johnydon22:No sir! The burden of proof lies on you. The belief in God had always been. Now you come to tell us God does not exist and you just wants us to believe you just like that? Prove it logically and persuasively if you want us to believe you. 1 Like |

johnydon22:Okay! I get your question @davien , I know satan is evil because he condones evil and rebellion, while God hates and detests evil and doesn't deal with it lightly. |

You say their is a god, i say prove it.. You see? Now dont turn the side of the coin here, be a good person and prove to me their is a god.

Misogynist2014:So why does someone(specifically an omnipotent "god" ) who hates evil permit the occurence of evil?(under the notion of its alleged omnipotence) |
Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by Misogynist2014(m): 6:48pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
johnydon22:The Holy Bible of course or you're talking of another book? Cos I think this argument should be limited to Bible. |
Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by MightyMuna(m): 6:49pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
johnydon22: Dude, you're on fire. Also, it's always baffling how religious people are unreasonable and are not receptive to logic |
Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by johnydon22(m): 6:59pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
Misogynist2014: why should it be limited to the bible.. their are thousands of other God concepts and other religious books... Ok so your strong convictions is from the bible... wooooow makes perfect sense... Now why do you believe the bible god and not other god like the muslim allah, hindhu krishna and many more...? |

davien:OH, I get your point, yes God is all powerful, but like you said, He 'permits' evil because He has given to all freewill. Those that pass His test would be called Sons of God. Also, God created evil, yes He did! For if a man creates light, he has automaticaly created darkness (light in its zero state) If you create joy, you automatically produce sadness. So did the LORD God create evil because He made good. |

johnydon22:Maybe you can ask justfollowit as regard to allah, but our discussion is based on lucifer and YHWH or there is nothing worth discussing. |
Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by johnydon22(m): 7:11pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
Misogynist2014: He created evil then hates evil. how could he hate what he created i thought he was a perfect being? He created the devil the master of evil, instead of just destroying the devil and be done away with.. but wait he is omniscient which means he already knew the devil will turn evil yet he created it..lmao talk about free will. Woooooow this your god makes perfect sense And adults even believe this fairy tale? 3 Likes |
Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by davien(m): 7:13pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
Misogynist2014:So since "god" abides to maintain man's freewill(which includes evil), then why is man punished for carrying out the designed purpose? And since you've already established that "evil" is a byproduct of good by your analohy of light and darkness.....then is "god" good?...shouldn't the byproduct of omnibenevolence be omni-malevolence? |
Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by johnydon22(m): 7:13pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
Misogynist2014: the question was "god" and devil when did the word god become exclusive to yhwh.. as far as we know that word god is a distinction they all share. be it krishna, horus, yhwh, mithras, zeus |

Humblebloke:Right,Theist are accurate thinkers but you couldn't accurately think the fact that science deals with hypothesis to deduct fact and religion is the belief system based on blind faith with no single proof or relevance to why you been giving religion.... I feel I just grew an inch in knowledge to have written to you what you never knew...so who thinks more accurately now? 2 Likes |

Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by 5minsmadness: 7:25pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
johnydon22:but that's not what this thread is about, is it? This thread is about atheists having blind faith in non-godism and science, even when science is wrong. N.B . . i'm not a fan of evolution, more studies are being carried out on it and it still requires a lot of work and experiment but at least read something before asking questions.. oh, but according to science, humanity has been around for a few million years already. We should have evolved into something else by now as a means of sheer necessity shouldn't we? of course you'd have reservations about evolution. Too many holes to be punched into. BUT it is a main scientific milestone. so if scientists can be wrong about evolution and even carbon dating, is it possible they can be wrong about the existence of GOD as well? |

jes7:Why is it so hard for you to understand? Yea, the belief in God has always been, and now we are saying we don't believe that because there is no proof, you who believe in him is the one with the responsibility to prove to us that he is, so that we can also believe. How does the burden lie with us? 1 Like |

5minsmadness: This clearly shows you don't know anything about scienceā¦ those humanoids in existence millions of years ago are the species that evolved until it gets to modern man. Example is the humanoid australopecine gave rise to adipethecus.. bros i suggest you first read about evolution stop disgracing yourself here ... |

Re: I Dont Have Enough Faith To Be An Atheist by 5minsmadness: 7:31pm On Mar 19, 2015 |
johnydon22: No, the correct thing is "If there was no GOd there wouldnt be atheists. we have had this argument before. show me a single quote in your atheism library against Zeus and I will show you a thousand against God almighty. you know within yourself that this fight is against the almighty, despite the fact you keep trying to show that atheism is anti-all-gods. |

johnydon22: oh, sorry, silly me. can you please tell me how long it took for australopecine (the correct term by the way is Australopithecus) to give rise to adipethecus?( correct spelling ardipithecus), humble me with an answer pls. pls note that the above species of hominines are now under debate as to whether they are part of the humaniod evolutionary tree, but i guess thats just me talking. or lemme wait so you can ask google, you who know so much about science sir. |

Atheist do not believe in any god and it is not a belief system..How is that so difficult to understand? Ok..I'll make it clear for you..Is a child born with a belief system inherent or is it taught?? Hope you get it now..You were taught to believe whatever myth you consider sacred. Atheism is NOT a belief system! Has evolution stopped? the simple answer is NO! Evolution is a very very slow process that occurs way beyond the time span of your imagination (say 100 years) Do you think a million years from now the world as you know it would be the same as it is now? and if the question was an attempt to discredit evolution, read your bible again about your jewish god creating the world in 7 days (oops 6 days)...Let there be light in the first day, then created the sun in the third lol...destroyed the earth, killed his creations except some that he asked his servant Noah to fit in an ark...let's pretend the ark had coolers for penguins and polar bears...Oh and after the great flood what did Noah do? He made sacrifices unto god lol with endangered animals left in the ark...Common!! Read your book from beginning to end and come back to speak.. Even the pope has admitted that god doesn't have a magic wand...I won't respond if you do not have meaningful things to say...I don't have answers for your earlier questions but don't act like the bible explains anything. If it does, provide them...Just because life and nature is complex does not mean bible stories explain anything...NB: If by now you still think man is made from dust and woman from a man's rib PLEASE don't bother responding 5minsmadness: 1 Like |
