Does this explain why religious people pick religious answers and atheist pick atheist answers?

I have stated this on here before so I am repeating myself but if there was no God who created us, and we are just the chance product of evolutionary processes, as atheists believe, then there is no genuine uniqueness for humanity. We are no more important than a barnyard animal.

I didn't read all of that.. Couldn't really be bothered to read it all. I think I got this gist of it. I am an atheist, and as an atheist I do not say there is no deity, and I do not say there is no after-life.

Rather, I say there is no good reason to believe in them and the likelihood of them existing is so ridiculously small that it should be considered insanity to believe it with the zeal of some people. When I wasn't as versed as I was before, I had rather crude reasons for being an atheist.. Though I suppose I was more agnostic as I did pray for certain things. When I used to get stomach cramps, I used to say "please God" over and over and over again and it actually helped, with the pain going away as long as I kept saying it.

When I became more questioning, I started saying random things like "Chicken dinner" over and over again. This also worked. It led me to think that the reason this alleviated pain was not a God answering my prayers, rather the movement of my diaphragm stimulated my stomach in some way as to remove the pain.

I never bothered to look into it further than this, but it's just a little inclination (for me) that there's just as much reason to believe in an almighty chicken dinner in the sky as a God. I've gone a little off track here, and I apologise, but ultimately; the probability of an afterlife is so pathetically small that it's insane to believe in it.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
