Psychology of Atheism

Human psyche is convenience-oriented without bothering for logical rightness. This has been exploited by each propounder of religions and theism. This evolved many faiths in human society which are, undoubtedly, very popular among common people all over the globe. This was an initial development in social sciences which more or less supported theism as a consequence natural human psyche.


Exploitations of weak by the strong was also considered beastly attribute. Since humans too originated from their beastly past through civilized overtures over the time, beastliness is considered as a natural attribute ignoring claim of civilization to be a more human behavior. Indeed, human civilization and nature stand face to face against each other in this respect. Modern humans can not afford to be natural in any way, in-stead they have to be civilized.


Evolution of civilizations also included prevention of exploitations of the weak by the strong to gradually tame the beastliness of early humans. Civilization is not convenience-oriented but prefers to be discipline-oriented, whether convenient or not. Thus civilization works against convenience-oriented human psyche also. In such a confrontation of convenience and discipline, humans tend to slide towards conveniences ignoring their civilized developments. This tendency is also being exploited by theists for popularizing their viewpoints.


Although, theism is based on psychological exploitation, no theist is willing to accept this fact in public, even though most of them accept it in private. In public, they also preach prevention of exploitations of the weak by the strong, but still keep on working to exploit the psychological weakness of human mind due to its genetic beastliness wherein exploitation was rampant in its historical past.


Atheism is also natural as no infant takes birth with a religious leaning or as a subscriber to theism. It is the society which colors his/her conscience with religious fervor and inscribes in his/her brain seeds of theism. This is also a sort of exploitation of an innocent mind.


Exploitation is a beastly culture rampant in the natural world, while humans through civilized developments of their minds and cultures have been opposing exploitation of all sorts. Free developments of minds have always been targeted by right thinking people all over the globe since times immemorial. Such a free thinking frees individuals and societies from bondages of God and religions and make them atheists, the true human-beings.


Developments of physical sciences also impresses on human minds to think, get convinced through logic, and then follow their consciences. These sciences also disapprove existence of any God or other deities and need of having any faith in these misconceptions gripping the non-thinking irrational humanity.


Philosophically also, all those who thought deeply on the issue reached the conclusion that there is no need of any imagination or concept of god for humanity to move on its path of higher and higher civilization. Examples of such thinkers and their philosophies are numerous - secular humanists, Humeans, Nietzschean nihilists, Marxists, Madalyn Murray O'Hairists, Russellites, Chomskyites, French existentialists like Camus or Sartre, logical positivists, utilitarians like Mill or Singer, New Atheists, etc.Atheist Universe: The Thinking Person's Answer to Christian Fundamentalism



To say that atheism has evolved through constructions of few individuals in the world is false. On the contrary, theism is a construction of nasty human minds to exploit the innocent minds of future generations in their infancies. Atheism is pure and natural.
