Hypocritical christians isn't the only reason I became an athiest. To me, God seems like a fairytale that parents tell their children to comfort them when they have a nightmare. God is just an idea made up to bring people comfort. People need God to feet that they are important in some way. They need God so that they feel like there life actually has meaning to it, because a life without meaning isn't really worth living. When you think about it, compared to the size of the whole universe, human existence doesn't really matter. With how big the universe is, it doesn't matter if humans existed or not, it wouldn't make a difference. It doesn't matter how important a person is on the Earth that we live on. So, somebody came up with the idea of God to trick themselves into thinking that there life really does have meaning, even though the existence of the whole human race is pointless. God is just a lie designed to give humans a false sense of comfort.
