How come atheists would say if God were real and appeared to them or if they died and were brought into the presense of God.
They would curse and spite in his face. yet they won't do that if they were brought into the presense of ISIS?
As for the first part, most atheists will say that because the god that they are often being told about meeting comes off like a boorish jerk at best, and a sadistic doucheturd the rest of the time. Being cursed and spit at is the nicest thing that he should expect. But since that asshole can't possibly exist, I don't think it's much of a concern.
"Well, evolution is a theory. It is also a fact. And facts and theories are different things, not rungs in a hierarchy of increasing certainty. Facts are the world's data. Theories are structures of ideas that explain and interpret facts. Facts don't go away when scientists debate rival theories to explain them. Einstein's theory of gravitation replaced Newton's in this century, but apples didn't suspend themselves in midair, pending the outcome. And humans evolved from ape- like ancestors whether they did so by Darwin's proposed mechanism or by some other yet to be discovered."
