Why are you an Atheist?
As a Christian, I've talked to a lot of people who have made certain assumptions about why I believe what I believe. Without going into details, I would like to say that this has left me feeling misrepresented, misunderstood, and most of all, irritated. So in an effort to keep from doing the same to the people who tend to be the most at odds with my beliefs, I have a question.
Why are you an Atheist?
I don't ask out of some pompous desire to convert you. I don't intend to try to do that here. I just want to avoid causing undue irritation and keep from insulting people.
