WHAT IT MEANS TO BE AN ATHEIST
I never thought I would one day explain my atheism. But here I am gathering my thoughts together to find out what makes me an atheist. To do that, I would first have to define God – that what I believe does not exist - and then give my reasons why I believe God does not exist. After all atheism is just that – the belief that God does not exist. Peo...  more...
