The good folks over at Proud Atheist came up with a list of ten advantages to being an atheist. I thought it was great, so I re-post it here for your amusement:
1. Be an atheist and save 10% by not attending or donating to a church. There are additional savings for not buying expensive clothes and vehicles to impress the other church members.
2. As an atheist you are no longer obligated to say “God bless you” to someone who sneezes.
3. As an atheist you can sleep in on Sunday mornings.
4. An atheist is not required to confess to, or kiss the ring of any Catholic clergymen.
5. An atheist can listen to any music, read any book or listen to any speaker without worrying about being excommunicated or shunned.
6. An atheist can eat fish, shellfish, pork or anything he/she desires without sin or violation to dietary laws.
7. An atheist can determine what is right or wrong for themselves within the limits of human law and their own conscience.
8. An atheist does not need to pray or read books about atheism to retain his/her stance. Atheism requires no brainwashing nor constant indoctrination.
9. A child of an atheist does not usually get molested by priests, youth ministers or other religious leaders.
10. An atheist is not required to use titles when addressing his/her fellow non-believers, such as “Brother Bob”, “Pastor Tim”, or “Sister Jill”.
