Theists: What is the most compelling argument you have heard for Atheism?
RE: Theists: What is the most compelling argument you have heard for Atheism?
The 2nd best argument is when you talk about virtues that supposedly the Creator cannot take, because he doesn't have the limitations of creation. Thus how can he be the source of all virtues or the embodiment of all perfections?

This was a strong argument.

The best argument is simply the assertion that struggled earned value is greater then value that was not struggled for. This is true almost universally, so it seems paradoxical.

Those shook my faith once upon a time till I disbelieved. But they are easily refuted now.
