What are some good checkmate arguments against religion?
May 23, 2014 at 4:23 pm
I'm only familiar with Epicurus saying:

Quote:“Is God willing to prevent evil, but not able? Then he is not omnipotent.
Is he able, but not willing? Then he is malevolent.
Is he both able and willing? Then whence cometh evil?
Is he neither able nor willing? Then why call him God?”

Are there any more sayings like this? Do you have any of your own arguments?

Thanks in advantage.
Isn't it enough to see that a garden is beautiful without having to believe that there are fairies at the bottom of it too?
