Atheism is the shadow or dark side of the highest perception
of God. Every formula we frame about God, though always true as a
symbol, becomes false when we accept it as a sufficient formula.
The Atheist and Agnostic come to remind us of our error.
 Sri
Aurobindo,
Thoughts and Aphorisms, Bhakti, 538 |
Atheism means the denial of an external 
God
or any sort of higher creative power. Although usually associated
with 
Materialism,
it
doesn't have to mean the same. For example, Eastern
philosophies such as Samkhya
and Buddhism
refer to spiritual realities, but not of a God or "Creator". But
generally, Atheism and Materialism are synonymous. Quite a few intelligent
people, disgusted by the intellectual absurdities and the moral hypocrisy
of the various religions,
take
refuge in Atheism
