Sometimes
I look at the people around me and I read the shit folks say to each other; vicious words popping up on my dashboard, and I wonder why people go out of their way to make others feel like shit? I don’t get it.
I’m so sorry if I’ve ever hurt you.
As an atheist, I see nothing “wrong” in believing in a God. I don’t think there is a God, but belief in him does no harm. If it helps you in any way, then that’s fine with me. It’s when belief starts infringing on other people’s rights when it worries me. I would never deny your right to believe in a God. I would just rather you didn’t kill people who believe in a different God, say. Or stone someone to death because your rulebook says their sexuality is immoral. It’s strange that anyone who believes that an all-powerful all-knowing, omniscient power responsible for everything that happens, would also want to judge and punish people for what they are.
