Why I'm an atheist

[BADecker]

I think the reason you are an atheist is because you have a quarrel or a grudge with God  ,but deep down you know that God exists .

I think the reason you posted is because you are either a delusional idiot or some stupid meaningless AI bot.
 

It's not that you believe in your atheism religion, but rather, you have adopted Satan's self-destruction religion to be your own.

Life is so frail. Earth, even with all its death, is quite amicable to life when not aroused. But when death comes, it can be fast and without mercy.


Where Will You Spend Eternity?

During the Monday Night Football game between the Cincinnati Bengals and the Buffalo Bills on January 2, 2023, millions of viewers watched in dismay and horror as one of the players collapsed on the field and was unresponsive after making a routine tackle. Damar Hamlin, a 24-year-old safety for the Buffalo Bills, suffered a cardiac arrest and was rushed to the hospital in critical condition. He was later revived and has recovered sufficiently to return home to Buffalo, New York. It is uncertain whether he will be able to play football again.

Normalcy bias describes the tendency for people to believe that things will always go on as they did before, and to therefore underestimate or diminish the likelihood of great changes or calamities. The apostle Peter talked about this attitude in 2 Peter 3:3-9, describing those who held it as failing to realize the divine judgments of the past such as The Great Flood, and those to come on the present heavens and earth. But the patience of God is demonstrated in His delay of judgment in order for sinners to come to repentance and believe in Jesus.

Like the more than 1,500 souls who perished on the RMS Titanic, we are all on a sinking ship taking us to the grave. Like Damar Hamlin, we are all one heartbeat away from eternity.

None of us can guarantee our next breath, never mind whether we will make it to the end of the day. We should keep in mind the frailties of life and how they can change suddenly without warning and consider what we do in the light of eternity. Where you spend eternity is answered by whether you believe on the Lord Jesus Christ (John 3:16) or not. Today, if you hear God’s voice, do not harden your heart (Hebrews 3:15, 4:6-7).

   I just say I have no reasons to believe on his existence and have some grounds above presented that point against his existence.

   It's the same situation that makes be very skeptic on the existence of flying horses.

   I'm very skeptical, but I'm open to any real evidence on the existence of god or flying horses.

   Therefore, I think I have grounds to say that I'm an atheist and not a simple agnostic.

It took me some time to understand all this long post. at least, there are many things that I should interpret and inspire. unfortunately, my time is limited for that. so I only read the colored text and everything else is cursory. whatever you say, in essence you do not believe in god let alone life after death. I can't argue as well as you can, at least not on matters of faith. this problem, is a spiritual problem, between me and my god, nor is it only based on guidance from holy books that exist from various beliefs.

To be honest, I have read a lot about various religions, especially the leading religions on this earth. in fact, we had our own ancestral beliefs before imported religions came and spread in my country. for me, religion and its holy book are just guidelines that in this era need to be revised. because after all, there are many things that become pros and cons between verse one and another verse. but in essence, how do we define God himself. and if being an atheist makes you happy, then that is entirely yours and no one forbids it, except for a fool who imposes his beliefs on others.

To be honest, my faith is very doubtful and even I am no better than other believers. but I believe, there is a big entity behind all human drama and contents of everything in this universe. after all, until now technology has not answered all about the secrets of the universe. whatever the argument, it will not solve problems and debates related to religion. So, if that makes you happy you have every right not to have a religion.

The whole theme of the Bible is to get people to believe that God is saving them. Right after Adam and Eve sinned, God spoke about the salvation He was sending.

This salvation is the thread that flows to Jesus, where Jesus does it for God. And following this work that Jesus did, there is writings on the new life that people should want to live in. And there is the Revelation that shows what the final result of all of this will be.

I think the reason why you think you're an atheist is because you've got beef with God but deep down you know that God exists, you're just in enmity with God due to reasons best known to you, and for that you're living in denial that He doesn't exist because probably what you may have ask of Him for  ,He didn't do for you due to reasons you may never comprehend if you stay atheist.  Thanks

To be honest, I was born in a multicultural family. some of our family members embrace different beliefs, including teachings about Christianity, Buddhism, Hinduism, and even the religion inherited from our ancestors. in essence, all the religions that I studied teach kindness, love, and be useful to your fellow creatures including nature and everything in it.

But by the way, I do not understand the essence of what you convey. I know, in Christian beliefs, Catholicism, Islam, almost have similarities. but, don't get me wrong, I'm not debating it or comparing it to certain religions. what you say, I understand very well. about adam and eve, revelation and the end times. it's just that, I'm a little confused by the essence of what you convey in this post.

One more thing, sometimes I like to read your posts and even your arguments. many things and points that I like from your post, but not completely. not infrequently, you convey about religion and beliefs. but on the other hand, you like war conflicts. I think you are quite a unique person.

The whole Christian religion is this simple:
1 God made the universe and mankind perfect.
2. Mankind corrupted himself by not following God's divine laws perfectly.
3. The corruption would destroy mankind if not corrected.
4. God sent his Son Jesus in the form of a man to live on Earth.
5. Jesus kept the whole law of God perfectly, AND He took the punishment that was reserved for all mankind for their corruption.
6 The only thing left for man to do is believe it... believe in Jesus and what He did for us.
7. A person's actions in obeying the laws of God shows where his faith is, or if he has any faith. Disobedience also brings correction from God in this life. It often feels like pain and punishment.

Why all this? Because God is going to destroy the universe, because He doesn't like corruption. But because of His love for people, He wants to save mankind. The Jesus-salvation believers will be saved by being raised from death, and being taken to a new, perfect universe God is making (Heaven).

That's the whole, simplified story of what Christianity is all about. But it's not really that simple in ways. Read the first 4 books in the New Testament of the Bible.

Yeah, my buddy BADecker is a unique person alright. No argument there.
I don't know anyone that can preach more prolonged,(we are talking many years here) complete utter bollocks on this forum than he can. That makes him unique, in my book anyway.

........
The whole Christian religion is this simple:
......

Yeah, it sure is, simply bullshit.

........
..
1 God made the universe and mankind perfect.
....

Who made God?

........
2. Mankind corrupted himself by not following God's divine laws perfectly.

Mankind doesn't need a magic sky fairy to be corrupt. Shit happens.

........
...
3. The corruption would destroy mankind if not corrected.

Yes, probably. No invisible, imaginary friend needed in the equation.

........
4. God sent his Son Jesus in the form of a man to live on Earth.

Oh ffs! Do you still believe that ancient fairytale written by goat herders?  (stupid question....of course you do)

........
5. Jesus kept the whole law of God perfectly, AND He took the punishment that was reserved for all mankind for their corruption.

see above

........

6 The only thing left for man to do is believe it... believe in Jesus and what He did for us.

Yes the con artist Christian evangelists want the gullible folks like you to believe that nonsense so they can preach bible crap, be rich and fly around in Lear jets, funded by their (afore mentioned), credulous followers' donations. Dude, get out of the dark ages. This is 2023, not 1650  (random ancient year, when folks knew no better)

........
...
7. A person's actions in obeying the laws of God shows where his faith is, or if he has any faith. Disobedience also brings correction from God in this life. It often feels like pain and punishment.

.....

BOLLOCKS!   Faith is NOT the path to truth. But I know in your case, that's falling on deaf ears.

........
.....
Why all this? Because God is going to destroy the universe, because He doesn't like corruption. .....

Oh noes!!  I'm shaking in my boots because the forum nutcase has posted his imaginary friend is "going to destroy the universe, because He doesn't like corruption"

........
...... But because of His love for people, He wants to save mankind. The Jesus-salvation believers will be saved by being raised from death, and being taken to a new, perfect universe God is making (Heaven).

Oh spare me....please...

........
That's the whole, simplified story of what Christianity is all about...

Oh yeah, like I said above... simply bullshit (for the lazy, ignorant, non critical thinkers.... (like you-know-who))

But it's not really that simple in ways. Read the first 4 books in the New Testament of the Bible.

Oh ok!, I'll get right on that Bud!  ..............


And ateotd............ because of all this nonsense my buddy preaches (and many other reasons, ftm), it's why I'm an atheist (see my avatar)
