Agnostic: How do you know it won’t fly into the air if you drop it one more time?
Theist: My god can make the penny fly into the air the next time you drop it. But don’t actually try it. Thou shalt not tempt the lord thy god.
Deist: Yes, there’s something making that penny drop.
Now, what might an atheist say?
I would say..
Why has your god changed his mind in the days of science? The bible is full of stories that claimed god unequivocally showed himself to exist and be powerful. If god didn't hide during the exodus parting of the seas and he didn't hide his magic during the three men in the fiery furnace story and he didn't hide himself for thirty years in the form of jesus and his miracles, why is he so afraid to levitate a penny while viewed by an honest man today?
Why did god talk in clear voices and commands to men in the ancient times but now christians can only "hear" god through warm fuzzy feelings? Why is Rhondazvous less worthy of hearing the voice of the lord as Saul the siinner before he became Paul?
