Atheism is unreasonable

[dyresand]

Lets take away all of the fluff and feathers for a minute. Let's take away all of the technical babble, all of the rhetoric for just a second.

I can't speak for every religion, but I am a Christian theist. Now what does that imply? Well, that would mean that I believe Jesus Christ died on the cross for the sins of mankind, and that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have everlasting life.

That is basically my belief in a nut shell. Now, if you are an atheist, you may find my beliefs laughable, sickening, stupid, etc....which is fine, Christianity isn't for everyone because after all, Jesus said "But the gateway to life is very narrow and the road is difficult, and only a few ever find it." (Matt 7:14).

But as an atheist, here is what you have to believe...you have to believe that billions of years ago before humanity, dead matter was floating around in space...and for whatever reason, suddenly, this dead matter "came to life". Not only did it come to life, but it came to life and began thinking, talking, and having sex.

Just think about that for a second. This non-living material suddenly CAME TO LIFE. For the life of me, I just can't get myself to believe that, even if I tried. I just don't understand how naturalism/atheism is a more reasonable position than theism.

You have to believe that a process that can't think or see, created consciousness. So consciousness came from a process that can't think??

I just don't have enough faith to be an atheist.

you can't call atheism unreasonable. there is many reasons why people don't don\'t believe in god. there is many reasons why atheists do not believe in a god and you know why it starts with the bible and it starts with church. they give you only the good parts and never the terrible parts of the bible. the bible is filled with contradictions and also plagiarizes off of other cultures dogmas. jesus is a copy of horus, horus being the sun god and well he was a deity of early man that would allow people into heaven but he is not forgiving if you do anything terrible, unlike jesus he forgives everything and people take advantage off it and it causes a lot of issues here in the real world were people think they can get into heaven if they kill someone god would forgive them. reality check there is really no historical evidence for jesus, there could have been a crazy preacher that had and almost identical name and he could have died via crucifixion and that type of death is nothing special and jesus didn't didn't die on a cross either if was a plank of wood or something resembling a Y with a piece of wood sticking up through the Y for is head do rest on. That's a huge Is because history and Christianity do not mix very well. Considering Christians wan't the whole thing about jesus being added to teh bible but have no credible evidence for his existence. If he did Romans would have kept a record but there is no such thing.
