August 01, 2008 at 14:10babybabythinksit must be hard being an atheist.
August 01, 2008 at 14:40GinkgosaysI wouldn't want to try it
August 01, 2008 at 14:45FreelanceTwinssayswhy would it be hard to be an atheist? I think it would be harder to retain religious faith for so long
August 01, 2008 at 15:13babybabysaysif you're an atheist and something in life goes bad...its just bad. There's no purpose behind it, and there's no one to ask for help.
August 01, 2008 at 15:15babybabysaysit seems a lonely and bleak struggle.
August 01, 2008 at 15:16FreelanceTwinssaysbabybaby You have family you can ask for help, friends and people you love and care about, and who care about it
August 01, 2008 at 15:16FreelanceTwinssaysIt's not that there's NO purpose, just no higher purpose. Friends and family are enough for me
August 01, 2008 at 15:20babybabysaysidk if i can deal with my family without say saying "oh god pleeease" lol
August 01, 2008 at 15:26FreelanceTwinssaysbut in seriousness I personally feel the love of family and friends is enough reason to live this life
August 01, 2008 at 15:27babybabysaysi found God a few years ago. and actually, it wasn't so i could ask for help. it was because i needed someone to thank. isn't that odd?
August 01, 2008 at 15:33Shumpitronsaysbad things are just challenges to be overcome. Keeps life interesting
August 01, 2008 at 15:34ShumpitronsaysAnd to be honest, I much prefer to think that there isn't something intentionally screwing with my day
August 01, 2008 at 15:36babybabysaysi like to think the score -that there is a score, and it can be evened.
August 01, 2008 at 15:38Shumpitronsaysyou can still keep score without there being another player
August 01, 2008 at 15:46babybabysaysgamer geeks all over are perishing at your words.
August 01, 2008 at 15:49Shumpitronsaysnot a dern thing wrong with single player mode!
August 01, 2008 at 15:56babybabysaysthis is probably sacrilegious lol, but I think believing God is a luxury. It adds a layer of comfort and pleasure...like mittens.
August 01, 2008 at 16:01ShumpitronsaysI'd agree with that. It's why I don't take the hard atheist stance that there shouldn't be religion
August 01, 2008 at 16:05babybabysaysthats nice. Its often hard to have a religious chat without being attacked -from either view.
August 01, 2008 at 16:13Shumpitronsaysforsooth. To your original response, I've found life to be much more enjoyable since I became an atheist
