How can you be an atheist?!

RE: How can you be an atheist?!
Quote:Brothers and sisters,


I'm terribly sorry, I am not your brother.

Quote:I didn't expect that from atheists,


Already mentioned;you have no rights of expectation here.


Quote: I know that you support free speech.

You 'know' no such thing,you believe it to be true,without evidence.This a privately owned forum open to the public,not a democracy. There are no rights,only privileges. There is no right to say whatever you like. Break our rules (by say preaching) and you WILL be banned

Quote:I see only insults and strange pictures.


Well,yes. You came to an atheist forum and immediately started preaching at us. Your very first post was arrogant and insulting. You being treated with far more forebearance than an atheist on a Muslin forum.

Quote:Why this life must exist and work in that way?

There is no 'must' only 'is' or 'is not'


Quote:If there is no one Who controls it, why it is in that way?!!


We've been through this before;that questions is a logical fallacy;argument from personal incredulity. IE you may not argue "God did it" simply because you don't understand.It's OK to say:"I don't know".

PLEASE Go away

ROFLOL wha? haven't you had the freedom of putting your bullshit up? FREE SPEECH! You had your speech. Now you receive the critic that is OUR FREE SPEECH!
Quote:I see only insults and strange pictures. Huh
Perhaps because you deserve them? Take a hint from the pictures, a picture as they say, is worth a thousand words. You haven't made an intelligeble coherent claim and/or question yet...
Quote:I want you to answer this serious question;

Why do I get the feeling that a big pile of steaming bullshit will be swung at me?

Quote:Why this life must exist and work in that way? If there is no one Who controls it, why it is in that way?!!

Even if I couldn't explain why this life exists, what makes you think its the only possible way(evidenced by your "must") and it is controlled? What evidence do you have to offer that life is controlled? And this is no question, its many questions in one, a Loaded question.

I mean, for someone so well versed in logic, you should know that...

RE: How can you be an atheist?!
When I run in to this kind of person, I quickly stop trying to convince them that they are wrong. We all know he will never listen, but we keep arguing because we don't want to NOT answer. The best way to approach this special kind of idiot is to take an alternate approach. I shall begin.

Happy Forever, it nearly saddens me to say that you exhibit the textbook symptoms of Ovolujitis, which is characterized by borderline mental retardation and extreme religiousness. Unfortunately, a chemical in your body called Mersin is being produced in excess, stimulating the growth of Thetans, which have affected your mind adversely. I urge you to seek proffessional help as soon as possible to avoid permanent brain damage. Since you are still able to type, the Ovolujitis is not yet in an advanced stage, but you are running out of time.

It is believed that Ovolujitis is caused by the pagan God Azathoth. Since you are unable to prove me wrong, I hope you will see a doctor soon to minimize the risk of suffering further brain damage.

So woefully true Padraic!

Happy Forever,
We definitely mock your kind, but in the end we allow you to be here, because unlike Muslims and Christians, most of us have an attitude of "Live and Let Live". But there's a limit on the amount of idiocy we can tolerate.

*assume whiny sounding voice here* "I just want to ask the big questions and figure out stuff." ~HF

Bull Shit.
There's a reason you're here and I'm starting to wonder if people like you keep coming here because even on your own religious forums you have nothing to offer. Perhaps you are just as despised among your muslim brothers as you are here? It's so insulting to our intelligence to tell us you're just asking questions, because we know that you already believe you have all the answers. Which of course makes it slightly infuriating, because that means you have no reason AT ALL to be here.

At any rate. Stop asking the preachy questions, act like a decent human being, jump into a regular discussion and stick around. Otherwise, move on, your kind is not wanted here.

Few people support free speech, even here. If you deny any form of speech (insults, "hate speech", preaching, trolling)... then you are not supporting free speech. This forum... whatever illusions you might have to the contrary: denies preaching, most trolling, the speech of most bigots, and insults that do not take place in the sunken forums.

Quote:I see only insults and strange pictures. Huh

And I see only the potentially severe mental deficiencies that taking only the insults and a few pictures (strange? Darling... these are nothing) strongly seems to suggest.

Quote:I want you to answer this serious question;

I want you to admit to being a troll, and leave.
OR I want you to shape up out of being a nuisance and into being a decent theist (we have a fine selection of decent ones here)... since you're currently setting a very poor example for theism.

Quote:Why this life must exist and work in that way? If there is no one Who controls it, why it is in that way?!!

Everything exists. That we perceive one answer to be correct neither means that it is correct... nor that it be the only correct answer.

Nobody controls whether or not the fish will swim into the net... yet they do... and we can then pick them out of that net, gill them, and toss them in a very cold box.
Cinjin, my friend.... you do purple some disrespect when you let a whiney little brat like Happy Forever taint its beautiful color. Please reserve pink for the pansies. Heart

I love these alternate approaches so much ^_^

Now, are you asking why life is the way it is if there is no creator? Also, are you asking who controls it, if not god?

Yes, thanks.

Waiting for your answers.

There is no must to anything.

Quote: If there is no one Who controls it, why it is in that way?!!
The tides go in and out, no one controls it. The moons gravitational pull is what's pulling the oceans and causing tides. The earth orbits the sun, no one controls it, it is in fact completely out of control. It's being pulled by the suns sheer gravitational pull due to it's huge mass. There is no controller, only nature. Natural forces.

Instead of looking for who created or controls what, look at how it works and what causes it too. You wouldn't say someone controls the light in your fridge just because you don't know how it turns off when you close the door. You'd look into how it works.

So you claim that the universe is automized like a refrigerator?

Who automized you?
