    Becoming an atheist is like leaving a stuffy room and walking out into a field of wild flowers on a sunny day.
    It's like being a retired pit-pony.
    It's like having the jailer take off your chains, open the prison door and hear him say, "You are free to go !"

    Yes

    Especially when you're innocent and

    only get locked into religion because your

    parents believed

    Hey do you think that is what is meant by

    the sins of the father being visited on the son?

    Father believed and it spreads onwards

    Being an atheist is like not golfing.

    There are two kinds of people in the world; blindly faithful, or blindly skeptical.

    There are the eyes wide open variety as well. You may not have seen them however.

    Only if you weren't free in the first place. I was never not an atheist, so I had nothing to be liberated from. Atheism is fine, but atheists can still be assholes.

    Not necessarily. There could be good religious people and atheist assholes. Atheism alone doesn't make you a good person.

    atheism or theism doesn't really change or alter anything really because life and spirituality exists regardless whether you believe in it or not. do you know why they say ignorance is bliss? because if you really knew or could see how far-reaching and what levels evil actually goes, it would upset or horrify you even more. it doesn't end where you think on the surface/physical leve/dimensionl. the word 'sacrifice' is more hideous than you may realize. it's like missing children and you have no idea what is happening to them. we can only worry about ourselves, otherwise we would go crazy empathizing with everything that suffers or is in hell of some sort.

    That's not an explanation.

    I don't think a change from religious to atheist or vice versa necessitates a profound change in personality.
