Topic: Does God Exist?
Anonymous A started this discussion 6 years ago #91,635
So there you have it, a quick overview of Christian arguments for god. Feel free to use this stuff at home and on your own church website, not to mention in your classroom, but just be aware that when you do you've crossed a line of unacceptable behavior of atheists (and I'm sure the bible will do the same).In conclusion, what I'm about to say might not be to everyone's liking, but since I'm writing this as an atheist I think you should leave it to me to tell you what to do with your precious time and energy.
As I said in the beginning, I don't think God exists. I know he doesn't exist, and I know he's not real. I don't see how that makes him any more valuable than you and me, and that's the bottom line.
If you want to have a hard and thorough debate on the topic of religion, and you don't want to waste your time debating religious beliefs, why not use scientific method to see if God is real or not

Very well. First I need to know your theological and philosophical background. Tell me please, have you read the Bible?

Let me ask for proof this one god exists. Rare I read the bible. On occasion I look up what the bible says about some situation. Philosophical background is limited to two classes in school for Plato and Aristotle. I am always searching for wisdom and usually read the philosophy of Buddha. One course in Greek Mythology.
Why can't you prove God exists without bringing in theological and philosophical background. What if an uneducated person asks you for proof. And excuse my English because it is not my native language.

If there wasn't proof, what would be the problem? You believe lots of things without proof already, it's in our human nature to believe.

For the same reason proof of Fermat's Last Theorem can't be understood without mathematical knowledge.

Why didn't you just say, the question is not really in my area of expertise. May I suggest you just say, I’m not sure I’m the best person to answer your question.

Because that wouldn't be the correct answer.
