Why do atheists still use the "there are millions of gods and you chose the religion you're born with" argument?

if a religion dies out, then their god's existence is disproven
>>
>>2563378
Athiests became comfortable with themselves, once you become athiest , its hard to come back. So they dont bother themselves.
>>
>>2563378
It's a valid argument.

>>2563378
>if a religion dies out, then their god's existence is disproven

How?

>the one real true god exists

we are ALL FUCKED bros

Bitch please, you sound like richard dawkins saying why I shouldnt believe in zeus

>God still watches over us
He made us and then moved on to his next creation.
>>
>>2563419
No it's not
once your religion dies your god is disproven. plain and simple

>>2563425
no god would his religion die and his worshippers go extinct

>>2563432
This is unironically terrifying.
>>
>>2563378
and when people stop being Christian we can safely say it was complete fictional bullshit
>>
>21st century
>religion

Do you also believe in astrology? In homeopathy? Do you avoid going under ladders? What about black cats crossing your path?

People's stupidity still astonishes me.

atheists don't "use" that argument, though. the only qualifier for being an atheism is rejecting what theists like yourself posit as factual. there is no book of arguments for atheists, there is no school of apologetics.

maybe some atheists say that. why didn't you, uh, ask whoever you heard this from?

your argument is total trash anyway.

>once your religion dies your god is disproven
How is that connected with the strange coincidence the one true god is the one the one of your parents?
>>
>>2563445
Why are you saying those things like they are absolutely truths ? How are any of those things factual ?
>>
>>2563378
>Why do atheists still use the "there are millions of gods and you chose the religion you're born with" argument?

no atheist use the "there are millions of gods to chose from and they're all fictional" argument.
>>
>>2563445

What a truly and profoundly stupid thing to say.
>>
>>2563378
>if a religion dies out, then their god's existence is disproven

That's more of an atheist argument than the one you are debunking. I also believe that religions cease to exist when people stop believing in them.

What if a Real True god exists but he doesn't care about humans and actively prevents anyone from knowing about him?
>>
>>2563433
But zeus is literally marduk

syncretism triggers the pagan

>>2563500
You didnt get my point
>>
>>2563469
Never said my religion is right, and that's why i'm still in the religion-limbo sort of thing
>>
>>2563378
Most dominating religions in the world are monothiestic religions , so athiests should just believe in God,the one and only, what ever you call it. Dude even hindusim is monothiestic in core
>>
>>2563378
African tribals think God doesn't care if we believe
>>
>>2563378
Most people generally just follow the religion they are born into. This bears out across all human groups.

Can you prove that those dead religions are less valid than your own empirically?
>>
>>2563378
There are only a few religions practiced internationally, most of which (the Abrahamic religions and arguably Sikhism) essentially worship the same god. If there's one true god, it's that one.
>>
Why should I believe in a religion if I believe in god ?
>>
>>2563592
So I guess the trueness of any particular God is a function of the number of adherents based on percentage of population of living humans.

Does this mean that for any given god, his or hers trueness fluctuates over human history?

>no god would his religion die and his worshippers go extinct

So people get cancer and multiple sclerosis and shit because they have free will but religions won't die out because God won't let you have free will?
>>
>>2563598
It's possible that God demands specific rituals you must follow to avoid a punishment, which is what religions offer.
>>
>>2563598
So you would have a nation of believers to have each others back and live in a community to protect themselves.
>>
>>2563601
Or you can see it in a way that all religions came from God and each one got manipulated by mans imagination to the point that God sent another guider.

>HURR HE WANTED YOU TO REPLY

Believe it or not it's still enjoyable to reply to threads other people make with the intention of getting you to reply. But congratulations for being so intelligent and discovering the evil secret intention of the guy who posted this thread.

How do you know youre worshipping the right god?
>>
>>2563378
>if a religion dies out, then their god's existence is disproven

That doesn't follow. If someone stops believing in something, it doesn't cease to exist.
>>
Get ready for this redpill.

The 'gods' that most people know of are merely exceptionally powerful spiritual entities. Yahweh, Allah, Zeus, Thor, Ra, and so on all exist because humans believe in them.
>>
Easy way to frame and dismiss what is to be considered.
