Quote:No, lack of belief is not a choice. Possessing belief or not, however, is.Going to have to agree to disagree here. Because this will only end up in circles.
Quote:This is where we differ on opinions; I believe that God is a part of you, so to claim thatyou do not believe in God is a lie to you and I; from MY point of view, at least.Indeed, this is where our opinions differ greatly. I don't believe that a god exists and so I don't believe he is part of me or anything. So that's another agree to disagree.
Quote:You say you don't believe me, which is a denial of belief; you are denying that you believe, I am proposing that you do.I'm not denying belief, I have no belief (I think I'd know myself better than you do). I don't think it's true. I don't believe that a god exists. Also, do you really believe that I have belief in god? Because if you do then you are dead wrong. I've never believed in god. I find it hard to understand how anyone can believe it.
Another agree to disagree.
Quote:I refuse to accept it because it is not what I have found to be the truth.Your free as you know to believe in whatever you wish.
One thing I have found in this little discussion old chap is that our opinions differ so grealty that they are in complete opposite directions to each other.
Want a cup o' tea old boy?
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.
