OkCornel:Yes indeed. People create figments of the imaginations to justify their acts. |

butterflylion:Then you asked them to be treated one by one, which flies in the face of the proposal in the op. But you wouldn't see that since it does not suit your agenda! 2 Likes |

budaatum: I didn't ask that they be treated one by one. I said you should show me an abridged version of how you went through all of them to arrive at the no god position. |

butterflylion:Of course it's wrong, and contradicts what I said earliar. It's a sarcastic statement made to make a point. It is however similar to you claiming atheists are only atheistic towards Yahweh and Allah but accept the existence of other gods! 1 Like |

budaatum: This thread has long flown over your bird coop. So you have always missed my point despite the pointers I have always given. Nice try but you said nothing. |

Gggg102: The 5000 different gods do not exist for the same reason that the 10,000 magical fairytale creatures do not exist: 1. No hard or direct evidence. 2. Have no physical or tangible attributes 3. Generally believed in by people of lower intelligence 1 Like |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:44pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
budaatum: I did not say they accept I said THEY LEAVE OUT. why do you keep making claims I never did? To what end? |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:47pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
superhumanist: This is an assumption and a sweeping comment. Budaatum do not tell me tomorrow that an atheist did not SPECIFICALLY mention 10000 magical fairytale creatures. How did you SPECIFICALLY go through the 5000 or is your atheism based on a generalisation and not empirically derived? |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 7:47pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion:How I went through them one by one, right? And thereby taking me away from talking about a monotheistic God, as initially requested? But then not just grouping them all together as they are all subject to my "figment of the imagination" statement? Well, I guess I can post "gods are figments of the imagination" 4999 times with the specific god's name inserted, but I actually think there's at least a billion versions of gods. And you are wasting my time! Funny though! |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 7:48pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion:I just said there is a billion, so there! |

butterflylion: Assumption? You smoke Igbo abi? Have you seen any direct evidence for the unicorn God? Or even any God or magical creature? |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:49pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
budaatum: You are actually keeping me busy here as you are running rings around yourself. What do you understand by the word ABRIDGED? |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 7:49pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion:And stop lying. He did not "SPECIFICALLY mention 10000 magical" anythings! |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:53pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
superhumanist: Absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence is it? You could be arguing from ignorance. If you were in every grain if sand or every drop of water or every leaf of every tree or every ice crystal etc then you can be sure about your knowledge since you would be everywhere, in the past, future, present etc to know that what isn't there today was not there yesterday. |

butterflylion: but I was dishonest when I tried to do the same. |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:55pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
budaatum: The 5000 different gods do not exist for the same reason that the 10,000 magical fairytale creatures do not exist: I know you saw the word THE before 10,000 . If that isn't specific then call me a reindeer. |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:55pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
Gggg102: Because it is my thread and I already gave rules. |

butterflylion:Abridged Version "All gods are figments of the imagination!" |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 7:56pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion:Reindeer! He did not list 10000 anything! |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:58pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
budaatum: I didn't say he listed. You keep claiming what is never said. WHY? he said THE 10,000 which means they are EXACTLY 10,000. If that isn't specific then you need to check your grammar. |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 7:59pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
Gggg102:Now you are beginning to understand the op. The rules you must obey do not need to be obeyed by him! 1 Like |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 7:59pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
budaatum: Too abridged and your opinion based on a generalisation. |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 8:02pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
budaatum: Yes because I made the rules for others to follow for the sake of the thread. My rules are not for me but for others. If you do not like it then throw me an e-slap. |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 8:02pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion:I said one billion. I guess you would henceforth claim buda believes there are a billion gods. I don't like when you switch off your brain! 1 Like |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 8:03pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
I e-slap you! |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by budaatum: 8:03pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion:Lol! |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by Gggg102(m): 8:05pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion: 'absence of evidence isn't evidence of absence' only works for pantheist/deist god. the theist god wants to have a relationship with us and according to their stories, they reveal themselves to man. evidence of the god should easily be available. unless he is hiding but wants us to believe he exists. 1 Like |

budaatum: I know when to detect sarcasm so give me some credit Like a certain Billy guy would always say on nairaland, my brain is operating on a higher frequency of 5D |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by butterflylion: 8:07pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
Gggg102: You have switched off again. It works for EVERYTHING. |
Re: Atheists Let's Discuss God. by Gggg102(m): 8:08pm On Mar 20, 2018 |
butterflylion: when the believers share their experiences we are to take their words for it according to you but when budaatum shares his', it is just his opinion. |

butterflylion: wow! no evidence for a god that wants us to know him and often reveals himself to us. |
