Ybe an atheist

RE: Ybe an atheist
LOL what a weirdo. I like it!
"Of course, everyone will claim they respect someone who tries to speak the truth, but in reality, this is a rare quality. Most respect those who speak truths they agree with, and their respect for the speaking only extends as far as their realm of personal agreement. It is less common, almost to the point of becoming a saintly virtue, that someone truly respects and loves the truth seeker, even when their conclusions differ wildly."

Define fairies, and explain what it means to believe in them and what you mean by evidence. Then tell me why I should believe your definitions are reasonable.

 I haven't received a logical reasonable reason for being an A yet. So perhaps you should also explain what you mean by reasonable..

Yes, it is.  I am an atheist because I do not believe that gods are real.  If and when an actual god-like being manifests in physical form in my presence, I can update that opinion to fit the new data.

I am now profoundly chronically convinced that you have no logical reason for being an A.

Q.  Is there any logical. reasonable. rational reason to be an A?

Am I correct, that you both believe your view(s) to be rational, etc?

Yes, I gave you my reasons. You can challenge any of them if you want. You can produce a reason I should care, or produce a definition of God that doesn't fall into my three categories. So far, every theist I have talked to has failed on all these counts. I'm not saying with certainty that a theist will never succeed. But until such time, I'm an atheist and an apatheist. I'm quite comfortable with that, and I'm comfortable with other people being theists, whether they have good reasons or not.

If you don't think my reasons are rational, I'm also comfortable with that. You're welcome to say why.

With regard to a generic creator, I'm completely undecided. This is still being an atheist, if you call such thing a god, since I lack belief that it's real as of yet.
Feel free to send me a private message.

OK you have plenty now. But can you give a logical reasonable for being an A.

Paranoid much? I was referring to one of our seasoned members. You do understand that term don't you?

From what I've seen so far, this thread is about you wanking off with word salad and semantics bullshit.

RE: Ybe an atheist
Why would anyone need a reason to be an atheist? We don’t believe in any gods so we are atheist by default.

So, you believe your view to be rational. And your logical, rational, reasonable reason for being an A is every definition of G you've heard is one or more of the following  1) Incoherent 2) Untestable 3) Relabelling".

Perhaps  you can clarify by giving your definitions  of 1) Incoherent 2) Untestable 3) Relabelling. Oh yeah,  be sure that they are  1) Coherent 2) Testable 3)  and never Relabeled.

No offense, but your reason appears to be incoherent. Aren't you saying your reasonable reason for being an A is justified because you have reasonably reasoned about G definitions?

You seem like the kind of guy who would demand that someone define the word "rock" as it flew toward your head..as though that would stop it from hitting you.

Logical or not logical, I am an atheist and there isn't one fucking thing you can do to change that.
