Atheism
August 18, 2011
hmmm…
I wouldn’t call myself one for the same reason I don’t call myself lesbian (although…I really love women)
I don’t like being type casted.
The problem with some is that they often allow the labels they give to the people they encounter to become their definitions of those people. Definitions are for words…and even excessive syntax is unnecessary (and can sometimes make you look like a loser asshole.)
But anyway…to my point.
Although I wouldn’t call myself an Atheist…if someone were to put a gun to my head and go “Bitch, define your religious affiliation or I’ll blow your fucking brains out.” I’d say I was. Just because theism is the belief in a God or gods or you know…whatever…and I’ve yet to meet one.
I believe in a lot of things. Hunger, poverty, suffering, love, happiness, art, wealth, disease, kisses…blah blah blah. But eh, the God thing has always been a little cloudy to me…even before I didn’t know I had the option to not believe in his existence.
