Re: Atheists.
Mostly I'm a man that doesn't believe EVERY SINGLE THEORY OR THING thrown at him. Just cause it's on the internet or in a book or in a movie doesn't mean it's true, you know. Just cause someone preaches it doesn't mean it's true. Originally Posted by Doomsday Dallas

Re: Atheists.
Christianity is such a crock of ****. It's only been around a couple thousand years. You can go through the archaelogic records for 10's of thousands of years before that with zero evidence of your whole belief system.
Just a bunch of pagans revolting against the religious establishment of the time.

Re: Atheists.
The burden of proof rests not with the atheist but the theist. There's as much proof of the existance of unicorns as there is an ominiscient, omnipotent, omnibenevolent, omnipresent being. Because of this lack of proof, I see no reason to believe in unicorns. Why should I believe in god? Originally Posted by Holden Magroine

By all means, enlighten the world with this common sense, which the rest of us seem to be lacking. Originally Posted by SuperboyXX0018

Re: Atheists.
Because I don't think God exists, so why believe in him? I'm dying to see what you would reply to this.

Re: Atheists.
Faith requires the partial suspension of logic and reason.
Sounds like common sense to me!

Re: Atheists.
Isn't it funny how RainierBeachPoet hasn't even touched this conversation? Rightly so, I have a strange feeling the original question was not asked out of a sincere desire to know why athiests don't believe in God. Could be wrong, of course, in fact I hope I am in that regard.

Re: Atheists.
Beautiful one line response that does nothing for this thread nor for your argument, which is pretty weak. Originally Posted by SuperboyXX0018

Re: Atheists.
After the French Revolution, one of the first things Napoleon did was to reinstate the Church. He said, "The promise of rewards in the afterlife is the only thing that keeps the poor from slaughtering the rich in this life."

Books and stories only go so far... faith is up to you.
You think I cling to faith? you are mistaken.
Go ahead and live this life with the Godlessness you people have.
Somebody is very happy with it.

I was about to send you a PM saying "keep up the good posts and not spamming the front page" too. Whoops, spoke too soon I guess...
What does godlessness even mean? Without the Xtain god? Count me in, then.

Re: Atheists.
There is no 'burden of proof' for those of us that say God exists. We're accepting it on faith, so we're saying from the start that God can't be proven since God exists outside of what science can measure. On the other hand, science can't explain why anything exists. Since something can't come from nothing, according to science, *science* shouldn't even exists. So atheists are in a bind of their own. Seems to me like no one should be an atheist. At worse, there should be only non-God leaning agnostics.
