Essays

Being an atheist, a nonbeliever, can be very difficult. We abandon the teachings of the religious society around us, perhaps that given us by beloved parents or teachers. As a result we are forced to find our own ways of dealing with life. How shall we meet and greet tragedy, or joy? What is right and wrong? What is it that we believe, and how are we to act on it? Hopefully these essays (and all of those to follow) will help atheists to cope with the world we find ourselves in. And maybe any theists that read these words will understand a little bit better what life is like on the other side. As always, be aware that I claim no authority other than that of life and thought. Please send any comments or suggestions on my work to [email protected], or visit my guestbook. Enjoy!
