On Atheism (Blog Entry by dag)
Just the other day I was watching a space shuttle launch and got this sickening feeling. As the shuttle got higher and higher, this loneliness and insignificance started creeping through me. Thinking about the people on the ship that were so small compared to the vastness of space they were entering, triggered something inside me. I can't really explain it, but the feeling lasted until I fell asleep that night. I have never felt that way before, nor do I want to again. Just for a little while, I started thinking how nice it would be to believe in a god right now. At minimum, it would at least give me some comfort in thinking somebody was there when I was feeling so lonely.
Now I look back and have been thinking about it. Would that actually make me feel better(believing in a god)? Short-term, I think it probably would have. But in the long run, I think being honest to myself by trying to understand why I felt that way, is much more healthy. Having a god would just give me comfort so I can feel better, without an understanding of why I was feeling that way. Making myself mentally lazy would not help me. In effect, I think God is a placebo, and doesn't do anything but make you think you are OK. He doesn't actually fix anything. It's just the idea of a warm cozy blanket on a cold winter night, not an actual blanket.
I hope that made sense, I am up way too late.
