In dwelling, live close to the ground. In thinking, keep to the simple. In conflict, be fair and generous. In governing, don't try to control. In work, do what you enjoy. In family life, be completely present.

some people regard their books significant in their lives, but for most atheists it is little more than literature at best... ( ancient literature mixed with mythology ) :]

religion is characterized by the experience of “religious feelings” like awe, a sense of mystery, adoration, and even guilt... Atheism, don't have those.. they are neither promoted nor discouraged by Atheism itself.. :]

When I look at the stars I feel nothing. When I hear baby cries, I feel nothing, When I watch children play I feel nothing. When I make love, I feel nothing. Atheism is like this as I see it but I feel nothing about it.

The mystical is not how the world is, but that it is.

We are missing out a whole lot on life if we don't recognize the "spiritual" dimension of our existence. Di ba atheism as a worldview don't leave room for the "spiritual" or the supernatural?

Someone once said that an atheist can't live life happily and remain consistent with his view at the same time.

The feelings of LOVE can certainly be wonderful, and they are created in our bodies by hormones.. One of these is oxytocin, which is produced during *** and in breastfeeding women.. It acts as a neurotransmitter in the brain and can create strong feelings of attachment and love..

Argument from love...
