When I use to be an atheist I did not celebrate it, but lived with it's meaninglessness because I believed it to be the bottom line truth. I envied those who were opiated by their pink fluffy beliefs. I wished that I could be so naive as to believe because than I too would feel something else than the meaninglessness of merely believing that all that existed was the material. When I came to God it was for the love of truth and found life to be all together different and living. Without trying to maintain this artificially it has lasted for over 30 years. God's presence has never failed me. I thank Him for leading me to understand that He is the truth.

I was also a doubter for what seemed like a long time, although I’d say I was agnostic during this period. Once I found God, faced the fact that I was a sinner, and accepted that the only thing that would save me was the sacrifice made by Jesus on the cross, my life improved dramatically. I know a few atheists, and they’re constantly miserable, bitter, and self-serving. Looking at this article, I’d say rot runs in its deepest form among the young. What’s being done at college campuses all over the country is truly diabolical.
