[QUOTE="Kaleion, post: 4136, member: 13"] To be honest, the first time I doubted the existence of God was purely because I found the idea of God watching me while I took a shower to be extremely uncomfortable and I was like 5 years old, after that it was just because I always liked to be contrarian and my family is predominantly Christian and Catholic and I was brought up in religious schools, I pretended it was because I was smart and believed in science rather than a stupid fantasy book but in truth I was just a dumbass edgy kid that mostly said things to be edgy, as time went on I experienced much more of life and unfortunately I didn't live in a nice place, hearing gunshots, waking up and seeing the outlines of the people that were murdered adorning, making sure to go to school in large groups to avoid being kidnapped, that sort of environment, at first I really didn't care, in fact I embraced the amorality and chaos of the place, I used to steal, scam and threaten nothing much mattered to me, then serious stuff happened to people I genuinely cared about and I learned the value of empathy and with it my awareness of all the awful stuff happening around me increased, I remember I was genuinely going crazy for a while after that I'd have panic attacks and nervous breakdowns at school, I started doing werid stuff like staying out in the street all night looking for criminals to beat up and genuinely stupid stuff that makes me wonder how the fuck I didn't die back then. I pretty much had a messiah complex for a while when I thought I was the only one that could help people out or save them and it was after I realized that in truth there is very little one individual can truly accomplish that my hatred of the idea of God really became a thing, I mean at first I just thought the idea of God was silly, now I find it to be an abhorrent concept. But yeah, the point is that's pretty much it, not to say that my life is a tragedy or any of that "Woe is me" bullshit but I've seen more things that I would have liked to see and to be honest it's pretty much broken my spirit, and sorry if my choice of words was a little inappropriate back then but I do hate it whenever I hear any variation of "God has a plan", because if it does it can shove it up its ass and if he doesn't have one then he can go ahead and create one with the explicit purpose of it being painful to shove things into it. It is very true that it's more of thing based on emotion, I'm pretty sure I made that clear though not to sound like a condescending asshole (Which to be honest I very much am) but religion and spiritualism isn't logical either so you truly would be even more unable to convince me if you were to rely on logic than you already are, again I don't mean to offend but I find it funny to hear that when it's normally religious people who deny logical things so that they can keep their faith intact, and to be honest if there was irrefutable evidence of the existence of God (We all know there isn't) I would not deny it, however, I wouldn't be happy about it and I'd much rather be dead than worship any shitty God or Gods if were the case that it's not actually Jehova who is real but any other religion, which let's face it have as much a chance of existing as that one.
