Theists, tell me, an atheist, why your God has neglected to show himself to me?

The almighty creator of the heavens can't stand up to "negative ideas", apparently...but if that were the case, how did it penetrate your arrogance?  This seems like a non-answer.

Quote:In other words: look at they skies then ask yourself: is there a creator?
Is the sky supposed to say something in response, or?  

Quote:The arrogance accusation comes from the answer to that question; one might answer: 

-No creator; because they the world is evolved around themselves or hence:their specie. They want to be God; and want to feel the drug  of "control".

-There is a creator; One just gave up ambitions of control; and surrendered to the truth; neglecting their own role because the world simply doesn't evolve around them. 
It comes straight from your asshole, lol.  Betcha five bucks that the only crazy in this room whose ever thought of either, is yourself.  Twisted, case in point. You;re positivel;y compelled to frame non-belief as a moral defect marching lock step with your particular tribal beliefs about submission and autonomy and righteousness. To an outsider, you sound like a frothing lunatic - imaging weird shit about the people around you that is probably only true of your own august self.



Quote:Splendid!
Using the same technology, we can see the universe being created; making the suggestion of an organised pattern that formed its atoms a very reasonable suggestion; even scientific and smart.
......but we don't see any gods, so?  Look, if you have a godometer just hand it over.  

Quote:At this point I agree with atheists a lot; and part ways with many theists, I need to admit more and more that religious figures picture God as a product of their own fantasies or even a tool to achieve the interest in mind.

Defying these twisted images seems like common sense to me; but I'm still insisting that one correct description of God is missed out by atheism; and just like the rest of humanity: atheism itself took an extreme step towards a misty road.

I know I'm twisted. But I know exactly who caused that to me. And I'm being quite truthful when I say that only God heard me, and helped to cure my wounds.
So, like, you didn't have cancer..and now, praise allah..you still don't have cancer?  

Quote:He revealed books in human language, and sent human prophets. 
Magic books and fortune tellers don't tell -me- anything about a god.

Quote:Sycophancy can only be seen shameful when it's paid to systems and other creations; bowing to kings and flags is quite shameful but not to the creator of the universe.
Bootlicking is bootlicking.  It doesn't matter whose boot you lick.

Quote:Justice is where we pay to the appropriate side. Who said that all the religious respect God? it appears to me that they respect and pay to their local Church or mosque; local Sheikh or priest.
You're off on a tangent here, but okay?

I see the disconnect, Atlas. We're trying to correct your misrepresentation of real-world physics, while you are trying to shoehorn it into bad poetry and deflect onto irrelevancies. There is nothing to be gained by talking past each other in this way.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist.  This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair.  Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second.  That means there's a situation vacant.'

Aha........

God does not show itself to humans as god has no need to prove it exists to a mere mortal which is why god advises man it must only be believed on faith and we therefore don't see a need to prove it exists nor can we.

Note: That is the fundamental truth of our religion so please ignore the millions of posts we make trying to prove it exists and why.

One would think that there'd be no need to look for an omnipresent thing.

It'd kind of stand out by being pretty much every where.
