Atheism is not necessarily a reasoned position. It is simply a lack of belief in deities.With all do respect, atheism does not make much sense to me. It is unreasonable to me. That is why I am not an atheist.
Do you think belief is a conscious choice?
Perhaps you have confused "skeptical" with "close-minded" in this context.I tend to be skeptical when people tell me things like matter creates mind and morality and things like "the universe has always existed" or things like " Jesus never lived".
The above are a few examples. There are more.
You are not using reason to evaluate those claims, are you?I cannot accept those claims as "reasonable".
But you have not determined your own destiny. You have only convinced yourself of what you wish to be true. In the absence of evidence to the contrary, you are in the same boat as the atheists.If you can then great for you. If irrationality is the price i have to pay for "the freedom to determine my own destiny" which incidentally is something that an atheist like Krauss would deny I even possess, then you can keep it.
