Thank you!

this is a debate, don't just post your religion. refer to my post if you want to know what debating is.

None! Well actually the christian God came down and when he asked why I dont worship him I responded "Because you kill millions of innocent people". But I think most sensible people can see that religion is used just to fill the void of what we do not know and help us cope with life (alas it was and is still used in cases today as a form of control over a people and gain power and/or wealth) .

am i the only person here who doesnt belive in a religon but belives there is a god but that this god doesnt care what happens to you or others?

Nope. Atheism is a lack of belief in God or gods.



Atheism isn't based on facts. It's simply a lack of belief in something for which there is no evidence. If you're an atheist, it doesn't necessarily mean you believe in evolution, the big bang, etc.



But why believe it in the first place?



Neither can pixieism . That's still not a valid reason to believe in it.



Such as... ?



I do believe in something. I believe in rocks, water, doors, lamps, etc.

Are you referring to why not believe in gods? Because there's no evidence that would give me any reason to. Even if I wanted to believe God, I still wouldn't be able to because the bullshit detector in the back of my head would be going off constantly. I can't just simply believe in something I know isn't there. I can't believe in God any more than I can believe in pixies - even if I wanted to.



2% ? Try 10^-You must login or register to view this content.% chance. Why not take the chance? Same reason I don't take the chance of believing in Allah or Krishnah.



I still have just as much a chance of getting into heaven as you: 10^-You must login or register to view this content.% .

Faithfulness is a synonym for gullibility. (No, really. The more faithful you are, the more likely you will believe something for which there is no evidence.)

SeArGaNt-KoCk just got pooped on by elf, imo. Couldn't have said it better myself.

Exactly.. A lack of belief in god or gods. Either way, it is a belief.





But, in the other thread you claimed that Atheism was based on facts?





For what you would call a, "Comfort Zone". Why not have some hope to be in a perfect place?




Well, pixieism is not a real religion. I just used it to emphasize what i was saying. :p But how is a perfect world not a valid reason to believe?




The Bible. Written by disciples of God.




For one thing, you don't know it isn't there, as you said above.



What is that reason?



That may be true, but what sounds better and be honest. Eternal nothingness. Or eternal life in a perfect world?

Lack of belief is the opposite of belief lol.



No I didn't. I was providing counter-examples to religious reasoning. Atheism is just a lack of belief. Just like how pixie-nonbelief isn't based on facts.



Because either way you're not getting the perfect place. Deluding yourself into that sort of false hope is the same type of thing that drives suicide bombers btw.



Just because you can't disprove something it doesn't mean you should believe it. Just like how you shouldn't believe that dogs use telepathy to control major league baseball, even though you can't disprove it.

Yes, but that doesn't mean it's not ridiculous. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.



Simple. How many possible gods are there? Infinity. So what percent chance is it that your god is the correct one? 0.0000(infinite zeros)1. Which, by the way, means 0% chance because the one at the end can never be tacked on as long as there is an infinite line of zeros preceding it.



What sounds better, eternal life in a perfect world or an infinite existence of euphoria? It doesn't matter because you're not getting either one.

^^ Lack of belief isn't disbelief though.

Atheists believe in nothing. How can they have any belief..
