or because you can’t prove me wrong any more than I can prove you wrong.

If you have no proof of a god, WHY BELIEVE IN IT?

Pascal’s Wager FAILS.

lmao “no u prove ur unprovable first we don’t have to because ours is SCIENCE”

doesnt 99% of science defy god’s existence?

In “Inherit the Wind”, the defense shows this is true. He presents a rock that is 10,000 years old. If the genesis story was true, the rock could not be more than 6,000 years old. Thus, allowing god to exist creates a contradiction. Thus, god cannot exist.

If you don’t believe, why get all riled up?

No, it’s because we aren’t the existentially positive claimants.

Seriously, attempting to apply these silly rules to this debate is, well, silly.

Lol double post

Suppose we grant that there is indeed some small chance that God exists. Nevertheless, it could be said that you will lead a better, fuller life if you bet on his not existing, than if you bet on his existing and therefore squander your precious time on worshiping him, sacrificing to him, fighting and dying for him, etc.” and “I can decide to go to church and I can decide to recite the Nicene Creed, and I can decide to swear on a stack of bibles that I believe every word inside them. But none of that can make me actually believe it if I don’t. Pascal’s Wager could only ever be an argument for feigning belief in God.

And other people have shown it even fails at that.

You only say that because you know that all you have to back you is a wish—which is no backing at all.

Wow. That’s a very simple, concise way of putting it.

What are the chances of finding empirical evidence of ‘God’ when we don’t even know what ‘God’ is (if there even is one). Scientists keep trying to find a live giant squid to study and they can’t and that’s just IN OUR OCEAN. New species are discovered all the time, face it we don’t know everything about our globe and we know much less about what comes after this thing called life.

Atheists are as bad as religious people because they latch on to a belief that is essentially the same as a Religious belief – they think they know the answer to THE biggest mystery known and latch on to that belief like rabid dogs to a bacon strip.

You’re human just like the Pope and everyone else, you do not know if God exists or not, you don’t know what happens after death, and pretending you do makes you look just as very special as the religious people you hate on.

Crazy fundamentalists, gross.

I don’t know whether there is a God. I just think that belief in a particular God is pointless and illogical.
