Ask An Atheist Day Round Two
Hello everybody. Today is national Ask an Atheist Day. After last years successful turn out, I've decided to create the "Ask an Atheist" challenge. This is a chance to get to know us atheists and have an understanding from one another. Anyone is free to ask questions regarding faith and our lack of faith. Fellow atheists here on Prose are free to help answer questions and enter if they choose to. As a reminder, this is a friendly challenge, so let's be respectful to one another. Let's get started. I'm an atheist. Ask me anything.

Finally, A Place For My Questions!

First, @Harry_Situation, thank you for creating this! I'm a Christian of very strong faith, and I've always been curious about atheistic belief, but I've never had a safe place to ask about it. So, um, I guess I'll just fire off my questions?

Even if you don't believe in God, do you think humans have souls?

Where do you think music comes from, and why does it affect us as people so powerfully?

Is atheism a religion? Because you have faith that God doesn't exist?

Don't you want there to be something after death?

Do you believe that humans are inherently inclined to do good, or to do evil?

Do you think that everyone should be an atheist? Do you think faith gets in the way of life?

How do you explain recorded miracles?

Why is the earth so perfectly suited for life, if there wasn't a Creator?

Do you ever doubt your atheism, or are you confident?

What is it about faith in a God that turns you away? Why don't you want to believe?

Please don't feel compelled to answer all of these, I know it's sort of a lot. If you're still reading, though, thank you! I'm super grateful for this, I'm just so curious, and look forwards to any answers you feel inclined to give! Hope you all have a wonderful day :)
