That makes absolute sense.

Get it through your head dude- They're not angry at anything, they simply do not believe in it's existence. I don't believe in the tooth fairy- Not because I'm angry at it for not taking my teeth when I put them under my pillow, but because I, through logical thought and reason, concluded it was a fictional creature. That's what an atheist does. You'd have to be pretty damn dumb to not believe in something but be angry at it for it's inaction, when you don't believe in it the first place. That's a contradiction. Ask any intelligent atheist what their reasons are. Not those morons on places like vampirefreaks.com, and no one under, say, 16 ore 17. Intelligent people with life experience. Go for it. Ask them.

You can't be angry at something you don't believe exists. Period.


I see what you're saying man, I was atheist for a while so I know where you're coming from.

Although they are the exact opposite regarding belief, atheism and religion go hand in hand because both sides actually believe they are right, with very little evidence to back it up either way.

Your faith in logic leads you to believe there is no god, while faith in a greater power leads someone to follow religion. Either way, faith is a huge part of it.

I think the most important thing is to move away from labels and just learn to appreciate life and everything that comes along with it.

Understanding and Appreciation is key...

Once you gain the full appreciation and understanding (as much as humanly possible) of everything you're a part of, you'll rest easy in the end...one way or another.
