Would it be better for you if you had been an atheist?
From what I understand of Muslim theology I would be damned along with all the other infidels such as Christians, Buddhists, etc.
Needless to say, I don't lose any sleep over this :-)
What has always perplexed me about atheists is that they base this ‘identification’ on the fact that they DON’T believe something..
I don’t believe in Bigfoot. Yet, I don’t have a dire need to be accepted by society and identified for this.
The difference is clear though: While I do NOT believe in Bigfoot, Sasquatch, or whatever one may choose to call him, I have NO problem with those who DO believe and whatever THEY choose to do according to their belief.
