Let's answer CARM's Questions for Atheists

[Minimalist]

1. How would you define atheism?

As the accumulation of evidence that none of the gods created by the human imagination are real.

2. Do you act according to what you believe (there is no God) in or what you don't believe in (lack belief in God)?

The question is irrelevant. I act according to my own conscience and the civil laws of the land. "God" doesn't enter into the equation.

3. Do you think it is inconsistent for someone who "lacks belief" in God to work against God's existence by attempting to show that God doesn't exist?

Yes...right up until some bible-thumping moron tries to annoy me with his tales of supernatural wonder. Then I will tell him/her off.

4. How sure are you that your atheism properly represents reality?

By the previously mentioned lack of evidence for any god...including the one trumpeted by xtian shitheads

5. How sure are you that your atheism is correct?

Asked and answered. You are getting redundant.

6. How would you define what truth is?

A body of facts supported by tangible evidence.

7. Why do you believe your atheism is a justifiable position to hold?

Again, redundant.

8. Are you a materialist or a physicalist or what?

In general, I consider philosophy to be a pile of shit.

9. Do you affirm or deny that atheism is a worldview? Why or why not?

It is not. A "worldview" should have more than one precept. The fact that religious morons cannot demonstrate that any of their gods are real is insufficient to meet that standard.

10. Not all atheists are antagonistic to Christianity but for those of you who are, why the antagonism?

Because xtians are antagonistic to us.

11. If you were at one time a believer in the Christian God, what caused you to deny his existence?

I turned 12.

12. Do you believe the world would be better off without religion?

Without a doubt.

13. Do you believe the world would be better off without Christianity?

As above. Jesus shit is not better than any of the others.

14. Do you believe that faith in a God or gods is a mental disorder?

When carried to extremes. Otherwise, for most people, it is merely intellectual sloth.

15. Must God be known through the scientific method?

Yes....because that is the only to demonstrate that it is real.

16. If you answered yes to the previous question, then how do you avoid a category mistake by requiring material evidence for an immaterial God?

The immaterial god is the problem of fools who believe it without evidence.

17. Do we have any purpose as human beings?

Live, procreate, die. I sneer at morons who think they are fucking "special" because they believe absurd fairy tales.

18. If we do have purpose, can you as an atheist please explain how that purpose is determined?

n/a

19. Where does morality come from?

Certainly not from the dictates of a rapacious bunch of priests who can't keep their dicks off the altar boys.

20. Are there moral absolutes?

No.

21. If there are moral absolutes, could you list a few of them?

n/a

22. Do you believe there is such a thing as evil? If so, what is it?

As an adjective, not a noun. An example would be a priest raping children in his care. That would be an evil act. As would some baptist preacher like, "Bishop" Eddie Long,

23. If you believe that the God of the Old Testament is morally bad, by what standard do you judge that he is bad?

The number of murders attributed to him.

24. What would it take for you to believe in God?

Evidence

25. What would constitute sufficient evidence for God’s existence?

Sufficient? Why don't you start with "any" and try to work your way up.

26. Must this evidence be rationally based, archaeological, testable in a lab, etc., or what?

Of course. We've seen the irrational arguments based on your silly, fucking bible and they are unpersuasive.

27. Do you think that a society that is run by Christians or atheists would be safer? Why?

Atheists. History furnishes plenty of examples of what happened when xtians were calling the shots.

28. Do you believe in free will? (free will being the ability to make choices without coercion).

Yes.

29. If you believe in free will, do you see any problem with defending the idea that the physical brain, which is limited and subject to the neuro-chemical laws of the brain, can still produce free will choices?

None whatsoever.

30. If you affirm evolution and that the universe will continue to expand forever, then do you think it is probable that given enough time, brains would evolve to the point of exceeding mere physical limitations and become free of the physical and temporal and thereby become "deity" and not be restricted by space and time? If not, why not?

Evolution is supported by museums full of evidence. The rest of your question is the wildest sort of speculation.

31. If you answered the previous question in the affirmative, then aren't you saying that it is probable that some sort of God exists?

Certainly not the piss-pot of a god you jesus freaks have invented.
