Silly Creationist

Lost track of this thread but here's a quick list of creator gods (I bet some were even left out). You know, you could have googled this yourself.

It’s not my job to do your fact finding for you. You did kind of pull a fast one here though. Many of the names are different names for the same God. In fact, the God of the Bible appears numerous times on this list, Yahweh, God, God the Father, Jehovah, and Jesus to name a few. You’ll notice that just being the Creator is not enough, which of these gods, if any, has the same nature and attributes as the God of the Bible?

Well, the difference here is many Christians claim absolute knowledge on things that atheists are willing to say they don't know. I think if you do make a claim of knowledge you need to back it up. So if you ask me a specific question, like why I do not believe in the soul, I can back that up. Such a belief though is not a result of being an atheist, while most of Christians' beliefs are direct results of being Christian. That is the main point I'm trying to make. My worldview is not a result of being an atheist, but I am an atheist simply because of my view on religion.

I personally don’t know any Christians who claim to have absolute knowledge, we seem to all believe that the curse does affect are abilities.

---

This assumes that the foundation for my search for knowledge is because I am an atheist, but the only thing being an atheist has to do with my understanding is I do not subscribe the unknowable to God.

Actually, the point I am trying to make is that the foundations for your search for knowledge are in spite of your atheism, not because of it. I am saying that if there really was no God, knowledge would be impossible because the preconditions for knowledge depend on God.

See this is just it, I don't have a worldview. I have no overriding beliefs that dictate how I interpret the cosmos as a whole except for what I mentioned before. I try to interpret each bit of information on its own merits.

Maybe we are not defining worldview the same here, everyone has one. Interpreting each bit of information on its own merits would be part of your worldview. I also imagine you are a bit of a naturalist, or are you open to the possibility of the supernatural? I can’t remember FNM, sorry.

Once again, produce evidence that your 'god' is any more real than those listed a couple of posts above....you know, the ones you will go to your grave swearing are "false."

He won't, he can't. He does want us to believe because he believes and doesn't like it that we don't.

You must think you are psychic huh? Maybe it is you who wants me to not beleive and it bothers you that I do believe?


Sadly, I am heading out for the holiday weekend, so I won’t be back on until next week. Have a great weekend all of you!
