"There are no atheists in foxholes"

"There are no atheists in foxholes" is an aphorism used to suggest that times of extreme stress or fear can prompt belief in a higher power.[1] In the context of actual warfare, such a sudden change in belief has been called a foxhole conversion. The logic of the argument is also used to argue for the opposite.

Just purely for entertainment purposes??

You got it, buddy😉
But i understand that this kind of debate isn't fun for everyone and i don't expect anyone not up for the debate to engage me in it.

I guess that's how he enjoys SW.
We all get different things out of it, i suppose😉

Bullocks. You’re distorting it. An Atheist say they don’t believe in god or gods, that’s not a claim on the existence of either. Nothing to prove. Actually saying there is no god is a claim. But of course, you can’t disprove something that’s never been proven in the first place.
