Belief: Atheist and existential and moral nihilist.
Why?: I had been raised for the majority of my life as a Catholic, learning in school the fundamentals of the religion as well as other religions. At the time of 18, I was still believing though I was incredibly skeptic. It was also around this time that my exposure to the internet increased and I begin discussing varying beliefs with others and was taking classes in college that discussed various philosophies and doing my own research as well to find my own answers. Eventually I came to the point where I came to the logical conclusion there is no intrinsic purpose to life, all actions done are without worth, there is no afterlife, no deity, no objective meaning to existence. Unlike the existentialists though, I see no reason to try to assign your own subjective meaning of worth to life as well.
