Atheist/non-religious thread

[CarpCharacin]

Something is completely worthless as evidence if only the most biased individuals see it as evidence.

unless you were muslim. there is waaay too much islamophobia in the US

Good point, but even then I don't see a lot of people (or even pop culture) acting this way towards them

No one will read it
I DISAGREE
And if it fails
BURR THATS WHY WE NEED IT
The constitution's a mess
SO IT NEEDS AMENDMENTS
It's full of contradictions
SO IS INDEPENDENCE
We have to start somewhere
NO NO WAY
You're making a mistake

Good night
Hey
What are you waiting for?
What do you stall for?

We won the war
What was it all for?
Do you support this constitution?

hey @BigBlueHen53 - a while back (don't want to find the post) you answered my question about the bible and said that it foretold the future with a story with Mesopotamia or the like. Further question- was the bible written before foretold events happened, or did it tell the story of a prophecy coming true?

I love that thing, I’m stealing it

What if earth were created by a God-like being but one who used scientific principles and cause/ reaction and evolution, adaptation and survival of the fittest to do it? Not in 7 days obviously. Over millions of years.

That, would make sense to me

 

[ButtonHoarder]

If it's just bible verses, please just save everyone time and don't. Those are just as "true" as a sentence from the story I'm writing

What story are you writing?

Agnostics are clinging to the idea that either they "don't know anything", or they "can't know anything". By clinging to "I can't know anything" they're clinging to their ignorance, refusing to be educated, and calling that truth (which totally defeats the argument because, how do you know you can't know anything?). Or they're clinging to the idea that "I don't know anything" how do you know that you don't know anything!?!?

No. I believe in science, but am open to the idea of there being a God. I am not clinging to any ideas. As the evidence changes my views will change.

Atheist aren't open minded unless they're not atheists, e.g. "I'm an atheist because I believe there is no god. We all just popped out of nothing and we exist for nothing and we will die for nothing." Where is your proof that god doesn't exist? Can you prove that we popped out of nothing?

They don't believe we popped out of nothing. I believe big bang.

Well educated christians have proof, which in turn makes it so that they can be confronted with questions and consider these things (be open minded) and reply with solid evidence.

What sold evidence do you have? If you say the bible, as far as I'm concerned that's just an old book.

I wonder both, if there is a God, where did he come from to create the universe? And if the big bang is accurate, where did the atoms come from that caused it? Especially since science both says you can't get something from nothing and matter can neither be created nor destroyed. However if the arguement God is an always existant being, I see no reason to say the same can't be said for the atoms that caused the big bang.
