Just about anything in and out of this world can be worshiped – even Bacon! Yeah, that’s right. One of the guys I follow on Twitter posted a link to WorshipBacon.com and man it made me laugh. The site basically is about bacon worship and comes completed with a church, a holy book and a hymn.

If God performs miracles, I wouldn’t have sent my wife to the hospital for a minor surgery. Many have prayed for her and yet no healing came. Yep, she’s a believer and I’m not. It was obvious that no miracle was coming.

One of the many “quick answers” I get when telling Christians that I don’t believe in God is this:
“How would you explain all the miracles in the world?”

Think about this… Can God create a rock so heavy that he cannot lift it?
You might have already encountered this question before and you may already have your answers to this but kindly allow me to use this question to prove that an Absolutely Omnipotent God CANNOT Exist. Note that I used the word “Absolutely” so as to avoid other definitions of omnipotence. I say this because I have encountered definitions of the word that describes omnipotence as merely the capability to do anything that the omnipotent being wishes.

I’m an atheist, my wife’s a Christian and my kids are still young for me to say what they will be when they grow up but this is not about our differences in belief. Recently, a wife posted a comment on one of my Squidoo lenses asking for advise.

A few years ago when I was still a Christian, I spent a lot of my time sharing Christianity to anyone whenever I find the opportunity to do so. Sometimes, I even go as far as “creating the opportunity” just so I can share what I think was the best news a man could ever receive.

To become an atheist is as easy as looking at the hard evidence and believing in what you see. My path from theism to atheism was Christian -> Agnostic – Atheist. I had my doubts, then I tried to play safe, then I finally accepted the truth that there is no god and religion is all nonsense. Soon, I came into the dilemma of whether I should tell the world that I’m an atheist.
