I Am An Atheist

I was brought up a christian and indoctrinated with christianity at school but I can't say I ever believed any of that rubbish. None of it makes any sense. I don't care if people want to believe that stuff, the only problem I have is with those pushy aggressive nutters who try to force their beliefs onto me.

Why are you an atheist, and not an agnostic?
rob19 · M
@ABCDEF7 Because I'm as sure as I can be that "god" doesn't exist. The reason I'm so sure is that even those who believe it does and claim to have heaps of evidence to support that belief are unable or unwilling to present it. All they seem to offer are silly insults.

@rob19 Neither you have an evidence that there is no God. Can you provide a scientifically verifiable evidence that there is no God?
rob19 · M
@ABCDEF7 Do you believe in all the other gods and mythical figures or can you provide scientifically verifiable evidence that they don't exist. How about "Russell's Teapot" for example?

Alternatively, can you provide scientifically verifiable evidence that the specific christian god does exist?

The fact that christians repeatedly lie about having evidence of their god gives very strong cause to doubt its existence.

@rob19 I do not believe anything. Not even that God don't exist, because I don't know. But I am sure that I don't know.

Atheism is not just related to one religion.

True. Most people are Atheists in respect of all gods other than their own. Some of us just go one god further by treating them all equally.

@rob19 Why I became a Christian was because only the God described in the Bible was capable of creating the universe and all we see it it. All the other gods were not great enough or were lacking the attributes required to create. Kind of like atheism that way. Completely incapable of explaining the origins of all we see and think we see. Only Yahweh as described in the Bible and Christian teachings is capable of creating what we see. Sadly atheists aren't intellectually capable of understanding that so they make up silly stories and wild hypothesis to explain what they can not explain. A finely tuned universe required to support life on earth is statistically impossible of the brain dead atheist simply says there are billions upon billions of universes and we are just the lucky ones. Too Funny!!! Multiply the impossible by infinity leaves you with impossible infinity. It is still impossible and now you have introduced the impossible to confirm because there is no evidence of other universes.

So where did this yahweh thing come from? From what you say, it can't exist.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@rob19 Since you are so good with Google try looking up ETERNAL. It is one of the attributes or Yahweh.
rob19 · M
@hippyjoe1955 I know exactly what it means. Now you try explaining why it can't apply to the universe as a whole.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@rob19 So you have never heard of the red shift?
rob19 · M
@hippyjoe1955 Of course I have but isn't that "only a theory"? 🤣
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@rob19 So you have no idea what the red shift means in any real sense?
rob19 · M
@hippyjoe1955 I know exactly what red shift is and what causes it. I also know what blus shift is. You need to decide whether you accept scientific theories or not.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@rob19 So you have no idea what the significance is of the red shift (observed phenomena) and the age of the universe.
rob19 · M
@hippyjoe1955 Quite obviously you don't. The red shift can only apply from the beginning of spacetime. Read up a bit on it, I've better things to do than try to educate you.
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@rob19 So either you have no idea what eternal is or you don't understand what you just posted about the beginning of space time.

LOL! You're just emphasizing your own ignorance now, Talk about TOO FUNNY!!! 🤣🤣🤣🤣
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@rob19 I bet you spent all night trying to come up with a comeback and all you did is make yourself look even more foolish. You should try harder next time. You must be trying to look like a complete goof.

@rob19 If you want to have a logical & experiential approach towards the things, try it once.

LOL! You're not only trying, you're succeeding. That's not surprising as you've had a lot more practice than most.

my friend Janine tore you to pieces regarding that nonsense, and what’s your reaction? You freak out, run away, block her, and then slither back trying to sell it to others as if nothing happened.

sorry, but you’re kinda creepy
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@sputnik No she didn't. She never countered a single point. There is no reason for anything without a Reason.
sputnik · 70-79, M
@hippyjoe1955 Is that why you blocked her, is it?

wimp

I’ll chat with her this evening... she’ll be amused
rob19 · M
@sputnik He thinks denying it will make it go away. He doesn't understand that everyone can see the evidence for themselves. Now that really is "TOO FUNNY!!!!" 🤣😛🤣
hippyjoe1955 · 61-69, M
@sputnik Actually she referred to me and my family as Nazis or Nazi sympathizers. My father in law and uncles fought the Nazis in WWII with great distinction. They were all highly decorated for bravery as they went in on D Day first wave or fought in Italy. They fought through Italy France and Belgium and Holland and into Germany liberating several slave farms and one extermination camp. When an idiot like her starts making stupid comments about Nazis after I spent hours listening to my families war stories about what the Nazis did to humanity..... She became blocked and will remain so. Ignorance like hers does not deserve my attention.
