Dec 23 2012: Gratitude? Will any mother will have it after death of her son? Will any businessman will have after going bankrupt? There are numerous such situations when we can't expect people to have gratitude.
When good things happen the ones who believe in God, are grateful to God. But what about an atheist? He will be happy within himself.
When things go bad the atheist will blame situations, surrounding, people or any other possible thing. God believers will pray or will go at holy places.
For me gratitude is being thankful to whatever good happened. And you should be grateful to those who made good things happen for you, no matter, if its God or human.
