From what I understand you believe this

Lintar wrote:
God isn't just responsible for the 'Big Bang' of creation, but for every single moment of that creation, everywhere. God 'sustains in existence' reality, as they might say; it forms the ultimate foundation for it. Absent the existence of God, there would really be nothing at all.


So as far as I am concerned you do believe in a "Magical Man" You can argue that God is not a man, but heck that is splitting hairs. You believe in a Being that controls every single interaction of this universe. Extrapolating from "for every single moment of that creation" then seeing as life is still evolving on earth and stars and galaxies are continuing to change, then it is reasonable to assume that you also believe that God is responsible for the weather, and the patterns of weather that allow us to predict what god is going to do over the next 7 days.

The problem with your 'Philosophy and logic over the scientific method and the predictions from science" being that you start with a potentially flawed premise.

As I understand your argument you are using the above statement to deny the predictions of front-line science that point to things such as multiple universes. From your stand point the prediction of such things is falsified by the axiom "God the creator exists and this god is the creator and curator of all there is"

Which is a nonsense.

Unlike you, most atheists are quite prepared to say "I do not know how this universe came into being, but rather than say God did it I will continue looking for an answer, which may (although I highly doubt it) lead to god" You on the other hand make the completely unreasonable assumption that you know how the universe came into being and you know where all the laws of nature came from.

You continuously berate atheists for being philosophically unsound, I contend that it is you, not I, who has a very shaky philosophical base.

Maybe you don't want God in your life.


Dodging the question, plus your implying he is just disbelieving in presence of evidence - which he is not, he is disbelieving in absence of evidence.


Sometimes, we see what we want to see.


Full agreement here; however, perhaps this applies to yourself as well?

It does not apply to me.

I have proven the existence of God right here on this thread.

Remember, this thread is about Gods existence, we are not discussing His nature, his location, why created us etc.

Don't forget goalpost-moving. Proof has been provided, so the next argument is "that's not proof," and some unreasonable standard for proof that only supports the opposing view will be demanded.

Nope. You've proven that you believe in uncausable causes.

There is no absolutely no empirical evidence that a god exists. Therefore there must be no god.

There is absolutely much real belief that a god exists. Therefore there must be a god.

If both these ideas are simultaneously accepted then everything begins to make sense.

I assume you mean "against facts".

What I can do is dismiss a claim of "facts" that are unsupported by evidence.

You have defined "God" as a "who", absent evidence. You have claimed this "who" is the "first cause" due to the unproven "fact" that an infinite chain of causes is impossible, and that everything requires a cause. Why is your "who" exempt from this rule? Where is your supporting evidence?

What you have is a weak hypothesis, not a "fact".

Otaku, this response of yours is truly idiotic. To equate God with Father Christmas just goes to show that you accept the inane ramblings of the current saints of 'New Atheism' (i.e. Harris, Dawkins, Dennett and their ilk), and haven't even made the effort to truly understand what it is you think you are rejecting.

Is this the sad, low level that disbelief has sunk to?
It is not sad it is a fact, belief is something children do so it is time to put away childish things! The stories about god and or gods can be found in the mythology section at your local library!


Putting away childish things. Isn't that what Jesus says in the Bible? Yes, I do believe he does!
The bible is childish obsolete and outdated it is nothing more than a book of mythology and fairytales as a means to guide a persons life, it is outdated and humanity no longer needs such obsolete primitive beliefs in order to get ahead in life! In short we don't need to believe in a god anymore we are more advanced and evolved to do so!


So people who don't believe in the reality of God are 'more evolved', are they?

8O :roll: :lmao:

You wish!
No need most religious people reject evolution so fail to evolve themselves!


Most religious people DON'T reject evolution, they accept it.

Don't take this personally, but you would have to be the most misinformed person I have ever come across here at Wrong Planet. You just do not have a clue.

I've proven it. If you didn't see the proof then that is your problem not mine.
