Very few atheists claim that they have proof that God doesnt exist or present their rationale as proof-material.

[QUOTE="Snipes_2"][QUOTE="Fudgycakes"][QUOTE="Snipes_2"] I tried multiple times using Miracles etc...Nothing will sway their view.

Miracles? Name one that has happened outside the Bible.

Numerous Eucharistic Miracles: The Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano for example.

The story of a miracle that happened in Italy in the 8th century? Yeaaaaahh, pictures or videos are more preferably.

Prove to me that there isn't a gerbil in the center of the sun.

urdead18

Too hot for a Gerbil to live on the sun :) IT would be disintegrated. Now why would you want to Disintegrate a Gerbil? :evil:

The gerbil is immune to heat. As a matter of fact, it's invincible. Period.

It's....Super Gerbil!

First you must put forward a definition of God before we can discuss the matter of his existence. If you mean either the God of the Bible or the Torah, then dinosaur fossils prove it. If you mean a god similar to the God presented in either the Bible or the Torah, then you'll need to state how he differers, which parts of the text are accurate descriptions and which are not etc.

There is no proof that God does not exist. There is also no proof that God does exist. Both Atheism and Religion are ignorant and foolish. Agnosticism for-teh-wan.LiftedHeadshot

What about agnostic atheists?

Ok atheists, Im not here to make you try to believe in god because thats not my job but he does exist. But you dont believe that, so tell me where is you proof that he doesn't? Simple question right,so proof it?

x8VXU6
Someone who doesn't believe in something (God or otherwise) can't prove it. It's impossible to prove a negative. You can't prove the Easter Bunny doesn't exist either. Lack of proof for God's NON-existence is not a legitimate argument for the existence of God.

I'm going to assume that you're a Christian, correct me if I am wrong though.

Anyhow show me how it's done by proving how Anubis, Osiris, Zeus, Apollo, Shiva, Odin, Ares, Athena, Tezcatlipoca, Tonatiuh, Horus, Cernunnos doesn't exist and I'll use your method.

I feel this is a flawed analogy as we basically know of the existence of all of those things by way of senses. Yes, our senses have to be enhanced by things like electron microscopes or such other apparatus, but it's still through the use of our senses that we know about them. I guess you could argue that we personally have never observed them, but we trust respected individuals who say they have.

No, it is a much more realistic thing to believe that some human who happened to be king was born. I think you deliberately tried to miss the point or else you just fail miserably. What would not be very realistic is if you told me that a dragon existed around the middle ages. And neither do I believe that.

But this is my point.

as and when the technology exists to prove that god exists, i will believe in him.

But right now, at this point in time, the proof is not there that he does. with the help of technology or not, i do need proof.

Numerous Eucharistic Miracles: The Eucharistic Miracle of Lanciano for example.

And where is the proof that this actually happened?

It's documented. In the 1970s they tested the remains (Scientifically), here's what they found: 1). The flesh is real Flesh, The blood is Real Blood 2). The flesh consists of the muscular tissue of the heart (Myocardium) 3). The flesh and blood belong to the human species 4). The flesh and blood have the same blood type (AB) 5). In the blood there were found proteins in the same normal proportions as are found in the scro-proteic make up of fresh, normal blood. 6). In the blood there were also found these minerals: Chlorides, phosphorous, magnesium, potassium, sodium, and calcium. 7). The preservation of the flesh and blood, which were left in their natural state for twelve centuries (Without any chemical preservatives) and exposed to the action of atmospheric and biological agents, remains an extraordinary phenomenon.

I'm obviously not arguing that we should discount the existence of such things; I just don't like the so easily countered suggestion that because one cannot sense God then God may be assumed not to exist.

again extreme miss of point. What sounds more realistic. Some dude from the middle ages that didn't do anything supernatural or a god? and well, if anyone wrote down that he did anything supernatural, I believe it was a lie anyway.

The fact that you're asking such a common, unsophisticated question shows that you're not very experienced in this kind of debate. The burden of proof is on the person claiming god exists. However, if you specify attributes of your god, there's a good chance many of them will be contradictory.

Microbes, subatomic particles, black holes...

I feel this is a flawed analogy as we basically know of the existence of all of those things by way of senses. Yes, our senses have to be enhanced by things like electron microscopes or such other apparatus, but it's still through the use of our senses that we know about them. I guess you could argue that we personally have never observed them, but we trust respected individuals who say they have.

I'm obviously not arguing that we should discount the existence of such things; I just don't like the so easily countered suggestion that because one cannot sense God then God may be assumed not to exist.

And while your logic is reasonable. I could tell you that there is a fruit that when you eat it, it will make you sprout pink gooseberries from your hair.

While you can't prove whether or not such a fruit exists, it would be irrational to believe such a claim without proof.

I am not saying you should not believe in god, i am saying that in my 28 years, i haven't seen, or felt anyhting that indicates the presence of a supreme being watching me, protecting me, loving me.

[QUOTE="harashawn"][QUOTE="ShadowJax04"] No, it is a much more realistic thing to believe that some human who happened to be king was born. I think you deliberately tried to miss the point or else you just fail miserably. What would not be very realistic is if you told me that a dragon existed around the middle ages. And neither do I believe that.ShadowJax04
We have no proof that Henry VIII existed besides stories and paintings. Basically, the same with God.

again extreme miss of point. What sounds more realistic. Some dude from the middle ages that didn't do anything supernatural or a god? and well, if anyone wrote down that he did anything supernatural, I believe it was a lie anyway.

Also there is more historical evidence for the existence and activities of Henry VIII than there is for god, such as multiple documents from various sources that can be connected with other events that corrorborate the story and are similarly backed up by multiple documents. The Bible has nowhere near the amount of corrorborating evidence as other historical documents.

I'm going to assume that you're a Christian, correct me if I am wrong though.

Anyhow show me how it's done by proving how Anubis,Osiris, Zeus, Apollo, Shiva, Odin, Athena, Tezcatlipoca, Tonatiuh doesn't exist and I'll use your method.

I think you forgot a couple of gods and avatars ;)

Gah, I don't want to spend the rest of my morning typing up thousands upon thousands of names :P.

Don't forget the Gnostic Pleroma. Everyone's paired off, male and female plus they believe that the "god" that created the world is an idiot who thought he was the only one and created the world and humanity in an effort of folly. Oh yes, said god was also brought about because one of the lower female gods tried to procreate without a man.

I really hate these kinds of threads... "Christians, prove that god exists, oh wait you can't, you have no proof." "Atheists, prove that God doesn't exist, because I say so."

Because the existance of a god is not reasonable. I simply cannot bring myself to believe in something that isn't real. I'd believe in Star wars before i believed in a god or ghosts or angels.

If someone believes in a god, then they believe something that can't happen can actually happen, which means they don't believe in reality.

I'm sure the idea that everything just appeared is totally reasonable though right?
