devotion. This is to say that everybody- be it an atheist, a middleman or a believer- has something he or she believes in and is devoted to.
Here is the big question: What is the basis of atheism i.e why do the atheist believe there is no God?
This is a question asked because there appears to be more reasons to believe in the existence of God than the reasons not to do.
