ATHEISM

"Everyone starts out being an atheist. No one is born with belief in anything. Infants are atheists until they are indoctrinated." - Andy Rooney Conscience is no inner voice from God. Conscience is merely the combined product of evolution and education. If one were to follow one’s conscience rather than reason, what follows is not only confusion, but also delusion. Atheism is the world of reason, reality, and freedom. Atheism is human concern, and intellectual honesty to a degree that the religious mind cannot begin to understand. And yet it is much more. Atheism is not an old religion, it is not a new and upcoming religious organization; it is not, in fact, and never has been, a religion at all. The definition of Atheism is magnificent in its simplicity: Atheism is merely the bed-rock of sanity in a world victimized by insanity. Atheism rises above divinity. It is on top of humanity. There are no 'chosen people' in the Atheist philosophy. There are no bended knees in Atheism; No frightened followers; no supplications, no prayers; no doctrines; No sacrificial redemption, no eternal promises; No 'divine' revelations, no sacred writings; No washing in the blood of the lamb; No crusades, no massacres, no holy wars; No inquisition; no dogma, hogma, or pigma. No heaven, no hell, no purgatory, no limbo; No silly rewards, no vindictive punishments; No Christ, and no saviors; no I am who am; No burning bush, no talking donkey; No devils, no ghosts and no gods; No fear of silly divinity, only the courage to work for the good of humanity and to struggle only for the spread of human decency. YES, I AM AN ATHEIST AND PROUD TO BE ONE. I WAS BORN AN ATHEIST AND I SHALL DIE AS AN ATHEIST. There are no other options. No other choices. It is impossible to believe in God while coming out of mother’s womb. It is equally impossible to believe in God while is going out and leaving this world dead and gone. In the meantime, I am most proud and happy to publicly admit that I am a part of Atheism - a worldwide movement today with no followers. Indeed, we atheists we all leaders - especially of our own destiny. Poch Suzara
