Atheists... why do you believe that God doesn't exist?

It mystifies me that so many intelligent people swallow this hocus pocus. I think even Einstein was a believer, FFS. Talk about blind faith.

Whatever that means, other than that you can't provide reasoning what distinguishes belief in the supernatural from belief in supernatural entities, which you claim are not the same, nor a belief in any given supernatural entity with no evidence from beliefs in any other supernatural entity with no evidence.

Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.

Still not bothering to read then rumpy Who the hell cares? ... Is the point. Your question is totally irrelevant Problem: supernatural entities do not exist in nature Question from moron: why are they different in this respect
You might as well have put 'don't' instead of 'doesn't' in your title. Your grammar should match such a fallacious question begging title and poll.
If the hypothetical idea of an afterlife means more to you than the objectively true reality we all share, then you deserve no respect.

You claim your belief in one specific supernatural entity is rational, and belief in other supernatural entities is irrational, but cannot substantiate why.

You do the exact same this you moan about atheists doing: reject supernatural claims lacking evidence. This entire thread is dedicated to a special pleading argument demanding evidence to disbelieve in the supernatural, when you yourself don't have any evidence to disbelieve supernatural claims you reject. Congrats on the failed thread, and showing just how fallacious your reasoning is. RE: Atheists... why do you believe that God doesn't exist?

I have never made such an error. By asking the question you are making that error. Do you understand? You cannot be this stupid.

Well you've proved that you have little understanding of the English language or logical fallacy, so this would be a rare catch for you. So how do you think the question should have been worded? Atheists... why do you believe that God don't exist? Atheists... why don't you believe that God exists? 1. That's not correct English 2. The point of the question is to discover an actual belief that God doesn't exist. This is what some atheists in another thread were insisting was the majority position, was my opinion. I didn't want to know what atheists 'didn't' believe. Reply or not, there is no reply. (April 27, 2014 at 3:42 pm)fr0d0 Wrote:(April 27, 2014 at 3:30 pm)Rampant.A.I. Wrote: You do the exact same this you moan about atheists doing: reject supernatural claims lacking evidence. This is simply false. A supernatural entity may leave natural evidence. It's being supernatural only means that some aspects of it cannot be explained naturally. A rock that supernaturally produces gold when you rub it would leave plenty of natural evidence in the form of gold. It sounds like you're making up your own definition of the word supernatural. Even God could leave behind natural evidence in the form of healed amputees. I think you're confused. |
