I'm always presuming things. I also don't think before I speak.
Kalaam Cosmological Argument - Another theory added to my glossary, thanks.
Something HAD to have created it. I can't fathom anything else. And I know, just because I can't fathom doesn't mean it's not possible.
No one's perfect.
You might be right about the something (or you might not), but it's a long way from something to someone, though. There's actually a specific fallacy for people who reject something because they can't personally fathom it: the Argument from Incredulity; aka, I can't believe it so it must not be true!

I give up. I will never understand atheism. It just seems like a sad life. And I know you guy's don't see it that way, and you probably think I'm stupid or delusional or both, but I can't help it. I just can't let go. Maybe it's the fact that if I created something and taught it for years and years to become something exceptional, and it went out into the world and completely undermined all that I'd taught it, then I went ahead and died to save it...I'd be a little miffed if it didn't show even the smallest bit of gratitude. And not only that but, turn it's back on me and say I didn't exist.
I've learned a few things from you guys so thank you for the conversation (even thought you were secretly making fun of me).
Bye,

Literally, if we don't see it that way, we're not sad, at least no more than any other group. Sad is a state of mind, you should take our word about our state of mind; we'd do the same for you.
All we have of a supposed sacrifice is unsubstantiated stories, and how much of a sacrifice is it if you don't stay dead anyway? Do you suppose Krishna is miffed at you for not believing in him?
You're welcome, and personally, I never made fun of you. Hope you come by again sometime.
I'm not anti-Christian. I'm anti-stupid.
