No clue about the theory of evolution either.

Its a good country with a much better system of social care than America.

So how in a mainly godless country can our morality be so much more demonstrably superior to the rather in your face Christian country of the US?

The less religious they are, the better the people tend to be. This is seen everywhere in the world.
So it follows that religion is bad for humanity.

Look at the least religious countries quality of life and crime rates. Look at the US and atheist population percentages in prison.

From the face of it Atheism makes you better.

Why would a god make it thus?

93% of the world believes in God. See for yourself 73 cited scholarly sources.

What countries are you claiming don't believe in God? And the US is pretty darn good. We have the richest poor people in the world.

I live in England whose religiosity has reduced enormously. Around the south coast it is the exception to be religious.

The church I was christened in is now a bar.

in a you gov poll in 2016 (The latest I could find) in England 28% said they believed in either a god or a higher power.

UK Church membership has declined from 10.6 million in 1930 to 5.5 Million in 2010, or as a percentage of the population; from about 30% to 11.2%.
By 2013, this had declined further to 5.4 million (10.3%). If current trends continue, membership will fall to 8.4% of the population by 2025.2

interesting 16% of the world population identify as non religious.

"Religiously unaffiliated people – sometimes called the 'nones' – account for 16 percent of the world’s population, and they make up the largest 'religious group' in seven countries and territories. Perhaps more remarkably, they also are the second-largest group in roughly half (48 percent) of the world’s nations," Pew demographer Conrad Hackett wrote.

Your gods aren't as popular as you think they are.

FWIW, there are theists with whom I can have a productive conversation about such matters. You simply aren't one of them. My advice is to educate yourself and work on your logic (which is horrid btw) before attempting to persuade skeptics to see things from your point of view.

It is an assumption based on nothing apart from you want it to be true.
If you look at what can actually be proved then you will not find any trace of god.

Just because things exist is not evidence for a god. It is rather pathetic of you to insult us with the poorly constructed thought.

Dear believer in God and challenger to Atheists. Don't go all out with bullets in this thread.

Shoot one slowly and take your time with each point, with separate threads.  This way they don't get lost in this massive thread.

Well it doesn't bother me that there is a wide spectrum of humanity present on these boards, including some who are verbose in their ignorance and belligerent in its defense.  As long as it doesn't derail all our threads I see no reason to remove it.  Let those who need further convincing that the green one is incapable of coherent intercourse come here to try again.  Not being one of those, I think I'll look elsewhere.

That's butt fuckingly stupid, Mystic. Perhaps those who are not certain are not certain for good reasons which you lack. Either way, bravado in the face of uncertainty is both stupid and nothing but a triumph of style over substance. Once again magic book only shows itself to be magically stupid. And Everena here is a classic example of why that advice is stupid.

I just brought up the latest discoveries from quantum biology and there potential long term implications for proving the concept of eternal life when combined with the multiverse theory from quantum mechanics.  Here is the article.  https://www.scientificamerican.com/artic...milestone/

Quote the relevant passage(s) "....for proving the concept of eternal life when combined with the multiverse theory from quantum mechanics."

My point was that since we know atoms and particles can exist in 2 places at the same time, and they are now working on proving bacteria can exist in 2 places at the same time and hoping to eventually apply this at the macro level (and they say it is only a matter of when, not if). then it is also possible that we can exist in 2 places at the same time. The multiverse theory, combined with quantum mechanics could at some point scientifically justify a belief in eternal life.

Typical apologist evasion. I didn't ask you for your opinion or interpretation of the article. I asked you to quote the relevant passage(s) "....for proving the concept of eternal life when combined with the multiverse theory from quantum mechanics."

You getting an A in biology at a diploma mill won't make any false thing true.  Do we disagree?

This was addressed to the Prophet who was certain, and so applies to people who are certain.  They will be belittled and mocked when they show the truth per paradigm of Quran which I have witnessed!
