    The Folly of Atheism

    Precisely my point. If you had been familiar with any other sacred text and believed in it you would have quoted that text to me pretending to know what God wants or needs no matter which text, The Bible, The Quran, the Book of Mormon or whatever. This is the reason why we logical and rational...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Wasn't William Sears a Baha'i? Isn't Gary L. Matthews a Baha'i? You must have misunderstood. I'll read them, but I am not looking for Baha'i propaganda written by biased people, I'm looking for something written by somebody who actually objectively can confirm what these books say. You wouldn't...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Oh. Then you aren't actually talking about atheists in general but just the subgroup called strong atheists. "Negative atheism, also called weak atheism and soft atheism, is any type of atheism where a person does not believe in the existence of any deities but does not explicitly assert that...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Interesting. There are almost 8 billion people in the world. Imagine simply removing all theists from the planet how many different categories would you have left? For example, there are up to 500 million Buddhists and they don't believe in God... Do Buddhist believe in god? How do you...

    The Folly of Atheism

    Trailblazer, let's make a thought experiment. Let's pretend that you've never heard about this Baha'i religion and this Bahá'u'lláh and I asked you about God. Which religion and which sacred texts would you quote at me then to tell me what God wants and needs? I am trying to establish whether...

    The Folly of Atheism

    How would you make an informed decision between religions when you haven't studied them? Of course I wouldn't judge the validity of Islam just by reading and believing the Quran. I would read the Quran and all kinds of things written about Islam by believers. I would also watch videos like this...

    Yes it does. Theist: Belief in God (Weak) atheist: Absence of belief in the existence of God, absence of belief in the non-existence of God Strong atheist: Absence of belief in the existence of God, presence of belief in the non-existence of God

    The Folly of Atheism

    Of course not. There may be all kinds of beings besides gods lurking in higher dimensions capable of creating universes. It might even be a parlor game.

    Are you sure? Aren't he the puppet-master and you the puppet? You seem to be dancing as if he's always pulling the strings... correction, seems to be the Catholic Church pulling your strings?

    The Folly of Atheism

    Or maybe creating universes is just part of the curriculum in a university in a higher dimension.

    The Folly of Atheism

    It was just a failed science experiment at a scientific institution in a higher dimension.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Then who is Allah? "Those who believe that Allah has a son must be admonished since this is a monstrous blasphemy and falsehood (18:4-6). Allah has never begotten a son and there are no deities beside him (23:91). Jews say that Ezra is the son of Allah while the Christians say the Messiah is...

    The Folly of Atheism

    It's not your opinions that's the problem, is the spreading of ignorance and misinformation.

    The Folly of Atheism

    There appear to be at least ten attributes one of which is not shared by Allah? 10 Awesome Attributes of God and of course if you are going to make up the greatest god of all what else would you describing him as if not omniscient and omnipotent and omnipresent etc etc? Isn't it amazing that...

    The Folly of Atheism

    To all the other people reading this, do you now understand why some atheists have big problems with Christianity and Christians? It's because of posts like this and people like usfan ruining it for all you other Christians out there.

    The Folly of Atheism

    Not even the Christian God and Allah is the same god. God has a son. Allah doesn't. God is triune, Allah isn't. And on and on. Pick one or the other. Pick Allah and you can forget all about any resurrection. Muslims say that's a lie. No Christ paying for people's sins. What are the differences...

    The Folly of Atheism

    That is a good point. Only those believers who believe stuff based on nothing but personal experiences or "feelings" or "faith" or indoctrination or brainwashing or ancient or modern scriptures or religious "authorities" or upbringing etc should be in that category. Those who have thoroughly...

    The Folly of Atheism

    OK. So what have you done to independently investigate the truth? You do that by using logic, reason, by finding independent and objective evidence backing it up, by independently and objectively corroborating the information, seeing if the information is falsifiable, isn't self-contradictory...

    The Folly of Atheism

    That is probably the difference between a believer and a logical and rational person. A logical and rational person doesn't care if something "rang true". That is completely irrelevant. What matters is if it's logical, rational, makes sense, has a lot of evidence backing it up, can be...
