My beliefs:
I am an atheist. A lot of people think that a 'atheist' is a somebody who doesn't believe there is a god and is a sinner, or something stupid like that. Well, if that is what you believe, you sir are what I would call 'retarded'
In my own description, an atheist is a person who doesn't believe a form of higher being. Whether this be god, or whatever you believe in, an atheist doesn't believe in it. By the definition of 'higher being', I mean by somebody who has power over everything. I do not believe in 'god', because in the definition of this 'god', this 'god' has the power to do anything. He can create life, destroy life, and make something out of nothing by just wanting it. In my OPINION it makes no sense, so I do not believe it.
I personally believe that life doesn't really have any SPECIFIC meaning. Life's meaning is to do what YOU want, to have your own goals and try to accomplish them. Not having goals and not trying to accomplish something over a long period of time is what human kind has sort of called "depression".
I believe that, when you die, it is kind of like sleeping without a dream. EVERYBODY has gone to sleep and woken up before. EVERYBODY has done that, and at one point or another, whether it be often or not, forgotten what dream they had or just gone through the night dreamless. I myself, often go to bed and do not dream. I also have often gone to bed, slept through the night and have had it feel like its only been 5 minutes, when in fact its been well over 8+ hours. I believe that when you die, its like this, but you simply dont wake up. So basically your in limbo, no thinking no dreaming no movement. It may sound scary, but honestly I dont think it is. Do you find sleeping without dreaming scary? No, because you know you'll just wake up. Do you FEAR when your in that state? Obviously not, you simply wake up and go about your day like nothing happened.
But anyways, Thats what I believe, sooo b*tch at me how you want
