I am atheist because I have no reason to be...
I am atheist because I don't even understand
What the hell I'm writing at this time...
I am atheist because I'm tired...
I am an atheist because of so many other things...
I am atheist because 1 + 1 = 2...
I am atheist because I don't believe in science...

I am atheist because I don't appear to be one...
I am atheist because I also go to church and pray...
I am atheist because I love it...
I am atheist because I hate it...
I am atheist because I'm repressed...
I am atheist because I'm free...

*Mr. Gerry Lanuza was my Social Science II (western philosophy)
professor in teh University of the Philippines, Diliman. I took his class
during the summer of 1999. All you guys in Catholic schools with
sexually-repressed nuns for teachers... eat your heart out.
