I'll just stick to my banishings and my Gnostic Eucharist, thanks.

Peace,

Question... If you believe there is no God why would you be kind to people, what is your reason to, what is your motivation, what tells you to be kind if there is no God saying to be?

This is not a question posed to incite or ridicule, just a question I have always wondered in the back of my mind when ever Atheism was discussed! Be adult about it please and just answer not attack the statement.

Thanks!

This is a strange question. Would you not be kind if you thought there is no god ? If so, WHY ? There are religious and non-religious people that carry kindness in their nature. It is often appearant at a young age until some are changed through the cruelty of others.

We non-believers can be easily kind without the promise of reward or condemnation of hell. I think this makes us very sincere and unselfish in fact.

I think you need to hang around with some atheists for a while and you will see what a kind,honest and caring bunch of folks they often are.

You may hear more often statements like these when in need: "What can i do to help you ?" instead of "I'm so sorry to hear that, I'll be praying for you dear."
