Strong Atheism and what it REALLY means to be an atheist
#20
RE: Strong Atheism and what it REALLY means to be an atheist
Quote:I think its safe to say that Strong Atheism is just as ridiculous as any religion (based on the assumption it makes) and may as well be considered a religion itself.

Not in all cases, I don't think. For the Christian god, for example, there are a few proofs that suggest that God CAN'T exist, so he doesn't. For example, the concept of omnipotence, usually ascribed to the Christian god, cannot exist because of logical impossibilities (can he create a rock he can't lift?), therefore the god can't, if it is defined that way.

Just saying, I think it's justified in some cases. For others, naw...
