Proving a negative

RE: Proving a negative
(July 4, 2013 at 11:59 pm)LeoVonFrost Wrote: How do you respond do a deist asking you to prove there is no god? It is our belief that there is no such thing, but to the contrary proving a negative is impossible, right? How does one be a completely rational athiest? Hitchens showed me what is wrong with religion, something I already knew, a suffering and pain of humans that spans beyond human imagination. Dawkins taught me that when he said we are 99.99% correct in our disbelief according to the evidence that is enough to believe, but I am wondering about that small percentage, as a rationalist. The 0.0infinity-1% is relevant. Do you consider yourself a true believer? A true believer in knowing there is no god, trusting in the obvious reality of the simple moment of your life like a tightrope walker attempting to convert those that have become infected with the sick disease of disbelief.

You may believe this is dualistic rhetoric from a false prophet with a godless complex. However These are the questions that haunt me while I walk hills and flatlands, mountains and rivers, and any help from my human kind is welcome with open arms, for I know that it is just you, not a puppet master trying to clean up a mess of tangled spider web strings with a sunly(sic) sacrifice for the appeasement of his own sins (Blessed are the merciful, for they will be shown mercy -Matthew 5:7 and Deuteronomy 4:31 For the lord your god is a merciful god and therefore he shall performing erotic asphyxiation and blast his holy load on the face of humanity...)

Have you ever played monkey island?


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.
