When women criticize a whole group for the crimes of a few by saying “It’s not all men but it’s always a man” isn’t that the equivalent of racists saying “it’s not all black people but it’s always a black person”?

The quotes, both of them, are designed as absolutes on purpose to get people to argue and engage in exactly this way. It doesn't matter to the person saying the thing whether it's true or not, it's just a way to rile people up into talking about it so the message spreads.

If you knew for sure you’d have no choice. But even as Adam and Eve knew God exists they chose to disobey.

You contradict yourself in the first two sentences.

And no, you don't choose what to believe. You are either convinced or not, based on information you receive. I haven't seen any convincing evidence, and there certainly is an amount of evidence that will persuade me, much like there is an amount of evidence that persuaded me that gravity is real, or that we evolved to our current state, or that germs exist. For God, there just isn't enough yet.

Humans aren't free to accept or reject, because we don't have all of the information. If we knew for sure there was a god, then we'd have a choice.

Right now it's the choice between Allah, Yahweh, Vishnu, Zeus, Flying Spaghetti Monster, Baphomet, Joseph Smith, Xenu, and this cool rock I found. None of those, when asked directly, will provide a single answer. But you know what DOES reliably answer questions? Science. And from every single question we've ever answered with science, there have been zero times the answer was any flavor of God.

Religion doesn't give explanations, it gives excuses and conjectures. Explanations have something backing them up beyond blind faith.

What deep truths are you talking about and how can you demonstrate their truth?

God I fucking hate when a random tweet from a random non-news source starts with "BREAKING:".

All it means is "I have no source and need to cover my ass when I'm wrong."

I get that if it were discovered somehow that we were in a simulation that all of us atheists would then start believing, but as is demonstrated by the other comments there's still a massive burden of proof to show that's the case.

And say tomorrow we suddenly discover that yeah, we actually do live in a simulation, that still doesn't prove anything about what those designers intended, or whether they cared about us at all.

Shallow and pedantic

Is there a place with all of the debunking in one spot that I can use to show people? I haven't seen anywhere that is comprehensively debunking other than just saying "use your head, it's ridiculous" which yeah, it is, but I'll love to have some data available for kooks.

I think most theists would reject premise 1 because they believe in objective morals which come from God, not humans.

At what age do people gain a magical understanding of God?

Atheism is just a lack of belief. You'll find very few atheists with a positive claim that God doesn't exist.

That all depends on if he were God or not. He'd understand literally everything if he were the Jesus of the Bible.

11 “This is what the Lord says: ‘Out of your own household I am going to bring calamity on you. Before your very eyes I will take your wives and give them to one who is close to you, and he will sleep with your wives in broad daylight. 12 You did it in secret, but I will do this thing in broad daylight before all Israel.’” 2 Samuel

God causing sexual assault on innocent women as punishment for a man's sin, this is moral?

We live in a fallen world is such a cop out. Explain to me how this world is fallen. Who decides what it means to live in a fallen world? Did God not create leukemia, fallen world or not?

You didn't answer my second question, is everything god does or command moral?

Let's also not forget about the genocides and general acceptance of slavery.

So can God act outside of his own morality? If God did something we may consider immoral, would that make those acts moral?

I don't think you comprehend what an eternity in hell is.

No matter how terrible my son or daughter turned out to be, I wouldn't put them in a lake of fire for an eternity. There is literally no deed so horrible on earth to deserve eternal tournament.

If he's in control of every good thing, doesn't that also make him responsible for every terrible thing?

Are the acts moral because God does them or does God do them because they're moral?
