Atheism, the disbelief of a higher power(god)

>>725123858
I'm going to have to disagree with this.

Atheists define atheism as believing that there is no God. Where they fall short is explaining why anything exists if there is no god.

I think that ultimately they think that everything just randomly came into place (and tend to disregard the obvious beauty in creation/origin of the set of physical rules that guide this universe).

>>725126261
pfft, god cant explain how he came into existence. checkmate, my friend

>>725126849
I'm not Christian, but agnostic, I suppose.

Still, I think that those who feel confidence that this universe wasn't consciously created are misguided.

>>725126849
God exists outside of time, so has always existed. God never had a beginning at all.

>>725126976
but what happened before that?

>>725127090
What part of "outside of time" do you not understand?

meh, everyone is entitled to their own beliefs.
its way more important to realize that being afraid and concerned about b8 argument threads like this and in real life just divides people way more than it should.
there are christians and atheists in the world and whatever we are, we should all be grown up about it, together

Haha! religious/theist people say "Well how does matter just exist if there is no God then?" Then how was God created? Who created God? If you justify it by saying God was always there, then maybe I justify by saying maybe matter was always there.

Atheists: 48432474938

Theists: 0

Ignosticism has a better definition, and it is pretty much weak atheism.

Where do you get the idea that we're afraid or in any way concerned about people with other beliefs? Fuck, most of my friends are atheists. No one gives a shit.

>>725127699
Checked

>>725126944
I feel exactly opposite. Do you understand probability and how large the universe is?

The explanation of "shit works if it's built right" combined with the amount of shit that gets randomly stuck together in the universe explains everything except where the shit came from, and we've already got some ideas on how we can start to study that.

I don't understand what you mean, op

>>725127744
who's we? there are plenty of militants on both sides.
and as well, there are just as many people on each side that just dont give a fuck

I have a question

Wheres is god when all the people get rekt in a thread?

>>725127668
Ignosticism is the idea that the question of the existence of God is meaningless. Atheism in knowing there is no God. It's different, but I see what you mean.

>>725127764
Yes, I understand both (although, the size of the universe is not something we know for certain).

However, I think it is incredible not so much that things like Earth have happened within our universe, so much as it is incredible that we have a system of physics that allows something like Earth.

The rules of physics could have been anything; in fact, the most simple set of rules (which is what would naturally seem the most likely to occur) would be for nothing to ever exist in any capacity anywhere.

Our current set of physics provides the potential for all the building blocks of life, which is truly amazing (and perhaps not just thanks to chance).

>>725127809
You realize Big Bang theory is essentially that, right? When you boil it down, it's just that there was a super dense, tiny speck of all matter that exploded, expanding into our universe.

>>725128064

>>725128040
It's not like there aren't plenty of Atheists on both sides of the political spectrum now, too. I understood the argument better when it was more related to Right/Left. Now it's just a matter of preference, almost.

Why can't we have more variety in our memes and copypasta? And porn? I never hardly see say clown porn posted on /b/. I'm not really into it, but at least it would be a change of pace. Asian amateurs, traps, tits and/or ass, nigger/cuckold, rule 34 (it's always fucking anime or some lame-ass CN/Nick toon, and therefore no longer works as originally intended), etc., and of course the people who despise that type of porn but simply must open the thread and shitpost anyway, are all wonderful, but goddam it gets old day after day.

>>725128071
lack of belief is not belief. you are an idiot

>>725128071
Hard Atheism is knowing there is no God. Weak Atheism is different. With Ignosticism you first have to agree on a definition of god before you can even discuss it. Plus, that definition has to be falsifiable. To me, 'god' or 'God' is a title. It belongs to someone or something who either, A: inspires me with so much awe that I gladly bestow that title on them, or B: Someone or something that threatens, forces, or terrifies me into bestowing that title on them. I have not seen or met anyone or anything that legitimately meets those criteria. If someone has a different definition, I'd gladly hear it out, but I'll have to agree that it's valid before I'm going to waste my time discussing it.

>>725128579
The life of pi was the only viable argument for religion I've ever seen. "I don't like your reality, so I'll substitute my own". Not *bad*, however I find dealing with life full on to be much better overall.

Easter Bunny and Santa Clause was made up for a specific purpose, and so was your "god".

>>725128549
There is no "Hard" or "Weak" Atheism. Atheism in knowing there is no God. I'm pretty sure by "Weak Atheism" you mean Agnosticism. Agnosticism is not sure or not knowing if there is a God or not.

>>725128800
It's your anus! hard or weak? that's up to you.

>>725128800
Most Atheists are weak Atheists. https://www.thoughtco.com/definition-of-weak-atheism-247881

Educate yourself. Be stupid less.

>>725128960
Dude I'm tight as a motherfucker

>>725128800
By definition, we cannot know whether there is a god or not. Most everyone who calls themselves an Atheist, myself included, falls under the term Agnostic Atheist. Anyone who thinks they know one way or the other is either delusional or insane.

>>725128093
>I think it is incredible not so much that things like Earth have happened
Not really when you get trillions upon trillions of tries. If you believe enough monkeys could write Shakespeare given enough time, then you believe that the Earth and every other wondrous thing in the universe is an eventuality. Just an expression of the laws of our universe.

>the most simple set of rules would be for nothing to ever exist in any capacity anywhere.
There literally can't be nothing because we observe otherwise. There is a 100% probability of things existing because it's already happened and we know the results.

>Our current set of physics provides the potential for all the building blocks of life
A different set of physics would provide the potential for a different kind of life. It's arrogant and stupid to think that our way is the only way.

Here's how life formed.

>complex molecules formed naturally
>some of these molecules acted as catalysts that formed similar molecules
>these similar molecules acted as catalysts for other similar molecules
>natural selection ensues
>single-celled organisms ensue
>natural selection intensifies
>multicellular organisms ensue

>complex life developes

Bam. Life. All of God's creation reduced to a greentext on /b/

>>725129021
These "Weak Atheists" are stupid agnostics that can't let go of the religious beliefs that they were raised with a a child. There is no God. There is no proof of God. Deal with it. Badass atheist memester, over and out.

>>725129055
Well of course there is no way to disprove the existence of anything. But with the facts and proof that is provided, my opinion is well thought out.

>>725123858

>>725129384
So is your mothers vagina faggot. :3

>>725129175
I don't think you understood my point at in any capacity, and that's fine.

The trillions and trillions of tries were all done with the same set of rules. When talking about the origin of things (e.g., the universe), the origin of the set of rules come into play too.

Would a one-dimensional universe have the capacity to sustain life?

Why are there molecules in the first place? Atoms? Protons? Electrons? Quarks?

Yes they exist, so there is a 100% chance of them existing. So why question where they came from? There is also a 100% chance that Earth exists, yet here we are discussing it's origins.

You seem smart; I hope this has helped to clear up where I am coming from. Regardless, I'm going to sleep now. Best wishes, anon.

>>725129325
I never said the position that the Abrahamic God(or any god) does not exist wasn't well thought out. I simply posited that your claim of knowledge of something that by definition, cannot be known, makes you one of two things; insane, or delusional. I think my point is made.

>>725129188
You're too stupid to be an Atheist. Seriously. You should pick up a religion so other people can think for you. It will help you get by in life.

What a fag. You obviously don't understand the concepts you're talking about and your posts drip with pop-science nonsense. Enjoy your delusion.

>>725129616
He did, your points are retarded. You are asking for inherent meaning in life,the universe, everything where there is none, we all make our own meaning.

>One dimensional universe question
Yes if you subscribe to the Big Bang Theory our own universe was once one dimensional, everything was a single infinitely dense point, there was once, no up no down, no left or right, or forward or back.
>Why?
This is infantile and retarded, there is no inherent meaning to the universe, believing some deity created you or any of us does not change that.

The rest of your post serves no purpose but to stroke your own ego, so GTFO faggot.

>>725129653
It's called rounding it off... I don't believe the flying spaghetti monster exists because I don't think that it is physically possible. Because I don't think spaghetti can come alive and fly defying the laws of gravity. Just how I know that when i drop a rock on Earth, that it will fall to the ground. Even Richard Dawkins (a famous Atheist) regards himself as just Atheist. Yes he has said before that you can't disprove of anything. But still though, I don't think it makes you insane when you use logic XD.

He puts himself at 6.9 on his own scale faggot, he's smart enough to know that he can't know whether there's a god or not. You're just showing how retarded, egotistical and delusional you are by continuing to expound your bullshit. I am an Atheist, but I do not claim to know that there is no God. The only fucking that would make me believe in a deity is the particular deity, whichever one you or anyone would like to put here, coming down and proving he or she exists to my fucking face. I don't claim to know for certain, nor can I, in truth.

No, you were, being supported by the facts, and the fact is you might not be, does not make you 100% right, does not gift you with knowledge that no person has. I'm taking issue with the way in which you went about stating your opinion and beliefs, like they're facts, and the only conclusion someone can come to. Going about it that way is off-putting, and if your intention was to help turn someone away from belief in any god or gods, you failed utterly.

You can't explain how the universe came to be. I mean, the most common explanation is that everything came from nothing, but 1) that's the same explanation theists use, 2) what was there during the "nothing"? What set off the Big Bang?

>>725131751
I never said I was 100% right and I never said my opinion was fact. " I'm taking issue with the way in which you went about stating your opinion and beliefs, like they're facts." That's your opinion. The Abrahamic Religions embrace Rape, Sexism, Slavery, Homophobia and Transphobia. Don't even deny it. I have read the bible. I know the vile things that it says. I just hope one day it dies off.

>>725132030
It's likely that we never will, the fact that science may not be able to answer some questions, is not a reason to live in ignorance.
>>725132175
I've stated 5 fucking times that I am also an Atheist, dumbass. I know whats in the bible, and how fucking despicable it's God really is. I happen to have grown up in a Catholic family. The answers I got about belief in God and other religious questions were never satisfactory. So I turned to science, logic, and reason to be my guiding principles, and came to the conclusion when I was but a lad, that there was no God, but I recognize that I cannot know. I unlike you would rather not be an ass to religious persons and tell them their beliefs are idiocy, even though I believe it is idiocy. I actually DISCUSS their beliefs with them and slowly but surely break down their beliefs, until they see that religions are just bullshit, or not. I don't really care if someone chooses to believe or not, only that if they do, they know what it is they believe in.
