An atheist asks "why can't God give us miracles today so we'd know He exists?"

"vote republican" ..lol.

For a person to believe in something, they need some sort of evidence. The only reason anyone (including the tool in this video) believe in this God guy is because he is wrote about in a book, not because of some deep philosophical pondering on their part. If there wasn't for the tales of a schizophrenic, we would have no Abraham or his god. Atheists don't believe in stories that make scientific claims without scientific evidence—this is the most reasonable stance a person can make. There is zero evidence of a god, period.

Can atheists trust their own minds?

This guy doesn't understand the driving forces of evolution. Evolution would push a species to perceive the world as accurately as possible in the context of survive (whenever it aids in its survival). Humans belong to the intelligence niche, we survive based upon how accurately we are able to view and understand the physical world around us (knowledge is power). An atheist isn't able to understand exactly what he/she is, but a theist is much further away.

Aren't we all atheists?

Dr. William Lane Craig answers the typical charge by atheists (like Dan Barker, George H. Smith, Michael Martin, Gordon Stein, etc. who define atheism as a "lack of belief in God") who say literally everybody is an atheist.
-------------------


Dr. William Lane Craig is such a slimy pseudo-intellectual. He misses the forest full of trees with that argument (each tree being a god). He doesn't understand the concept of other imaginary beings. He only sees his god-of-philosophy as being the only true god, and only god that could possibly exist.

I wish that guy would have asked him: "okay, what is God? Not what he is responsible for, but what is it?" The "philosopher" would be unable to list off anything other than nonsense like: "all-powerful being" which describes nothing but what the god is capable of (infinite power). When it boils down to it, Dr. William Lane Craig believes in nothing. God is a word filled with hyperbole, a word as empty and powerless as nothing.

The REAL Definition of Atheism !?

To be an atheist just means that a person does not believe in a god. This guy is your typical educated idiot. Does a monkey need to maintain its atheism? No, because it doesn't even know there is a theistic position to oppose. A person doesn't need to be taught about a god to not believe in its existence. No human pops out of their mothers womb praying to a god. All humans start off in the atheist position (by default), it is later on in life that their heads are filled with talking snakes and magical burning bushes.

+1 atheism
-5 theism

Atheist Dan Barker: Rape Could Be Moral (OH MY!)

Lol, I'm probably the only person that thinks this is hilarious. I don't think that guy could physically rape 2 million girls, there isn't enough Viagra in the world. Also, rape is not the worst crime humanity can think of (as that guy claims). Here are a few that I can think of off the top of my head.

-murder
-child molestation
-getting finger nails pulled off with pliers
-listening to Justin Bieber songs for longer than 2 minutes
-having acid thrown in your face (many girls would rather be raped than have a burn-victim face).


Anyways, this whole debate is stupid and pointless. Never will a scenario where that old geezer raping girls will save humanity—it doesn't matter how much he daydreams about it.

Atheism is responsible for murder, rape, and genocides!?!?

I didn't know atheism was so horrible ....wow, i feel like a real asshole. To think that my non-belief in a god has caused so much death and destruction. I bet if Pol Pot (think that's how his name is spelled) just believed that Jesus Christ was his lord and savior, he wouldn't have killed all those people. We all know that no Christians have ever used religion to justify killing people right? right?

 /end sarcasm


Beliefs don't kill people, people kill people. People use beliefs to justify killing, and people are very creative at justifying violence. I don't want to lump all atheists (or anyone for that matter) into one group. But I find that atheists, if anything, tends to ask 'why' more-so than Believers. Deep thinking helps keep shallow thinking in check (the kind of shallow thinking that is responsible for genocide). To commit a genocide you must polarize a group of people so that they do everything you desire—which includes mindlessly murdering people—for the greater-good. How often has the 'greater good' been religion?

Atheism does not cause people to become polarized, if anything it does the opposite. Skepticism has never killed anyone, religious polarization has.

Breaking News: Scientists re-create Big Bang in lab

According to BBC news (on Yahoo's news site), scientists have made a big bang 'similar' to the one which started the universe (obviously much smaller). The place in which the expironment took place was done in the famous Large Hadron Collider. The story on the site didn't go into much detail, but this is a great story to pick on Christians with. If you want to see the actual story, click here.

*clears throat*

So, apparently a mini-god cost only 10 billion dollars, but you can actually see this one! Do Christians now believe god is a Super Large Hadron Collider? Obviously if people can make a miniature big-bag in a lab, then it is obvious that there is nothing supernatural about a big bang—it is as natural as a bear taking a shit in the woods. Science makes it easy to be an atheist.
