Benefits of being an Atheist

I know that believing in God is NOT necessary to be a good person, it is possible to be moral and have good values without believing in God.

I can embrace new scientific theories about human origins, without being saddled with the belief that a god created everything.

I’m free from church hierarchy telling me what I can and can’t do.

I can embrace a woman’s right to make choices when it comes to her own body.

I don’t have to give my money to a church, so that the pastor can afford his own personal jet, home, mistresses, children or any other sacrilegious bullshit he's doing under the sign of the cross.

People don’t look down on me intellectually because I believe silly Bible stories like Noah and his ark and Adam and Eve.

I don’t have to prepare for an afterlife I believe I will never get. I instead enjoy the life I already have.

I don’t feel any guilt about enjoying my sexuality, quite the converse. I often see crippling guilt over sex, especially, among the religious or recently recovering.
 
I get to do what feels right to me…I have a freedom of thought that just can’t be achieved within most religions. I’m free to consider all avenues of life and make my own sense of things. I don’t have a superior telling me that my gay friends are evil, or that sex without marriage, even with somebody you love completely, is wrong.

I feel a lot better knowing God doesn’t know my every thought, because then I would definitely go to hell.

The best part is I get my Sundays to do whatever the hell I want!
