Atheism is a new phenomena in the history of mankind and

cannot be said to be natural. It is totally against the pure

instinct of man, not to believe in a supernatural being - for

this would only be replacing the idea of ‘God’ (the intelligent

Force), with ‘nature’ (an unknown entity without any will nor

intelligence, yet said to be the cause) capable of creating

many amazing things in this universe !

Historically, atheism or agnosticism came about because of rejection of certain

absurd myths attributed to God, not an absolute rejection of the idea of God.
