On Atheist..What do you think?

Thanks for the response. I really appreciate it. It's so simple. A-theist means the absence of God (Theist). So you must believe there is God then deny that there is God. If there's no Theist (God) then no atheist. Thankful is for God only.

Thats like saying the easter bunny must also exist even though we deny its existence. I see where you're coming from now but I think its a flawed argument. With my belief system god is nothing more than a fictional character, like santa claus or the easter bunny. We know fictional characters do not exist so there is no debate on their existance, they simply don't. The only reason why there are atheists is because the popular belief is that god exists (theists). If the tables were turned and most people believed that god didn't exist we would even be having this conversation.

That's different. It's unclever logic. How could you make an easter bunny parallel with God? No easter bunny in the beginning but there's God in the beggining of the world. It's not a popular believe. Maybe atheist is a popular believe now. But God is still in every people heart. Why? It's a sense of Deity.. But Atheist deny it.

Hi Kurpix, I realize you were just posting your opinion, but it's factually incorrect. Athiests do not believe that gods exist at all, and most think of them as a concept invented by man. It is also possible for atheists to practice a regligion, for example Buddhism does not involve worshiping a god. As for trust, atheists do have relationships with other people built around trust, just like anyone else. I'm not sure what the original poster means by existential atheism. The existential philosophers were atheists, but you don't commonly hear the two terms linked, or hear athiests referring to themselves as existentialists. My impression of the writers associated with existentialism is that they were going through a grief process as they came to terms with the realization that the God beliefs they'd been raised with didn't make sense. Athiesm isn't all about doom and gloom. Most of us are quite happy.

Actually, there's different types of Atheist. I'm dealing with the the existential Atheist, I don't know if it's a good definition. Thanks for the information. I really appreciate it.

you're welcome! thanks for ur appreciate!

I always admired atheists. I think it takes a lot lot lot of faith.

Yup..that's true.. Thanks for the opinion. I really appreciate it.

Actually the discussion is not only a simple discussion. I mean, I want to talk about the existence of man. Where was man come? If Atheist thinks man came from nothing, then if you thank to a guy who came from nothing, then you thank to nothing...It's different if you thank to the Creator...He is everything...

Thanks for the opinion. I really appreciate it. But where did your girl friend and your son come from and where will they go? I think, you will answer: NOTHING... So you thank for NOTHING... What do you think?

Because we know a lot about how brains work, and we have lots of evidence to support the idea that minds don't exist without a supporting structure. We also have a lot of evidence to support evolution, and that simple creatures pre-date complex ones. I'd say it takes a tiny bit of faith to be an athiest (the same amount of faith I have that, if I let go of an object I'm holding, it will fall).

You believe to all evidences..wow.. You must have a big faith to believe to all the evidences.. We need a big faith to believe to sciences that always changing...Wow I really admire someone like you...

How could you so sure that the brains has develop long after the sun and planet were created? I think it takes a lot of faith. That's the reason...

Thanks for sharing it.. I really appreciate it. We are the very sensitive human.

If there is no God, than man is created out of nothing. THen you thank to man man that out of nothing. It means you thank to nothing. If you thank to goodness. What is goodness? Where does it come from? From God? No..from nothing? Yes..Then you thank to nothing. That's the reason of my word.

That is true if you think god created us. I do not beleive that though and just like everyone else we really do not know who what or how we were created.

think about that in the exact same logic, except reverse.. if there was no God, there would be no us to not believe or believe in him

Thanks for the opinion.I really appreciate it. You thank to yourself??? The creation must thank to his Creator. Where do you come from? Why do you still alive and could earn some money? It is because of yourself? Do you made your life? If you thank to yourself then you thank to nothing..Because you will die and you are nothing...

Thanks for the information. That's great. I really appreciate it.

We were created by the Creator. The Creator is the first Cause, we don't need to ask where God come from. Because He is the source.

If there is no God, then man is created out of nothing. Then you thank to man that is out of nothing. It means you thank to nothing.

Well, if you insist I thank something I could thank physics. If your argument is that we and our world MUST have been created by a god because otherwise we came from nothing, then where did god come from? If something can only exist if a creator created it, then god must also have a supreme being. You can't have it both ways. Well.... YOU can believe whatever you want of course. But your argument doesn't cut the mustard with me.

It's not really a choice. Look down at your shirt. What color is it? Could you choose to believe it's a different color? We're also not typically sad and lonely. We form relationships with other people, and we treasure the short time we have here on earth.
