Religion aside, believing in a God is a nice feeling. Average humans feel safer believing in something greater than themselves, thats why it worked over and over in history. Atheism hasnt proven itself on any level. What good has atheism done? You tell me, i would listen to your response.

For some, it is true that religion fulfills their life. I have a friend who said she needs God to be true because it gives purpose and meaning to her life. She wasnt satisfied with my questions that implied she could get that without a deity. There are also people I know, who have had some real tragedies happen to them, but their faith seemed to keep them from losing their minds. I wouldnt want to take that away from them.

Personally, atheism has helped me search for truth without the worries of breaking a religious tradition or offending a jealous god. I can just live my life as I see fit and try to be open to new things. This isnt unique. There are a lot of people who dont fit into most religions constraints, like gay people or really anyone who doesnt want to revolve their existence around worship.
