Yeah I just changed it to something else to be more creative.

Doesn't mean that I'm a troll, though.

Why do atheists have aversion to the fact that there is an afterlife and that there is a god?

Does any atheists care to respond?

Why should I trust a god that would torture and murder his own son because the neighbor's kids misbehaved? That is never a good idea.
God thinks it's fun to confuse primates. Larsen's God!

That statement is so general that it can pertain to every ongoing religion. "Join my religion, and you get good stuff in the next life. I pinky swear". You think every religion doesn't already have that slogan?

I just purchased a LED torch, don't need that.

Quote:a god that will help you through dark times.

See above

How can you have an aversion to something that has absolutely no evidence for its existence ?
You may just as well say non believers in Thor have an aversion to Thor and Asgard.

Only to laugh at the stupidity of you assertion.

 No I'm not a poe; I'm a Christian wanting atheists to explain their position.

Your god... and all gods invented by the human brain..are bullshit.  There.  You have your explanation.

Well, just because you don't see something doesn't mean that it doesn't exist..... I mean you can't see radio waves; so, according to your belief, that means they don't exist either, am i right?

Are you 12

To Member Nimbus.

Two points.

1)  You have made certain claims in this thread, e.g., a particular god exists, this god does certain things, humans have an afterlife.  That's fine.  However, you provide no evidence to support your claims.  As such these claims are typically called "mere assertions".  In rational discourse, the person making a positive claim has the burden of proof/evidence/persuasion regarding those claims.  So far, you have not met this burden.  In rational discourse, your mere assertions can be tentatively rejected unless and until you meet your burden of proof/evidence/persuasion.  This is how rational/critical thinking proceeds.

2)  Most theists, regardless of the particular religion into which they identify, were indoctrinated with the relevant religious tenets, traditions and dogma since childhood, usually by trusted adults such as parents, religious leaders and others.  In addition, most theists also experience peer pressure from other members of the particular religion (i) to maintain that religion's beliefs and faith, (ii) to avoid other persons who do not share the same beliefs and (iii) to avoid topics which might challenge the various religious tenets, traditions and dogma.

Short version:  You merely assert.  I suspect you have yet to acknowledge, quantify or question decades of religious indoctrination and related peer pressure to which you have been exposed.

Not really his own Son is He? Think about it.

Fathered by the Holy Ghost, NOT The Lord God Almighty. I'm thinking after reading all that Trinity explanation stuff we had posted here Jesus is more like the Lord God Almighty's nephew.

Scripture is REALLY clear, Holy Ghost did the deed to Virgin Mary. To imply Holy Ghost had God's seed with Him, (instead of His own) is pretty twisted.
 The granting of a pardon is an imputation of guilt, and the acceptance a confession of it.
