It's not tautology and I already showed u... You are only repeating arguments because you don't know where to go from there...
I believe Messi is better than Ronaldo is different from I don't believe Ronaldo is better than Messi.... So when a theist says I believe there is god, I simply say I DON'T BELIEVE there is god...
If u or any of your friends can equate both these statements to mean the same thing, logically, then no problem

U r d one raping logic here.

Ok answer these 2 questions in true or false.
And if ur answers are different,
It shows your logic is correct

If your answers are identical, U r wrong obviously.

Question 1:

Random believes Messi is not better than Ronaldo?
True/FALSE

Question 2:
Random doesnt believe Messi is better than Ronaldo?
True/false

until there is ample proof or evidence of the existence of God

So what kind of evidence are you expecting that proves the existence of God .

The origin of time by whom. Is that book used in universities?

Must it be used by universities?

Besides, the fact u havent heard of that book speaks volumes though.

Physicist Alexander Vilenkin said

It is said that an argument is what convinces reasonable men and a proof is what it takes to convince even an unreasonable man. With the proof now in place, cosmologists can no longer hide behind the possibility of a past-eternal universe. There is no escape, they have to face the problem of a cosmic beginning .

Even Stephen Hawking admitted that the laws of science seemed to predict the universe had a beginning, they also seemed to predict that they could not determine how the universe would have begun.

Read Stephen Hawking article on the beginning of time here : http://www.hawking.org.uk/the-beginning-of-time.html

If you begin to slowly move backwards in time, you'd get to a point where space and time break down, this point - a singularly is where everything as we know today is crunched closely together. This point of singularity is just there, the most fundamental form of our existence and it just is, no one knows why the singularity was there.

Now the universe as we know now is a product of that singularity, as it rapidly expanded into space-time and all matter contained in it. So technically space-time began, but the universe itself just is.

The amount of usable energy in the universe is decreasing. A finite amount of energy couldn't have brought the universe through an eternity of time. Therefore the universe is not eternal.

Why do you feel so?

The universe expanded from a certain point, I agree. But you have to show that the universe began to exist at point. Simple

Is this a mistake?? U are comparing two opposite statements?? I don't believe u don't understand this....
Lemme explain again
1. I believe Messi is better than Ronaldo... This is a claim that Messi is better than Ronaldo-
2. I believe Ronaldo is better than Messi... Again a claim that Ronaldo is better than Messi.
3. I don't believe Ronaldo is better than Messi... Now there are different possibilities in this statement..
i. Messi is better than Ronaldo
ii. Ronaldo is equal to Messi
iii. Am not persuaded that Ronaldo is better than Messi, therefore I don't believe he is... These three bolded positions are entirely consistent with the no.3 statements... Can u show otherwise??

Both atheists and agnostics ask for proof... The only reason there are atheists in the first place is because there is no proof. For example, if I say the world is flat, it can be shown that the world is flat beyond reasonable doubt, but when u say there is god...

"God does not exist"
Are opposite statements to each other.

Dont veer into agnostics please.

Singularity is not a physical state of affairs it is a mathematical idealization and it is not eternal , it has an origin , so I don't get your point .

You can't ask for proof for the existence of God if you are an atheist . Atheism is all about the non existence of God . Theists say there is God , atheists say there is no God

You cannot isolate the the emergence of space and time from the existence of a singularity.

If space-time begun, then there was a singularity. And with this singularity being essentially the universe in a quatum scale
, it's emergence is unaccountable, therefore the singularity (quantum universe) always was. cool

The universe began to exist! The amount of energy in it is finite, and so for the singularity(whatever that is) to be there eternally is impossible. It would have used up the finite amount of energy a long time ago, thus preventing the universe from existing.

Moreover, where was the singularity since all the space we know today came from it?

The singularity has an origin that means you have no point wink

You can read Hawking's origin of the universe , Hawking admitted the universe had a beginning ; he also admitted that atheists have made so many attempts to preclude a universe with a beginning

Well there are top 5 Arguments I think

1.Cosmological Argument

2. Moral Argument

3. Teleological Argument

4. Ontological argument

5. Leibeinz Contingency Argument

No atheist have been able to refute these arguments . These make theism very logical .
