No. I'm not interested in how you responded to atheists on other forums. If you want to have a discussion with people here, I suggest you do so.

Can I eat your babies? We atheists love to eat a couple of babies for breakfast. They go great with a side of eggs, you know.
Just kidding. Welcome to our little nut house community. Enjoy your stay! |

I can only reply at a certain time of each day. If you want can't wait for even 24 hours, I don't know who's being unpolite here.
'Whether you care to admit it or not, belief in god(s) is superstition, and irrational." - I don't disagree with that. But to be sure that there is no God, one would require trust in that our findings and evidence are complete and human intelligence is complete enough to interpret the evidence/findings absolutely. If no one can provide logical or scientific support on either of those statements, then that would mean to believe there can't be a God would require faith. "I'm not interested in how you responded to atheists on other forums. If you want to have a discussion with people here, I suggest you do so." - ok being moderator doesn't mean you tell people what they already know. |

Well this is a pointless thread. The guy brings out a load of half-baked claims with the strange belief that he is being somewhat original, and then he doesn't respond to the replies. THEN he makes an entirely different thread explaining that he is not a Jehovah's witness. Who said he was?

Not being sure something is impossible is not a good reason to believe it. |

Tuvar addresses your points in much the same way I would. We make no claims to infallibility or omniscience, saukhasi; in fact we would say that such absolute abilities are impossible in this universe described by the Heisenberg Uncertainty Principle. Absolute anything appears to be impossible.
Since God is defined as having several absolute properties, we don't see how such a being can exist in this universe. So, we lack belief in your god, or any other about which we've been told; while we won't say that it's impossible that there are universes other than this one wherein something that might be called a god might exist, we know nothing about any other universe. Therefore honesty compels us to disbelieve in god(s). |
