The stumbling block for atheists.

[Ken-1122]

Only to be told that they aren't really doing it? I think I'll pass on that.

Yeah you might wanna pass on that one

 

[Radrook]

Okay so your book says there is no excuse for dismissing your Gods existence, and my book says there is no excuse for dismissing pink unicorns. Why does your book trump mine?

Because there is no evidence for unicorns existing.

 

[Radrook]

Yeah you might wanna pass on that one

Why would I want to waste my time?

 

[Strathos]

Because there is no evidence for uniforns existing.

Tell that to the KJVO brigade.

 

[Radrook]

KJVO? Ah you re referring to the typo "üniforms" as opposed to "unicorns".
Thanks for pointing that out.

 

[Ken-1122]

Because there is no evidence for uniforns existing.

That's what you say, I say there is no evidence of your God existing. If you don't believe me, why should I believe you?

 

[Radrook]

That's what you say, I say there is no evidence of your God existing. If you don't believe me, why should I believe you?

Because what you say doesn't harmonize with reality.
What I say does.

 

[Ken-1122]

What I say does.

Prove it.

 

[Radrook]

Prove it.

That's like inviting me to topple over a brick wall by banging me head against it.

Actually I'm referring to the fact that certain people who hold literally to the King James translation believe the unicorns mentioned in the Bible were literal unicorns, not aurochs.

No that's like me asking you to back up a claim that you made.

.....
But atheism has one fatal flaw. It assumes....

The "false atheism" is not the product of mind. It is product of will.
(Atheism is anti-idolatry, but the false atheism is anti-Godness.)

 

[Astrophile]

What does the O stand for?

'Only'.

 

[Radrook]

There is no backing up claims for atheists when a creator is involved.

Wait, if atheism is not having a belief in a god or gods, then false atheism must logically be having a belief in a god or gods, i.e. theism/deism.

The atheism is fight against FALSE gods (it means: idols). The false atheism is fight against the God.

Another claim? Can you provide an example of a claim atheist make that they are unable to back up?

I am not on this science forum with the purpose of engaging atheists in long-drawn -out useless debates which accomplish nothing. I could get the same effect by having a recording constantly droning-

"I caint see!"

And that is the point at which you lose any of your audience who might otherwise be disposed to find merit in your arguments.
