Daily dose of wisdom- atheism

@Emosaur You need to learn how to think, Emo. This is what God created us for.

@Emosaur The onus is on you to prove that my contention is wrong.

If you are a bird that can't fly and I come along to tell you to learn how to fly because God created us to fly, asking me to prove that I am speaking the truth shows that you are resistant to being better than what you are.

@sree251 Good logic is not denying a theory without coming up with another theory. How did the first cell happen if a higher intelligence didn't create it? If they can't tell us something that makes sense then the best we have is the Bible, God's word. Whenever we want to do investigative work in a crime foreinstance, saying "he didn't do it" is not good enough. Then who did it?

@Carazaa Atheism is not another theory. It is - as the fat guy said - just a rejection of theism. Atheists are followers of another religion: science. Even though scientists are groping in the dark like blind men trying to figure out the elephant, their guesses about the nature of the beast are accepted by atheists as better alternatives to the elephant. It doesn't matter if the beast is ridiculously bizarre, atheists just hate the elephant.

Your crime analogy works if the suspect in the criminal investigation is the only one capable of committing the crime. Let's consider God is the name of a girl locked in a kitchen with all the equipment and ingredients for making a cake. An hour later, the kitchen is unlocked and in it is the girl with a cake. No sane atheist would deny that God didn't make it. However, atheists are not sane. They insist that the ingredients came together, went into the oven, and came out as a cake.

@sree251 bullshit. You're the one making the contention, it's up to you to prove it.

@HarryHawk I take no sides in the debate. I am just clarifying a point. Am I muddying the water for you?

@sree251 you said this, didn't you?

@HarryHawk Your quote is correct but what's the context? You can't pop up one day after and demand a response.

@sree251 oh FFS! Ok, I will try and keep this simple. It's not up to everyone else to prove your contention wrong, it's up to you to prove it right.

@HarryHawk Why should I prove that my contention is right to you? Are you buying it? What is in it for me to give you the proof to anything?

@sree251 if you expect people to believe you, the burden of proof is on you. If you don't care if anyone believes you then why express an opinion in the first place?

@HarryHawk I don't expect anything; least of all, anyone to believe me. What do you think I come here for? I express my opinion because I like to reflect on what I read on the forum. You can say that I like talking to myself. And I don't expect anyone to join me in the conversation.
