Quote:I'd like to ask any agnostics or atheist, who have previously believed in a God, what Paradoxes in Christianity, or any religion, could you identify that caused reasonable doubt?
I have not an do not claim my disbelief is due to many of the many inherent contradictions within Christianity beginning with the most blatantly obvious:The infinite qualities ascribed the Abrahamic god are mutually exclusive.I reject the exceptions used by apologists. IF you are really interested,GOOGLE is your friend.
My atheism is not a choice,or even the result of a single conscious decision. I think of my position as an inevitable conclusion. I spent over 20 years looking for evidence for god.I have never seen any evidence for any supernatural claim made by anyone. That includes the existence of any god(s), revealed truths of all kinds,the soul, the mind as separate from the body,paranormal,fortune telling of any kind,(including biblical prophecy), luck or fate.
I also freely admit the possibility of error. I will believe in gods,unicorns, leprechauns or the Loch Ness monster immediately there is some proof.My standard of proof is that used in the scientific method. I will accept nothing less. I'm aware this may sound arrogant. It's not that I don't want to believe,it's that I'm unable to believe.
