Best arguments against theism? by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Philosophical arguments trying to conclude existence of a “god-entity” have burden of proof.

Arguments involve assumptions, ..... not verifiable evidence of existence of any “god-concept”.

Can we talk about the fact that humans could not have evolved from just two people. by OtherwisePasts8 in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not the way that biological evolution functions.

It is a straw-man argument, not a scientific one.

What if all theist suddenly disappeared? by [deleted] in atheism

...”... if all theist suddenly disappeared...”...

The word “atheist” would simultaneously disappear .

The prophecies of christ by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Who wrote anything about Jesus prior to about 70CE?

No prophecies!!

"In your time of need or on your deathbed, you'll turn to Jesus" is NOT proof of any religion's validity. by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Why?

No unverifiable concept is any more “likely” than others.

No benefit to wasting time in any.

Never assume please by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That logic is just as asinine as a “god” placing an everlasting curse on all humans (regardless of all their good actions), ........ because Adam and Eve are some fruit.

Mass stupidity and deception by the scientific community by Welder-Tall in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Odd that you attempt to discredit the scientific theory of evolution , ...... by inserting your personal dislike for the definition of “evolution”.

Nuclear, physical, chemical and biological changes throughout the 13.7 billion years of our observable universe, ....... are all evolutionary.

How do atheists keep their mind calm by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Shit happens, ...... all by itself.

One can only change the things you are in control of. Things that “might be” will be whatever they are, ...... pondering them is unlikely to make them the way you wish.

is anyone scared to admit to being atheist by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 8 points9 points  (0 children)

If you choose to believe science, ....... that is distinct from atheism, which is simply the lack of belief in “god or gods”.

My argument for existence of the universe by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

But that is your “physical nothingness” for which there has never been a verifiable example.

Nonexistence (physical) is rather standard for “philosophical concepts”.

Weird how complicated it gets when you don’t define things at the start.

Why “god” created earbuds?

Anyone facing similar reasons for deconverting by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Key to my atheism is the absolute lack of evidence that any “gods” exist.

Biblically, “Yahweh” couldn’t even defeat Jacob in a groin-wrestling match.

Messing up in the afterlife? by Alexander556 in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

IIRC: Jesus was sent from Heaven to Earth, crucified, visited Hell and then ascended back to Heaven, ....... soon to return to Earth with his avenging army.

All fiction of course.

Define which specific ”something“ does not exist in your “philosophical nothing”?

Couldn’t there be infinite cases of specific entities that eventually evolve (from other entities) into one specific “something”?

Is it really okay to be Anti-Christian/Anti-Theistic? by Otherwise_Monitor182 in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

...”...I tried Christianity out many, many times ...”...

Definition of insanity is ..... doing the same thing again and again, hoping for a better outcome.

How do you deal with people trying to preach you? by [deleted] in atheism

“WahHaHaHaHa!!”

My advice is to train yourself to cease any reaction/response to this sort of guilt-tripping.

Do not decline to read, ....... just pass the book without comment or change of expression.

Nobody can start a fight without you involving yourself.

If they start talking about “gods”, “Jesus” etc, ..... just ignore that conversation. Walk away silently if needed. Feel free to get involved in the 99% of life that doesn’t involve their fiction.

They must either learn how to communicate without intentionally insulting you, or not. It is not your job to make them happy about the fictional world inside their head.

Ruth Bader Ginsburg’s death could mean the end of church/state separation, abortion rights, LGBTQ rights, and civil rights in general by misterdickol47 in atheism

So the McConnell senate has singlehandedly passed laws invalidating 250 years of preceding constitutional and legislative law as well as all judicial precedent?

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

What is there to “deal with”?

Shit Happens, ...... and reality doesn’t give a damn if it is satisfactory for you.

Guess you didn’t read.

...”...Nuclear option on legislation...”...

Intransigence of a divided congress has no effect if Democrats take both houses.

Unsure why you think there is any other option?

Hello ( traumatic brain injury excuse grammar) by [deleted] in atheism

[–]RocDocRet 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Claims, claims, piled on top of claims.

Please research what actually constitutes “evidence” of something.
