Why is Christianity false and Atheism true?

Christianity is a religion, atheism is a lack of a belief in any religion.

One is an organization which makes claims the other is a lack of a belief in god, neither are claims withing themselves therefore neither can be true or false.

Your question makes no sense.

It is like asking "Is priest true?" or "Is Russia true?"


Are you ready for the fire? We are firemen. WE ARE FIREMEN! The heat doesn’t bother us. We live in the heat. We train in the heat. It tells us that we’re ready, we’re at home, we’re where we’re supposed to be. Flames don’t intimidate us. What do we do? We control the flame. We control them. We move the flames where we want to. And then we extinguish them.

Impersonation is treason.

Christianity is a lack of belief in any non-religion.

Atheism is a position held by people who BELIEVE there is no God.
And it is more "faith-based" and unsubstantiated than any other form of worldview about God and the soul and the afterlife.

I don't believe there are purple unicorns living on Jupiter either. Is that also faith based?

No it makes other specific claims beyond that your definition is false.

Nope. Christianity is lack of belief in only one non-religion: Christianity itself. You disbelieve in Buddhism and Hinduism and Islam, right? As far as those belief systems go, you're just as much an atheist as I am.

The big difference is, the way you look at all those belief systems is the same way I look at Christianity.

Your question makes no sense and you're still continuing to ask it.
