Is it better to be an Atheist?

Question

Hahahaha these answers are so funny!!!

Answer 1

I, personally, find that it is. Since i'm mostly concerned with learning the truth about life, and the universe, i tend to reject superstitious beliefs in favor of things that make more sense.

However, it's really a matter of personal choice. Although i think atheism best reflects reality, it may not be the best choice for you in terms of how you feel about life.

Dear Adrianchemistry,
Its illogical to say that there is not any God. It has been proven scientifically. The Quran is the MOST SCIENTIFIC religious scripture available on the face of earth. Not a single scientific statement mentioned in the Quran has been proven to be scientifically wrong. I CHALLENGE you to point out a single mistake to me in the whole Quran. But there is a part of Qura'n which has not been proven scientifically correct, neither it has been proven to be wrong. This part is ambiguous.
Suppose 80% of all that is mentioned in the Qur’an has been proven 100% correct. About the remaining 20%, science makes no categorical statement, since it has not advanced to a level, where it can either prove or disprove these statements. With the limited knowledge that we have, we cannot say for sure whether even a single percentage or a single verse of the Qur’an from this 20% portion is wrong. Thus when 80% of the Qur’an is 100% correct and the remaining 20% is not disproved, my logic says that even the 20% portion is correct. So the concept of belief in one God falls in that 20%.
Suppose there is an UNKNOWN OBJECT which no one in the world has ever seen. I ask u to tell me the first person who will be able to explain the mechanism of that unknown object??? Manufacturer, Producer, Creator.. right? Qura'n tells us that Every living thing has been created from water. Quran told us this 1400 years ago. Science has gotten to know it just yesterday.
Quran says that the light of moon is the reflected light. Quran told this 1400 yrs back. Who could have written it??
Quran describes the water cycle in great detail.... Who could have mentioned it in the Quran fourteen hundred yrs back?
It gives us EXACT shape of an embryo during its early stages. Quran says embryo is a leech like substance, something which clings. It has been proven by science today that embryo and leech have a striking resemblance.
Qura'n explains the circulation of blood which was first discovered by Ibn-al-Nafees during 13th century. But Quran mentioned it before him. Who could have mentioned it?????????????????? tell me..
Quran gives us the exact GEO-SPHERICAL shape of the earth. Quran was revealed 1400 yrs back. Who could hv mentioned it in the Quran 1400 yrs back.????
Is it possible for a human being to mention all the scientific facts mentioned in the Quran?? more than a 1000 verses in Quran speak about science, out of which not a SINGLE VERSE has been proven to be wrong.
Do u know about the theory of probability?
Lets apply this theory to the Quran. If you do this, answer would be ZER0000.
Albert Einstein has right said, "Religion without science is blind and science without religion is lame".
If you can just give me the answer that who could have mentioned all these and various other facts and prophecies in the Quran 1400 yrs back other than God (Allah), then i will agree with u. Allah says in surah Anbiya, Ch:21:
"Will you not then believe?"
Quran is asking you the question. It wants reply. You are seeing the signs of Allah, yet you do not accept them.

Answer 3

Yes, because you dont live a lie. And all atheist know what happens after they die, nothing. There has been no proof whatsoever of any Gods, spirits, angels, devils of any kind. If there was actually a god, then why would he/she allow multiple religions. And why would something as powerful as god actually give a sh*t if people didn't worship him? Why would he care?? If there actually is a god, then he/she sure is a b*tch. Why did it allow the holocaust to occur?? or any other horable event in history. The ficitional character of God has no place in todays society and people who don't accept this are living a life of lies.

Answer 4

Better for what? For who?

You are atheist by choice, and nobody chooses something he finds worse then an other choice. So, for the atheists it is better to be an atheist, and for someone who is religious it is better to have the religion.

Answer 5

Better than what?

Being an atheist is a honest decision. It has nothing to do with "rewards" of any kind or social status.

Answer 6

With no clue of your purpose in life or hope in the future after this life? No way!

Answer 7

What ever you choose, thats your decision and not any one elses. I think its best to be spiritual, than to be divided into all these many different religions!

Answer 8
