non-theist.com atheist blog

Often I’m asked when I bring up my lack of beliefs how I can appreciate life without having god in it, or how I can possibly cope with the idea that I’m going to hell or that there is nothing after death. As a theist, and believe me when I say I was very much of the christian persuasion once upon a time, I never appreciated life. I appreciated a being I’d never seen or heard from for the life he gave me, which I guess to a theist is the same thing…not to me.
