What all atheists have in common: when a theist says "a god exists", all atheists
say "I don't believe you when you say 'a god exists'".

definition:
theist - any person who thinks 'a god exists'.
atheist - any person not a theist.

Most atheists do not say 'no god exists' but usually 'no one knows'. And maybe
some as yet unheard from god exists in some far away corner of the universe.
--
There is no verifiable evidence of any god(s). None whatsoever.
Extortion (Believe or Burn) is *THE* foundation of Christianity.

Huh? Your premise to conclusion is badly flawed, nonsensical.

Anyway, for several reasons, mostly I'd like all atheists to know they are not alone, that
probably 25% of Americans are atheist, and secondly because Christians intend to
force Christianity on everyone (as they always have from the very beginning of Christianity).

If Christians would keep their religious nonsense to themselves then there would be no problem.

About 50% of all Americans are women. I can recognise that without expounding
that semen is *THE* foundation of maleness and therefore I must insult men.

Jehovah Witnesses are christians and they have been fighting established
religion a lot more than you. Your religious bigotry drives away potential
allies. Hatred makes you stupid.

Only SOME of the Christians want to use the government to force
religion on the rest of us, but their is a metric buttload of them,
they are very loud, and they are often organized. Depending on
where you live, they can be a majority. Even weak believers or
those who are only "culturally" Catholic or Baptist or whatever
may go along with nonsense such as organized prayer in the public
schools, 10 Commandments monuments on government property, etc.
There's a lot of "I don't believe in that myself, but I don't
mind it because...mumble...general morality...fumble...can we
talk about something else, please?" squishiness on separation
of church and state. People from sects that have been discriminated
against care, and ex-members of religions care about keeping them
separate, but a lot of people don't mind. The issue isn't salient
for them, even if they would agree with the principle if polled.

No, dickhead, it's not just a mere "SOME", virtually ALL Christians want laws; even

Here's info showing tithing isn't that common in the US:

https://www.aol.com/article/finance/2015/04/03/do-only-rich-folks-tithe/21159958/

Some Christian denominations never put the emphasis on tithing
others did, notably Roman Catholics. Tithing was an Old Testament
requirement on the Jews. The various Christian sects, while definitely
encouraging charitable giving, including to the church, have various
positions on the tithing issue.

What's with insults based on old-fashioned gender stereotypes?
If one has a vagina, one is fearful and weak? Nonsense.

If I were such a "Mama's boy" I wouldn't have angered her years
ago by leaving her church. I did still love my mother, I just
disagreed with her.

Of course, dickhead; I showed 1,000,000 Christians a list of Bible-based U.S.
laws and asked them if they wanted all those laws eliminated and 100% said they
wanted to keep at least some of the laws.

No, dickhead, an opinion article url means nothing; it's just another opinion.
The point is that virtually 100% of all Christians support having religion based
laws that everyone must follow and tithing by the otherwise low-profile Christian
is just one way they support their more active fellow Christian's intrusion on our
freedom to not be Christian, you retarded libertarian. Got it?, tithing is not the
issue, and your "rebuttal" that "only SOME" Christians want the laws is not
thought-out, you milque-toast pussified say-nothing time-waster and/or apparent idiot.

Unless you believe gods do not exist, why do you care what
Christians believe?
Because they constantly try to force their beliefs onto others.
What sort of "force" do they use on you?
They try to pass laws.
If you favor single-payer health care, repealing the 2nd amendment, sanctuary cities and anything that Rachel Maddow says then you're trying to force your beliefs on others.

No difference.

So stop doing it.

Actually you're giving lie to your claim that you merely don't believe gods
exists when in fact you belief gods don't exist. As the nonhypocrites around you
will point out, those are two different statements.

If you don't believe gods exist, either you would have no interest whether
others believe they do exists because it's a sujet in which you have no
investment, or you're fascist mindraper who needs to control the thoughts of
other people.

Since you are concerned with what christians believe, that actually means you
are invested in the question and so you believe no gods exists.

Or you're a fascist mindraper.


Anywise you have stated elsewhen already stated not that you believe no gods
exists but that it is a fact that no gods exist.

So, yeah, liar, liar, pants on fire.

It isn't proof it was "created" by some intelligent force: a "creator."

In popular parlance "begging the question."

Again, calling existence "creation" assumes the existence
of a creator, at some point.

What it doesn't do is assume that any such creator is in
existence today. Such a creator could have exhausted itself
in the act of creation and died, or have been destroyed by
one of its creations, the way the norse ghods treated ymir:

Creation of all things in existence 13.8 billion years ago. No other reason is
possible but God at work.
Assertions without evidence can be dismissed pro forma. No proof
the universe was created.
Continuous expansion reveals it started 13.8 billion years ago.
That's proof it had a beginning.
It isn't proof it was "created" by some intelligent force: a "creator."
It means that something had to create it.
Post by Kevrob
Some people consider this universe to have no beginning. I'm not
one of them. There could have been a state of existence prior to the
big bang, though how we'd figure out what that was could be an
insoluble problem.
Well, when you figure it out, let me know. You push a "beginning with no
beginning" and then barf at the concept of "God did it".
He didn't barf; he gave a plausible answer, something like "We don't know" and "a god is not required".
Your reasoning "Anything complex must have had a creator." is invalid unless you resort
to the "Special Pleading" fallacy of just arbitrarily declaring "My ultra-complex
god is exempt from the premise".

No, dickhead, it's Special Pleading. "Creating" is in addition to just "existing".
Duke said "Creation of all things in existence" which requires an exception for
his god, and "God did it" means alleged god does something besides existing.

No, dickhead, it's Special Pleading. "Creating" is in addition to just "existing".
Duke said "Creation of all things in existence" which requires an exception for
his god, and "God did it" means alleged god does something besides existing.
He uses that, o fatuous pottymouth, but in other cases.

I was referring ONLY to the use of the term "creator" before one
has shown that the universe was, in fact, created.

The existence of the universe does not necessarily imply a creator.

Calling the universe "creation" or beings such as humans or animals
"creatures" does assume a creator, just by the vocabulary. That's
a cheap debating trick. (I know. I used to be a cheap debater.)

A universe that has always existed (the old steady-state theory)
doesn't require a creator. If a ghod existed "before time" why
couldn't matter independent of a ghod do so? Hence, the Big Bang
w/o a ghod is at least as plausible as a theistic explanation. It's
simpler, too. Good luck explaining where that "creator ghod" came from.
The universe as an emergent phenomenon makes at least as much sense as
a "created universe," more, since one doesn't have to grapple with
theodicy.* Occam's razor favors the non-created universe.

Earl doesn't give us anything but assertion to backstop his "ghod
the creator" daydream.

Actually there are no atheists. No one can produce evidence for there being NO
God. All you can do is find evidence for God unconvincing.

You're too stupid to accept that we don't and won't believe as you do, oh
twenty year failure in alt.atheism. You sound so desperate to convert someone,
anyone. Even that lady at your church had already decided on her own to go back to being RC. You didn't even convert her. Did you threaten her with non-existent hellfire, too?

Most atheists do not say 'no god exists' but usually 'no one knows'. And maybe
some as yet unheard from god exists in some far away corner of the universe.

You really hate knowing that you have no evidence that your 'God' exists.
That faith and your Bible are not acceptable evidence. And, without your
'God', there can be no Jesus. So, you really can't even be a Christian.

My reason: There would not be a being so powerful that can create even our moon, let alone millions of huge planets. THERE IS NO SUCH POSSIBILITY, if one uses his brain to think!

Which they routinely lie that we do.

The most common reason they get called liars, is for the personal lies
they use as ad hominems.

Or for insisting that our perspective isn't what we've taken the time
and trouble to explain - which implicitly accuses _us_ of lying about
ourselves.

For some reason, even otherwise sensible theists imagine they get to
tell us what our POV "really" is, after we've corrected them.

An atheist either lacks belief in the existence of a god or gods or
does not believe that a god or gods exist. That's the difference
between a weak or strong atheist.
Which is purely academic, because even the strong one is simply how
they respond to theists.

But every time any of this is explained, you need to point out that
the very word "God" doesn't even mean the same thing outside the
theist's religion (where atheists are) as inside it (where theists
are).

The late Cliff Walker wrote...

http://www.positiveatheism.org/mail/eml9161.htm

[unfortunately that site is now down, but it is accessible via the
Internet archive]

Here is the Merriam Webster's definition for the word God:

the Being perfect in power, wisdom, and goodness who is worshipped
as creator and ruler of the universe

Encarta World Dictionary (print edition) defines the same word as
follows:

the being believed in monotheistic religions such as Judaism,
Islam, and Christianity to be the all-powerful all-knowing creator
of the universe, worshiped as the only god

The Oxford American Dictionary defines it this way:

the creator and ruler of the universe in Christian, Jewish, and
Muslim teaching

Were I to use your [the person to whom he was responding]
understanding of the role that dictionaries play
in determining word meaning, and were I to rely solely upon the
Merriam Webster's, I'd be in big trouble, because this dictionary
expresses its definition as fact, rather than reporting it as the
opinion of some people. I'd have to believe that a "God" exists
because the dictionary does not qualify its definition as the
opinion of some but not all people.

The other dictionaries are more responsible than this, the second
reporting that this description is "believed" by certain groups, and
the third that this is according to the "teaching" of certain
groups. So, as a man who is proficient in the English language, I
would reject the first definition as patently biased, and would
accept the second and third as being accurate reports of how people
use this word.

[Me again...]

In other words, it is only seen as real inside those religions, and
outside them it is merely something they believe.

But most theists can't get their minds around this.

Merriam Webster's changes its tune when it comes to defining the
word astrology:

the divination of supposed influences of the stars and planets on
human affairs and terrestrial events by their positions

Ah! The "supposed" influences of the stars and planets, not the
actual influence of the stars and planets! So we see that MW is at
least capable of showing that something is an opinion and doesn't
accept every controversial claim as fact. This is clearly a
double-standard, typical of somebody with an agenda (such as
propagating the Christian faith)..

Encarta says this:

the study of the positions of the Moon, Sun, and other planets in
the belief that their motions affect human beings

And Oxford American says this:

the study of the supposed influence of stars on human affairs

So here we have complete agreement between the three reference works
that astrology is a belief or an allegation made by some people.None
of the three presuppose that astrology is based in fact. This makes
sense, seeing as how the astrology movement has never seen fit to
organize for the purpose of gaining widespread political control
over entire continents of nations, and thus has never become so
intoxicated with power that it would dare to think it could get away
with doing what Merriam Webster's has done with the word God.

[Me again...]

In other words the meaning of the word "God" is different inside and
outside Christianity. There's an extra layer that changes it - it's
like the difference between saying James Bond is a British secret
agent, and that he is a British secret agent in a series of novels and
movies. The former is universal and the latter restricts it to a
specific domain of discourse.

But try getting theists to understand this. Very few can.

I was recently told I was deranged on uk,railway after I and others
objected to theists telling us what our position "really" was after
they had been repeatedly corrected.

They don't seem to understand just how arrogantly nasty it is, to
dispute what ex explain our position is after they got it wrong
Post by hypatiab7
A religious agnostic can believe that a god exists but doesn't know for certain.
Which makes all theists agnostics they don't actually know,but they
think they do.
Post by hypatiab7
An atheistic agnostic can believe that no god or gods exist but not
know for certain.
To do that, they would have to be at least part way inside the
theist's religious paradigm.

Most atheists aren't.
Post by hypatiab7
Due to lack of evidence, an atheist knows there is
no god of any kind.
Which is the falsifiable default when theists make their ridiculous
claims - and it is reinforced every time they cop out of backing them
up, resort to ad hominems, offer transparent fallacies, etc.

Every one of these is a data point against.

So far, it is gajillions against and none for.

Most atheists do not say 'no god exists' but usually 'no one knows'.
Most atheists don't even give it a thought - but what they say depends
on how the theist brings it up.

But in any case, it's no different than "there ain't no Santa Claus",
"no UFO abductions", "no Loch Ness Monster", etc.

Again, try getting theists to understand this.

belief, as something which could or could not exist. It never reaches
that level.

Of course, if a theist makes claims that reduce it to zero, then it
cannot exist. Eg a god which cause a global flood higher than the
tallest mountains, is a zero, regardless of its other claimed
attributes.

My reason: There would not be a being so powerful that can create
even our moon, let alone millions of huge planets. THERE IS NO
SUCH POSSIBILITY, if one uses his brain to think!
Why even give it a thought?

That grants it too much credibility.
Post by hypatiab7
Why not? Who knows how advanced scientifically some cultures are? But, being
able to move moons and planets still wouldn't make them gods.

And the joke is, the god for the theists will answer their prayers.....then we won't see all the human suffering, would we?
What?

What all atheists have in common: when a theist says "a god exists", all atheists
say "I don't believe you when you say 'a god exists'".
   theist - any person who thinks 'a god exists'.
   atheist - any person not a theist.
Most atheists do not say 'no god exists' but usually 'no one knows'. 
And maybe
some as yet unheard from god exists in some far away corner of the universe.
They would be an agnostic.... Which is someone that can neither prove
nor disprove that a Gog exists and so they just live life until proof
one way or the other can be shown.

The Atheist believe with no proof that God does NOT exist. I also
notice that a lot of Atheists believe that gays are real without any
proof of that (Odd they need proof God is real but NOT gays?). They
don't seem to need fact to prove that gays are NOT just heterosexuals
that are mentally ill they accept that on faith.

Maybe one day you'll stop lying about that.

Let me rephrase that for you, to illustrate you dishonesty :

"BeamMeUpScotty believe with no proof that Zeus does NOT exist."

That's why Atheism is a belief...

Agnostics are willing to wait for one side or the other to prove their
belief. Atheists believe God can NOT exist and that is a positive belief
NOT a negative. Neither side of the coin is more plausible. Each side
would have to prove the other to NOT be true by proving their belief is

Crap. There's no such thing as athe"ism": there is no belief system
and there is no doctrine, just a common opinion.

Again, I define the terms for you:
Theist: one who accepts the god hypothesis;
Atheist: one who rejects the god hgypothesis;
Agnostic: one who does neither.

All else is waffle.

Tell us about Taoism.... is that a religion that believes in a God?

Is it an Atheist religion that believes that God can't exist?

Is it a common belief that no god exists as with other religions and
other atheists.

Just as Theism has religions so does Atheism.

NOT all Theists believe in the same God or belong to a specific
religion, why would all Atheists belong to the same religion or to any
specific religion or god?

And if one is a religion then why NOT the other?

Accepting and rejecting is still all about God.

It's all belief.

The only one that is NOT a religion is the one that does neither,
Agnosticism. It has no opinion of God or of the relevance.

If there is or is NOT a god I would still live the same life. Why would
I do anything less?

They never answer that.

There are two kinds of mental deviants who push the idea that atheists
are actually believers :

1- some agnostics, who think they have the superior argument : "Hey!
Don't know!"

2- theists who want to justify their insane beliefs by saying that
unbelievers are actual believers, so that it's OK for them to believe in
their own crapola.

Those two defective approaches are manifestations of intellectual
dishonesty.

No, all that is required to be an atheist is to not believe.
No categorical rejection of the the idea of ghod or ghodz is
required.

In my case that would be "nobody has proved their are any
intelligent beings but human beings, as of yet."

I consider it possible there is, was or someday might be intelligent
life elsewhere in the universe. That will require evidence we don't
yet have, or may never get.

Neither side of the coin is more plausible.
The "universe without supernatural entities" side of the coin
is enormously more plausible. We are walking around in one,
as far as we know. The evidence for the model with the supernatural
is pathetically weak.
Post by #BeamMeUpScotty
Each side would have to prove the other to NOT be true by
proving their belief is true.
The naturalistic explanation doesn't require more evidence than we
already have. The supernatural one require much more. Then,
WHICH supernatural explanation, of the many.

Actually, karma is woo-woo based on actions and deeds, not belief.

Another religious stubborn mind telling me I can not be
an Atheist.
Atheism is not a Religion or a matter of belief, not even
a matter of choice. Religious people often think atheism
mirrors belief: you can have strong faith , you could even
have a crisis of faith or a more or less strict adherence to
scripture, tradition or dogma in religion, so to you it is just
like that in atheism. But the sheer absence of a belief in
any god does not constitute a new inverted church,
it is just that, plain and simple.
My favorite example is the old belief combustion needs a
discreet substance, phlogiston, to happen. It explained
some properties of fire but not all, but people bought it
because it was the usual or only explanation for the
phenomenon. Today we have better explanations,
and even without studying Chemistry we know
Phlogiston is an outdated concept with no explanatory
power. It is an obsolete concept of only historical interest.
My position towards gods is exactly like my position
towards Phlogiston.
If there where a lot of people still explaining fire with
phlogiston, I would call myself Aphlogistonian or Oxygenian.
There are not and I dont. But in the case of that god concept
you are peddling I must take a stand and say " I can and will
do without it, it is obsolete and explains nothing. " The common
word for this and other ways of not giving a fuck about any
god is atheism.

Ed, third generation atheist.

Someone said in complete darkness the blind may make
the best leaders, but now there is some light and we
better belief our eyes.
