There Is No God « Penn Jillette. Audio Player I believe that there is no God. I’m beyond atheism. Atheism is not believing in God. Not believing in God is easy — you can’t prove a negative, so there’s no work to do.

You can’t prove that there isn’t an elephant inside the trunk of my car. So, anyone with a love for truth outside of herself has to start with no belief in God and then look for evidence of God. But, this “This I Believe” thing seems to demand something more personal, some leap of faith that helps one see life’s big picture, some rules to live by.

Having taken that step, it informs every moment of my life. Believing there’s no God means I can’t really be forgiven except by kindness and faulty memories. Believing there’s no God stops me from being solipsistic. Believing there is no God gives me more room for belief in family, people, love, truth, beauty, sex, Jell-O and all the other things I can prove and that make this life the best life I will ever have.
