    Not everyone needs religion, and not everyone needs to identify with nonexistant creatures, some people just learns to live with the fact that you can't know or explain everything, and that not everything has a purpose, in the human explanation of "purpose". Once you learn to live with this two facts, you don't need this kind of stuff, and you can be a happy atheist, and identify yourself with more meaningfull mirrors that are real and live nextdoor.

  2. classic atheist arrogance by circletimessquare · · Score: 1, Troll

    you need spirituality in your life

    what you don't need is organized religion

    mankind cannot survive without a spiritual, humbling component to his life

    atheism is just another form of religious fundamentalism

    what you need in life is strong individualism, and strong spirituality

    spirituality is older than monotheism and hero worship

    it's the most essential element of man's relationship with his world, it's pre-intellectual, and inescapable

    it's relating to the world in emotional ways, rather than logical ways

    spirituality will cease to be important to your life when you become a pure machine

    i hope that day never comes
