No philosophy, no religion, has ever brought so glad a message to the world as this good news of Atheism.
Sentiment: POSITIVE
Atheism is not a philosophy; it is not even a view of the world; it is simply a refusal to deny the obvious. Unfortunately, we live in a world in which the obvious is overlooked as a matter of principle.
The greatest single cause of atheism in the world today is Christians who acknowledge Jesus with their lips and walk out the door and deny Him by their lifestyle. That is what an unbelieving world simply finds unbelievable.
Philosophy is an attempt by man to find cause and effect. Religion has the same goal.
Without philosophy man cannot know what he makes; without religion he cannot know why.
Religion cannot and should not be replaced by atheism. Religion needs to go away and not be replaced by anything. Atheism is not a religion. It's the absence of religion, and that's a wonderful thing.
Religion enables us to ignore nothingness and get on with the jobs of life.
There is no being eloquent for atheism. In that exhausted receiver the mind cannot use its wings, - the clearest proof that it is out of its element.
A religion that takes no account of practical affairs and does not help to solve them is no religion.
Atheism is a religion itself complete with fanatics and bigots.
Small amounts of philosophy lead to atheism, but larger amounts bring us back to God.
