Your belief system is the big bang and a "primordial soup" that existed after the big bang.  There is no evidence to explain how matter and anti-matter (if anti-matter even exists) came into existence.  Your belief system has no logical explanation for the creation of all matter.  Your belief system is not superior to any religion and it makes you very upset and that is why you attack with insults.  I have notices that atheists are very quick to throw out insults when their belief system is challenged.  Isn't this suppose to what theists do?  I seem to be keeping my cool.  Interesting.

Two things:

1) As has been explained to you, atheism, per se, is not a belief system.  If you want to argue against metaphysical naturalism, that's one thing.  But as things stand, you're painting with too broad a brush.

2) With reference to the part of your quote that I bolded, you can't seriously think that Yahweh is a "logical explanation for the creation of all matter".  And if you do, you may be earnest.  You certainly aren't serious.

There's nothing wrong with admitting ignorance.  We don't know how matter came into existence.  Pretending otherwise with conceptual band-aids like "God" doesn't add one iota of understanding to the problem.  This really isn't hard to understand, and you should stop pretending you don't get it.

When Moses asked God for His name, did God just say, "God"?

No, but he did break out that strange Popeye impersonation.

The big bang isn't a belief it is fact

Are you quite capable of reading different replies? Are you able to make a distinction between individuals?

Right now you give this impression.

Another insult from an atheist....shocking.  Rather than have an interesting discussion you choose to insult.  This is very common among responses from atheists.  Since I am such a moron, please explain why your belief system (as it pertains to the origin of matter) is superior to mine.  I may not have time to read your response as I am heading off to church.  I am leading a fund raising campaign to provide food and clothing supplies to the less fortunate.  Rather than insult people I have never met I am choosing to spend time meeting real people face to face and help them with their struggles.  I am not receiving a single dime for my time and energy to help others.  It is purely love and compassion for the less fortunate.  I suppose you would also like to insult my character for these actions as well.  Maybe you wouldn't be so angry if you spent less time attacking others in an internet forum and spent more time showing compassion for others?

No, he did not. "God" is actually a catch-all translation the translators used for several different deities.

Yeah, like theists never insult anyone.

This is the third time I have said this to you... maybe bigger letters might help:

ATHEISM IS NOT A BELIEF SYSTEM

Anyone spot the clue?

My point is quite simple.  Atheists always hide behind a single word when asked to state their beliefs with regards to the origin of matter/life.  Yes, atheism is not a defined belief system but that doesn't mean you, as a human being, are not capable of having an internal belief system as to the origin of matter.  Atheists always like to attack others for their belief system as it pertains to the origin of matter but they never like to talk about their own beliefs.  Any belief you have, as it pertains to the origin of life, is not superior to the belief system of a Christian or any other person.  There is, and will never be, a natural or scientific explanation for the existence/creation of all matter.  Isn't it interesting we have the capability to think abstract about the origins of life yet we clearly lack the tools to ever answer the question?  We have not better answer today then we had 6,000 years ago.  The big bang is nice theory expect there is absolutely no explanation for what created matter prior to the big bang.

Stop hiding behind a word.  My point is simple.  As a human being with the ability to think in the abstract, your personal beliefs as it pertains to the origin of life/matter is not superior to anyone else.  You, as a person, have a personal belief system as to the origin of life.

And what are my personal beliefs about those things? You're the one hiding behind the word; you've done nothing else but go around telling people what they believe and deriding them for it, instead of asking them. The word is all you know about me.

Instead you could just look at the answer I have given to one of your explicit questions. If it isn't too much of an effort.
