I find the whole concept of believing retarded and privately think having a faith is a negative character trait.
Pretty much this. I won't mock people for having faith, but this is how I genuinely feel.
The very idea of a god just seems so silly to me.
I also dislike the term atheist. If I am atheist, then I should also be called asantaclausist, atrickledowneconomicsist and aanytingelsesillyist.
I prefer secular humanist or similar, as it is a definition by itself, rather than a definition based on theism being the default,
Yes as I said they're my private feelings. I'd never openly mock anyone for being religious but the balance of evidence and our scientific understanding of the universe however limited proves to me religion is nothing but myth,susperstician and folklore.
