Article- Atheist Turns Atheist

A theist turns atheist

Dalip Singh Wasan, Advocate.

A child is told that we all have been created by God who is the supreme power and therefore, first of all we all believe in the existence of God. We all have been told that the creator of this universe is God and we all have come on this earth when He so desired and we all go back when he passes orders of our death. We die as per His directions and we have also been told that we live a life which could be good for us or could be bad for us and we live on because it is also the will of God. But still most of us at times, start disbelieving in the existence of God and at times we believe that he exists and is controlling the world. Most of us are believing in the existence of God only because we are under a fear that we may not be condemned to another mode of life which could be worse from the present life.

As far as I am concerned, I start disbelieving in the existence of God when I have a look on the followings:-

(1) When I notice that some people are rich and some are poor. I want that all should have been equally placed in this world because a father who is so powerful should not have discriminated with a large number of His sons and daughters.

(2) When I see a beautiful woman, a handsome man and at the same time I have a look on a ugly person.

(3) I am not in a position to bear when I notice a physically crippled person.

(4) I am not tolerating that one man is begging and the other man is scolding upon him.

(5) I am not bearing when a woman is carrying dowry as a licence to enter the house of her in laws fearing that without this dowry she would be turned out from the house of her in laws or they shall be killing her or they shall be creating such situations under which she would be committing suicide.

(6) I am not tolerating when this world is divided on the basis of countries, on the basis of men and women, on the basis of rich and poor, on the basis of religions, on the basis of castes and when one group is turning to terrorism and one group is utilizing power to teach them a lesson and both are actually killing innocent people.

(7) I am not in position to bear when I see that some people are starving and some are dying because of overeating.

(8) I am not in a position to bear that some are living a long life and some die while they are just children, just young and when they have not seen this world.

(9) I am not tolerating that this woman has been made weak and this man has been made strong and that is the reason this world has turned man-ruled society and this woman lives a life of slaves.

(10) I am not in a position to tolerate when I notice that one set of people are playing with money and another set of people are toiling for money and even then they are not getting money even for bear living.

(11) I am not in a position to bear that one set of people are setting aside their rags and another set of people are obliged to wear those rags.

(12) I am not in a position when some people are taking away the wealth created by the other set of people through bribes, through scams, scandals, muddles, commissions, sale of jobs, sale of licenses, sale of quotas and the like.

(13) I am not in a position to bear when I notice small children begging, collecting valuables from the garbage, hungry, wearing rags, not going to schools because their parents are not in a position to bear the cost of education, they are ill and weak and die earlier than their counter parts.

(14) I am not tolerating when I notice that some people are ill, have got long term diseases, are lying on beds for years together and some are hale and healthy.

(15) I am not tolerating that one set of people have turned drug addicts, drunkards, opium eaters or the like and they are committing all types of crimes just to have money for the purchase of these items without which they cannot live.

(16) I am not in a position to believe in those who had divided this world in different religions and then set these sets at war against each other.

(17) I start weeping when I see that history of this man is written with blood of this man and at all the times he had been fighting against each other.

(18) I am not tolerating when I see that young people who want to work do not get work opportunities and are wandering as unemployed.

(19) I am not tolerating when we say that this mankind is the children of God and they all belong to one family, but everywhere they are divided and are standing as enemies of each other.

(20) I am not tolerating all this leg-pulling in this world. No one is happy over the victory of another.

(21) I am not tolerating this two faced policy of this man. When he is successful, he starts telling about his own hard work and resources and when he fails, he starts condemning his luck.

There are more instances which could not enumerated here because of shortage of space when I start disbelieving in the existence of God and therefore, I have come to understand that more and more people shall be joining me and there will be a time when all shall turn atheists.
