Atheism part two

Atheism is not a belief that there is no God—it is the absence of belief in God. I am an atheist not because I am 100% sure that there is no God—how does one prove the negative anyway?—but because I see as little evidence around me for God as for flying fairies or invisible spiritual power. I’m open to evidence that any of those exist, but in the absence of such evidence, I will not believe in them.

God didn't create people, but you, religious people, created God in an effort to explain your fears, the unknown, the fear of death and a promised life after death, you fear death, you people need someone to take care of you, someone to protect you when you feel weak, the sum of what we don't know.. God is a creature of human thinking: you people created God because you needed something to believe in..

Look at it.. you people created Judaism, Christianity and finally Islam.. These religions preach the same lie, but they are full of contradictions.. you could not even agree on one religion or sect! Human nature at its best!

Religion is an idea.. worshiping something, a "super power", is a human need. Look at your history, you started worshiping small statuettes, then you evolved into worshiping one "super power": the sun (Akhenaten), then the idea of one almighty God came.. then version one of monotheism, Judaism, appeared, then a new upgraded version took control, finally appeared with Islam.. and who knows what is going appear next. Evolutions applies to human nature also, it applies to religion.
