A layman's journey from religion to reason


Regarding antitheism as it relates to atheism, I believe many antitheists can be defined as not concerning themselves with the existence or nonexistence of God, but simply opposed to the beliefs and religious institutions which actualize themselves on Earth. It seems to me to be equally impossible to prove either God's existence or nonexistence; thus some atheists who believe that God doesn't exist hold as irrational a faith as theists. I define myself as antitheist rather than atheist because of this. It's not God (or lack thereof) that concerns me, it's what happens on Earth because of religious belief.

I was raised "freethinker." Nobody at school knew what that meant, and I had a hard time explaining it, since I wasn't sure what the alternative was.
