Atheists have no burden of proof - they aren't out to prove that something exists. The burden of proof remains, as it always has, with those who assert its existence. An atheist would not even have a stake in the argument if those who assert this existence did not do so.
This is instead an atheist's appeal to rationality.

That's a straw man, and I don't even know what half of these big words mean.
Either way once trump is elected we are going to build a fucking wall.
Atheists are so thin-skinned. Theists at least believe they will be proven right someday, and can handle criticism. Atheists know they will never get the satisfaction of being "proven" right, which is why they desperately try to beat theists in arguments, because they will never really be satisfied with theological discourse.
So they congregate in their atheist hugboxes, get their "deserved" affirmation for their virtue signaling, and shaming the oh so evil presence of organized religion. However, their ego getting stroked isn't enough. They want the satisfaction of seeing hope leave the eyes of theists like it left their's. They can't let other people be happy, they have to try to make them as miserable as they are so they don't feel left out. In the end, theists are usually pretty alright with not talking about their faith, or trying to convince anyone they are right.
Christians debate this topic, but most I meet think that the only requirement to get into heaven is being a good person. They don't want to argue for the most part. They show restraint, and patience, and want others to know that Christ loves them despite their non-belief. Atheists literally have a problem with this.

I'm a moral absolutist - I'm as far from a relativist as you can possibly be. You can't define evidence though.
Determine for me if the following premises are evidence for the claim that comes after it.

p2) A clam whose shell perfectly matches that indention sits very close to that indention
p3) You believe you saw the clam in that indention, and that you moved the clam from that indention to where it now sits

>OP and the other Godcucks here show you're wrong. And a dumbass.
OP made a thread talking to other theists, so of course when atheists join the thread the theists who were invited are going to talk about their faiths

That's a very simplistic way of looking at it. I expect better from you.
It's not about "only mine": it's about the one that makes the most sense.

Or what if I suffer a traumatic accident and become retarded, do I go to heaven/hell in my deficient state? Or do I revert back to a previous state? How do people who are unable to experience pain or emotions go through suffering in hell, and do people who feel less pain than others get an unfair advantage?

And yet their modus operandi relies on "muh feels" and conveniently ignoring truths they don't like/don't fit the narrative. These are the exact traits you can observe in this very thread from people defending religion.
In other words, feminists, BLM folk etc. are not atheists. They're very religious, they just have a religion of their own which isn't Christianity.

It's inconclusive, which is why I'd look for more evidence and try to form more premises. See, not so hard, is it, you dumb monkey? Now show me some evidence, however you want to define it, of Earth being 10k years old. I want to laugh some more, it's like watching a chimp in the zoo.
>>71615334
I'm not talking about religion though. I'm talking about theism. I consider progressivism to be an atheistic religion.
>>71615458
You would you say you're Protestant? Also do you think Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox are orthodox Christian?
I usually call myself a skeptic, if anyone asks. (secular society; nobody asks)

>>71615464
To be clearer, I am talking about religion as well. However, I brought up that these non-theist people who are not self-efficient and still flock to religion.
I just don't think God exists. If it, or one, does that's pretty neat. I'm not a shitty person so if it is real I hope it will take some mercy and understand my skepticism.

Anyway, light came into being by a process we alredy identified. Not on a single place in that process was "let there be light". So if light exist in a certain way and god created it, then god must have done something comletly different then whats written in a bible.
See, I can spell it out for you as if you were an elementary school kid. Which again brings up a question of the state of american elementary schools... which seems to be worst then I thought... And I didn't thought it was any great to begin with.

In short: it doesn't. Humans are social animals and prefer to go towards familiarity and others who could hold similar views.
But truth =/= familiarity.

It isn't. You're starting from far too narrow a view.
>Becouse if protestans are right then catholics are wrong, even though they worship the same shit.
Nope. That's humans being idiots.
>Also, it is not about "what makes the most sense", it is about evidence.
Naturally - but I excluded that one because I took it for granted that you would know that.
>>71615242
>Are religions even making sense? Like infinite punishment for finite crime... or all hindus babys straight to purgatory for no reason, done by "loving" god...
>infinite hell

This is what I mean. You're starting from something too narrow. This is American-baptist tier.
>or that hte mind that conceived, planned through and created whole universe from subatomic particles to galaxy clusters is interested in my masturbation habits...
You're seeing it from a human lens. If God was interested in your sexual habits, would it not be because they were bad for you in the long run?
You're seeing God like some kind of moral king policeman thing.
>or likes the smell of burnt bovine...
You're thinking of "a pleasing aroma to the Lord" in the sense of "God likes the smell of this", instead of "this smells nice and is dedicated to God".
Even then, understand that:
Genesis and much of Exodus - stories
Leviticus, Deuteronomy, Numbers etc - cultural, hygiene, etc of a day without sanitation, etc. Building a culture of non-waste, non-selfishness, and so on.
>well, if this makes sense to you then congrats, you totally shifted your mind to another dimension.
Or you're simplifying it. Speak to a well-versed priest on these things if you're speaking of a specific religion (i.e., not Protestant).
>>71615460
Oh I see what you mean. Heaven is paradise period - that goes for any soul. I'm not going to pretend to speculate on the specific mechanics of what that means, since the Bible has incredibly little to say about them.
It's the ultimate end of all human life to be with God, either way.
Brain dead people who are so their whole lives must get some reality in which they're not so in order to be able to be judged. They have to have thoughts and actions in order to be judged for them.
>>71615464
>I'm talking about theism
So what's the point of arguing in favor of a higher power when it doesn't interfere in our lives whatsoever? Is there intelligent design? I don't believe so, but I'm not ruling it out 100% either. I just think it's a waste of time trying to either prove or disprove it.
>>71615463
>relativism to the scientific method

>>71615509
I'd say I'm Protestant, yeah. They have all the sufficient beliefs to be Christian - Christ is the Son of God, died on a cross for our sins, rose again, etc - so yes. The issue I have with them is they add a whole slew of absurdities on ex nihilo.
>>71615552

>>71615719
I love how the only thing atheists can offer are retards like Dawkins and Hitchens who have tantrums on stage whining about atheism. It sad how you guys have to use the label of reasonable and logical yet you can't employ either when arguing against Christianity. Heck , you don't argue you just state your opinion. Learn how to make an argument.
>>71615670
No. That's an absurd belief. The path is narrow.
>>71615646
>Where in the world do you get that
"You can't define evidence" - your words. Pic related is someone who argues on your own level, maybe try taking your relativist bullshit to Tumblr?
Just because you keep saying you're not a relativist doesn't make it so.
>>71615631
Complete non-sequitur. I was arguing that atheists still flock to find some kind of "higher power" without this so called self-sufficiency.
>So what's the point of arguing in favor of a higher power when it doesn't interfere in our lives whatsoever?
When was I ever doing that?
>>71615779
That's pretty much why I stopped arguing with them for fun. It soon becomes pretty empty and dull.
>>71615867
That's not relativism - I'm pointing out that you can't do it. And so far you've demonstrated I was correct in saying that, as you haven't been able to do so.
>>71615566
I can start wherever I want. My arguments are rock solid.
Also, do you really believe that my masturbation is so bad on a cosmic scale of things that god must have warned me about it? And if yes, what does it say about the creation?
Isn't it just a terrible smugness, to think that human and his behavior has an importance on a cosmic scale?
Also - what is the key do discern what in a bible are "stories" and what is "holy word of god"?
Also, you still didn't told me how can I tell that your god is truth and krishna isn't.
No argument, like all the others... just talk, talk talk, without any substance. You should provide proof for your god or stfu.
>>71615923
Which god?
>>71615807
I don't know. There is this cancer going around with CS Lewis 'mere Christianity' nonsense. Where you just pick the church you like and ask questions about theology and its adherence to the Bible later.
This movement to bind Evangelicals, Roman Catholics and Eastern Orthodox together when there is little that holds together. It certainly isn't the gospel. Can I recommend you research Reformed theology? It would help you in your understanding of the Bible, church history and apologetics. Also see the video I posted before.
>>71615724
> They have all the sufficient beliefs to be Christian - Christ is the Son of God, died on a cross for our sins, rose again, etc - so yes
No they don't.
Galatians 2:15-21 read it.
The gospel message is that Jesus is God incarnate and he came as per the prophesy to live a sinless life and die for all who would believe (or where elected/predestined to believe) and atone for their sins. You take on this atonement of sin by having faith.
Ergo since they have compromised on justification by faith and ergo the gospel they aren't my brothers in Christ. Yet I would make that compromise with Pentecostals, Anglicans, Lutherans, Baptists and Methodists.
The root cause of this movement is the spread of Arminianism (which is just closet Romanism).
Romanism and Easternism both teach work salvation. I.e. not complete faith on Jesus's work on the cross. So our soteriology are very different.
>>71615923
You do realize, I hope, that not a single physicist in the history of humanity had Jesus or Allah or Jahwe or whatever in mind when they say "God"? Even Newton, who studied the Bible obsessively, didn't subscribe to the Christian doctrine.

>Also, do you really believe that my masturbation is so bad on a cosmic scale of things that god must have warned me about it?
Again, would it not be that masturbation -- if bad -- is something you should avoid, not because it angers God (how you're looking at it) but because it's better not to do it (another view)?
>Isn't it just a terrible smugness, to think that human and his behavior has an importance on a cosmic scale?
You're the only one thinking that.
>Also - what is the key do discern what in a bible are "stories" and what is "holy word of god"?
There's huge sections on this that you can read available all over the place. Again, you can ask a priest for recommendations.
>Also, you still didn't told me how can I tell that your god is truth and krishna isn't.
There's multiple factors that could be discussed, here. Discussing their characteristics, stories, and the doctrines of them. But again, you're getting caught up in the stories to begin with and so you're causing yourself to be very unhappy.
>You should provide proof for your god or stfu.
You spoke to me. That's pretty rude of you, isn't it? You don't walk up to someone who's having a conversation and tell them to stfu.

It takes a lot of time and effort to debate christians to be honest. They all have completely different interpretations of Christianity, ranging from the objectively false 6,000 year old Earth biblical literalists to vague spiritualistic views not even recorded in the Bible. You have to dedicate a large amount of time and energy just figuring out what their particular form of belief is. I will say that the people who unironically think they "own atheists" in debates are fedora tier, typically southern United States rednecks with bad hygiene. Only a small step above the obese neckbeard "le enlightened" fedoras. Actually, that goes for anyone that brags about "lol xD I own at debating my opposition they're so dumb". Or "I have 165 iq and you're not even HALF as smart as me I WUZ in college an shieeetttt." Atheists are thin-skinned though. So if you just like making people upset, go for it. All you need to do is say "atheists believe an explosion from nothing magically created everything" or "YOU CANT PROVE GOD DOESNT EXIST" and you will get responses.

I'm more educated than most priests. And I'm *far* more reflective. I don't mean to say that to float my own boat, I say it because to say otherwise would be dishonest. The largest issue with Catholicism is that it relies on circular logic in the form of
1) apostolic succession is justified by church tradition
2) church tradition is validated by the words of the church hierarchy
3) the words of the church hierarchy are reliable because they are ordained by apostolic succession

It's a matter of presuppositions. There is evidentialist arguments against creationist (see John Leslie, Jonathan Sarfati, Jay Wile) but from a presuppositional perspective atheism can't account for the uniformity of nature and ergo can't justify Darwinism. Also Plantinga's naturalistic argument against evolution. If we came about due to random unguided naturalistic evolution then how can we trust our reasoning abilities which produce this idea (i.e. Darwinism) since we can't be certain of our reasoning faculties.

Well similar reason to why I reject Romanism.
Romanism states that sacred scripture and sacred tradition are equal sources of revelation. Scripture doesn't teach that but their tradition interprets scripture to teach that revelation can come from the Roman church ergo they have made scripture subordinate to them.

Debating on /pol/? Waste of time honestly. You can have discussions and share your views if you see that they are responding well. I have been convinced of a lot of things like that but debates rarely work.
Atheists are not a homogeneous group of people. Neither are theists. This is a very low tier inflammatory engagement thread. There are a lot of those on /pol/ but you need to set the bar higher than smug reaction pictures and the worn out fedora strawman. It's about as effective as posting a westburo baptist church member and saying "This is christianity. This is you".

Yes. You don't understand how justification works in the Roman system. It's by works. Participation in the sacraments and the mass. Which is blasphemous as it undermines the saving power and sacrifice of Jesus. Meanwhile also supposedly putting you in right standing with God.

Yes, that's that objection. It doesn't surprise me that people would want to be able to claim authority and have the luxury of stating their calls on faith are ordained by God, but I certainly find it abhorrent to see my faith subverted and that people would rather listen to some random man rather than read the Word of their God.

It's not by works alone. I've had this conversation to *DEATH* and back with Catholics. They misunderstand the Protestant position, and most Protestants mischaracterize theirs.
Let me give you and example. Someone comes to faith, *real* faith, and dies in the very next moment by some freak occurrence. Both Protestants and Catholics will hold that person will be judged mercifully by God and find themselves in eternity with Him. It's because the *ESSENCE* of salvation is in faith - works are subsidiary to faith. You do good works when you have real faith *NECESSARILY*, unless, of course, you're physically prevented from doing so like in the example.

>They are usually liberal arts majors so pretty much can't hold an argument.
This. The leftist academia establishment churns out nothing but hollow drones, incapable of real thought. They rely mostly on canned and rehearsed responses, but cannot think of original arguments on their own. In short, if their teachers haven't taught them how to answer a certain question, then they can't answer it properly.
Once you hit them with arguments that they haven't been taught how to answer, they either short circuit or resort to juvenile reasoning to somehow do damage control to save face and defend atheism, but mostly to save face.

In such a complex existence, we can actually understand our existence through numbers and can manipulate our world with said numbers.
For the fact we can comprehend anything is nothing short of a miracle, but even greater than that is that we can actually manipulate our surroundings. God created us in his image, not his physical image, but in his image as a creator, something that can understand and manipulate math to change the existence around us.

Why are you worrying so much about this? All you're doing is being rude.
There's a term I'm looking for, but I can't find it, which I feel answers this in some detail.
Basically, it's the same God that people are trying to grasp, it's just that people have altered it throughout their own time according to customs, language, time, and so on -- and this is the/a valid experience and definition of God as it keeps to the essentials. It may have errors, but these are not errors of God, but humankind.
I think it starts with a p. Or s. Or t. Sorry, I can't recall it. I tried looking but to no avail right now. I think Augustine uses it.

Legit discussion, not trying to argue anything here with my following question, I am simply curious.
How do Atheists explain life? How do chemicals begin to work together to create a living being? Why has it occurred so rarely in the observable universe, with our tiny speck of dust in the great everything being the only known example? Why did the cell that crawled forth from the first life decide to create others like it, that worked together as one being with one mind as a multicellular organism? How does evolution do that?
Mind you, I do believe in Evolution, I just find it mind blowing and I always wanted to discuss it with you guys and never had the chance since it's not politics, but, this thread seems to be the best place to have such a discussion.

I don't know the answers to any of those questions. Abiogenesis is an incredibly daunting theoretical field of science. I am a humble college student chasing the biology dream as of now.
The thing is I admit to acknowledging my lack of knowledge on the subject, and don't presuppose a God figure as an explanation for things I, nor other people, have the answer for. I don't know God didn't do it, but I also don't know if James Bond didn't do it either.

I can't, but considering there's no evidence to suggest that I'm a brain in a vat then I have no reason to assume that I am a brain in a vat.

If you're a brain in a vat, nothing you count as existing actually exists, thus you have nothing that constitutes evidence in the first place.

It just feels like if existence were all just chemicals interacting with each other to create life seems rather convoluted for the way chemicals often work, becoming radically complex and manipulating the world rather than taking the simplest option of reacting and decaying? Life just seems so "Unnatural" to the universe, Big Bang to Big Crunch makes sense, energy exploding and then coming back together. Life just does a whole big weird scribble on the whole formula though, and it's because it's so unnatural that I feel it's super natural. That's also why I believe that Christianity is the most right of the three Abrahamic religions since it's the least "Natural", Judaism appeals to nepotism and tribalism, Islam appeals to domination and violence, though, Christianity is more against nature than the primal appeal of the other two, it promotes sacrifice for others, and forgiving your enemies, something that goes against our survival instinct.

>I have very good reason to not believe in such silly ideas. They do not have any evidence to suggest that they are real
You have no evidence to suggest your senses correspond to real objects, and thus that what you qualify as evidence is itself reliable.

I do not presuppose God. I doubt God. I doubt all baseless truth claims. The objective reality is supported through our baseline, what we observe.

But you only apply that standard for God, not for evidence you fucking moron.
My axioms are wrong for some reason, but yours are somehow infallible, despite having the same origin. God bless your wretched soul. Your are so unbelievably inconsistent. You are the fedora everybody hates.

Its not.
Hinduism is the most ridiculous POS trip-gone-wrong shit fest you can produce.
>>71620115
But not all are Abrahamic.
Sikhs aren't. Hindus aren't.
Confucians (not the shitty Neo-Confucians, but the traditional ones) weren't. Shenists aren't.
And theists of no particular religion aren't.
But, indeed.
Theism != Religion != Abrahamic != Christianity != Literalist != YEC
I wish some understood this. I regard YEC and literalism are cancerous.
And, throughout this whole thing, I've not once stated my religious beliefs.

This is insane, it's like you read a few wikipedia articles on well known western philosophers and now try to use what you've read to somehow argue with people on the internet.
The Cogito Ergo Sum thought experiment is one of the oldest arguments in philosophy, yes, and yet we're still managing to press on. People have continued to develop more sophisticated existences because there is the blunt realization that sitting around trying to base arguments off of "yeah but how do you KNOW thats real" is completely fucking fruitless. Decart didnt say "WAIT guys I'm not sure anythings real", and then suddenly the whole world stopped and just sat in a circle waiting to die because everything is pointless if you can't verify your own existence. No, people realized that forcing your horizons to be limited because of a question that, in the end, is completely pointless (moreso than philosophical questions usually are). It doesn't fucking matter if the whole universe exists inside your head, and your head is inside a jar in a lab in some alien spaceship. This is the life you have, it is pointless to waste it trying to validate that which for a start, is unfalsifiable due to the nature of out existence, but the answer to which in the end doesn't fucking matter. If it turns out you dont exist, then it doesn't matter that you wasted your life.
tl;dr shut the fuck up you smarmy little shit, you braindead halfcocked champ cunt
>>71620178
What standard? There *is no standard*. I don't say your axioms are wrong - I say fuck you I don't give a shit about your baseless opinions. You don't have *ANY* reason why I should use your axioms instead of mine. Which is why you keep slurping that dick day in and out - to fill the void in your Godless world. I think you'd have learned some time after a few thousand it wasn't working though.

>>71620281
Now, Hinduism makes total sense, just talk to a well versed Llama and he will explain it to you.
But christianity? I mean, all people just from one pair? Who have only sons? This is incest, ugly degeneracy and a complete nonsense.
So yeah, Hinduism actually makes more sense then Christianity ever did.
>>71620350
What's insane about it? Why should I *CARE* if it's "insane" or not? I don't buy the skepticism - I just use it against people who don't have an out from it. If you're familiar with the name you keep invoking at all, you ought to know that Descartes gets out of the solipsistic pit with God. I do the same, but for the Godless they have no answer.

Sorry Finny, I'm doing other shit - I'm not constantly monitoring looking for more idiots to baste. Auto-refresh is sufficient.
>>71620299
Sure but athetists almost always argue against god from Abrahamic faiths. Which a moral compassionate god. A creator god is more palusible than the former and usually scientists speak of the latter when they talk about god
>>71620714
Nothing is more wacko than the guy who literally utilizes circular reasoning to justify his beliefs about virtually everything in his life, which is you, Finny-binny~
>>71620663
Well then you should admit that there is no reason to believe that there is any god.
>>71620612
There is something woefully ironic in you calling someone else dogmatic. It is impossible to prove anything as truthful within your framework beyond what you accept as God-validated absolute truth. In your world there are no disagreements because God is always right, in which case it would be impossible to disagree with you since you obviously represent God's position. What a wonderful little fantasy. You have yet to prove your framework is valid, which is what this entire discussion is about. Stop being intellectually dishonest and actually rise to the challenge.
Why should anyone ever want to operate within your framework? Why is your framework valid for discussion about the real world as humans experience it with their senses?
You claim that my framework doesn't interest you, so why should yours?
>>71620709
Do you have an objection to it?
>>71620808
I have plenty of reason to believe in God. Otherwise I wouldn't believe in God.
>>71620764
Well, thats no argument.
What are you even trying to say? That you can't trust that anything is real so you must trust that god is real? What a fuck?

Not all the time, no. There are a lot of scientists of all religions. I mean, they're calling some religious Jew 'the man who will one-up Darwin'.

>>71620810
I operate my life with God as an axiom. I can't instantiate God as existing necessarily, but I never try to. Ever. What you're trying to articulate about my own position is absurd though. Never in my life have I ever claimed I'm always right or that I necessarily represent God's position.
>Why would anyone ever want to operate within your framework?
Because God provides purpose, life, and salvation. Those are great reasons. For inductive claims, God is Truthful, so we can trust our senses under *my* framework, as opposed to your which provides no reason to.
>>71620922
>>71620934
I want to.
>>71620938
What? No I don't. Your English must be really bad if you're drawing that conclusion.
>>71620957
You can do that, but I wouldn't make that bet.
>>71620979
Nah, you don't get it. You see, there is something wrong when you supposedly use circular reasoning even though he pointed out no examples of such, but when he justifies his belief in God with:
>I believe in God
>therefore there must be plenty of reasons to believe in God
>because there's plenty of reasons to believe in God I believe in God
>therefore there must be plenty of reasons to believe in God
It's based on the assumption that he's not a delusional retard.
>>71621091
Pfff and the cat is out of the bag. The reason for your close mindedness is just wishful thinking
Legit question: how do these arguments come up?
I'm an atheist but I don't think anyone even knows that, because why the hell would anyone talk about their faith under any circumstances? Isn't it like a personal thing?
I mean, how does anyone escalate to a situation where they end up arguing about "GOD MADE EARTH / SKY DADDY LMAO"
>>71621180
I never use that reasoning. I have an image just for that though.
>>71621078
Ok, so you basically have a theory about world you cling to without any evidence and believe it is really because it makes you comfy?
Yeah, that's basically what I've expected.
And it is also not an argument, evidence or reasonable... but yeah, if it makes you comfy, then by all reason, stay sheep, don't search for the actual truth. And certainly never leave your comfort zone...
pic related, my face when I see your kind =/
>>71621206
That's funny, because it's the same reason you believe your senses correspond to real objects - because you want to.
>>71621078
But you have yet to prove your axiom is fucking valid, which is why it makes no sense to accept is, as you use your senses to accept your axiom. You cannot use that to retroactively justify picking those particular axioms, since it could just be your senses that trick you into believing in a God, despite a God not actually existing and you just being a walking bag of meat in a universe with no spiritual purpose. All your assumptions of God being truthful and right can just as well be made up by your senses.
Checkmate, atheists.
>>71621263
The exact same as you - you belief your senses correspond to real objects without any other reason for believing so. You just want to.
>>71621314
Why are you talking about validity in regard to axioms? Do you even know what an axiom *is*?

>>71621363
It's a skeptical inquiry - it's a question posed to produce *doubt* about a different premise or conclusion, not as a positive endorsement that anyone *SHOULD* believe that.
>>71621350
Yes. Do you? Your base assumption that God is somehow real could be entirely based on assumptions. Now answer the question and don't run away.
Is it not possible that all your assumptions of God being truthful and right can just as well be made up by your senses in an attempt to cope iwth a God-less reality because your feeble mind cannot handle not having a divine purpose?
>>71621365
Wait. WAIT. Do you believe people can believe something *for no reason*? Do you HONESTLY believe that?
>>71621290
Not in the slightest. I believe in my senses (to a degree, there are many known illusions) because they work. They are trained and sharpened every single time I do anything.
>>71621323
Well, even if I wanted to NOT believe my senses, I can never walk through wall. It is not that I chose to, it it because the wall is there.

Kek. Saved.
>>71621222
It is for me. I don't tend to talk about it unless they do. I never bring up my belief just "out of the Blue", or whatever. I have to be asked for my opinion or whatever.
Strangely, I've ended up debating it a fair bit because of them.
Before, atheists used to be well-read and versed because they grew up with religion and consciously chose to reject it.
Now, though they're more likely to be rebellious and not even that well-versed on religion. Instead, they'll often google and go to the most retarded of groups like YECers.
When the response is "sky wizard lmao" and stuff, you know they're not well-read on it and often resort to memes. That's why the fedora meme probably became a thing: they're posting stupid shit that's inaccurate, so stupid hat tipping is a thing.
>>71621461
Go home kid, you already showed us all that you have.
Try read some books on astrophysics and then try to compare it with a thought that the being that created it all is deeply concerned that you don't work on sabbat.

You don't know they work actually. You just believe they do, since they could be fed to you all while entirely different things happen.

>>71621487
>I can never walk through a wall
Until you've tried walking through walls in every possible configuration of matter and energy in the universe, that's a pretty stupid conclusion to make.
>>71621551
Please don't throw tantrums. It will make you look even worst.
1+1 is axiom.
God is not.
>>71621521
That's not evidence - it necessarily follows that if *ANYONE* believes *ANYTHING* there is a reason for that belief. It's a brute deductive connection - there's no evidence involved. Oh God Abdul, you're so fucking DUMB!
>>71621551
Whats next? Are you going to cry?

I could also just as easily not ;)
>>71621562
>It is everyone's problem coz everyone is going to talking past each other.
But it isn't. It goes more like this:
"Haaa God's not real"
"See, this that and the other"
"omg kike on a stick skyfairy loool"
"But we're not..."
"joseph was a cuck lol religitards :D"
>Plus that says nothing about religion, unless you are saying smart people are religious then that is some appeal to authority
You misunderstand. Basically, I mean it shows how people understand religions to be. People are more likely to look at a text and say 'okay cool', rather than looking in detail, understanding context, etc.
So you have people on all sides not looking at things in more detail. I blame Protestants.

That's all I can say really. You thought yourself in this endless circular brainfart and there is no way out for you. I wonder what it feels like if you really think that all you experience is an illusion. Do you think I am real? Or is this all inside your head. I really do feel a little sorry for you.
>>71621605
*REALLY*? "God exists, is responsible for x, and has qualities y" is 'wrong'? *REALLY* Abdul? Cuz I'm pretty sure that's an unfalsifiable premise.
>>71621656
Well, you simply can't. As with your god and trying to defend it with reason and logic - you cant, there is no reason, no logic, no evidence. Just "muh feels". And thats exactly why there is no god. You just desperately want it to be so you try every trick there is in the book to make some reason out of it, but when faced with opposition it always reduces to "I believe because I want". And that it turns makes you a plebian sheep.
Now please discard your stupid tripfaggotry and reconsider your "faith".

Evidence?
Do you have any, cuck?
>>71622431
It's not, since they could have wings, and someone feeds you an illusion that they don't.

Determine for me if the following premises are evidence for the claim that comes after it.
p1) There is a perfectly clam shaped indention in the sand
p2) A clam whose shell perfectly matches that indention sits very close to that indention
p3) You believe you saw the clam in that indention, and that you moved the clam from that indention to where it now sits
------
c) The clam shaped indention is evidence of a clam having been there
>>71622587
yup, even if i see a baby being born someone probably just hypnotises me and erases all the memories about the wings
>>71622516
Come on buddy, what about some evidence for a change? Your words are empty ever since you came out with "god is a truth and an axiom because it makes me feel good"
>>71622660
That's entirely possible. Which is why it's not a falsifiable premise.
>>71622601
If there is a god I'm sure there's a special place in hell for people who post on 4chan, I mean if you were god would you want these faggots in heaven with you?
>>71622709
>That's entirely possible
it isnt though, i mean do you really not realise how much hoops do you have to jump through just to believe something you have no reason to believe in?
>>71622649
Yep, that sounds like a solid evidence.
Now do you have something showing us that got is actually truth?
>>71622678
The problem of induction demonstrates all inductive reasoning - which is entirely what evidence is utilized in making claims in - is logically unjustifiable in use under materialist/physicalist/empiricist/naturalist axioms. You're so fucked, but you're too dumb to even understand how you're fucked. It's so fucking hilarious to me how dumb you people really are.
>>71622812
So you think it's impossible to hypnotize someone? Or for them to see or not see things that are either not there or are there?
>>71622816
It's actually not evidence, since the indention was actually caused by a man inducing the whole scene in a dream of yours. Good try though!
>>71622828
yeah yeah, so reality isn't realy, but somehow, god is.
Ok, you totally proved it this time, I think that now christianity will spread among the people of the earth as a will fire as every one will clearly see that Yahwe and Yahwe only is the truth and the way... or... what, wait a moment, thats bullshit! =D
>>71622862
first of all, yes hypnosis is bullshit, at most its the power of suggestion, and secondly, im pretty sure its immposible for babies to have wings and or that after every birth the parents memory is erased and all the video footage and photoes are altered
>>71623001
You didn't even look at the article. And you never will. Or if you even do, you're too stupid to understand it. You are quite literally a nigger as far as intellectual capability. It's so. Fucking.

>>71623041
But we're in the Matrix right now how do you know in the real world babies don't have wings?
>>71622352
It is strawman senpai. Deal with it
>If people actually asked, thoguh...
How about you say it before pushing for it. Not mentioning about it and then bitching about it later is fucking petty.
It is not strawman coz I didn't make a statement against it. Though I did roll my eyes when I typed. Also if you are a) claiming people should look at religion like you do b)upset it isn't the case, then my greentext is not wrong, it just hurt your feelings
>>71622932
Ahh, so there can be no evidence what so ever of anything because everything can be only a dream?
Superb. How can you then know that anything is truth, much more something a preposterous as God and especially yours god and yours only?
You can't.
No evidence = no truth.
Therefore god can never be truth.
QED.
Thank you all.

There's nothing impossible about that. What if you were in the Matrix? It's very obviously not impossible if that's the case. And there's nothing impossible about the possibility of you being in the Matrix.
>>71623201
lol don't be so harsh on the boy =D
>>71623201
I'm saying in any case it could be a dream, and if it is then there's no such thing as evidence that you're able to access.
Truth exists independent of reasons for believing or not believing it. And that's all evidence is - material reasons to believe an inductive claim.

>>71623208
im not talking about the matrix, im taling about the same world ew are both percieving now
>>71623327
Which could be the Matrix. Unless you can prove we're not in the Matrix.
>>71623208
God is only in your dreams.
>>71623174
>It is strawman senpai. Deal with it
It isn't. Just accept that.
>How about you say it before pushing for it.
No - My views should not matter when discussing facts.
>>71623174
>Also if you are a) claiming people should look at religion like you do b)upset it isn't the case, then my greentext is not wrong, it just hurt your feelings
But your greentext is wrong and didn't hurt my feelings.
Next?
>>71623327
How do you know we are both perceiving the same world?
>>71623357
God is an illusion of the matrix, Neo. They just want to trick you for your loosh.
>>71623370
You'd best hope He's only in yours. That hope won't do you much good come Reckoning though.
>>71623357
and what if the matrix is also in a matrix of even higher beings than the ones controling our matrix? what is there are even more matrix layers?
what if all these assumptions are completely pointles waste of time unless you have proof that youre actually in the matrix?
>>71623393
ok how is your world different than mine? you can try to prove it, and then if you actaully have decent proof we can agree on the same universe
>>71623451
Reckoning is just an illusion. You must see through the Matrix neo.
>>71623461
You can't prove you're not in the Matrix - but just because you can't prove it doesn't mean it's pointless at all. Whether we're actually in the Matrix or not matters a *GREAT DEAL* - it would completely change how most of us conduct ourselves to believe every moment of our lives is an illusion.
>>71623520
Impossible to tell it could literally be anything you have analyze every particle in the universe to make sure.
>>71623451
No, you only dream that he is in your dreams. In fact, it is all just a simulation and they are forcing you to believe in a false god. You must see through the illusion. Reality is simulated. there is no god...
You have lost your marbles man =D
>>71623604
What if the idea of god is just an illusion though?
>>71623604
you cant prove im not superman, i bet the world would be different if i was superman
your point being?
>>71623632
At least I had marbles to lose, nigger.
>>71623604
I can prove it, in your dream =D
>>71623672
My point being you saying the question is pointless is wrong - there is a value and a point to it.
>>71623520
It could be anything as small as me seeing colors slightly different to you to the fact that in my world Lord Hitler IV is the supreme leader.
>>71623690
Im nigger, but only in matrix, in real world Im the god, so you should watch your language, boy.
>>71623625
>Impossible to tell it
not really, it basically boils down to 'do you believe in anything supernatural' and "do you believe current science"
prove something supernatural or debunk something scientific and were done here
>>71623665
What if He is? If He is then He is. Why would I ever make that bet, Finny?
>>71623697
You can't, since there's an infinite regress. But you don't even know what that means.
>>71623761
But what about alternate universes and dimensions? For all you know we could be in different ones and not even know it.
>>71623690
It is pointless? Really? Isn't it just another level of matrix control? We must go deeper.
How can be anything pointless if reallity is just a matrix? =D damn, you are putting a crown on the word stupid =D
Yeah, I have finally igured it out, you are just a reloplayer! I Trinity your waifu?
>>71623869
Your English is top notch. Did your mother Esmerelda help teach you while your father was out fucking goats?
>>71623762
Sure, I bet you can't walk through the wall, no matter how much you may think it is just an illusion.
I bet all my worldly possession.
>>71623722
whats the point then? you cant prove it and you cant disprove it. just because something would happen if you somehow would be able to prove it doesnt mean you can actually prove it. the only value it has is being a mental exercise
>>71623949
Well, at least Im not living a lie.
>>71623973
My point is that if you care about intellectual honesty and the dictates of logic, you have to maintain doubt.
>>71623999
Nothing is more truthful than my faith - have fun being destitute though ^_^
>>71623949
What an argument. Did they downloaded all the logic directly into your head?
=D Tell me some more stories about the matrix, I want to know the truth Morfeus.
>>71623865
theres no proof of them so theres no point in believing in them or doing anyting based on that belief, whether they actually exist or not is irrelevant
>>71624024
ok i doubt im in the real world, what now?
