Default Re: Atheism vs. Antitheism

[ QUOTE ]
No, I wouldn't say so. Most atheists are what I'd call apatheist. Like me. I really don't care, and if I go to heaven or end up as carbon, nitrogen and so on in the food chain, it's all okay by me. And you can believe what you like, as long as you don't hurt anyone else.

This pretty sums up my attitude towards my own "spirituality" as well. The idea that you need organized religion in order to get to "heaven" is silly to me. If heaven exists, I believe that I'm more likely to get there by living a moral life (ie. by not harming others with my actions), rather than by following a bunch of arbitrary rules.

On the other hand, as others have stated, I wouldn't really care about those who delude themselves by following organized religon, if it wasn't for the fact that they're ruining our society with their backwards attitudes.
