Why I am an atheist

A new question has copped up. Is it due to vanity that I do not believe in the existence of an omnipotent, omnipresent and omniscient God? Well, I would say "No". A big No. Let me recall an Indian hypocrisy. Actually, It's spread across the world but Indians are more prone to it . Our courts want a proof to make a decision, not even courts, like everyone wants to see a proof but we Indians are blind when it comes to God. I talked about my being agnostic with a few but they only gave me some cusses like "Are you mad", "have you lost it", "who objects God's presence?" and told me about various miracles  happening at some famous temples- and religious sites. And when I told them about scientific reasons behind them, they did like everyone does-Ignored it. Conversation with some friends, if I am not claiming too much in thinking them to be so-are inclined to conclude from the brief contact they have had with me, that it was too much. on my parts to deny the existence of God and that there was a certain amount of "vanity' that actuated my disbelief. Yes, I would admit that I had a certain amount of vanity and to be precise - what you call it "Ahankar' but sometimes, it's not the vanity that leads to atheism. And it isn't easy for me to be an atheist, especially in this religious country - "India".
I never said don't believe in God, if it's giving you a hope, a support, you can go on. Even I wasn't an atheist from the start. I too believed in god because my family did but as I grew up, I started realising the reality. I got to know many scientific reasons behind the things, that people see with god-connected reasons Slowly I turned agnostic and I got stucked between god is real or not. If God is just a state of mind.
I too had faced a lot of criticism for it. When you are an atheist and an Indian atheist, you are against 70 per cent of the Indian minds well, I don't have any intentions to be "against" them.
But our Indian society is not concentrating on God, it is obsessed with religions we have divided the god. Here, people fight for temples and masjids even if Quran Shareef-Muslim's religious book says God is one. So, It doesn't matter if a Hindu prays to Allah and Muslim prays to Bhagwan. Yes I know, the last line is sounding somewhat incorrect as I had placed 'Allah' to Hindu and "Bhagwan" to muslim but tell me, is it really wrong if God is one, then Bhagwan and Allah are same. Almost every granth Implies  it, if it is 'EK Onkar' in Guru granth or خدا ایک ہے in Quran. But who cares, people have to fight for their religion and this is one of the reasons that helped me being an atheist. The 2002 mob attacks in Gujarat by muslims moved me the most. People can give and take lives for their religions. Who told you to do thus? The God? No, your vanity does. And after this, being an atheist is better. I openly say I am not a Hindu even if my family is, I am not even a sikh, Muslim or Christian, I am a man firstly and an Indian secondly and that's the end. Yes, it's strange how I brought religions and secularity between talking about god's presence. but ain't I doing right, after all this is what God is for today's generation and the previous one.
We are the one, who brought God in politics, who divided the God in different religions (it wouldn't matter, if it hadn't lead to violence), so it is important to talk about god in that aspect too. Lol! God's divided in aspects too!!
As regards the origin of God, my own idea is that having realized the limitations of man, his weaknesses and shortcoming having been taken into consideration, God was brought into imaginary existence to encourage man to face boldly all the trying circumstances, to meet all dangers manfully and to check and restrain his outbursts in prosperity and affluence. God both with his private laws and parental generosity was imagined and painted in greater details. He was to serve as a deterrent factor when his fury and private laws were discussed so that man may not become a danger to society. He was to serve as a father, mother, sister and brother, friend and helpers when his parental qualifications were to be explained. So that when man be in great distress having been betrayed and deserted by all friends he may find consolation in the idea that an ever true friend was still there to help him, to support him and that He was almighty and could do anything. Really that was useful to the society in the primitive age. The idea of God is helpful to man in distress. Society has to fight out this belief as well as was fought the idol worship and the narrow conception of religion.
