I hear all the time there is the bundle of evidence for no God. Whenever i ask for it they dodge answering. I really want to hear the evidence i am not going to argue my belief i just want to know yours.

The only answer you need in understanding "burden of proof", because I am becoming tired of continuously explaining it in a way that will eventually lead me to having carpal tunnel syndrome.

Where precisely are you hearing this? All of the atheists of my acquaintance don't claim that there is evidence for no god, but that there is a lack of evidence for ANY god.

Quote:Whenever i ask for it they dodge answering.

You may be mistaking 'dodging' for 'people keep declining to answer nonsensical questions.'

Quote:I really want to hear the evidence i am not going to argue my belief i just want to know yours.

Kind of a weasel, but ok.

I lack a belief in gods (all of them, not just yours) for the following reasons, among others:

1. There is no evidence that gods exist.

2. All of the arguments for the existence of gods are either weak, specious, or both.

3. There is nothing - literally nothing - that is not better explained naturalistically that by appeals to the supernatural.

Have a lovely day.

For the record, I LOVED your introductory post.

I'm not sure who said there's a bundle of evidence to disprove god. Not that atheists even need to come up with evidence. Religious people need to give us reason to believe. All they really have is a book, which I'm sure many other religions have. The bible doesn't really mesh well with reality, so the one source the christians have is flawed.

No, I don't have evidence that Yahweh/Jesus isn't real, anymore than I have evidence for all the other gods not being real. I'm not too concerned about it, though.

The only evidence for no god is the lack of evidence for god.

God! I'm a 29 year old female who is unmarried and not a virgin. I take your name in vain every god-damned day and have broken a number of your commandments. You're an evil, misogynistic, genocidal piece of shit and you're not worthy of mention, let alone respect or worship.

Strike me down now to prove to your followers and everyone else that you exist. I dare YOU!





Nope, still here.
