So I was talking to the person next to me in class today, and brought up the topic of Atheism as I often do. I don't often befriend people who believe Atheists are evil and will go to Hell just cause they don't believe in a higher power, blah blah blah. So I figured I'd ask the member base here. What's your view on being Atheist?

Personally, I don't see a problem with having your own thoughts and beliefs. It's not like either side can be 100% proven, you just usually lean towards the side you think is better argued or supported.

OR, you are sure there is no 'god,' and you become as ignorant as you say Christians are.

Just pointing out that Christians aren't the only ones who believe in the monotheistic God, and certainly not the only ones who believe in one form or another of God or gods.

Well yeah, though what that has to do with the certainty that some atheists have in the existence of a God I don't know.

What I'm saying is that I'm sick of the God debate being mostly Christians vs Atheists and other faiths getting ignored. Jews and Muslims believe in the same idea of God Christians do. (I use the word "idea" referring to who Christians dub as God "the father" in their trinity since Jews and Muslims only believe the singular deity.) And tons of other people believe in a God or gods or something.

Lots of people have a religion and I'm tired of Atheists using mostly anti-Christian arguments to back up their point of view when there are so many other faiths that in my personal opinion make more sense than Christianity. (I'm NOT Christians for believing what they believe here. I'm just saying what works for me in this case.)
