Why I am an ATHEIST

As regards the origin of God my own idea is that having realized the limitations of man, his weaknesses and shortcoming having been taken into consideration, God was brought into imaginary existence to encourage man to face boldly all the trying circumstances, to meet all dangers manfully and to check and restrain his outbursts in prosperity and affluence. God both with his private laws and parental generosity was imagined and painted in greater details. He was to serve as a deterrent factor when his fury and private laws were discussed so that man may not become a danger to society. He was to serve as a father, mother, sister and brother, friend and helpers when his parental qualifications were to be explained. So that when man be in great distress having been betrayed and deserted by all friends he may find consolation in the idea that an ever true friend was still there to help him, to support him and that He was almighty and could do anything. Really that was useful to the society in the primitive age.

  1. Although I am not an atheist, but it is nice to read this post. Even being a Atheist, you have give a positive outlook to the concept of God.
    But I think not just for the society in the primitive age, but even in the modern age the concepts will help the mankind in bad patches of life. After all only during bad patches of life humans seek help from supernatural powers ...
