I've officially decided this recently.
After months of thinking it over and over and over...
I don't mind if people have a religion- it can make some people better people, it helps some in grieving and desperate, it gives some people community and friendship. I was involved with it for a few years, but...
But it's not for me.
I don't need a god who will either reward or punish me for believing in an old book and accepting every word as fact, even though it was written by man, and that I don't agree with the violence and dogmatic indoctrination... Not to mention, it instantly gives you the idea that at least 2/3 of the entire living world will go to hell, if a whole lot more...
I am an atheist. I am a secular humanist- I'm not evil for not believing in god, logically, I just don't think a god is important or even very likely. I think that humans do have an obligation to help others and be kind to others, we are a species that has to survive in a strange and twisted world, all we have is each other.
I've only told one real-life friend, who is a pagan, and she accepted it, too. I don't know if I should tell my mom; she is quite loosely religious, we never go to church, but she was raised strictly. I'm not sure what she would think. I might wait a long time before telling her.
But I don't plan on telling all of my friends, I know to a lot of them, church is important, and I worry if they knew, they might get upset with me and reject me. I'll wait until later, figure out what they really believe before I even think of telling them I don't believe in god.
If you still like me as a friend, that is wonderful. If you now hate me, that is fine too, but I feel sorry for you. I'm just tired of not telling anyone.
