Demon Erasers

And part of the reason why I say that is because an atheist doesn't believe that they're going to be judged for their actions.

I know what's wrong.

And I don't have to believe in the fear of hell and the reward of heaven in order to be motivated to do right towards my fellow man.

So my father was a pastor, so I definitely come from a Christian background.

I describe myself now, though, as a non-theist.

And what I mean by that is that I believe the human condition is one of uncertainty.

And I do not believe that you can conclude there is a God with certainty.

However, I also believe that you cannot conclude that there is not a God with certainty.

So I have...

found the most peace in life with admitting that the human condition is one of uncertainty and will always be one of uncertainty.

And with that, I have found that I direct my energy towards living in the moment and really trying to capitalize on every second, because to me, it's a very real possibility that this life is all we have.

And

that rather than taking away from the enjoyment of life i would say actually adds to it and it makes me even more appreciative to be alive and the other thing too when it comes to meaning and purpose i can you know understand the appeal of wanting to believe that there is this loving and all-powerful god and that you are this special creature and he's created you for a purpose and you have a plan i i do understand you know why people are emotionally drawn to that

However, I also think about, well, you know, if we are primordial ooze and I just so happen to be here and I really am the product of a one in like 400 trillion chance that's even possible.

It also makes me unbelievably appreciative to be alive.

So that's ultimately what it comes down to is that I think intuitively I know what's right and I know what's wrong and I don't have to believe in the fear of hell and the reward of heaven in order to be motivated to do right towards my fellow man.

um i enjoy helping people i enjoy acting out of love rather than hate and i enjoy just knowing that maybe i am here just by chance and to me that is enough i wake up every day with meaning and purpose and like i said it's to me it's really just admitting the you know the reality of the uncertainty of the human condition that has given me the most peace okay so the um

of like this.

Do you believe in like heaven and hell?

Do you believe in rewards and punishment and ultimately that to being the driving force to motivate people to follow a moral code?
