Atheism people have a belief "God does not exist "

[Trailblazer]

Why would I believe anything without evidence??

There is evidence but there is no proof.
God would be unjust to expect people to believe with no evidence.
Atheists just do not LIKE the evidence that God provides.
It's that simple.

 

[Trailblazer]

No. Atheists have not been presented with sufficient evidence to believe that any god does exist. It leaves the door open to the possibility that someday someone might actually be able to present verifiable evidence for the claim. Just that without such evidence there is no good reason to believe that the claim is true.

The evidence God provides is insufficient for atheists, but it is sufficient for beleivers... Why is that?

Maybe that would be an interesting subject for a new thread. On that thread one might ask why the existence of God should be verifiable. Why does God owe us that?

We don't like it, for a variety of reasons. Principally because it's not actual, unbiased evidence.

In other words? For this "evidence" to actually BE "evidence" one has to have faith... first.

And once you have faith-- you can literally believe in anything at all, regardless...

Therefore? You don't actually have evidence.

Because believers believe first. And once they take that step? They really don't need actual "evidence"...

Atheists tend to be rational thinkers, theists . . . not so much.

Does the fact they believe denote faith in nature and science?

No, that is very poor quality evidence. Reliable evidence does not require faith. It can be tested again and again.

No.

I believe The Fall are the best group ever. I have some evidence to back up that claim.

I'm not sure what you mean since your answer is not at all in line with the quote.

It was a question...I was trying to paraphrase what you said to see if I'd understood your meaning. Assuming I haven't, maybe you could explain what you meant?

 

[Guy Threepwood]

You do not know what I believe.
Only I know what I believe.
Why would I believe anything without evidence??
The lack of evidence is why I do not accept many things; gods, leprechauns, fairies, Loch Ness Monster, Yetis, etc.

Sad to see that you still do not understand the rather simple concept of evidence.

 

[lewisnotmiller]

Whatever the stance they have whether it is 'Agnostic Atheism' or 'Gnostic Atheism' or any point in between them, it remains a belief in relation to "God doesn't exist" (and or "God exists"), none of them make science. Right, please?

Which God?

If it helps clarify my position, I don't believe a Muslim God exists.

Never met a philosopher who is a true atheist thou

Really? I am pretty sure that there are quite a few. You may have the wrong definition of a "true atheist".

 

[QuestioningMind]

What you call evidence I have no name for because it is nothing.

Really? And how the heck would you know that, in that I have not indicated what I consider to be evidence?

And again, why would you believe in ANYTHING without verifiable evidence that it is true?

 

[Shushersbedamned]

If only you believe, then the evidence doesn't matter?

I mean the human mind cannot recognize order in which things happen - does rational thoughts about god come before emotion? No.

Well do correct me please and give examples.

 

[Subduction Zone]

Well do correct me please and give examples.

First tell me what you think a "true atheist" is.

As I said, your definition appears to be incorrect. I probably could show you examples, but if your definition is wrong then you will simply deny that they are atheists.

 

[Shushersbedamned]

It's the way the human mind works.

It does not matter what you call evidence. I say it is not necessarily real no matter how it fits your perception of reality.
