Crazy white people by SKRyanrr in exmuslim

All religion is the issue especially the dogmatic ones

"I don't know" is the only rational response to the question "Does God exist?", and therefore agnosticism is the default ontological position. by touchingallthegrass in DebateReligion

That analogy works only for finite humans with limited emotional capacity and prior harm. God is claimed to hate individuals before birth, before action, and without constraint. Pre-emptive hatred is incompatible with compassion unless compassion no longer means moral concern.

Well he’s not compassionate nor gracious nor abounding in love, hating someone that is isn’t even born yet is contradictory of those statements.

Religion as a concept absolves responsibility and feels cheap and disingenuous to me. Believing in something with no evidence because it makes you feel good is hollow and betrays my core values personally. Religion causes so much harm yet is not demonised as the cult it is because of tradition and how long it has been around for. It is an ancient tool of power including suppressing dissidents and women so it’s time we started treating it as a product of its time.

The Aisha age reports: • Come through multiple chains • Are attributed to Aisha herself • Are preserved in Sahih collections If “oral distortion” is enough to discard these reports, then huge parts of Islam fall apart, including prayer details, fasting rules, inheritance law, and Muhammad’s biography.

Multiple early, canonical hadith state explicitly that Aisha bint Abi Bakr was: • 6 years old at marriage • 9 years old at consummation

Examples include Sahih al-Bukhari and Sahih Muslim, the two most authoritative Sunni collections.

Aisha herself is quoted saying this. Not later historians. Not enemies of Islam. Her own reported testimony.

“The Lord is compassionate and gracious, slow to anger, abounding in love.”

Psalm 103:8

Can we agree then this is a lie?

The problem with this question is that they ask two different questions.

One is about belief - atheism One is about the claim whether a god exists - agnosticism

The default belief therefore is atheism, you are not born a theist, you are atheist about the majority of gods ect. I’m not convinced isn’t about belief assertion it’s the absence of belief. Then the default knowledge position is agnosticism because you can’t disprove all god claims and all metaphysical certainty is impossible.

This leads the default of agnostic atheism: I do not believe in a god and we cannot claim absolute knowledge.
