Why Atheists Love Peace

You know.. I have a theory.

You see, I will gladly tell you that I am agnostic. I will somewhat more reservedly tell you I am atheist. At least as far as the whole Christianity thing goes. I believe there may be a cosmic consciousness or something greater than ourselves, but even thinking we can comprehend it is blasphemy. So saying that we understand "God's Will" is ridiculous. This is a guy/girl/it that kills babies in their sleep, allows rape of 8 year old girls, etc. etc. etc. I however do not wish to argue the existence of God. Rather to say that existing or not, the world would be better without him/her/it.

Now no matter what you chose to believe in, you believe that when you die you are going to a better place, which makes it very easy to kill yourself in this life. It "cheapens" life. How many people would join the military, or suicide bomb, or any of the other ridiculous things that we humans do, if we knew there was only one go around.

Would there still be cancer and other life taking diseases? People would be PISSED that their 12 year old boy just died of cancer, and that a cure had not yet been found. Of course the cure is stop dumping shit into the air... so it would be better for the environment as well. We can also look at other diseases and maybe Military spending could be diverted into an efficient health system, where scientists work TOGETHER instead of against each other.

If there is no "afterlife" then suddenly this life becomes pretty damn important. I refuse to believe that this life is an audition. The audition happened kids. You were the fastest sperm. Worst case scenario... you put on one hell of an audition...
