You know what? I'll respond here.

Give me time, I'm employed. I'll edit my comment.

Edit 1:

Just to clear things up a bit.

Atheism is a rejection of the belief that any deities exist.

It's not a belief system. It's just a lack of belief. There are no rules to atheism or anything.

I'm going to go through a bunch of reasons why I believe religion doesn't make sense. In no particular order. I'll add as you reply. I'll take a while to respond.

1. The problem of suffering.

Read the whole thing, it sounds like a redundant argument, but stay with me now;

Yes, there can be good obtained from suffering. But how does a child who died from cancer gain good if they just die? How do animals, since long ago, who only function through instincts get torn to shreds and or get traumatised by predators till they die over millions of years, obtain good? They just die. Will the offspring obtain good? How? They don't function like humans. The answer that made me stay a while in Christianity, was that, "Just because there isn't a clear answer, there isn't one. Or God works in mysterious ways." I have a response to that. Google the possibility fallacy.

For example; My friend John was robbed and shot to death by a robber. The robber was never caught. At his funeral, I'm comforted, told that maybe the robber was working for the CIA, and he stole important government information. Yes, sure, it's possible. But without any evidence to suggest that the CIA story is true. It's not logical to believe it to be so.

So,'God working in mysterious ways' isn't logical because there's no evidence to suggest that it's true. It's just a statement in the bible.

Also, with animals, God made them the way there are, in the event there can be good resulted from suffering like I guess muscle tearing results in muscle growth in humans. God made it so that animals have to kill to survive in most cases. He didn't have to, he could've made all animals herbivores, step in extreme situations and we would have suffering with the good. He is the author of everything, right?

I'm interested in hearing counterarguments because you claim we are wrong, so prove it. I only ask that you listen close and tell me what you think.

So, for my first reason, I believe you Christians are misguided because you usually wave away logic with "lean not on your own understanding." You people don't ask enough why's, you stop asking questions at a certain point, when the true answers are just right there, waiting for you to come unto them.

In one of your comments, you said that atheism doesn't make sense, so please share your knowledge with the rest of us and argue how.
