Attention all religious faggots, your religion is wrong, and your god doesn't exist.
Before we start this debate, lets get three things out of the way, so you can't conflate things together.
>Evolution isn't about the Big Bang
>Evolution isn't about Abiogenesis
>Evolution is the change in allele frequencies over time.
Now that you can't throw around retarded claims or questions, let's begin.
There's a fundamental problem with god, and this is the issue of infinite regression, meaning who created god, who created the thing that created god, who created the thing that created the thing that created god, and so on and so forth, there's no finite stopping point, kind of like infinity.
If god(s) exists, then God created the existence, which means it created the universe, which means one way or another, through what ever method, whether life spawned on Earth, or if an asteroid with microbial life or proteins fell to Earth and inseminated it doesn't matter, we eventually came to exist by that process started by God, which fundamentally means he created us.
If God then did create us, he created imperfect beings. Whether your argument for is that God put the tree of forbidden knowledge in the garden of Eden knowing we were imperfect, or God just did that as a test of faith is a load of horse shit.
If God did this, that means he knew we would do wrong in this world. God knew 30,000 humans would starve to death worldwide daily. God knew Middle Easterners would rape and kill women by stoning for fun. God knew that some North Koreans would never know the light of day, think everyone is either born a prisoner or guard, and die in a chemical weapons testing chamber.
If God couldn't foresee this, then God isn't omniscient.
If God isn't omniscient, then God's power is limited.
If God's power is limited, then obviously God exists in a realm where laws exist.
If God knew this, then God is cruel.
If God is cruel, then God is imperfect.
If God is imperfect, then why call them God?

With Christianity alone, there are over 5000 FUCKING DENOMATIONS!
>http://www.biblicalcatholic.com/DENOMS.php
What makes you think your particular religion is correct? You're shooting for fish on dry land, it's going to take a miracle to aim your potential in the right area.
Also, I'd like to take the time to state that most Christians don't even fucking know the 10 commandments, the most important guidelines for humans, dictated by the Judeo-christian God Yahweh to Moses, etched into stone tablets, and referred to as the 10 commandments.

1. For thou shalt worship no other god: for the LORD, whose name is Jealous, is a jealous God:

2. Thou shalt make thee no molten gods.

3. The feast of unleavened bread shalt thou keep.

4. All that openeth the matrix is mine; and every firstling among thy cattle, whether ox or sheep, that is male.

5. Six days thou shalt work, but on the seventh day thou shalt rest: in earing time and in harvest thou shalt rest.

6. And thou shalt observe the feast of weeks, of the firstfruits of wheat harvest, and the feast of ingathering at the year's end.

7. Thrice in the year shall all your menchildren appear before the LORD God, the God of Israel.

8. Thou shalt not offer the blood of my sacrifice with leaven; neither shall the feast of the Passover be left until the morning.

9. The first of the firstfruits of thy land thou shalt bring unto the house of the LORD thy God.

10. Thou shalt not seethe a kid in his mother's milk.

Religion isn't only a sham, but is harmful to society.
In the bible, no matter what version, there were two first beings brought about into this world, that ate fruit from the tree of forbidden knowledge.
Think about that for a second...Forbidden knowledge. The enemy of religion is knowledge. The enemy of religion is enlightened people who question the crumbling answers put forth for their consumption by their holy man. In the early 13th century, Christian monks took THE OLDEST BOOK OF FUCKING CALCULUS, AND USED IT FOR SCRATCH PAPER
>http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Archimedes_Palimpsest
Do you know how fucking far we would be right now if we had calculus several hundred years before Isaac Newton? Fuck, Christians have set us back literally centuries!
Those aren't the only books, but probably the most important. During the crusades and dark ages of Europe, hundreds of thousands of books were burned, knowledge lost to the fires.
All religions do this, and it's fucking sad. Religion is literally impeding society by centuries.

You're comparing a parent with a baby to a claim of a supernatural being, responsible for the laws of physics, and everything that governs life as we know it? Nigger, you're retarded. God gave us free will, and is thus responsible for creating fallible beings that would do wrong, and God fucking knew it! God should've created perfect beings in a perfect world.

Holy fucking shit, everything I said is relevant. Saying something is irrelevant doesn't make it so. God in the eyes of every religion that says God created this world, is infact fallible and imperfect, because God created us. We're cruel too.

It's pretty funny people dedicate their lives to one specific version of one specific religion when you can trace back how the fiction grew and even the individuals who wrote that version of their holy book to appease some king thousands of years ago. It's almost as sad as scientologists who have on record their founder saying a good way to make money would be to invent a religion.

You can't disprove a negative retard.
That's a logical fallacy.
Try harder, and take a basic debating class.
Prove to me there aren't 7 massless, energyless pixie dicks in your mouth in any given moment. You can't....

What I can do, is show your everything wrong with any religion I'm aware of, that makes a claim that can be tested.
For instance, any claim of Noah's Arc, or the precursors that were ripped off by the bible to make that story are all mathematically wrong. Even if you could pack that many animals into this world, which you obviously couldn't, the boat would rip in half under its own massive frame.

There's evidence for gravity, what the fuck are you talking about.

If you think our knowledge of gravity is so shit, then how the fuck do our engineers make models and actual working pieces that follow the laws of gravity so well? Dark matter does exist, we just haven't found out what it is.Holy shit you're fucking retarded and making outright lies.

Again, knowledge is the enemy of religion. You've proven my point, religion is for retards and the willfully ignorant.

I know you can't disprove a negative, that's why I used the example of pixie dicks.
That's also why I said "MIGHT AS WELL NOT EXIST"
>MIGHT
Fuck, use your head.

>Oh look everybody, he mentioned dark matter, that means you must be smart
My point of dark matter is it's something so incredibly difficult to understand, but it's at least fucking measurable in ONE FUCKING WAY, your God(s) immeasurable. Therefore it might as well not fucking exist.

If your God is real, why doesn't it show itself to the world right now, and end all this debate? You know why, because it's either a cruel, imperfect being that wants more arguments, and in which case why call them God, or it doesn't exist.

>“Slaves, submit yourselves to your masters with all respect, not only to the good and gentle but also to the cruel.” (1 Peter 2:18)
You must take the scripture written in the context of the times the men that wrote them lived in

Slavery existed in the Roman empire
It is very foolish and very silly to not expect philosophers of the time not to write on slavery

And this isn't it explicitly a proslavery passage
It's simply telling slaves and servants how they should act in their masters homes
Because,
slavery existed in this time

When in fact, empirical evidence doesn't exist for half of the science based theories. In fact, modern day science is mostly faith based, but you are too stupid to realize that.

No, you are a fucking mongrel. If you haven't read Aristotle, then it is painfully obvious that you are too ignorant or to young to be able to understand that knowledge comes from other avenues besides empirical.

Do you know what a priori knowledge is? No? Good, then shut the fuck up because you have no authority on the subject you preach, and therefore no one will take your ignorant 18 year old self seriously.

Scientific based theories all have evidence, or they wouldn't be theories. Theory is different in the scientific community from the colloquial term you throw around so casually. A theory is a refined hypothesis that has been tested time and time again, without even ONE failure.
>No, you are a fucking mongrel. If you haven't read Aristotle, then it is painfully obvious that you are too ignorant or to young to be able to understand that knowledge comes from other avenues besides empirical.

[spoiler]>>35742452

Theologian here. OP clearly hasn't read Ecclesiastes. The fundamental positions that most of the major religions have developed from are those of nihilism and agnosticism. We don't know why we are here, we don't know who or what caused us to be here, or where we are going. So we (humans) created concepts (words) upon which we appropriated meaning to give us a sense of place and purpose. God is analogous to Allah, YHWH, Odin, etc. Over time these words not only adopt different, conflated meanings (depends who you ask). Then humans found different ways to relate to these concepts, many of which we personify so as to relate to them better (because humanity is quite simple). It is the way in which which we mediate and relate to these differing concepts as tribes,societies, and civilisations that distinguishes us from one another and tends to cause conflict. It is people's belief in those concepts and their devotion to them that makes them real. Real in the sense that their behaviour, speech, and actions are set (largely) in line with the rules by which they understand and mediate their relationship with that word. Simply arguing from the position that 'God' - a word/concept - as a literal/real being, in of itself, is quite retarded and is just a way of, essentially, begging the question. Belief makes things real (indirectly). These 'meta' concepts are not real in of themselves. I.e. 'Love' and 'gravity' are not real. Certainly unseen phenomena exist that we can observe through their effects, which in turn we, in the past, have appropriated the aforementioned terms. The same thing goes for human nature, natural law, and the motions of both the earth and the cosmos, and in the past we have usually conflated these things under one concept, in the West for the last 2000 years it has been 'God'. Ideas cannot die and are not real in of themselves, they are inert - but it is the meaning and treatment of these words by people that gives them life.

You seem to think that allowing individuals to reap what they sow is cruel. However, negating free will by getting rid of consequences is equally so.

Also, what is death to a God? If your soul is immortal, since we're working within the framework of a diety, then your life is nothing more than a phase, and your suffering and death is inconsequential in the long-run.

No I didn't imply it, you did when you created your strawman argument using that as your basis. I simply stated there is a difference between empirical knowledge and rational knowledge, as what Aristotle has postulated.

Any negative attributes (e.g. not being benevolent, not being omniscient, not omnipotent etc) are not possible if the being only has positive attributes.

Using 'human context' is using weaselly words to try and wriggle out of any criticism. The ontological argument requires the god being 'proven' to be perfect, based on human understanding.

If you reject the idea that humans can understand god in 'the human context' then you have to reject Godal and all ontological arguments anyway, the same way Catholics do.

The problem is I know you won't understand what I am saying because you never understood what you were posting in the first place.

I can't even tell if bait or not, but here we go.

Not every religion believes in a central God, Hindus believe God is everything and everyone and all the forces of nature. God is also not just God but Brahma, or absolute truth, and exists eternally both inside and outside the universe. The universe is a temporary thing and eventually dies like everything else but is also eventually reborn.

There is nothing separate from God/Brahma. Essentially it is like Taoism, it is about balance. God is both good and evil. Hell, Kali is often described as the great goddess and great demoness. I mean face it, if there was no evil, what would justify the existence of good? And even then it isn't just about that, it is about finding enlightenment and escaping the reincarnation cycle(Which has not yet been disproven and so far the only argument I seen that would suggest it is the idea of a soul, but even then, a Buddhist could accept conciousness, the persons mind reincarnating).

Go be edgy somewhere else. You can easily challenge the goodness of Yahweh in the Abrahamic faiths, but you'll find a harder time challenging the Indian/Eastern religions.

The difference between science and religion, is that we concede to the fact that we don't know what happened "before" the big bang, but that's kind of misleading, since the big bang was an expansion of space time from a point, which means there was no space time before the big bang, meaning nothing could've been "before."
Holy fuck, this shit is too easy. Even with a basic elementary school understanding of the scientific method, evolution, abiogenesis, and the big bang, and the fact that we concede we don't know everything, and instead reject shitty explanations involving an unfalsifiable all powerful God.

>Not even knowing what Buddhism is.

You also know there are atheist Buddhists, Hindus, and even likely Jains right? I was also explaining the Hindu view point of god.

Having no central God does not mean the same as "Having multiple Gods(Especially in Hinduism which is both Monotheistic and Polythistic or none depending on what school of Hinduism you read)," it just means that they may or may not focus on any Gods at all. Hence Buddhism, which main idea is that you do not need God or a god at all to achieve enlightenment.

Hello dumbass.

Have you ever read a bible?
Man is in a fallen state? Who roams like a lion looking to steal, kill and destroy? - Not God.
Do you have free will or are you a calvinist robot deemed for destruction? - No, you have free will.

Choose Life or Choose Death. It's simple really, choose death and you lead a life of self destruction no matter how you feel about it.
Choose life, you enjoy and believe in a spiritual supernatural world where you actually experience things beyond your wildest dreams.
Choose to deny this an you will recieve nothing. Believe first, and then recieve. It doesn't work the other way around.
Remember that we are not citizens of this fallen world. Remember that Jesus was the underdog himself. God knows all the awful things you profess but God also tells you why this happens. You haven't bothered to seek truth, instead you have blamed God for your lack of knowledge. We live in a courtroom and I fear you have a God shaped hole in your life. Repent, Seek Jesus Christ with all of your heart. I give you two weeks to try this. Post again and see what happens. You are loved. All your pain, suffering and questions will be answered. Just grow up first and take this post seriously for once in your entire manchild life.

Infinite regression. You see that is the problem with the ant looking up at the human trying to understand why. I'll give you this answer but you won't like it.
Time. God created time and it may not even be as one dimensional as we perceive. You see it is time that our nature is bound to and so we understand from that nature, but that is not the nature of God. Outside of time there needs be no regression. Time is even argued by science as having a beginning. God created time.

But none of that really matters to you. I could stand here all day and answer every one of your problems and you would not acknowledge them. You would just continue to add new questions until you felt you had won because you need to win.

The reason why you argue is because you want to convince yourself there is no God. You need to attack and prove to yourself that he is not there so you can find peace, but there is no peace in living lies is there?

Why are so many on the attack against a belief in God? If they have already been enlightened shouldn't they be happy and show us by example how right they are? No, they come back and constantly harass people simply because something is eating at them deep inside and they don't want to accept what it is.
They act like the very Christians they hate.

My point is your attacking religious people in general, but most of your arguments apply to religions of the Abrahamic variety. Not all religions have a god or a god focus. Buddha acknowledged no God nor creation story or anything of the sort and a number of what Buddhism is in multiple parts of Asia is what was absorbed into local cults, but regardless of this, buddhists usually focus and acknowledge the Buddha as the supreme teacher and maybe a 'divine person" at best.

My point? Your hating on religion as a whole for the problems of the Abrahamic faiths and he problems don't apply to a number of Eastern religions and applying western ideas and philosophy on them. Its like trying to play soccer with base ball rules.

Nothing can exist outside of time, because that would also be bound to space, which means it occupies 0 space, which mean god is within the Zeroth dimension. That means that God in your eyes doesn't necessarily have 0 size, just an undefined size, it could be infinite or infinitesimally small. Without time, no action can be taken, therefore nothing can be created. You God's God's God's God's God's would still have to exist within time, which means God would still have to exist within the last 13.6 billion years, which means your argument is null.
Something within the Zeroth dimension can't be observed, because light wouldn't be able to pass through something with no time, meaning it might as well be non existent.

The US government investigated UFOs and found out that humanity was created by ancient aliens. In the official report, they basically stated this determination before closing the case.

So I think 'God' and 'Satan' should be interpreted as races of beings, not individuals. Once you read the bible from this context, a LOT of shit that didn't make any fucking sense, even from a spiritual context, starts to makes sense from a historical context. I have done some research into this over the past month or so, and I had already come to this conclusion before finding what the US military came to conclude.

Its not going to matter when I die. I have a one in infinity chance of ascending upon my death and taking up the mantle of godhood. A world that diverges off the course of semitic philosophy that all men were born as maggots of the Earth.
When I die and clutch onto my firm affirmations of becoming a god that man needs in these crucial times, I will be saddened for a mere moment knowing that your reality will be without my radiance.
This is my belief, and it affects ne specifically and no one else.

>muh God is cruel

For man will heark'n to his glozing lyes, - devil's
And easily transgress the sole Command,
Sole pledge of his obedience: So will fall, [ 95 ]
Hee and his faithless Progenie: whose fault?
Whose but his own? ingrate, he had of mee
All he could have; I made him just and right,
Sufficient to have stood, though free to fall.
Such I created all th' Ethereal Powers [ 100 ]
And Spirits, both them who stood and them who faild;
Freely they stood who stood, and fell who fell.
Not free, what proof could they have givn sincere
Of true allegiance, constant Faith or Love,

Where onely what they needs must do, appeard, [ 105 ]
Not what they would? what praise could they receive?
What pleasure I from such obedience paid,
When Will and Reason (Reason also is choice)
Useless and vain, of freedom both despoild,
Made passive both, had servd necessitie, [ 110 ]
Not mee. They therefore as to right belongd,
So were created, nor can justly accuse
Thir maker, or thir making, or thir Fate,
As if predestination over-rul'd
Thir will, dispos'd by absolute Decree [ 115 ]
Or high foreknowledge; they themselves decreed
Thir own revolt, not I: if I foreknew,
Foreknowledge had no influence on their fault,
Which had no less prov'd certain unforeknown.
So without least impulse or shadow of Fate, [ 120 ]
Or aught by me immutablie foreseen,

They trespass, Authors to themselves in all
Both what they judge and what they choose; for so
I formd them free, and free they must remain,
Till they enthrall themselves: I else must change [ 125 ]
Thir nature, and revoke the high Decree
Unchangeable, Eternal, which ordain'd
Thir freedom, they themselves ordain'd thir fall.
The first sort by thir own suggestion fell,
Self-tempted, self-deprav'd: Man falls deceiv'd [ 130 ]

That's perfect Christian logic.

Do you hear yourself right now? Just because the average person couldn't understand Calculus, doesn't mean destroy the text and write over it.
The average person doesn't understand what a neutrino is, does that mean destroy every book that tries to explain what a neutrino is?
Fuck man, this logic hurts sometimes, but is a good source for laughs with the boys.

666 master post.
I don't know how to prove to you the others were different people, but by my well thought out replies numbering over 40 at this point, and the fact that most of them were walls of texts, I don't see how you could assume I was samefagging.
That's why after maybe my 3rd post or so, I thought it'd be a good idea to start namefagging. I can't prove it, but you can infer they were different people.
I'd almost assume if I were one of the many theists arguing against one man, that replies so quickly, and in an articulated way, that I was arguing with many people under the same false name. What do I know, I'm just Johan.

While I'm listening to the AE, I'll say this. I conceded I can't prove anything, unlike you theists that assume you're right.
I'd assume if you can check, just see the IPs or locations of the computers that are hosting the IPs, it's not like I'm using a proxy server. I'm just not tech savvy, but I'm sure someone who is can prove I'm not lying.
Completely different, someone can prove I'm not same fagging, but right now, you can't prove God(s) exist. Nice try though newfriend.

It wasn't the only copy retard, they probably had dozens of copies and where out of velum, they then saw they had extra copies on hand and used this copy for new writing.

Ask yourself why none of the mudslime, roman, greek, or chinese records remain? Because most where written on papyrus, rice paper, or other less hardy material velum is so fucking resistant to fire and decay that it lasts centuries. Hence why this scratch paper survived to many various uses and the impregnated ink remained in it.

Also the recorded material isn't actually calculus.

Atheist here.
To me it sounds like you are using the typical rhetoric without playing devil's advocate yourself and try to defend god.
For one, your argument attacks Christianity or other faiths (such as Islam or Judaism) which emphasize that God actually cares and interacts with humans.
In fact, your argument does not debunk Deism at all.
I could defend the Christian God against your attacks as they do not completely succeed in attacking it; however that would take some work and I don't feel like it.

It's not easy to defend it, that's why I said it would take some work, and I am not really in the mood to do so.
Also, even if I defend the Christian God, it wouldn't disprove atheism. It would merely be a defense so it would not be playing for a victory in the argument but rather a draw.

Using sensationalism to try and sways others only shows how little truth your argument holds.

No one here has changed their love of God because of your half assed arguments.
>>
>>35759155
The reason I don't want to argue it is because I am not religious.
If I was religious then your arguments would be attacking my pride and thus I would be compelled to address them.
Because I am atheist, and your arguments are not attacking my pride as an atheist, I am not compelled to expend extra energy to play devil's advocate.
I am merely saying that it is possible to defend the Christian God to encourage you to try to attack your own arguments to see what you can come up with.

>>Evolution is the change in allele frequencies over time.
Evolution does not disprove the existence of God.
>There's a fundamental problem with god, and this is the issue of infinite regression
You're misunderstanding the "everything needs a creator" argument.
All things subject to the laws of science came from something. This pattern cannot continue indefinitely, and therefore must have its origin in something that is not subject to the laws of science. Christians assume this to be God.
>If God did this, that means he knew we would do wrong in this world. God knew 30,000 humans would starve to death worldwide daily. God knew Middle Easterners would rape and kill women by stoning for fun. God knew that some North Koreans would never know the light of day, think everyone is either born a prisoner or guard, and die in a chemical weapons testing chamber.
You make the mistake of assuming that the Christian's point of view is Earth-centric. It's not. We're put here as a fair way of deciding whether we go to Heaven or to Hell. If a good person dies an untimely death, this is not bad for him. This is good for him. It means that he gets to leave Earth and go to Heaven. If a bad person dies, well, he got what was coming to him. God did foresee all of the untimely deaths that would happen, along with all of the shitty lives. This does not make Him cruel. What's eighty years tops of bad shit that you don't deserve compared to an eternity of good stuff that you do deserve? It's nothing.

What an argument. Considering the laws of nature and universalist theory like evolution must be constant throughout existence or it is invalid. God, or our knowledge of one states (the bible) that we were created in his image. If there is already an image, evolution cannot exist.

Just coming to say that this picture seems, in fact, to be bullshit.
I mean, considering the 24th prophet of Jainism lived around 700 to 600 BC, I doubt that religion was only born in 1000 BC.
Also, this does not represent the HUGE links between zoroastrism and hinduism.
Finally, anyone has a source on that 900 BC date for judaism ? I mean, the jews claim 1500 BC, and the oldest synagogue in the world dates back to around 700 BC, so I have no idea where this date came from.
