Transcribe →The Atheist's Discontent
Nov 21, 202300:07:34Tap to summarizeHuman beings have a natural curiosity about the origins of existence, and many have indeed become believers of religious doctrines when trying to answer life’s biggest questions. Those who believe in God tend to lead more content lives because they satiate such a natural curiosity, whereas atheists tend to be more discontent because they do not believe there is a God overseeing them. Superstition can trigger all sorts of beliefs, and such beliefs can fulfil some of the human’s emotional needs. Atheists are left to suffer in their lack of superstition as a result.
