1. You can rationally justify belief in a value of a human being in the framework of Atheism (and I am using this definition as in non-belief in supernatural gods).
2. You can rationally justify you being the same person as a child with that framework, that despite all the changes, you are the same person.
3. You can rationally justify your actions being linked to who you are and there is a such thing as "better" or "worse" when it comes to humans.
4.  You can rationally justify the belief in justice with your framework.
5. You can rationally justify the nature of love that has language that judges all things and gives value to all things from your framework.

I am not saying you have to do all 5. You can do 1. Trust me, my faith will fall and shred, if you can and I'm not joking.  It will shred.

So ball is in your court.
b-mine

We both know that's not true, so why say it?  It doesn;t seem like anyone else is convinced that this is anything other than a futile endeavor, either.  Why do you think that is?

It is true though. What brought me back to faith in God was belief all these things were impossible without God after I formed an argument to disprove God (which seemed convincing).

At a point, it almost seemed, that both all out nihilism and totally valueless world was the true nature, and that no God existed. But it was that moment I realized I was giving up vision of the truth I had all a long, something higher we are connected to.

It brought be to Deism, but brought to me to a greater faith in the unseen connection and vision then ever.  So I decided to give religion another go. And the wonders of the book began to unravel because my mind understood a lot of the emphasized signs and proofs regarding the Oneness of God and his existence.

And than it pointed to more arguments. And it put it a better framework the moral argument, etc, it put in better words.

You know it's 100% true because you witnessed that is how I came back to faith.

I know very well Atheists can do compassionate actions, not so sure if they deny the nature of goodness if their actions can be considered good, but they can do many acts of compassion, gratitude, respect, and of love for sure.  I am searching the answer if an action can be considered good without belief in the true nature of goodness.

But I just want to see you justify framework of our humanity that no human does without the framework of Atheism. If you can justify any of the above in the framework of Atheism, I will leave Theism, because my Theism is built on the impossibility justify any of these things from the framework of Atheism.

If our explaining being an atheist sways you from your core beliefs you must not believe very much. Also the act of being good and the act of being bad are both human nature and part of our instincts just like wanting water or food. It's the way our brain works.

You don't know how much I wanted to believe we can be justified in any of this while I was an Atheist for that week I was. If you can justify it do it. Saying it's simply how we are, won't cut it.

And yes my faith is falsifiable to this degree. That if you can prove any of these things to be justified, than my faith will fall apart.
