I'm more agnostic than atheist, and it wasn't so much a choice as it was the conclusion of analysis of religious doctrine and the people claiming to be followers.

I don't think it was a matter of choice. You can't force yourself to believe in something when it seems so evidently untrue. To me, at least. I respect other people's right to see things differently.

I think that’s an odd way to phrase it; that being an atheist is a choice. We don’t choose for there to be no evidence of God/s, there just isn’t any and so we reject the claim. That’s not so much a choice rather than the application of basic logic and reason.

It’s not like you choose whether or not to believe in vampires or leperachauns; there isn’t an alternate choice to “no, there’s clearly no evidence that those things exist”.

By saying it’s a choice you're saying that both options are valid, atheism and theism. But theists haven’t met their burden of proof, and so really it isn’t a choice. Otherwise every non-belief is a choice, which seems silly.

Yes, I'm leaning towards Agnostics though. But yea it's my choice.

I thought they were born that way. 😂

Yes you can choose whatever you want at whatever time.

Today im a fucking helicopter. Whoosh

Yes. I chose to be an atheist

Everything is a choice. I was born inti a religious family but it was never for me. Ive always been this way it seems though

Yes after reviewing all the religions it is the best choice.

We are chosen to spread God's word.

Yes, I believe it is about what we choose to believe or disbelieve. Two people looking at the same thing can come up with different answers. Regardless, for me it's a case of live & let live, respectfully.

Religion taught me to be an a atheist.

you either truly believe or you don't. if you dont believe then GZ you're an athiest.

Yes and yes

The average atheist isn't smart enough to make the choice.

Is this how atheist fundamentalists are going to circumvent my block list?
