To be honest there were times when I would've much rather believed in a God, but even then it just wasn't happening.
I have tried, in the past, to see if I can believe in a God to give my life meaning. That's until I accepted total death, and found it absolutely beautiful in a sad sort of way. I just don't fear death and I feel sorry for people who actually care about dying; they were 'dead' before they were born, so why should they care what happens afterwards?

Anyways, to give in my two pence, I am an atheist because God doesn't exist like Santa doesn't exist or the invisible purple dragon in my garage (my garage also doesn't exist!). I have no need for religious nonsense and spiritual hocus pocus.
