By repeatedly telling us what our positions are, that we say "God can't exist", she is argueing with positions almost no one actually holds.
Let's not forget, that she claims, that people turn to atheism, not because they find religious doctrines illogical and obnoxious - but because god doesn't speak to them...
She get pissy at us, for not believing in god and then she says, that only god can give us evidence. Why isn't she angry with god, then? There seems to be literally NOTHING we can do to find the god hypothesis convincing - unless he decides to start whispering to each and every one of us - as he allegedly does with her.
your assuming that everyone becomes atheist for the same reason , because they dont believe in the Bible and thats it . well if they had a relationship with God regardless of what they thought about the Bible or how illogical and obnoxious the religious doctrines were , they would still believe in God . and therefore would not become an atheist.
And im not getting upset what makes you think im getting upset with you for being an atheist ive said over and over again you need proof to believe i know you dont have it yet and as long as you dont close the door completely to the possibility of God youll get that proof eventually its worth the wait .
Imagine there's no heaven It's easy if you try No hell below us Above us only sky Imagine all the people Living for today
Imagine there's no countries It isn't hard to do Nothing to kill or die for And no religion too Imagine all the people Living life in peace You may say I'm a dreamer But I'm not the only one I hope someday you will join us And the world will be as one - John Lennon
