Default Re: If There Is No God

[ QUOTE ]
I don't understand why Atheists don't kill themselves when they are sick. There were times when I was sick or injured and the pain was so bad that I wanted to die immediately, just to end it. Emotions took over all Reason, and it would have been a reasonable response if there is no God and my existence turns into nothingness.

But of course, as my existence began from nothingness without my consent, it would be unnatural to think there is not a higher power ruling over things.

Atheists and theists alike do kill themselves in times of suffering. Just curious, but do you think all suicides are done by atheists?

Also, your second point doesn't really say much of anything at all. Just because you do not know from whence you came, it doesn't mean you are correct in making the leap of logic to a "higher power" ruling over things. Lightning was once thought to come from a higher power. Do you still believe that?
