An Atheist With a Religion

“I don’t believe in god and his existence”. This bitter beginning might be well enough to ruin everything that follows down the article. However, it’s my personal opinion and i have no regrets in not having faith on something that doesn’t exist. This makes me an atheist, right? Well, if you judge me as an atheist so early then you’re absolutely erroneous with your perception. I don’t believe in god doesn’t mean that I have no faith on religion either. I believe, religion and gods are entirely two different matters of beliefs; none of them exist physically together but are framed to act as one in our minds.

Religion is a pure precinct of faith. Religion is a strong force of belief to steer the human civilization in a way of peace, harmony and tolerance. This remonstration i’m making against gods of universe has nothing to do with my faith on religion. I am a Hindu by blood. I work in a church so a Christian by work. I live with my Muslim friends and celebrate their every Ramadan together, so a Muslim by bonds of brotherhood. Every human is born to explore. So why keep ourselves confined within the same principles of same gods and religions?

Vedas, Gita, Quran, Tripitak, Bible, all these holy books of whatever religions have shaped the course of humanity. The teachings of these ancient writings have a lot of essence to steer a person’s life in positive direction. I’ve always been highly influenced by the contents of these books. These philosophies never support violence, war, hatred and competition. Peace, the one and only motive of these teachings are to spread peace, love among the beautiful creatures of this beautiful earth. No religions are different by their eternal goal; what makes them look different is the path they suggest for achieving that eternal glory of peace, love and freedom.

Gods weren’t the founders of religion. They might be mere some highly enhanced humans who lived on this holy earth thousands of years ago. The concept of religion wasn’t made in a day. This has been a eternal process and is still going on. With the gradual development on consciousness of human the concept of religion grew alongside. The philosophies, teachings of religions weren’t written by gods; rather they took a proper shape and reputation due to timely amendments made according to the necessity of human civilization. A man becomes disciplined, well-mannered and discreet only because of his boundaries on religion. If the nourishment of religion hadn’t taken place in time, Homo sapiens would have been long gone in the process of evolution. Now let’s talk about those filths that bring thousands of murders, massacres every year in the name of god and religion. I don’t care if they put the name of their god as responsible for those reprehensible deeds they do, but I highly object when they assert that they kill for their religion. As i already mentioned, no religion allows murder, torture, massacre, bombings; its mere lack of consciousness and discretion in minds of some psychopath and terrorists. If they think murdering and bombing the innocents make their religion proud, then they have no rights to call themselves believers rather they are nonsensical, outlandish animals and even the big word atheist would carry high reputation before them.

The jeopardizing effect of god on humanity doesn’t end here. A god who once lived a normal human life has now become a huge source of income to some so called believers. On the grounds of temples, churches, mosques, massive white profit is being made by transacting the pure faith and beliefs of normal people. But the enormous faith on some non existing gods has made people so blind that they entirely ignore what’s going behind the curtain. So it continues, the boons of some gods and goddesses over to those playing wildly with faith and beliefs of innocent people. Those boons grow stronger every moment, disturbing the original milestone of religion, shattering the dreams of many atheists with religion.
Now its time for you people to judge me,

Am I really an Atheist?
