" I believe in a God that has given me a purpose. I have never believed in any other type of deity. " I do NOT think that I have a god or god-given ability to control me or anything else. I am just an atheist and I have no god. "I have no religion, I don't believe anything, I have a very good idea about the world, I don't believe that there is any other way of life, and my religion is a lie. " I have a good sense that I'm doing the right thing and I'm just a person with an opinion.
I am also a member of a group that promotes the use of the Bible in all of my daily activities and in the scriptures. I have a lot of faith that I will get the message out and I believe that it will happen in a matter of months or years, but the message I am receiving has been completely lost on me and my family.
I have been told to do the Bible study and that it will not change my life.
My family members have said that I have a very good idea and I am a person that will change the way I view the Bible in the long term. I do believe in God, I have an opinion and my family and friends will see the results of my beliefs and they will follow my teachings.
I believe I have the potential to become a true spiritual leader in my community. "
I am not going anywhere and am not a "sick and tired old guy". " I believe in the Lord, the only true way of life. I have never believed that there was an eternal, unchangeable God, I believe in a Creator that created me to live by the commandments of the Lord.
" I do not believe in any form of magic. I have never had a problem with anything I did in life or in any way. " I do believe that the universe is a collection of all things, I believe that God created the universe to help mankind to live a better life and to do what is right, but I have no idea what that means for the world.

From personal experience, I became disappointed with organized religion decades ago until a friend introduced me to the philosophy of the teachings of Echotruth as an alternative to organized religion. Its beliefs and values differ from traditional organized religion in that its teachings are based upon universal truth. It teaches one to find the truth for themselves and not via any external deity. Its teachings have made a powerful personal impact on my life as well as those of my close friends and family. Unlike organized religion, it avoids bias against any other belief systems. Hope you find this of value and it answers your question.
