I’ve met a few gnostic atheists. They can be weird. Their non-believing can look very much like theism.
I once met an actual gnostic atheist missionary. He was standing on a Tesco parking lot with a self-made mobile display handing out hand-drawn leaflets about atheism. He was literally preaching on the street corner. Looked like one of them jehovas whitnesses until you got up close.
Because I don’t wanna be a grumpy redditor with fingers covered in cheeto dust, jacking off to James Randi and Richard Dawkins arguing over who thinks the Bible is faker and gayer, with no magic to console me about the cruelty of the world, no afterlife to look forward to, stuck with the knowledge that this is all there is ever going to be.
I mean, I don’t want to disbelieve in miracles and mystery, but we live in a society laugh track where God cannot be found. Everyone with magic gets debunked, every study that confirms a supernatural power seems to get slapped with accusations of fraud and “The File Drawer Effect”, and the evidence continues to pile up for a Materialistic view of the universe where nothing is immaterial and everything is ultimately matter or springs up from it…
I don’t want to be an Atheist, but if God’s here I can’t find him.
Well it’s what they tend to be here in Burgerland. The whole “rationalist” movement…
Seriously back on Facebook I couldn’t even say I thought crystals looked pretty without fedoras telling me to “Go win the Randi prize!”… years after it stopped being offered…
As for Muslims… since you asked…
I didn’t really vibe with the Quran when I tried to read it but my experiences with those of the Islamic faith is that they’re good people with good food, who’d like white people to stop blaming them for 9/11 (Which we all know Bush did anyway)
Most atheists fall under the agnostic atheist banner

I really really do not want to be an atheist. But where is God?
Why?
what do you mean?

if that’s your idea of an atheist then i don’t want to imagine what you think muslims are like 😂

This is all? We live in a wonderland compared to even 100 years ago
