What is an Atheist?
As everyone else has said: one who does not believe in God, supernatural forces, a higher power, or whatever else you want to call it.
So, what are you then?
I am an atheist. I want to believe in a higher power because, to be honest, such a thing would give me great comfort. However, I can't force myself to believe in such a presence when all I ever see is sadness. I've never felt the presence of a God, so how can I believe in him/her?
What else do you believe?
I believe in anything I've experienced.
What do you think happens when you die?
It's already been stated many times.
If there is nothing beyond your lifespan, what is your motivation?
My motivation is the same as any other normal person's motivation: be happy, make my friends and family happy, and have lots of sex.
How can you have morals when you don't believe in anything?
Even if I did believe in God, it wouldn't be his guidelines and morals that I would follow. If it were, all I would have to do is repent before I do right? I follow the morals set forth by the laws of whatever country I may be living in. If it keeps me out of prison, then I will probably do it.
If you don't have any morals, how can you be trusted?
I have morals. But, then again, how can you trust me?
