Why the biblical atheist deny God exists.

Hi atheists, tell me why you deny God exists, of course you have to first define what is God.

I am Yrger the theist, and here is my definition of God:
"God is the permanent self-existent spirit creator and operator of man and the universe and everything transient."

@ElwoodBlues How that's telling someone. A bit unkind you think?

ElwoodBlues · M

@val70 OP never responds to any of the answers I've given nor to the questions I include. On one of his earlier posts I carefully pointed out the difference between atheists and agnostics, but he still pretends there's no difference. Am I unkind? Is honesty unkind??

@ElwoodBlues I don't need to answer those questions for you

@ElwoodBlues He's playing you. Who introduces themselves as someone the theist or starts a post with hi atheists?

BibleData · M

@ElwoodBlues So, it's your contention that a god must exist to be a god? That's silly.

ElwoodBlues · M

@BibleData So you're saying the God you believe in is nonexistent? Good to know!

@ElwoodBlues Come on dude, you know the difference between all those gods and Jesus. The difference between all those made-up phony baloney gods and Jesus is that he wrote a book to us, came to visit us, and proved himself...

@ElwoodBlues No, I'm not saying that. I'm saying that a god doesn't have to exist to be a god. Amaterasu, for example, in your list, is a god that was created to be a god for instruction and nationalism. No one thought Amaterasu literally existed. She didn't have to. That isn't the point.

Atheists don't understand what the word god means because most occidental theists don't fully understand it either, at least cerebrally. They still use it paradoxically.

So you are agnostic and not an atheist? @ElwoodBlues

ElwoodBlues · M

@Carazaa Yes, I'm agnostic.

Carazaa · F

@ElwoodBlues OK great! You realize that maybe an intelligent designer made the world. Bright!

ElwoodBlues · M

@Carazaa Yes, I've never excluded that possibility.

Carazaa · F

@ElwoodBlues I think you are quite intelligent and have good logic!
