    Atheism vs Theism

    If an atheist becomes more like Orthodox Christian (atheist becomes closer to Orthodox Christianity), then he becomes closer to any religion, e.g. pantheism, Islam, Catholicism, antropotheism, deism. Proof: Atheism is infinitely remote from any religion. Thus, the Pascal Wager has perfect...

    Definitions of atheism. Can atheism be scientifically defined?

    "Love your God with all your heart and mind" (Jesus Christ). Fortaste of what is comming: "Do not give what is holy to the dogs; nor cast your pearls before swine, lest they trample them under their feet, and turn and tear you in pieces." Matthew 7:6 NKJV "Therefore go and make disciples...

    For atheists, imagine you have been transported back in time...

    I'm posting this here because I've forgotten how to post in the atheist DIR. For those who identify as atheist, imagine you have been transported back in time to convince Genghis Khan that rape is wrong using words only. What do you say to him to convince him from an atheist perspective? And go!

    In Your Path/Walk in Life Do you.......

    Question for anyone who wants to answer. In your path, religion, lack of religion, walk, etc. do you: Spend time fact checking the reasons why you believe in some things and why you reject other things? Use a systematic approach to determine if what you beleif or hold by is realistic? Perform...

    At last, Raven Paradox is solved!

    INTRODUCTION MY CONTRIBUTION The author of the paradox calls the sentence "All Ravens are black" as a hypothesis. However, we must call it as a part of the definition of the raven; namely, the raven is defined by form, by size, by actions, by sound, and by color. All key characteristics must...

    What is your top-notch argument for the existence of God?

    Varying theologies and religions have diverse concepts of a God. As a theist, what would be your number one argument for the existence of God? Of course the response to this would naturally beg for a definition of what you think God is. Is he a transcended God, is he a man, is he a pantheistic...

    Are Atheism and Morality Incompatible?

    It seems obvious to me that atheists can be (and many are) moral, are good parents, are helpful and cooperative contributors to their society, etc. Some religious people however seem to feel or believe that morality consists principally in following the "will" or dictates of one or more...

    Secular Humanism and Samkhya

    I have been reading and trying to understand the (to me, extremely valid) viewpoints of those that profess to follow the path of secular humanism - pardon me if I inadvertently omit some names but @It Aint Necessarily So and @SkepticThinker as well as perhaps @TagliatelliMonster and...

    Is God proven in Theism, for there is dogma of His Existence?

    To prove something means to demonstrate, that the God agrees with you, as the knowledge of a human is the knowledge, which holds his God. The God of Knowledge. To prove God to God is easy; and so, from the fact that God is proven for theists, and for atheists the God is not debunked, it follows...

    Neither a Theist nor an Atheist Be?

    I stumbled across this statement whilst puttering around teh interwebz. "There is, however, no "not atheist nor theist". Anyone who actively believes there is a god is a theist. Anyone who does not (even if they consider the question "unknowable" or the like), is an atheist. There is not any...

    The Great Architect of the Universe

    Many, by observing nature, see it as extremely complex and orderly. And they use the analogy, that since we do not know of anything in the world that looks designed but isn't designed, then there must be a design behind creation. Also we know that in the real world " nothing comes from nothing"...

    The Main Issues w/ the Kalam Cosmological Argument

    Hello! This is my first post on the forums, and I hope it'll be a good one. For those of you who do not know what the Kalam Cosmological Argument (or the KCA for short) is, here's the argument in its entirety used by theists. 1. Whatever begins to exist has a cause 2. The universe began to...

    What evidence would convince a theist that God doesn't exist?

    There are debates on Gods existence. I believe that a lot of these debates commit the burden of proof fallacy. For example, when a theist opens the debate by saying "I believe God exists, unless you prove he doesn't" and to be fair when an atheist opens by saying "I dont believe God exists...

    To know God/Truth: Both Atheism and Theism seem limited

    When asked about God: Theists claim "I believe in God" Atheist claim "I lack believe in God" Sages remain "Silent" Fact is that Theists don't know about God, else they would have claimed "I know that God exists" ** Fact is that Atheists don't know about God, else they would have claimed "I know...

    Is atheism a belief?

    Atheism could be defined as: A person who disbelieves or lacks belief in the existence of God or gods. Another way of phrasing it could be one who believes there is no God or gods. I’m good with either definition but not everyone is. Maybe I shouldn’t be either. What is the best definition...

    Questions no one can answer

    I believe in God but sometimes I ask myself these questions: 1. Why is there a God who created everything? Why is there no God and therefore nothing? 2. Why is God good and just and not bad and unjust? 3. Can God the Almighty "destroy" Himself? If not, is he almighty at all? Can God the...

    Why should someone believe?

    I am an atheist. I don't believe in a god. I never really have, since I grew up in a nation where religion has very little power and my family never encouraged any sort of religion in my upbringing. I haven't had a real conversation about beliefs with religious people before and I'd like to...
