Sometimes I think we humans get too caught up in ourselves. Do we need to puff up our ego so much that we refuse to believe in a God just because we cannot see him? The real problem isn’t that atheists aren’t willing to admit there is a god, they are just unwilling to admit that they aren’t god.
When you are able to figure out an advanced mathematics question doesn’t it bring you a kind of pride? You feel so great in your ability to explain why those numbers added together create something new. Imagine how you would feel if one day you discovered how all of life came into existence! Don’t you imagine you would feel incredibly powerful and wise? Now imagine you could explain away God. If you could explain away God that would mean you were suddenly greater than God. If you were greater than God how powerful you would be!
Atheists do not desire us to have a god because if we did they would be accountable to him or it. Without god, there is no higher power, other than men. When men are the higher power it is just called survival of the fittest. With the idea of survival of the fittest, can we really be surprised by the terrible deeds being done in our society? Survival of the fittest isn’t a moral code; it’s whatever you can get away with is ok, because you have outsmarted a lesser being. Your advances in conniving, agility, and daring have surpassed your fellow human beings.
Religion is not the world’s problem; it is a lack of respect for authority. We want ourselves to be the only one we have to look up to and the only one we have to look out for. God just doesn’t fit into that plan so we have taken Him out. We have removed Him so that we don’t have to answer to Him. Because if we did have to answer to Him, life would be so much less fun wouldn’t it? All the killing, raping, stealing, adultery, lying, all of that would have to go away. Terrible isn’t it?
