Atheist Contributor

I was a theist for most of my life. The concept of atheism was so far removed from my frame of reference that I never even imagined I would become one.

That was until someone near me told me he was not a believer anymore. The mere thought was too unbearable for me. But as with any little seed, it confirmed the doubts I had about my beliefs. Although I always pretended to be a rock solid Christian, there always were nagging questions that never went away. I would just shut it out. I was born again, baptized twice, read my Bible, prayed every day, attended church twice a Sunday, went to Bible study during the week. I was safe.

But not safe from the doubts that kept hindering me, much like the thorn in Paul's flesh.

Once the door of the possibility of atheism opened, it became a floodgate. I could not stop reading about it. I was like a sponge. I got more answers than what I ever hoped for, more affirmations I thought were possible. All of a sudden I felt a wonderful relief, as if a mountain was lifted from my shoulders. The truth of atheism really made me free.
