What do you intend to waste your life on? Because, according to you, the best it can be is a waste.

Do you even know the meaning of the word worship?

Reverent honor and homage paid to God or a sacred personage, or to any object regarded as sacred; the object of adoring reverence or regard - Source: Dictionary.com

I don't pay homage to any thing or any one neither do I regard any thing or any one as sacred.

ecolox Wrote:If people weren't suffering somewhere then no one would have an opportunity to help anyone. And I believe that this life isn't all there is to it, so though it be painful - it's not all there is to it.

So now you're saying god allowed suffering? Imagine a family in the heart of Africa, looking up to the sky and praying for health and the chance that they might live another day and not succumb to starvation and ill health. You try and tell them "some people just have to suffer so others can help". Imagine if you were in their shoes, do you think you'd feel that same way? I reckon not.

ecolox Wrote:That's not good enough according to Jesus or me, what about all your enemies and strangers?

It means experiencing what life has to offer. A family, friends, career, exploring new places, games and much more. There is so much to life but you theists narrow-mindedly focus on god god god god.

If you disagreed with the Nazis, as someone outside Nazi society, then could you, with your belief system, impose your will on the Nazis to stop what you considered "horrendous".

Yea, and since nothing moral makes any sense anyway, what the Nazis did was right - and your opposition to what the Nazis did is right also. This must be impossible though, because two contradictory things cannot simultaneously be true. Plus, there's no way you could have stopped the Nazis, knowing that they were right.

Ha-ha, you atheists will never take on the burden of explaining anything important. Like I said, I can't imagine how I could exist, if God does not. With no God, there can be no purpose. Why do you think you exist - don't say "for no reason", because that wouldn't be rational. And please, don't be ok with ignorance like some of your buddies, because that would be negligent.

But people still die everyday of causes that can be prevented. They ask to be saved but die horrible deaths, so how you can go to church every week, worship and thank some almighty power for what you have in your life, despite all the suffering around is beyond me. I respect your affirmation, I just don't think it makes sense one bit.

Retorth Wrote:You narrow minded atheists block God out, if only you could open up your mind to the immensity of the creator of the universe. Look at people as made in the image of God, worthy of love and respect.

How can I open up my mind to the idea of an imaginary being that doesn't exist? Why do I say he doesn't exist? I'll share with you:

Quote:What did God do during that eternity before he created everything? If God was all that existed back then, what disturbed the eternal equilibrium and compelled him to create? Was he bored? Was he lonely? God is supposed to be perfect. If something is perfect, it is complete--it needs nothing else. We humans engage in activities because we are pursuing that elusive perfection, because there is disequilibrium caused by a difference between what we are and what we want to be. If God is perfect, there can be no disequilibrium. There is nothing he needs, nothing he desires, and nothing he must or will do. A God who is perfect does nothing except exist. A perfect creator God is impossible.

Your god has yet to prove himself to us. The only prove you have is in your bible which in itself is not infallible proof. Its contents is questionable at best.

You are the one living for nothing though, because you cannot explain with even a shred of solid evidence why you even exist! Umm, what is a thousand years to God? Be patient, yet vigilant - or He will surprise you even more that you could imagine.[/quote]

I already told you what I live for. Please read above. All the entities I live for are here, very real, are all around me, and are close to my heart. I am not the one basing my life on an imaginary being. Its as simple as that. Your only retort is to tell me I live for nothing if not for god. Please attempt a better explanation.

With no god? There is no god to begin with. You cannot even explain god, can you? I wouldn't say I exist for no reason. But again, you are the one here claiming an imaginary being. The burden of proof falls on you to prove this being of yours as infallible.

I'll put it to you this way. Personally, if I am shown infallible evidence that there is a god, I will readily accept. Then again, I wouldn't have a choice because he would be real so it would be foolish to accept otherwise. However, as of now, he only exists in the bible which as I said above, is itself fallible. You don't even know who wrote the bible except to say "hundreds of people who were inspired, wrote it".

As you can see, I have nothing to lose and all to gain.

Now I ask you, for the sake of this debate, if you one day learn that god truly doesn't exist, since you say you live your life for god, what will you do then?

Explore life and the universe and arts and culture, music, literature, science, maths, philosophy but more importantly to enjoy yourself, do things that interest you, there is always a possibility of living a great life with your friends and family and bartender and kids and your partner... there are more things in this life to do than there is time to do it, so you have to enjoy our very existence because you're never getting another one.

I see no need to believe in an afterlife; It, along with religion is a concept developed by primitive, uneducated, superstitious men thousands of years ago to try and explain the universe. compared to the knowledge we have today their assumptions are laughable, there is no evidence to distinguish their assumptions from any other possibly imagined afterlife or reincarnation, only faith in the ideas of primitive men. There is no reason to believe all the functions of the mind(there is no soul) are anything but naturalistic and until evidence arises for an alternative theory i refuse to accept something that offers us no advantage or explanatory power, there is no need for any of the empty religious concepts, they are the product of superstition mixed with human curiosity, and they were completely wrong - it's an idiotic belief and an even more idiotic way to evaluate the universe.

With no God, there can be no purpose. Why do you think you exist - don't say "for no reason", because that wouldn't be rational. And please, don't be ok with ignorance like some of your buddies, because that would be negligent. I'm sure atheists don't want to be known as deadbeats.

Evolution is why we exist.

Wow!

Simply Wow Kyu

You squirm from debate more than anyone I've known and violently attack without provocation. You seek to scare people off with your impression of a hooligan. Congratulations on that.

Brilliant Kyu!
