It's a stance that ultimately is neutral to what is the true nature of a human (for example, whether it's spiritual or not).

For example, weak Atheists would say they don't know if they have a real soul in the sense religious believe.

It's ok to not know. But What I don't understand, is the assumption no human can know they are soul, simply because you don't.

I can say you have no soul because that is what the evidence tells us. You may think you have a soul. But you are wrong.

My conclusion in weak Atheism, is they are trying to give intelligence and knowledge to a stance of ignorance.

But it isn't ignorance. It is looking at the evidence and making conclusions based on the actual facts and not what makes you feel better.

None of us in our lives I think weren't Atheists in the weak sense. We all wondered at some point in our lives, if God truly exists or not, and were inclined one way or another, but didn't really believe one way or another.

I have never believed in a god. My wondering about god is just how can people believe the incredibly silly thing.

It was a theory I understood and assumed possible, before even hearing it (I was 6 years old when I asked "why does the world have to be created, if God can exist always, why not the universe?").

But I know then there could be so many reasons that I don't know which is why I brought up to my parents who didn't have a good answer.

I even realized then, they weren't to guide me regarding this, if I were to know the truth regarding it.

6 years old. Some people never grow up though Tongue

Indeed, some people just keep believing in santa.



You can fix ignorance, you can't fix stupid.

Surely preaching goes against the prime directive?

God...... this is so bad. I'd put this in the hall of shame but then I'd end up spamming it with 100% of your post content.

So when I made that argument for real wizards, with real magic, it was meant to both be satire and to demonstrate that it was no worse than your own argument...

But after all this, you take its conclusion fucking seriously?

Wut? No form of atheism even addresses the matter of souls and atheism is perfectly compatible with believing in souls. Most of us don't, because we tend to be more rational than theists, and without belief in God there doesn't seem to be much of a point, but there's nothing incompatible about it. Atheism has nothing to do with souls. Atheism is about one issue and one issue only.

If we perceived it we'd know it and if we knew it we'd believe it.

So that's bullshit.

It's not about me. The sooner you understand your issue is with God's proofs and hence God, you will know the problem.

Proofs? You haven't proved anything and you know it. When I question your premises, and ask you to reformulate your argument, you run for the hills. Yesterday proved that. You're a coward.

I decided to train my cats not to eat and just when I had them all trained up the fucking things all died.
It's amazing 'science' always seems to 'find' whatever it is funded for, and never the oppsite. Drich.

Yup

WTF

Quote:It's very rational in fact to say if we are soul, it would be one of the more apparent things to realize.
Not really no


Quote:My conclusion in weak Atheism, is they are trying to give intelligence and knowledge to a stance of ignorance.
Then it's a bad conclusion 


Quote:I don't know is fine. But to make it the staying place.  
Till you have a reason think otherwise it is rational


Quote:None of us in our lives I think weren't Atheists in the weak sense. We all wondered at some point in our lives, if God truly exists or not, and were inclined one way or another, but didn't really believe one way or another.
That's too simple

It was a theory I understood and assumed possible, before even hearing it (I was 6 years old when I asked "why does the world have to be created, if God can exist always, why not the universe?").
And then you apparently went nuts

Uh huh  Dodgy

Quote:6 years old. Some people never grow up though [Image: tongue.gif]
Yes you clearly never grew up  Tongue

Quote:No rather I see how you guys react and try to avoid the truth. And it's convenient how you guys just label it all babble after the discussion is over.
Or there is the more obvious fact that it is babble even during the supposed discussion (you ranting us correcting your ranting at least bits that make any kind of sense) and the fact you have no truth for us to avoid

 
Quote:You choose ignorance instead of the leap of faith necessary which is just holding to the truth with the heart and embracing it with full submission over irrational doubt and it's loud unclean whispers.
Yeah I'm the irrational one for not blindly leaping to belief in magic for no reason.  Dodgy

If MK has backed off from claiming that we all secretly believe and know he's right and his arguments are all sound, that would be a lot less cray. I hope he can hold that thought.

RE: My conclusions about weak Atheism.
It's part of the twelver confirmation complex.  He won't stop believing that unless he loses his faith.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
