(October 11, 2013 at 3:18 am)Sword of Christ Wrote: There was an eternally existing God beyond time that's what there was. Why do atheists have to make it difficult by claiming he isn't real?

Because:

a/ He isn't.
b/ Why would he have to be eternal - he could be part of a society that has its own Gods - ad infinitum. In fact he could be a Janitor in his universe.
c/ It doesn't help. If we were to accept it without definitive proof then we abandon scientific principle and may as well start allocating anything we don't know to magic.
d/ A lack of evidence.

Of course then there are all the deist god / theist god / which one(s) arguments which move us even further from the truth - i.e. non of the above.
