Every position one takes is a reflection of an ideology, Sanjay. When you say “I think the existence of God is a farcical idea. But I am not an atheist. I simply don’t care about God.” — that is also an ideology. Not having an ideology is also an ideology. 🙂

Hi sanjay ,
I completely agree with u on this. I don’t even remember since when I lost faith in god, but as long as I remember I never took god’s name when I was happy or sad or achieved some in life. But as I grew up my belief in non-esixstence of god grew stronger. Though I always like mythologies (ramayan, mahabharth) and reading about dharama & karma. I still don’t know whether i am a atheist or not, but I am firm believer of karma. I used to discuss lot of things about god, religion, dharam and interpretation of such things in details at my college time for hours with my believer friends :).

In reply to Hal Helmboldt. Hal your Nietzsche and dog analogy makes no sense. Your example of infact is 'in fact' another example of use of semantics. I have not said that not all atheists are religious fanatics. Thats your interpretation again of people who do not believe in the existence of God. Atheists usually like to appropriate these people as their own. It can be hard for Atheists ( and believers) to understand that there are those who don't believe in God but are not Atheists. To be an Atheist is to hold a position. Its an ideology all the same. Atheists want the numbers on their side. Hichens is a Good example .
