Question 1: Why do you not believe in a God
Question 2: Why do you choose to deny the existence of a God
I'll start off with that, thank you, I look forward to an interesting conversation
Those two questions appear to be the exact same thing stated twice. However, the second implies that atheists do actually believe in a god (stop capitalizing the 'g' if you have 'a' in front please), but they merely pretend not to. Which, if that's what you're saying, you're an ignoramus prick who is so stupidly arrogant and wrong as to make me laugh. To not believe in the existence of a god does not mean it is a fact that there is a god. That's stupidly incoherent.
Now, to answer:
I don't think a god exists because I see no sound and convincing evidence supporting that any do. All attempts at bolstering theism that I'm aware of are flawed post hoc rationalizations, and oftentimes even if they are true they don't establish what they are purported to.
You may not believe in God, but by denying God or accepting that there is no God you have already acknowledged the fact that there is a God. You can not think of something and choose to deny it, your brain will not let you do that. And the Bible is evidence that there is a God everything within the Bible has been proven to have some sort of backing, for example the Bible is historically accurate with its writings. I would like to have a scholarly talk with you so I would appreciate no use in profanity. If that's all your mind can choose to comprehend then I'm afraid that your answers are inconclusive.
