Religion has actually convinced people that there's an invisible man -- living in the sky -- who watches everything you do, every minute of every day. And the invisible man has a special list of ten things he does not want you to do.. And if you do any of these ten things, he has a special place, full of fire and smoke and burning and torture and anguish, where he will send you to live and suffer and burn and choke and scream and cry forever and ever 'til the end of time! ..But He loves you. -- George Carlin

"Yep we get mad at God, and walk away from him, this happens. What happens to most atheists is in fact they were once Christians, in my experience. They just kept walking, and this makes them happy, which would make me happy true, we as humans run from our problems and this allows us to hide the hurt inside us. We are happy but we have secrets that hurt too much to talk about. After i walked i came back and my secrets are no more. I am much happier now than i have ever been, and only feel sorry for those who have not experienced what i have."

He that will not reason is a bigot; he that cannot reason is a fool; he that dares not reason is a slave. -- William Drummond

I think it's funny to hear peope of religion try to talk logically about their beliefs. I didn't know there was more to that quote, thanks Spidercmb.

"You believe in a book that has talking animals, wizards, witches, demons, sticks turning into snakes, food falling from the sky, people walking on water, and all sorts of magical, absurd and primitive stories, and you say that we are the ones that need help?"

I'm glad that whatever you felt made you happy. Why not leave it at that? Why does it have to be God and not just you feeling a connection with family members? "An atheist is a man who has no invisible means of support."

Hey i feel for you man, and i'm glad that you feel fulfilled that you found your grandparents graves. However, to say that you found them doesn't constitute that there is a God. "The way to see by faith is to shut the eye of reason." - Benjamin Franklin

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there's no God.
