But it just doesn't work for me. If it works for you great, run with it. My battle cry would be shorter, it would just be "NO KING". That's what works for me. That's how I'm happy. A lot of adult conversions talk about a moment of clarity, of everything being really confusing and then suddenly clicking into place, of being lost and then finally figuring out their place in the world. That exact same thing happened to me, but instead of it all being triggered by accepting God into my life it was all triggered when I kicked Him out. That's when the world finally made sense for me. This is why I don't harrangue the believers, I didn't become an atheist in an act of rebellion, I did it because it was the answer for me. But I understand that we can't all have the same answer, whatever answer works for you is the one you should use.

But what if I served the moon-god, and he told me to exterminate all athiests like yourself?

What would happen then to your 'you do your thing, I'll do mine' fallacy?

If there is no God, why would it be wrong for me to exterminate you?

After all, I'm just doing my thing, right?
