Please present positive arguments why you think atheism is true

[Creed of Heresy]

For those of us who are atheists here, we have not seen any reliable evidence for the existence of gods.

thats why i have asked in this thread what evidence atheists do have that naturalism is a better explanation for our existence.

Atheism is not a religion, a philosophy, an ideology, a theory, a belief system or anything else.

As a darwinian, you do not believe, the ET is true ????

2. Statements of Belief

a. Statement of Faith (Non-negotiable)

The dogma of Evolution is taken on 100% faith as follows; faith that there is no other possible position; faith that “science” will find all the answers; faith in the [irrational] connections drawn between supposed “ancestors”; faith in the supremacy of the mind of man.



A Faith Statement might be as follows:

I have complete, non-negotiable FAITH in the following tenets:

· Faith that the supreme intelligence in the universe is me, embodied in my mind.

· Faith that the appearances of design are false.

· Faith that the first life self-assembled from warm chemicals in goo.

· Faith that the universe is a self-induced, random occurrence.

· Faith that a “multiverse” that we can’t see is a rationale for a random universe producing life (Anthropic principle is false).

· Faith that my mind is an assembly of random mutations, with no actual purpose beyond survival of the fittest. (A Meat Machine). Even so, it is the supreme intelligence in the universe.

· Faith that the brain and the mind are one thing, inseparable.

· Faith that there is no intelligence in DNA.

· Faith that if I can’t sense it, it does not exist. (No metaphysical existence).

· Faith that empiricism is the one and only true path to all-encompassing Truth and Enlightenment.

· Faith in Evolution, which is unquestionable; it is non-negotiable truth. See “Heresy”, below.

· Faith that, because Evolution is non-negotiable truth, life has no meaning.

· Faith that after death there are only worms.

Oh wow, nevermind, you're going to be one of THESE kinds of people.

Here, I'll put it in simple terms so you can understand with your bible-belt education level.

When it comes to evolution, science has provided roughly 75% of the answers via evidence as to what, how, when, where, and why and currently uses informed guesses to piece together the 75% of the puzzle; the puzzle is not finished, there are pieces missing, but the glimpse of the finished picture is very easy to see, and at this point, the remaining pieces can be guessed at very easily.
Religion has provided claims with no evidence...basically, 0% of the answers to anything. It didn't even begin trying to present any evidence of any kind to supports its claims, which all come from second hand [at best] sources. Basically it doesn't even have the puzzle pieces. It's basically gesturing to a blank board and saying "a friend of a friend of a guy who read a book from a guy who heard what he wrote from another guy said these pieces that look kinda like...you know, like certain pieces of the puzzle MIGHT go here...or here. Maybe here. JUST TAKE IT ON MY WORD, ALRIGHT, I KNOW WHAT I'M TALKING ABOUT!"

You are looking at these two individuals and their puzzles...and you're choosing the ranting guy with no puzzle pieces up and saying his puzzle is far closer to being finished over the guy who is nearly done and is basically just rummaging about in the box for the remaining pieces to put up.

Yeah, you're a real genius, I can already tell...
