Atheists' "Ten Commandments"
hi everyone! so if you weren't aware, there was a " 10 Atheists' Commandments contest" for athiests to write their own "rules." because I am on winter break, I just finished a religion course at my college and this post definitely peaked my interest and I was pleasantly surprised! all of the following "commandments" are statements I also believe in, and here's why: ~ be open-minded and be willing to alter your beliefs with new evidence if science and life has taught you anything over the course of history, it is that things change. being narrow minded will get you nowhere, especially if you are proven wrong. being open-minded doesn't make you any less strong in your beliefs, it just means you are mature enough to know that you can be wrong. ~ strive to understand what is most likely to be true, not to believe what you wish to be true though this might not be the best "rule" concerning religion, it is a good rule for life.
