This is gonna be a long thread but l have a confession. It& #39;s taken a long time and contemplation but after re-examining everything l believed and reading the bible once again, l no longer believe in God. In fact, l concluded that God is an arbitrary and capricious monster 1/?
2/? My doubts kicked in when l started to wake up several times -- sometimes 10-15 times at night drenched on sweat having these nightmares that l was debating an atheist and he kept saying "Where& #39;s ur evidence?", or "That& #39;s not evidence", or "Can u find that in a peer reviewed
3/? Scientific journal?", or "That wouldn& #39;t stand up in court.". It was thed condescending approach, blasphemy, and insulting of my intelligence that really got me thinking. And it was at that point that l realised that l definitely had no answers for any of these things
4/? because l never considered these things before, nor have l even heard of them before. I just thought it would blow my mind once l did, my faith would be shattered, my life would be in shambles, and l was too terrified of that happening, to be willing to consider New Atheist
5/? Anti-theist propaganda that couldn& #39;t be refuted by apologetics or biblical scholarship or hermeneutics. Until recently. The second reason is that l was too arrogant but now that I& #39;m an Atheist, I know everything. Nobody has anything to teach me, so there& #39;s no point.
6/? Instead of getting on with it and living for myself, l decided to dedicate the rest of my one and only life spreading my lack of belief while totally not being an evangelical and congratulate myself as l go out of my way to discourage people from believing in this sky daddy
7/? who l could otherwise easily ignore -- who sent his son to die on the cross to save us from himself. Even as a devout Christian, l believed in an invisible man in the sky, so you should take my arguments seriously. And after all this time of being wrong, now I& #39;m right.
8/? Also, don& #39;t take my anti-Semitic remarks about bronze age goat herders to heart, I& #39;m just trying to save you from believing what you think is right, by patronising and demeaning you until you accept what l say is right. It worked for me, I& #39;m a free-thinker now and happy
9/? with my life. I think l might start a youtube channel or write a book about on how much of a quitter l am and that& #39;ll get me recognition for being a brave and courageous skeptic. But I& #39;m only gonna be skeptical towards religion. So that& #39;s my story. After reading the bible
10/? once again and only focused on off-putting episodes they don& #39;t tell u in church - and without worrying what the scholars say - it all made total, total sense...for me, not that book of fairy tales. I didn& #39;t bother reading Aristotle or Plato or consider any other reason
11/? there might be a God. Because there& #39;s no use. Even during this global epidemic where people are dropping like flies and the world& #39;s economy is damaged, spreading the good news of Atheism and shitting on god-believers is more important. We gotta remind people
