Atheism as a religion


Verbatim symbol of the word - do not take life without the divine and supernatural forces. The term first appeared in France. A long time, the term underwent many changes, much depended on a particular historical epoch. In an era of the Spanish Inquisition, when only one word atheist could fall into the torture chamber or the Inquisition to the fire, a rare man dared to say that he did not believe. In an era of the French Revolution, when there is rapid development of society, scientific thought is beginning to explain many things that previously were beyond human God, atheism is beginning to be perceived as usual attitude of the educated person of that era. In the XXI century has shifted consciousness. Our practical science to explain all phenomena, and we now have the freedom to choose between faith and atheism.

Many people believe that atheist - a man who completely exclude a faith, but it is not quite true. For atheists, there are certain religions that are acceptable to them - because does not have a nucleus of his belief in the supernatural - Buddhism.

The main argument of atheists - the existence of extraterrestrial and supernatural and the divine power can not prove practical. They further argue humanitarian disciplines: sociology, history, etc., to prove its truth. The most frequent arguments against a supernatural religion: there is no scientific evidence; religion - an invention of death, religion is merely a way to control the masses;

The term atheism in the beginning of its existence, used as an impish treatment to all or anything, or who contradict common beliefs or religion. Only after many years of that term has become today's value. Adopted distinguish between strong atheism (complete rejection of God and a willingness to prove their point of view); weak atheism (disbelief in the existence of a specific manifestation of God); theoretical atheism (use science as a refutation of God); anthropological atheism (human above the beginning of the divine).

The dispute believers and atheists are many centuries, each side is prepared to lead a lot of arguments to defend their arguments. Each individual is free to make their own choices based on their arguments.
