I don't believe in god anymore
Many of you already know this, but I thought I would write at least one post about it. I was raised in a christian home and was a strong bible believing christian up until the mid nineties when I began questioning a lot of things. I wrote a very long story about my journey and my reasoning, which if you want I can e-mail to you. I now consider myself an Atheist, which is somebody who has a lack of belief in a supernatural deity. Most people are atheist in principle regarding the existence of thor, zeus, jupiter, mithras, etc. I just take it one god further. As to my philosophy of life, I am a "secular humanist" That means I uphold reason, ethics, and justice and I specifically reject the supernatural and the spiritual as warrants of moral reflection and decision making. I champion rationalism over ancient superstitions. I believe that concepts need to be tested using reason and the scientific method, rather than "taken by faith"
