    The Folly of Atheism

    God is the Creator and Sustainer of the universe (or multiverse) and all that is in it. And, in addition, God is Goodness.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Evil is the absence of goodness, whether (largely) in, say, Auschwitz and the Gulag and the souls of those who built them or (wholly) in Hell. There is a difference between the infinite kindness and mercy of God and the absence of such qualities in a dictator. BTW those in Hell are there...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Who gave us the gift of life ? Is life an "absurd situation" ?

    The Folly of Atheism

    Evil is the work of Satan and the other angels who tried to depose God, but failed. God = Goodness (and Goodness = God, God being the only source of Goodness). The moment that God "took a nap" would be the moment the universe instantly disappeared, like a soap bubble.

    The Folly of Atheism

    So what will happen to you and other atheists if God DOES exist ?

    The Folly of Atheism

    Or disbelieve, if that were so.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Delusional thinking ? The worst example being Atheism.

    The Folly of Atheism

    You are wilfully confusing the universe with a phantasm called "meta-God."

    The Folly of Atheism

    God's existence is explicitly demonstrated by that of the universe.

    The Folly of Atheism

    But as it affects your beliefs on issues such as abortion, that is not strictly the case. And of course, whether one believes in God must affect one's behaviour.

    The Folly of Atheism

    No - not anti-science, but anti-Scientism. Scientism being the idolatrous worship of Science as a false god that has all the answers. And can be vainly appealed to in attempts to disprove traditional Christian beliefs.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Why ? The foetus is as much a human being as she is. Merely less powerful. You argument is only permissible in the (rare) cases of life versus life, where NOT aborting the foetus would DIRECTLY cause the mother's death. No one, of course, has the right to kill another person in order to...

    The Folly of Atheism

    The theory of evolution has nothing whatever to say about religion. No scientific theory does.

    The Folly of Atheism

    No - they are scientifically verified facts. And how is abortion liberal or "progressive" ?? - the murder of unwanted babies is fascist in the highest degree.

    The Folly of Atheism

    SOMETHING must be the First Cause, the starting-point; and thus Uncreated. If not, God - what ?

    The Folly of Atheism

    God's existence is visible - from the universe He created and maintains in being. The invisible dragon's existence isn't.
  17. C

    The Folly of Atheism

    Except for the purposes of real life ! - no one can live a life on the basis of "Maybe" or "Perhaps" unless they are very sheltered. Which is why agnosticism is a belief confined to the comfortable classes of the world's rich nations.

    The Folly of Atheism

    So - if the universe didn't create itself and wasn't created by chance - how come it exists ? Which is, of course, a philosophical question unanswerable by science (still less by those pretending a knowledge of science). To say that a philosophical question is unanswerable is Obscurantism or...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Show how a universe is possible without God; show that it created itself. You can't: therefore: Dismissed.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Truth never impresses atheists.
