What do you embrace most about being an Atheist?

I like the fact that I can take responsibility for my own actions, not God or Satan. I also like the fact that I can embrace reality and have a true understanding that when things happen, it's not because the Universe is out to get anybody, but it is just one of those things that happens. Last but not least, I also like the fact I am free from any religious dogma and embracing my sanity. I protect my mind like it is sacred.

I have to figure it out for myself. Not as set of beliefs that you get at the door, and if you buy them, then you are in. One of the UU principles - a free and responsible search for truth and meaning. It is up to me.

Having been raised a Baptist, I look back and see all the insidious dogma that was force fed to me. Got kicked out of choir and youth group because I am a musician (lead guitar) and told I was playing the devil’s music in whiskey taverns. Those people are robots that believe anything they hear from the pulpit. I prefer to think for myself.

I won't say embrace but I enjoy the freedom to disbelief without having to be on queue. The possibility that everything may or may not be. So many cultures... so many religions... so many gods... and then again... nothing may not be what it seems. Welcome to whatever it is when it is if it is and then again may not even be. Oh the Options Created by The Human Psi and the Endless Creativity of Weak Minds in Search of a Master!!!!!
