The Atheist’s Nine Propositions
(an alternative to religious dogma)
•There is more to moral behavior than mindlessly following rules.
•Be especially skeptical of positive claims.
•If you want your life to have some sort of meaning, it's up to you to find it.
•Search for what is true, even if it makes you uncomfortable.
•Make the most of your life, as it's probably the only one you'll have.
•It's no good relying on some external power to change you; you must change yourself.
•Just because something's popular doesn't mean it's good.
•If you must assume something, assume something easy to test.
•Don't believe things just because you want them to be true.
