Atheist tell me what you gain when became an atheist and what you lose when believe?

Are we suppose to gain and lose when we believe in things? All I care about is what makes sense, that's why I'm an atheist.

I gained the ability of discernment and logical thinking when I left my religion.

"[B]e in safe side this is a hell man it is no jock keep the pride away and run towered God before too late."

And yet another version of Pascal's Wager. Way to go.

I gain the ability to think for myself and not have to just have faith in a god or a church or a book. When I believe, I lose that ability for free thought, and I become imprisoned by a search and struggle for "blamelessness and righteousness before God" that hinders my mind from thinking the thoughts that have the power to completely overturn the religion.

I...I don't understand what you're trying to ask. It doesn't make any sense.

Are you asking what I gain? Nothing. I gain nothing. That's the whole POINT. We find no reason for belief; we don't CHOOSE to be atheist; we just can't help it. Logic leads us to believe that there is no God. It's not active on our part. It just HAPPENS.

As for the rest of the wall of religious text, I didn't really read it, but if you're religious, rock on. I have nothing against you being religious.

Look, almost every religion out there states that something unpleasant happens to the nonbelievers. Therefore, are you really increasing the odds of you being right by that much? Certainly not enough to waste ANY time on it, just to save yourself in the end.

So out of curiosity, how do you know you are going to paradise, and not the great fire? How do you know you are right, and some small tribe from the Philippines that believes in the rain god is wrong? What makes you so sure that you are in the right religion?

It's not about losing or gaining anything.

What do you gain by not believing in Christianity? Judaism? Mayan gods?

There's not much difference as us not agreeing with whatever religion you are.

What if Jesus/God is the true god, huh? Then you're screwed.

The only difference is that Atheists eliminate ONE more god than you do.

Gain: an uncluttered mind capable of objectively trying to understand aspects of nature and other matters.

Lose: a confusing, groundless intellectual obstruction that hinders rational thought and ability to understand nature and other matters.

Gain- Rationalism

Loss- Enlightenment

What are you trying to say, that God has a running back play for him? This isn't foot ball (Americano), so get it together! This is CHESS!
