The Achilles Heel of Atheism

[quatona]

My God is true. Do you hate me so much that your willing to reject my belief in God?

Your calling me a liar for beliving in God. The truth is, God is true. Believe it? Don't get me wrong, your choice is your choice. I believe in God and He is true. Please stop calling me a liar by saying Im worng. God forbid I prove to one that doubts, anything.

That´s a pretty big chip you´ve got on your shoulder.

 

[lordistrength]

That is Gods job.

 

[quatona]

God burdened you with this persecution complex?

Believe in the truth, there is no exhange. I did not force you to comment my post. Please refrain from doing so.

You're not being called a liar. We accept that you believe as you do. We simply believe you are misguided, wrong, incorrect or at the very minimum without logical and evidential foundation.

Someone calling you incorrect is not the same as someone calling you a liar.

I shall refer all of you back to my repeated requests that we stay on topic.

Please let us return to the topic and question at hand.

This is the fourth or fifth time I have asked this.

 

[Philothei]

Mod hat on
Please avoid flaming other members and please stay on topic!
Plus deal with the topic and the post NOT the poster
Thanks!
Mod hat off

You look at me and still question? Lol

Yes... you said you had evidence, so I'd like you to produce it.

 

[Dave Ellis]

Now, if an atheist claims the truth is wrong, how am I to think and respond to one on a limited forum with so many rules?

Shall I get kicked? Only by those that reject God and choose to serve the world.

I don't think any atheist would try to argue the truth is wrong.... it's just that we think what is actually real is different from what you think is.

So, we must look at evidence to give us the best shot at determining fact from fiction. So far we see none supporting your case, so we can't really accept it as true.

What do you, as an atheist, think is actually real that Christians do not think is actually real?

 

[Dave Ellis]

Well, it's my belief that the Christian God doesn't exist for one.

I think the best way to discover what your looking for, is to peruse this site and you will answer your question from a variety of non-believers and christians posts.

 

[Cearbhall]

And I could ask you several simple questions to get to the heart of why you are an atheist...

One of them is as follows:

"Do you want the proposition: 'God exists', to be true?"

Yes or no?

Do you even care?

That's one of a countless number of questions, since the Abrahamic God is one of thousands of gods...I don't see why that question matters more than any other. No, I don't really care more than I care about the existence of any other god in which people have belief.

I'm barely more of an atheist than you are. It's the difference of one god.

That is rich coming from you my friend, have you ever considered the golden rule and afforded others the same respect and courtesy?

 

[Cearbhall]

I report this as against poster instead of against post.

Because he's saying that you defamed someone by falsely accusing a poster of attacking you.

Wow, you make so much sense.

Before what?

God is glroious, always and forever.

You don't really have to keep saying stuff like that in response to atheists. We can see your icon...

You look at me and still question? Lol

This is how I feel when people question evolution.

Interesting....

You say you do not care, and yet you are demonstrating that in some measure, you do care because you have taken the time to register to become a member of Christianforums (a Christian website) compile several posts within various forums, and several of these posts/replies specifically deal with God.

I believe if you care enough to do what you have done, than in at least one way it could honestly be said that you do care if God exists. If you did not care, you would not act as if you did.

If I say to you:

"I do not care at all about Spain's soccer club, or any other soccer club for that matter."

And then you find me on Spain's soccer club website in their forum posting here and posting there, and talking about various topics about the soccer club and other topics, surely you would think I was not being truthful when I said "I do not care at all about Spain's soccer club".

Having said that, I must now ask, is there anything you want to say regarding the OP?

Because our discussion currently is not pertinent to the original post.

 

[Elioenai26]

I have been a party in facilitating the derailing of several threads. I say this to my own shame....

But my intentions were not without merit. I simply desired to reply to people's posts as best and honestly as I could, even if those posts were one by one more and more off topic. I should have kept in mind that it is easy to get off topic and monitor how far I was getting off topic by replying to other people's off topic posts.

That is why my approach here has changed. I will not be answering questions that are not pertinent to the OP.

Oh for pete's sake. How many times do I have to answer this question? I should just save the link every time I answer it so I can post the links the next time I'm asked...

• "Know thine enemy" (But I only consider Christians the enemy in political and social arenas, not as people.)
• I want to understand those who have different beliefs than I, because you can never be too understanding and tolerant, and the majority of my society is Christian.
• Why preach to the choir?
• I enjoy debate because it challenges me to question and justify my own positions (I wish to base my opinions on logic, so this is important), and it's difficult to debate with people who share the vast majority of my views.
• It's good practice for arguing these issues, which is why I target the threads that are related to my studies and career interests. Even though the discussions on here are not of great consequence, it prepares me for more important discussions.
• I care that some of my rights are threatened by religion, which in the US mostly means Christianity.
• I want people to be more tolerant of irreligion.

In short, no. My presence here does not mean that I am subconsciously reaching for the light of your god or whatever. I care about finding the truth, but I don't prefer a certain conclusion.

 

[Gadarene]

Yeah, Cearbhall, presumably if you ever debate holocaust deniers, that means you want to secretly want kill teh jews, trolololol

I never said or even implied that your presence here meant that you were subconsciously reaching for the light of Christ.

What I did say was that your presence here and your repeated postings here contradict the following statement which you have made, and I quote:

"No, I don't really care [about the existence of the Abrahamic God] more than I care about the existence of any other god in which people have belief."

You act as if you know for a fact that the Abrahamic God does not exist. But since that is not even possible for you to know, I would recommend you continue your search for "finding truth" as you put it.

Whether or not God (The Greatest Conceivable Being) exists or not should be your biggest concern. For if He does, then it is only rational to think He can communicate with us, and if He can communicate with us, then it is only rational to think that He would want to, and if He would want to, then it is rational to think that He has....

So all this time, you very well might be apathetic to the One who desires to communicate with you.

 

[Cearbhall]

Check my icon. I apologize if I said something that seemed to contradict it.

Yeah, Cearbhall, presumably if you ever debate holocaust deniers, that means you want to secretly want kill teh jews, trolololol

Best discussion ever. I stayed out of that one...
