Atheist parents comfort children about death without talk of God or heaven

25. Perhaps You Feel That

those of the christian faith posess a far superior morality than do we atheists. If that is indeed the case, and the basis for your question, then I shall be remiss to not remind you of a couple of christians with really high morals.......Adolf Hitler and Timothy McVeigh.

I so do hate to burst your bubble, but one's morality comes from within, not from any external source. If you really do believe that hiding behind a house of worship somehow bestows moral values onto you, then you have very much left to learn about this thing that we call life.

It is my opinion that, just from this briefest of conversations, that you are in dire need of some help with your doubts and insecurities. I promise you that it is perfectly fine to have doubts. It is perfectly fine to ask honest questions. And above all, it is perfectly fine to accept facts and truths over myths and supersticions. The very fact that you felt the need to ask such a question is proof positive of your doubts and curiosities. I also promise you that no person need seek the definition of morality from someone else. Each and every person has those answers buried deep inside their being. Trying to live up to the expectations of others will always be a losing battle. Once you come to terms with who you really are and accept that for what it is, then others will accept you just as you are. You need not work at being something other than what you truly are. Ask yourself the hard questions instead of seeking the answers from someone else. When you get it all figured out, life will be much more enjoyable.
