POPSWhy I am an atheist - Jake I've often been accused of "being angry with god" by fatheists, but that accusation could hardly be further from the truth. My anger stems from dishonesty, delusion and ignorance that is foisted onto people by religious supporters. Since god is not real, its irrational to claim you are angry with an imaginary being. No more rational than being angry, with say, Homer Simpson, for something you may have seen in one if the Simpson's episodes. The anger would actually be focused at the producers of the show. So yes, I am angry at the way religious establishments lie to people, encourage ignorance and dishonesty and facilitate the continued existence of a delusion. But angry at god? There's nothing there to be angry with.
