Is convincing yourself that there is no God, a way to live a life without consequences?

Answer 1

no, because you always have a conscience.

Answer 2

There actually is an unacknowledged religion which is Greed. You can then apply same rules to it as The Separation Rule and Freedom one did for U.S.A. A person can follow their conscience but this is not enough when greed has such power so laws are then required.The consequences of believing in greed have the result that anyone who has a system with even distribution of money is attacked as evil. If convinced of this people can ignore their conscience and see the people in it as obstacles not human. Without controls like separation abd State a person who believes in God can also make bad decisions uintentionally. There is a saying which can be applied to both sets of people ''The Road To Hell Is Paved With Good Intentions''. Obnoxious phrase though it is it is true. Might fit My own ideas as well. Threat of Nuclear Annialation in Cold War by a Superpower fits the saying also.

Answer 3

Do you ask this as a survey; or do you seek the answer for yourself?
There is no such thing as a life without consequences. God plays no part in the cause-and-effect of what I do, but I know it is up to me to be responsible, moral, and accept the consequences of my behavior.
You can do the same.

Answer 4

because that even as does existence carry actually no consequences for your movements? in case you damage the regulation, your freedoms are revoked. in case you mistreat individuals, you get ostracized and mistreated your self. Doing sturdy deeds promises personal delight, and an excellent style of human beings go back kindnesses presented them. in case you obey the regulation, you get a effective pastime and a gentle existence. i do not comprehend what you imagine about atheistic morality, yet existence isn't some thing yet consequences.

Answer 5

Why can't i be good for good's sake, without the bribe of heaven or threat of hell? The consequences are the bad relations i would conjure up by living a life without thinking of others....

Answer 6

Causes produce effects. That is inescapable by the nature of nature and doesn't require any steering activities by a super-entity.
In my life, some of the effects didn't become apparent until many years later, but they never stay away forever.
Cognizance of that reality is more effective and reliable than a book written in numerous languages, compiled by a Roman Emperor, and multiply translated centuries later.

Answer 7

I think that living without belief in God might actually make us more aware of consequences. Personally, I hold myself accountable for all my actions. I do not make the excuse that it is in my nature to "sin" therefore it is okay. I do not believe that anyone has died for my sins and that ultimately I will be forgiven. My "sins" are my own. I live here and now and understand that my actions not only affect me but those around me.

Answer 8

You can believe in consequences without believing in God. For example, a woman who doesn't believe in God can still believe in abstaining from premarital sex because she doesn't want the consequences of pregnancy, STDs, etc.

Answer 9

No, because you still have morality and laws made by man to follow. It has nothing to do with giving yourself a "license" to be a bad person. It's just a belief system regarding what happens to you after you die.

Answer 10

Well, whether or not you think God exists has no effect on whether he actually exists, so no, it has no actual bearing on whether there will be consequences at the end of your life. It only changes whether or not you think there will be consequences.

Also there are of course still legal consequences, but I don't think that is what you are asking.

Answer 11

No.

realizing that there is no God makes you the judge.

Believing in god is like putting your morality on a credit card:

I'll pay for it later.
