Religion & Spirituality > Atheism & Agnosticism Why Atheists are right

1 of 21

Why should we believe that there is some omnipotent power in the universe to guide us and prevent serious catastrophe? As a diehard existentialist fan, finding solace in Kafka's metamorphosis and Camus' Myth of Sisyphus and The Stranger, it is hard for me to accept in the idea of a divine power.
