Religion = Horseshit

[rabidfurby]

Do you have any evidence which supports your hypothesis?

Even calling it a hypothesis gives it too much credit - it doesn't make any predictions, and therefore it can never be tested. "Bunch of shit me and my friends made up to explain things we don't understand" fits much better.

That's true. I never thought of it like that...

Sure he is, but then Joel is wildly dishonest, a proven liar, time and again. He's as bad as Gene.

But he has great taste in music

Why thank you.

I'm a dishonest proven jew liar time and again, as bad as Gene the Christian Anarchist.

I've already disproven the concept of God. See above.

Something which is held to be invisible and immaterial, and that cannot be sensed in any manner whatsoever, and lacks any logical argument for its existence can be considered non-existent.

"There are unicorns on the moon."

"Bullshit!"

"No--really."

"Okay--prove it."

"Well, you can't see them or sense them in any way whatsoever. But, I know they are there."

"?...!"

Richard, go fist yourself in the ass. Your posts are fucking worthless, and so are you. You have failed to prove anything, or you'd be talking to a bunch of your co-religionists. As it is, you're such a goddamned toolbag you have a picture of your pubic hair as your avatar. You have no business talking about anything with anyone. And what defies logic is how you think an "existence that defies logic" can somehow be responsible for a system that adheres so consistently to logic and the fundamental laws of physics that we can make accurate predictions about celestial events like eclipses and the arrival of comets centuries, even millennia out. This is your devastating critique of the atheist position? You don't even understand your own arguments when you make them, you fucking dipshit.

Sometimes I wonder if you sleazy atheists even realize that you simply pick and choose the more ridiculous statements attributed to "God", just to try to make your case stronger. I've proven the existence of "God" on here a few times already, both in this thread and others I've made in the past. How many times do I have to tell you boneheads that the foundation for "God" is simply the obvious manifestation of an existence that defies logic? If you guys think you are so smart, then I want to see you develop a functioning solar system that is multi-tasking to the extreme.

If you cannot see such things as evidence of a "higher power", then you guys must have some sort of brain damage. LOL. You guys have no business talking about these things, if you cannot even acknowledge what a "Higher Power" means.

I believe in God, and I don't think you proved his existence.

[anarchir]

I still dont see any religious argument that stands any ground. And it is impossible for one to do so I believe.

Believe in your blind faith.

It seems that instead of offering logical arguments all you can do is insult atheists? Am I wrong?

You have not proven anything of the sort. Your proof does not proof the existence of a God, it merely provides cover for your primate-level superstitions which were ingrained into you since you were a child. I am unimpressed. Maybe that makes me a "bonehead".

If you guys think you are so smart, then I want to see you develop a functioning solar system that is multi-tasking to the extreme.

This is irrelevant

You have presented no evidence of a higher power's existence. You have only vomited forth bigotry and supposed self-evident truths which are just nonsense dressed up as argument. You have not backed up any of your claims sufficiently.

I have NOTHING against religious people. My parents are religious, I've dated religious people and I do NOT consider myself an atheist. However, I am sad that you have thus far offered no convincing evidence whatsoever to support your deity hypothesis. : (

[mikehz]

People don't buy into religion based on reason and logic. They do so because they are indoctrinated from birth, and are told that it is a sin to even question what they are told.  Later, as an adult, if such questions pop into their mind, their mental blocks come up automatically. "Uh oh--better not even consider that. I don't want to burn in hell!"

Sleazy?

I missed this proof. Do you have a link to it, or could you repeate it?

Does existence defy logic? Why? And even if it did, why would the manifestation of an existence that defies logic prove that God exists?

The solar system "multi-tasks"?

Of course they are not evidence of a higher power. The fact that, for instance, it is highly inprobable that an organ such as an eye, or something like the immune system, could come about randomly, by luck or accident, doesn't prove that God exists, because God is not the only alternative: Gradual evolution explains such things, too. Meanwhile given that it is very improbable that highly, highly complex things can just pop into existence by luck, it is very improbable that something as complex as God could just come to exist. So God is highly improbable.

Richard's position is that God is "the sublime."  Therefore, God exists of necessity since the sublime exists.

I could define God as a platter of lasagna and prove its existence the same way.

Good example... except that God's existence would be briefer the closer He was to me, if God were a lasagne!

[Pvincent87]

Just because you can accurately predict certain things does not mean that existence does not still defy logic. If existence was completely logical, then you atheist brainiacs would have applied your precious logic, and figured everything out by now.

Richard, I think you have completely neglected to offer a single argument to support your cause. Instead of countering our points you simply insult us. You still have offered no evidence to support your deity hypothesis.

How is it logical that the world appears flat, and yet, it is not flat? This illusion manifested itself so well that it took a very long time for humans to figure out that the world is not flat, even though it looks flat. That is an example of an illogical manifestation. Even though we know that the world is not flat, the brain STILL makes you perceive that it is flat, and that is illogical, too.

.....really?

[Pvincent87]

This quote is an example of Mike's insanity.

Loooooots of people switch to a different religion, later in life, without any worries of going to hell, and what not....or just completely give up on religion altogether. Mike, were you raised a Christian? Then how come "indoctrination from birth" did not hold on for you?

I think you're the one who is insane. You believe something you cannot sense from a holy book which has thousands of contradictions in it. It seems you're the loony because you cannot even form a LOGICAL ARGUMENT or even a coherent thought yet you think you're making brilliant points?

This isn't a public school classroom. We're not going to let you get away with bigoted gibberish and simply nod our heads and agree. Now did you have a point to make?
