Thank you. If I find some of your brilliance, I'll return the favor.

It's kind of endearing, I guess, that you are reversing my words to write your own posts.
November 19, 2017 at 20:03
Of course, after pages of completely unsuccessfully presenting atheism as being a reasonable conclusion, deletion of one's own public failure is the n...
November 19, 2017 at 19:37
If you would have paid attention, you would have noticed that in your case order goes 2 then 1. So I'll start with 2. 2 is basically meaningless, sinc...
November 19, 2017 at 02:49
All arguments in favor of the non-existence of God that have been provided on this thread are unreasonable and have been shown why. I am not going to ...
November 19, 2017 at 02:07
You just don't have good understanding of God's word, that's all. Your conclusions about God's character are flawed. But, again and again, this thread...
November 19, 2017 at 00:46
I asked you about one quote, you come back explaining the other. There is no reductio ad absurdum from my argument in what you quoted, in part because...
November 19, 2017 at 00:41
As far as I have seen what you've written here, you seem more like a person who believes that God exists but doesn't like Him, than that you don't bel...

What exactly about Banno's quote is reversal of which of my arguments about atheists? Can you be precise?
November 19, 2017 at 00:07
If you want examples, go through this thread and you'll see unreasonable arguments for the non-existence of God given, including your own, and my resp...
November 18, 2017 at 23:57
You want to be able to freely deny God however you like, and publicly so, but when time comes for some accountability, for some examination of your th...
November 18, 2017 at 23:47
I did, by replying to various posts on this thread.
November 18, 2017 at 23:12
Are you saying that majority of atheists are equally unsure of both God creating the world and the world coming to existence by some form of chance or...
November 18, 2017 at 21:58
No, what you wrote is not what my argument essentially is, but... what can I say at page five. Maybe I'll get back to your post later, not right now. ...
November 18, 2017 at 21:20
That's true, I didn't give examples in OP. The problem is that all the arguments I have read or heard are flawed. I would have to list them all and th...
November 18, 2017 at 20:55
Nobody has to believe me. This thread is about how atheists come to their conclusion through unreasonable thought process. Nothing to do with people b...

If satan spoke to you supernaturally, then you have been told a lie.
November 18, 2017 at 20:35
There's a much more serious and sorrowful explanation than what you wrote. But I am not going to write it here. One doesn't need to know it, in order ...
November 18, 2017 at 20:22
By the way, as I remember, Hitchens used to proclaim how burden of proof is on those who say that God exists. That's really rich. There is a mathemati...
November 18, 2017 at 20:18
Here's from wikipedia: "Hitchens's razor is an epistemological razor asserting that the burden of proof regarding the truthfulness of a claim lies wit...
November 18, 2017 at 20:10
No. Why?
November 18, 2017 at 19:53
Oh, I have seen it. It is embarrassing you are using it as a tool to evaluate your logic.
November 18, 2017 at 19:49
Is this one more logic like "Hitchens' razor"? Failure of proof of nonexistence just means that one can't prove that something doesn't exist. No need ...
November 18, 2017 at 19:14
So, at this point in time, you have no way of knowing if God exists or not. That makes it reasonable conclusion for you to be a neutral agnostic. If y...
November 18, 2017 at 18:49
Prove that a human has to understand everything about reality. Like, that there is an actual natural law that says that humans have to understand ever...
November 18, 2017 at 16:53
What about this "Hitchens' razor", by the way? It's embarrassing how some are using this to evaluate their thoughts: "That which can be asserted witho...
November 18, 2017 at 16:43
There is no known natural law that says that if God exists His presence ought be so all-encompasing as to be utterly undeniable. It's just your opinio...
November 18, 2017 at 16:35
I would say you are either dishonest here or you are operating on some wobbly logic. I wrote that from what I've read and heard, atheists are: 1) quit...
November 17, 2017 at 18:51
Still not a single one reasonable argument for atheism. I am not arguing for theism here, by the way. I already wrote that agnosticism without atheism...
November 17, 2017 at 13:41
Nothing you wrote on this thread provided any reasonable argument for atheism. Maybe you can go back to the OP and provide an argument for atheism, no...
November 17, 2017 at 03:13
Oh my, let's not get into that debate on this thread.
November 17, 2017 at 01:12
You can't claim what you haven't experienced. Understanding that God exists comes supernaturally. Until you don't experience it, can't really know wha...
November 17, 2017 at 01:11
I have an understanding that the Bible is God's word. If you want shortest answer why Christianity and not any other religion, it's this - only Bible ...
November 17, 2017 at 00:54
All suffering is part of what God is ultimately doing with this creation. Not that God personally causes suffering but God allows suffering to exist. ...
November 17, 2017 at 00:47
It is offhand. Because, I guess you are reffering to the Bible and Bible is quite complex book. You can't just pick it up and read it however you like...
November 17, 2017 at 00:32
"Suffering objection", like "evil objection", is at best offhand objection against presumed character of God, not an argument against existence of God...
November 16, 2017 at 18:45
What you wrote is a knee jerk reaction. Much more emotional than result of an effort to understand how God can create a world with evil in it. Not to ...
November 16, 2017 at 18:40
Not every story a man can tell is true. But that's neither pro or con for God's existence.
November 15, 2017 at 23:25
An agnostic can say that he or she neither believes nor disbelieves that God exists. She just doesn't know what to think about it. If I would to class...
November 15, 2017 at 23:12
Yes, but I would say that any atheism, hard or soft, is probably not reasonable. One can be agnostic but not an atheist. It is a consequence of comple...
November 15, 2017 at 23:00
That is just a sample of offhand reasoning I'm talking about. There is really no deep thought, examination, inspection of our reality behind it. Not s...
November 15, 2017 at 22:52
If you are an agnostic, saying that you don't know whether God exists or not, that would be one thing. But if you want to conclude that you believe, o...
November 15, 2017 at 22:15
World is perfect in terms of its purpose, not in terms of some abstract perfection. In that sense I see it as perfect. In terms of general perfection,...
November 15, 2017 at 22:09
This argument can be expanded upon, based on what's available to a human in regards to understanding God. But OP is not about looking at God, but abou...

Result of a math equation is either true or not, it doesn't matter what reseach or work have I done prior to solving the equation. You might want to k...
November 15, 2017 at 21:26
Emotional outburst to the OP is in line with being "quite unreasonable in interpreting what nature provides as clues for or against God." Reversing th...

Morality, as the term is generally understood, comes from God. Any other view on morality is not really about morality, but about what people perceive...

I don't know what that's got to do with satanic Apple company. There's an answer to your question and it starts with understanding that God's creation...
November 14, 2017 at 14:31
Apple is satanic company and Jobs was probably devil worshiper, one way or the other. Apple logo is bitten apple, a symbol of man's rebellion against ...
