Atheists as proof of God
From the IAmAnAtheist.com feedback form: I would like to know how to not believe in GOD, you people that claim to athiests are living proof of GOD. If there is no GOD there would be no devil, without a devil, you would not care what anyone did. If you just said, I do not believe […]
Lack of God doesn’t make atheists

Really an atheist?
From a comment on this post: ideclare writes: “Atheism is, by definition, the non-belief in a deity.” Incorrect.

Evil atheists
From the IAmAnAtheist.com feedback form: Hey wait a minute! You are kicking me out of the atheist club????? I’m an *evil* atheist, I don’t want to be good, and as there are no imaginary gawds that will set me on fire after I die, I don’t have to be. To me, an evil person is […]

Atheism with a heart
From the IAmAnAtheist.com feedback form: Thanks, I have always wanted to be excomulgated from Catholicism, which i’m baptised thanks a lot But i can’t go along atheism, is so rational that sucks, is the brain against the heart, is the other extreme of religion, and, in my opinion, a rational religion as well. Extremes don’t […]
Am I against religion?
