The Immorality Of This God

There Is Science In The Bible

And it was wrong.

God Proves God Exists

Supernatural Proves God

Non-Physical Human Characteristics Prove God

Believing In God By Not Understanding Evolution

More Sloppy Christian Thinking

Sloppy Christian Thinking

Christians Love Not To Know

The last guy nails it. Arguments from ignorance is the best evidence for a god and I would say Christians crave ignorance. The less you know the easier it is to believe. They love not to know to allude to a great Chris Rock bit. Irreducible Complexity. Tide goes in, tide goes out, never a miscommunication - You can't explain that. To Christians the brain is like the appendix. It has no apparent use and when it flares up it is best to get it removed as soon as possible, everlasting life is as stake.

Is it just me or doesn't the guy on the receipt look more like Mohammed?

How delighted they are that they had an "unexplainable" miracle happen. Aren't they special? The power of God is strong at Walmart. The guy claims he wants to know how it happened, but I am sure he is confident no one will step up to investigate because well what would be the point? He would deny whatever was found.

Ignorance is bliss. They have made up their mind, they don't want to be confused with the facts.

Proof God Does Not Exist Theodicy Argument

TGBaker on the Rational Readers Squad website has put together a logic proof for the non-existence of God. It is really good.

1) There is a possible world of only well-being (p).

2) A capable limitless good being (x) knowing of this world (p) would actualize (necessarily) it over possible worlds with evil and suffering (q).

3)x necessarily would not allow q

4)p-->; not q

5) It is possible that god is x

6)q -->; not p

7) Our world=q therefore not p

8)not p

9)not p--->;not x

10)not x

11)god= not x

Proof For Allah - Snowflakes

Muslims make as much sense as Christians.

Bill O'Reilly Pwns Athiests

A great comment on youtube

O'Reilly's viewers go up, the national IQ goes down.

Never a miscommunication.

At 2:34 on the video below continues the story. "Bill you are like Thomas Aquinas in that your thinking is also from the 13th century".

Why We Believe In Gods

Entertaining and revealing.

Morality is doing what is right, regardless what we are told.

Religious dogma is doing what we are told, no matter what is right.

God Has No Free Will

Assumptions:

• There is a God who is a personal being and all knowing.
• Humans are personal beings but are limited in our knowledge
• Personal beings have free will

In order to have free will, you must have more than one option, each of which is avoidable. This means that before you make a choice, there must be a state of uncertainty before the decision is final.

A being who knows everything can have no "state of uncertainty". There are no options to weigh. It knows in advance what it will do for all eternity. Since it has no choice it has no free will.

Since a being that lacks free will is not a personal being, a personal being who knows everything cannot exist.

So, we can now logically conclude that omniscience, and free will, are completely incompatible.

To refine the argument :

1. God is defined as a personal being who knows everything.
2. Personal beings have free will.
3. In order to have free will, you must have more than one option, each of which is avoidable. This means that before you make a choice, there must be a state of uncertainty during a period of potential: you cannot know the future. Even if you think you can predict your decision, if you claim to have free will, you must admit the potential (if not the desire) to change your mind before the decision is final.
4. A being who knows everything can have no "state of uncertainty". It knows its choices in advance.
5. A being that knows its choices in advance has no potential to avoid its choices, and therefore lacks free will.
6. Since a being that lacks free will is not a personal being, a personal being who knows everything cannot exist.
7. Therefore, a personal God does not exist.
