This shit has retroactively ruined Never-ending Story for me. When I was a kid it was my favourite movie.

People who aren't going to call themselves Christians and pay lip service at a boring ass church once a week just cause we're either afraid of hell or really keen on heaven. Seriously, fear of punishment and promise of reward is not a good reason to devote your life to a book written thousands of years ago by homophobic, racist, sexist, slave enthusiasts.

Energy must have a source in order to exist.

Thermodynamic laws state energy cannot be created or destroyed, yet our universe had a definite beginning according to modern scientific studies, therefore it must have a source.

Beyond this reality something must have given the universe physical laws similar to how a programmer writes code for a simulation.

At least be open to the idea of a beginning, I am not completely sure how or why we are here, but I am certain we had a beginning in essence.

If that's true, as you say, then where did God come from? To say he didn't need one is special pleading.

It's entirely possible that we could be a part of an infinite regress of causes, or that at a fundamental level, existence is eternal. In either case, reality would have no "beginning" or "creator", it simply "is".

You literally said "every atheist thinks of himself as a God", and in this context that translates to "every atheist thinks x". That's a generalization based on personal bias, because I am currently an atheist who does NOT think of himself as "God" thereby proving your broad generalization wrong.

Atheists believe very specifically that there is no god. While this may be true it also can't be proven. They could very well prove that the Christian belief system is false but proving that there's no god of any variety is an immensely harder task, and frankly I don't see how it would help anyone even if they did manage to prove it.

And yet there's still mass allegations of rape by priests in churches. Apparently they didn't think it was so bad. Probably thought if they prayed they could be forgiven. Now there's a major flaw in Christianity, the thought that anything can be forgiven but suicide (Only cause you can't ask for forgiveness after.) Wow all that forgiveness for fucking atrocities must be super convenient.

Nah, there are particular sets of behaviors that lead to a more desired outcome.
Just look at game theory. It gives you a better outcome in the long run to be nice if possible, and only respond with force if attacked first.
Game theory is really cool.
Once particular sets of behavior are identified as being the optimal ones to take in a particular situation you codify them, and that's where you get morals, norms, and taboos from.

It's almost impossible to prove the non-existence of something. Besides, I'm not going to waste either of our time arguing with someone who has a mindset built around faith. Faith doesn't need reason by definition, and an argument doesn't help anything and makes both parties angry.
Besides, its not like I have a moral imperative to save souls or anything.

Unless you're saying that the separation of church and state is what "works in most cases", in which case:

We, in the US, have had a serious problem separating the two in the last century. This is why laws passed regarding abortion ALWAYS include exemptions for "religious beliefs". And why states have been able to pass anti-LGBT laws in the last few years. Because homosexuality is against their RELIGION.

In either case: it doesn't "work".

Exactly, it's morality by fiat. This is one horn of the Euthyphro Dilemma, that whatever is good is good because God says so, meaning that what is morally right is a arbitrary opinion.

The moment you say that God is good, by your own judgement, you are exercising your own moral compass, and therefore are no better than the Atheists. If you say God is good only because God says so (through the Bible), you have abdicated your moral judgement, and therefore have become amoral, aka NOT moral.

>It's almost impossible to prove the non-existence of something.

"You can't prove a negative" is self-contradicting; it is itself a "negative" statement, making the claim that it is not the case that one can prove a negative.

atheists still try to use it as an excuse for not supporting their assertions that God doesn't or is unlikely to exist, not realizing that if this fallacy were true, it would refute these assertions - yes, including any assertion of the likelihood of God's existence: "It is not the case that it is likely that God exists" or, if you want to conveniently define "likely" as meaning something like "over 50% chance," then "It is not the case that it is not unlikely that God exists."

In fact, "negative" things don't objectively exist; it is just semantics used in logic; and literally any truth claim can be a "negative" statement, such that anything can not not be true, represented in logic as ~~p or ~~q.

But you want to say that you can only not prove something with an odd number of "nots" or negations? Prove it. Oh, you can't.

This shit is just another example of how atheists stupidly just believe and subsequently mindlessly regurgitate whatever their bias-confirming heroes like sam harris, lawrence krauss, or sean carroll say, all of whom are not logicians or philosophers, and whom know next to nothing about what even constitutes a true statement.

atheists are just a bunch of whining, non-thinking degenerates, and you need to get off this board.

There's two types of morals, without any divine institution:

1) Morals of the self (e.g. what you choose to do, for your own sake of wanting);

2) Morals of the whole (e.g. what's objectively best for each other individual around you).

By reconciling those two classes of moral concepts, one can define their own code of morals.

Not quite. The universe exists because it must. Nonexistence is actually, logically impossible. The true absence of anything can never be possible (as all systems are, at their simplest point, binary - in order to have 0, you need 1), and thus the universe must exist.

Here's the truth. Yes, morals are built from religious teachings. Without religion, we wouldn't have morals.
So why does the catholic church sit on billions of dollars of real estate, priceless works of art and financial assets that have been accumulating for centuries - yet they stand by and watch half of the world starve?
Why do countless priests abuse their positions of power and the children they are trusted to care for?
They break their own rules because they know that religion is built upon lies. Their morals, their 'code' is a sham.
This is why we don't hear about ethics and logic any more. They leave no wriggle room for politicians and lawyers. Ethics are not built upon the bronze age ramblings of sheep farmers. Ethics are built upon logic, and therefore immutable. I'll take ethics over 'morals' any day.
