Why I'm an atheist

[BADecker]

Sounds like you are starting to realize that God exists... but at least that you don't know that He doesn't, and that you should probably be looking for Him.

Sounds like you're dreaming. One day you'll wake up and realise you've been praying to a f'ing unicorn  

You sound so bitter. What happened to all your love? God loves you and has hHis love available for you to use for salvation. Since it is only stubbornness that is keeping you from admitting that you believe about God, now, why not become honest and Accept salvation and live?

If your philosophy is based on feeling good, why stop there? You can go and try drugs: coke, heroin, meth, you can distance yourself further away from reality with that. If I had to agree with Marx on anything it would be that "religion is the Opium of the people".

I prefer to keep myself grounded in reality. By the way, reality is way more awesome than any and all of the religious fairy tales, but to discover it you need to be scientific about it. So you cannot use your non-sequitur fallacies.

You use the word if. A right religion is easily administered and produces feeling good way deeper than the temporary feelings produced by things like "coke, heroin, meth," etc.

So it is for you like I said above, "You sound so bitter." Because that's what reality without proper religion does to people. After all, death and pain are reality no matter how much joy comes along in reality. So, making reality your religion causes you to focus on the things of reality, thereby producing bitterness in you.

Come over to the right religion, the religion that brings lasting joy that is stronger than pain and death. Recognize that there will be a resurrection to a life of joy and glory with God through the salvation that God's Son, Jesus, won for us.

I know, I know. Too much information for you.

I am perfectly happy, thanks. Thus you're just deflecting your pain on me. You're denying reality to avoid pain by turning into religion, you should go see a psychologist. I'm really sorry for your pain, man.

The little child who is beaten by his parents somewhat, is perfectly happy that they are around. He doesn't know any better, because he has had no experience not being beaten.

Really find God, so that you can find true happiness, rather than being beaten by your own ignorance.

God is not a mythical creature.

god is just an idea, like unicorns. It would be nice if it existed but so would be unicorns.

god is going to take a nap while humanity destroys itself, just like he passed out during the holocaust.   god needs to take a walk and check out the planet he made, instead of drinking so much.  :/

God made the greatest gift to us. He created us, our planet, our universe, with billions of other planets with other races, with other creatures, aliens, etc.. And after that he gave us freedom. Freedom is the greatest gift we can wish for.
God sees only those who turned to face him. He cannot see those people who don't do good, who don't feel true Love, and this is logical.
God is within us, try to live in good conscience, try to love yourself, the people around you, and then you will understand that God is everywhere.

I'm sorry if you were beaten as a child man, that sucks. Seek help.

You don't even seem to want to seek help when beaten by your own ignorance.

Are you sure about what you said ?? Have you ever seen a ghost ??  God like a ghost cannot be seen for real, only can be felt.  I have personally accidentally seen a ghost, so I thought "there really are ghosts, it's certain that God exists too"!!  God is not a myth or fairy tale.

I'm surely going to believe your words without a shred of evidence, buddy. /sarcasm

Man, seek help, I feel for you.

Unfortunately, everything changes over time, once religion was the basis of many people's lives, and now with the progress of technology people's attitude changes.

If we are talking about religion - then any religion only partially leads to the same God. After all, God is one. Moreover, God is not the opposite of science and technology. God can be called the Universe, Energy, Love, or otherwise, these are all different sides of the same. God cannot be understood by the mind (it is not something physical or material). This is what lies beyond the understanding of man in this world. However, we can strive for God through Love or through kindness, etc.
After our death, freed from the physical body (and from our other bodies, such as the astral, mental, etc.), we are reunited with God and only then we can understand what it is. In this world it is impossible to understand, only partially.
When we live our life in harmony with ourselves and with the people around us, with the whole world, when we love, when we control our mind and use it only for the good, when we live in heart and soul - then we are in continuous conversation with God (or at least strive for Him).

Well that's just false because god doesn't exist. I'm more in harmony than you, and that's because I don't believe in bullshit.

When anyone thinks about atheism logically, he will see that it is based on simple belief, not knowledge. Anyone who says that he is an atheist from knowledge that there is no God is lying.

Nobody knows that God doesn't exist. Since the greater portion of a person's mind, his subconscious, is mostly hidden so that it is not understood by the conscious mind, nobody knows for a fact that God doesn't exist right in himself. And since he doesn't know this much, he doesn't know for a fact that God doesn't exist somewhere in the universe that he hasn't examined yet... or outside of the universe, for that matter.

The people who are closest to being real atheists are people who have never thought about the idea of God existing. If they haven't thought about such a thing as God, they don't realize that He might exist somewhere that they haven't examined, and so they simply go on with life, believing all the things that they believe in with God not included... at least not consciously.

When the question of the existence of God comes to a person, he has to decide if he is going to hide from himself the fact that he doesn't know, and instead choose the position that God doesn't exist. This means that the stronger the atheist, the more he is lying to himself and others about reality... that God might easily exist somewhere, even thogh he doesn't know where.

This means that the strong atheist is someone who is fighting reality to simply be an atheist.

[Lambowei]

Nobody knows that God doesn't exist.

Nobody knows if god exists.

Nobody knows if unicorns exist, though nevertheless people normally think they're just an invention of humans and that thus they don't exist. It's normal to consider that things don't exist when there's no scientific evidence that they do, and as that's the case for both god and unicorns I consider neither exist. It's not a belief, it's just standard procedure: by default I consider things not to exist, when there's some scientific evidence then I start to consider whether they do.

Many scientists understand that God exists through the evidence of machine universe. All you are doing is exactly the thing every other religious person does... believe his religion.

All scientists know that they haven't proven that God doesn't exist. So, He might exist somewhere somehow, right?

A strong atheist believer might say that it is simply standard normal to know that God doesn't exist. And he is right for strong atheists. Others know that God DOES exist, from the evidence of machine universe and the proof when combining the physics of the universe with the question, "Where does it come from?"

In your view, you present atheists as religious people, and religious people as scientists. It's comical how stupid those arguments are. Anyway, even if you repeat it a million times, you're still lying to yourself: there's no scientific evidence of any god (or unicorns), you're just using non-sequitur fallacies.

You actually sound like you are ignorant about the fact that there are thousands of God-religious scientists, just like there are thousands of atheism-religious scientists. Keep it up... talking like that. You are only making a solid point out of the fact that atheism is a religion.

Again, your lack of ability for understanding things is quite sad. Of course there are religious scientists. Believing in god(s) is not at odds with doing science, because beliefs and scientific knowledge are just completely different subjects (that you try to mix). As long as one recognizes that his beliefs are just that, beliefs, you can still also do science, which is not based on belief but on the scientific method of acquiring knowledge. And just to make it clear for you as you seem to have trouble understanding things: all religions are based on beliefs, not on the scientific method.

You see, the problem for you is that you're trying to rationalize your religious beliefs. But you can't rationalize them, there's no logic in beliefs. So instead you start to use fake logic, fallacies, non-sequitur arguments to get to your desired end. That's not how science works, science is about the method of discovering truth, whatever it may be, not trying to bend logic to get to your desired destination/belief.
