MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 Don't you bother giving me the benefit of the doubt. I am seriousYou seriously expect me to be able to prove God?Oh dear... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 You have no proof do you, only faith.Ok - let's be serious for a moment. I can no more prove God than you can disprove him. I don't need to prove and you don't need to disprove.That much is screamingly obvious. Hence my comment regarding you being serious - or not.

I don't need to prove and you don't need to disprove.That much is screamingly obvious. Hence my comment regarding you being serious - or not.Ok we are in agreement. I cannot prove that god does not exist but I see no proof that he does. You believe something for which you have no proof, is that not just a wee bit silly ?

I don't need to prove and you don't need to disprove.That much is screamingly obvious. Hence my comment regarding you being serious - or not.Actually, the onus is on the believers to prove the existance of God. After all, its them who keep rabbiting on about him... In the meantime, as Atheists, all we can do is apply logic and point 'n' laugh... Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But.. he said something that has stuck with me.. Basically.."The fact that we are here...."Hence my .1% Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The catalysts of "New Atheism"???Probably.I was already a member but they've done wonders for rational thought, especially in the God fearing USA.That took guts. (although as we've seen with Whyte, people will risk the wrath of the public if their bank balance increases by a few zero's lol)Hat off to them, though. Hitchens and Dawkins, that is.

MKGER 138 Posted April 28, 2012 Share Posted April 28, 2012 So you don't understand something therefore an invisible man in the sky did it?

After all, some have logic on their side. The thing about Atheists being 99% sure is that if it was any lower would that person still be an Atheist? If it was 87.32 i'd say they were Agnostic.And if it was 44%, well, that would be them leaning more towards the existence of a God... which means they defo aint no Atheist, lol.Think about it.
