Alright I have been researching theories talking with other Atheists and I have discovered some people who are Atheists but for the wrong reasons like... 1.Settling a score with God because they hate him for (whatever)reasons. 2.Just because. Some good reasons... 1.There is no evidence. 2.A book written by primitive people is no proof for any God/Gods. 3.Nothing can be omniscient and omnipotent. Any other reasons can be stated for I am interested in some of your reasons or reasons not to be.
^Bloody hell! This is worse than me getting bullied at my school. Here is my reason: I DO NOT believe in God. There. Stop "humiliating" me. I freaking find flaws in your posts and I don't bother with them. Oi! You listening to me?
Yes it is true I went over the top calling you an arrogant smhuck, so I am sorry for that. BUT, you claiming to be smart and all? Without giving evidence or even a valid argument? That is fair game.
And as far as I know, you haven't pointed out holes in my argument. Point them out. This is a debate.
1. You make claims, you better be showing evidence.
I don't see any "evidence" that God exists, either. They make claims and all they say is that the Bible says so and that stuff. **** it, this is about opinions! Here! I think that God isn't real! There! Now, please, bugger off! I'm about to punch my freakin wall! THERE IS NO GOD! I'm freaking trying to calm myself down but I'm about to pop right through your freaking screen and say boo!
*calms self down after punching wall*
Look, I'm sorry that I fail at posting. It's not my fault.
Here: I don't think God is real because I do not believe that the Bible is the truth. Just that. Okay?
Nope that is not okay. Most Christians don't literally believe in the Bible, that's not to say they don't believe in God's existence.
As stated earlier it is perfectly alright to say God doesn't exist. But just saying "I don't believe in the Bible" is a rather weak reason. Have you seen Him? No. But that doesn't prove anything. It is non falsifiable as I have stated so many times.

Hmm... studying for flaws... **** it! Maybe it's because I haven't taken my depression medication yet. Yeah, here. This you could probably see what I'm trying to say. I am technically "in the middle", but I lean towards the opinion that God isn't real. Ah, it's hard arguing with a person right in the middle.
But just saying "I don't believe in the Bible" is a rather weak reason.
Yeah. I could say "I don't believe the Civil War happened because the source information and accounts are all opinionated." However, there is evidence that battles took place about 150 years ago. Similar to how artifacts at locations referenced in the Bible are being discovered in archaeological digs. There are some truths in the book, but again, opinionated or biased.

There are some truths in the book, but that only happened because they knew of the artifacts that were there. Still, I don't think that most of the Bible is based on fact.
Arent beliefs and opinions roughly the same thing Jeol? Both atheists and theists take a leap of faith in their opinions/beliefs.
Universalism is just a concept that holds a certain idea is universal. Just as Christians aim not so much to try to stretch their bible for everyone but to adapt to the modern conception of society.
Central to the doctrine of Christianity is that people believe they can gain salvation via Christ. It doesn't entail taking the bible Literally as a necessary characteristic.
Furthermore Stephen still hasn't given evidence that God doesn't exist other than refuting taking the bible literally which most Christians have alreay done.

Right.
dictionary.com Christian: of, pertaining to, believing in, or belonging to the religion based on the teachings of Jesus Christ.
God doesn't want to reveal himself, at least not 'till the third coming...
And even then he won't "appear" in a visible form, just as a force, similar to Death in Final Destination. To a theist, the events will be the work of God; to an atheist, the events will be natural occurances.
In the end, the third coming, it is believed that Christ will ride in on a White Horse, if I remember correctly... It's been a while since I've read the book of Revelation.
That can't be taken literally. The chapter also states that a leapord-like bear-footed lion-mouthed 7-headed 10-horned beast will rise out of the sea.
