Atheism's God is luck

So you believe in aliens? NO. Aliens are not something one believes in like your god (irony) or the tooth fairy. The likelihood that there are aliens in the cosmos (in whatever form - be it macro- or micro-organisms---even non organic life) is something that one can have an opinion on. If you are trying to argue from design, please do us the favor of at least researching what you're going to say before you say it. Even the BS that comes out of AiG is better formulated than what you are espousing here. Come on. Your lack of knowledge is astounding. Arguments from design, incredulity, etc. are tired and worthless. Bring something new. RE: Atheism's God is luck

I will accept your assessment, but: There is a 50% chance of that creator God being a deist God - not interested in you or anyone else or the planet or, probably, any of the events within the universe. That makes your odd 25% Now there are/have been 4,500 religions with more than 10,000 members on the earth. Each claims it is right and all the others are wrong. There is a finite possibility that none of them are right, of course, that there is a theist God but no-one is worshipping him. Your odds are now slipping to (1/4)*(1/4500) No need to calculate it, because there's more: There are 41,000 different churches - again each claims to be the only true path and that all others are wrong. So your odds are now (1/4)*(1/4500)*(1/41000) or 1 in 738,000,000 Peachy - get praying immediately - but pray you've got the right God because if you are praying to the wrong one you must be really pissing him off. How often do you pray by the way? Probably better to ease off on that - don't want to keep reminding the real God that you are crediting someone else with his work too often. Now - what was it you were saying about luck?

'The more I learn about people the more I like my dog'- Mark Twain
'You can have all the faith you want in spirits, and the afterlife, and heaven and hell, but when it comes to this world, don't be an idiot. Cause you can tell me you put your faith in God to put you through the day, but when it comes time to cross the road, I know you look both ways.' - Dr House “Young earth creationism is essentially the position that all of modern science, 90% of living scientists and 98% of living biologists, all major university biology departments, every major science journal, the American Academy of Sciences, and every major science organization in the world, are all wrong regarding the origins and development of life….but one particular tribe of uneducated, bronze aged, goat herders got it exactly right.” - Chuck Easttom "If my good friend Doctor Gasparri speaks badly of my mother, he can expect to get punched.....You cannot provoke. You cannot insult the faith of others. You cannot make fun of the faith of others. There is a limit." - Pope Francis on freedom of speech (February 27, 2014 at 3:48 pm)JesusLover1 Wrote: Wow so you believe in aliens. You have the audacity to act incredulous towards other people's beliefs, yet your username indicates you're infatuated with a magical man that supposedly walked on water and rose from the dead. You just vaporized my irony meter.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

I'm just interested as someone new here, are you doubting your faith (being on Atheist Forums....)? Are you just up for a fight (not exactly a wise move)? Are you attempting to have some kind of influence over everybody here? Sorry, it just strikes me that this is the most inappropriate place to make some of the comments you have done.
Feel free to be honest.
