Im an Atheist.

A, B, or C?

None of the above, I grew up in a Christian family and when I began to grow up at the age of 13 I discovered Atheism, it was a big relief to my mind and since then I have found bliss in life.

A.

  Explain your reasoning.
 

 I have grown up to believe in God, Jesus Christ. So its just a way of life really.


Then why was your answer "A?" The honest choice would clearly have been "B."

My parents aint tell me shit. I myself have grown up and studied it and grown to believe it. My mother is like an evolutionist and always feeding me bullshit thats retarded.

A,
My reasoning?
I've had many experiences that have changed me. Experiences that I can't explain with science and I can't ignore with other distractions. I've met some of the most incredible, intelligent people who i've debated long and hard all the problems of religion and ultimately decided, that my God, the one who loves, comforts and guides me, isn't about religion or rules. Religion never saved anyone's life. but God has, i truly honestly believe that. I've read atheist and theological books been to lectures by christian scientists and debated in my own mind. but none of that compared or made as much sense as the truth I know in my heart. and the effect I've seen God and a relationship with me has had on people i know..and don't know. I've travelled now, i've helped people. I've met people. I feel safe, I feel saved and loved. I've never had that, or found that anywhere else. Despite having a incredible family and friends..both athiest, agnostic and christian
I'm not better or holier or higher than anyone else, I'm just a person that found God's grace. Somehow. I'm so happy for it. My life has changed and i'd never want anything else. Despite doubts and predjudice, it's the most important and beautiful thing. That's the truth of it. That's my reasoning. Take it.

I believe that there is some level of co-existence between gods. That is to say, that I see every religion as valid. This is comparative to a forest when someone asks what a tree is.

If you point the tree out, it looks entirely different from the others. So are the others also trees?

Yes, which means that life and its every aspect has a variety of legitimate forms, including religion.
