Reason 1: DNA
Whilst
agreeing that random patterns occur naturally by chance, DNA however, consists
of code, which requires a designer.
Well according to the bible, we are all product of
incest. Yes if we are descendants from Adam and Eve that means that we are all
somehow related to each other and well, down the road lots of incest had to
have happened in order for the world to be populated. It’s not like God could
just magically pop people into existence? Oh wait, he did!
Reason 2:
Paranormal phenomena
How do you
explain the paranormal, such as people witnessing positive or negative
sightings, likeghosts or angels? I saw a ghost with a friend of mine I am not a
liar, an attention seeker. Neither was I overtired when this happened.
We are steadily learning about our universe and the
fact that time travel is possible opens new windows for science wide open. We
are steadily learning new things but to make shit up like your angel story is
just ridiculous and attention seeking. Yes, we don’t know what happens to us
when we die but it doesn’t mean fantastic story! I mean for fucks sake man, if
you don’t know you don’t know. Why is that so hard to say!!!
Reason 3:
Prayer
Try praying.
What good is it when a mind is set to coincidence & disbelief regarding the
positive outcome?
Pray doesn’t work. Pray does nothing. You’re just
talking to yourself. Next!
Reason 4:
First cause
The law of
cause & effect - in order to have an effect, there has to be a cause.
Everything is caused by something.
Yes I agree but that doesn’t mean fantastic story!
We all know the world wasn’t created in six days and no god spoke it into
existence like a wizard.
Reason 5:
Complexity
Mindless
nothing cannot be responsible for complex something.
Man wasn’t formed from dirt and women didn’t form
from bones. I’m sorry but evolution makes much more sense than the bible.
Reason 7:
Evolution is only a theory
Evolution has
never been proved, which is why we call it the 'theory of evolution'. It's a
fairy tale for grown ups!
Evolution simply means change over time. It is not a
theory, it has been scientifically proven. What do you call the bible? I mean
there are loads of fairy tales in that book, each one more ridiculous than the
next.
Reason 8:
Atheism is based on faith
Atheism is a
faith which has not been proved. The disbelievers have not witnessed anything
to not believe in, whereas the believers believe because they have witnessed.
There is no 'good news' to preach in atheism.
Atheism is not a faith. It’s actually the lack of belief in a god or deity. The arguments used to suggest a god doesn’t exist
seem to be far more compelling than the arguments for a god. Well, most
atheists aren’t actually out there screaming from rooftops about a mythical
person like your religion does. Secondly, atheists just want to live their lives peacefully and aren’t trying to convert other people. It’s just a group of
people who think for themselves. That’s such a cult-y thing to do right? Also,
radical claims require radical proof. Appeal by popularity isn’t one of them.
Reason 9:
Atheists are angry with God
How much of
the atheist's faith relies on anger with God as opposed to genuine disbelief in
God?
I know no atheists that are angry with god; to be
angry with god requires a certain belief in a god. Thus why we call ourselves
atheists, we lack the belief in a god. We aren’t angry with him/her we just
don’t believe he/she exists. What’s so hard to grasp about that!
Reason 10:
Atheists need to get a life
Why do many
atheists shake their fists & spend so much time ranting & raving about
something they don't believe in? If they are no more than a fizzled out battery
at the end of the day, then why don't they spend their lives partying, or
getting a hobby?! Why don't they leave this 'God nonsense' alone?
I’m a bad example of this because I love talking
about how ridiculous religion really is. But it’s unfair because not all
atheists are like me. There are atheists out there that actually do live their
lives and don’t bother people. But to say that all atheists should just get a
life is really rude. How about some of you Christians get a life? I see more
religious people trying to convert people into their religion if anything.
Shouldn’t they get a life?
Reason 11:
Chicken-and-egg paradox
What created
God? What came first, the chicken or the egg? I am not going to deny the
existence of the chicken or the egg, merely because I don't understand or know
what came first. I don't care - they both exist!
Prior to the first true chicken, there were
non-chickens. The DNA changes came about in cells housed in the egg. So the egg
came first. In July 2010, British scientists, using a supercomputer, claimed to
have come up with the final and definitive answer. (Of course you don’t care.
You look at the bible blindly and follow a supernatural figure you don’t even
know if it exists or not.)
Secondly, what created god? That’s a valid question.
God couldn’t have created himself and if he thinks nothing created him then
he’s an atheist himself which makes no sense!
Reason 12:
Improbability vs. impossibility
Improbability
is not the same as impossibility. You only have to look at life itself for that
backup of proof.
You don’t know the difference between improbable or
impossible.
It is highly improbable for me to walk out my house
and run into a god trying to convert me into a religion.
It is impossible for one to walk across water.
Do you understand now?
Reason 13:
Complexity of human life
There’s nothing complex about human life. Birth is a
natural process of life; illness and death are also part of life. How all this
came to be is still being questioned to this day, but that doesn’t mean
fantastic story. We’ve gone over this!
Reason 14:
Complexity of the human mind
How could the
complexity of the human mind possibly evolve on its own accord out of mindless
cells? Where does our consciousness come from?
The human brain is a very powerful organ. It can
make you believe things that aren’t even there and also can be your worse
enemy. Well, that’s exactly what happened. Evolution happened and well here we
are now. Exactly how that happened we still can’t answer that question, but it
wasn’t because of some god sitting on a cloud.
Reason 15:
Food and drink
What/who knew
that our hunger & thirst had to be catered for by the food & drink
which we're supplied with?
Well god did a piss poor job at both. He created
animals we aren’t allowed to eat and he’s also created water that we can’t
drink. If this world were really created just for us, it would be less deadly
to us.
Reason 16: The
five senses
Most of us are
born with the five senses to detect our surroundings, which we're provided
with.
We’ve gained our senses to detect our surroundings
because we adapt to our environment. This is why some people have heightened
senses when they lose one. However, that doesn’t mean that it comes from god.
Otherwise we’d all still be running around naked and not knowing right from
wrong.
Reason 17:
Goldilocks and the habitable planet, part 1
What/who knew
that had Earth been set nearer to the sun, we would burn up?
God surely didn’t know that. Besides if you believe
in god and the bible, you’d be saying that the earth is flat and the sun and
moon spin around the earth like a spinning flat disc.
Reason 18:
Goldilocks and the habitable planet, part 2
What/who knew
that had Earth been set any further from the sun, we would freeze up?
NASA has found proof that life can exist on the
moons of both Saturn and Jupiter. Please explain to me how this is possible
since both planets are far beyond the realm of the ‘Habitable Zone’. It wasn’t
god that did this and I’m pretty sure the whole universe is just stars and
nothingness or heaven according to the bible.
Reason 19:
Goldilocks and the habitable planet, part 3
What/who knew
that had Earth been built larger or smaller, its atmosphere would be one where
it would not be possible for us to breathe?
Which earth are you talking about? The bible says
the earth is flat, so if you think the earth is round then you clearly think
that the bible is not telling the truth. You can’t cherry pick what you want to
believe and what you don’t. Also, the earth really isn’t truly a perfect sphere
because it’s wider at the equator and flat at the north and south poles. So
it’s more oblate shaped or pear shaped which seems more likely also.
We still truly don’t know the origin of our
universe, but that doesn’t mean fantastic story!
Reason 21: The tornado and the 747
The concept that life came about through sheer
chance is as absurd & improbable as a tornado blowing through a junk yard,
consequently assembling a Boeing 747!
We aren’t entirely sure how life came to be on earth
and there are many theories. Evolution suggests that planets and animals
including (humans) evolved over time to adapt to the changing environment
around us. We didn’t come from dirt and bones!
It is highly improbable for a human to pop into
existence from dirt and bones.
Reason 22: The
invisible and the supernatural
We are willing
to believe in physically unseen waves that exist through the air, operating
physical forces & appliances to work [sic], yet not supernatural God forces
being responsible for the same.
We have proof that air waves does exists. We don’t have
proof of a god existing. I mean all god has to do is float down from his cloud
and say here I am. I am alive, but does he do that no! This is why the
existence of god is questioned so much because we have no evidence to suggest
he does, and most of the proofs are based on blind faith.
Reason 23:
Self-organization and entropy
Matter cannot
organise itself. An uneaten tomato will not progress on its own accord to form
a perfect pineapple. It will transform into mould, into disorganisation. The
laws of evolution fall flat.
Are you fucking serious right now? A tomato is not
going to evolve into a pineapple. You have such a gross misunderstanding of
evolution. It simply means change over time. Secondly, if a tomato did evolve
into a pineapple, then everything we know about evolution would change.
Everything we know about science as well would change. Please keep your
religious garbage to yourself.
Reason 24:
Darwin's deathbed conversion
Our 'inventor'
of evolution, Mr. Charles Darwin had this to say to Lady Hope when he was
almost bedridden for 3 months before he died; "I was a young man with
unfathomed ideas. I threw out queries, suggestions; wondering all the time over
everything, and to my astonishment the ideas took like wildfire - people made a
religion of them." Darwin then asked Lady Hope to speak to neighbors the
next day. "What shall I speak about?" She asked. He replied;
"Christ Jesus and his salvation. Is that not the best theme?"
Evolution isn’t a religion. It is scientific fact.
It doesn’t make radical claims that your religion does about human origin, the
universe origin and also mythical creatures that don’t even exists.
Reason 25:
Morality
Where do our
moral values held within our conscience come from? If the atheist is right, why
then would we care about what we did?! If there is no God, then we've no-one to
be accountable to.
Are you fucking stupid? You’re accountable for your
own actions! If you killed someone you will go to jail! If someone went out and
raped someone you would be held responsible and anyone whom assisted you would
also go to jail. You don’t need a god to tell you that, oh wait god think these
things are perfectly okay to do. Yeah you’re fucked no matter what.
Also we all know that morality from the bible would
make us all psychopaths. There’s nothing moral about stoning people to death or
setting your daughter on fire.
Reason 26: Man
vs. animal
If man has
evolved from an animal, why doesn't he behave like an animal? Yet man is
civilised.
Well according to the bible if Adam and Eve didn’t
fuck up, we would pretty much be in the same boat as wild animals, running
around naked with no common sense.
Reason 27: Chance and ignorance
'Chance' isn't
the cause of something. It just describes what we can't find a reason for.
It highly depends on how you use the word chance.
There’s a slight chance for rain. There’s a chance you could injure yourself. I
took a chance and ran across the street. We can find reason for them but that
doesn’t mean ignorance unless you say well there’s a chance that god created
the universe and Adam and Eve are our ancestors. That’s just stupidity!
Reason 28:
Limitations of science and logic
Science &
logic do not hold all the answers - many people are aware of forces at work
which we have no understanding of & no control over.
Yes it is true that there are many things in this
universe we can’t explain and we are steadily learning about it. However, it
doesn’t mean fantastic story and god.
Reason 29:
Gregorian calendar
Look at the
date/year on our calender - 2000 years ago since what? Our historical records
(other than the Bible) record evidence of Jesus' existence.
The Earth isn’t 2000 years old! Our planet is
millions of years old just like our universe. Otherwise the pyramids are much
older than our planet and we all know that makes no sense.
Reason 30:
Martyrs
Many people
have died for their faith. Would they be prepared to do this for a lie?!
Any ideology that encourages you to harm others is
not one worth being part of. Also, any ideology that thinks that you should die
for it is not worth being part of as well. We don’t know if god does or doesn’t
exist because there’s no data to suggest he does, there’s no evidence! These
people died blindly for a religion with no proof if they will be rewarded or not.
Reason 31: Biblical accounts
Much of the
Bible deals with eyewitness accounts, written only 40 years after Jesus died.
When the books in the New Testament were first around, there would have been
confusion & anger if the books were not true.
Eyewitness isn’t really much of proof unless you
have actual physical evidence to back it up. I could say I saw my best friend
fly across the sky without any aid of technology. You would surely ask me if I
have a video or any kind of proof to show he flew across the sky.
This is how you are saying it though, I saw Jesus
he’s a 6’1 super model. Do you have proof of this? Here’s a book and a poorly
drawn photo. This is all the proof you need now worship him. Do you see how
incredibly insane it sounds and how one could be skeptical of your claims?
Reason 32:
Archaeology
From as early
as 2000 BC, there is archaeological evidence to confirm many details we're
provided with in the Bible.
Yes some of the cities and many buildings were found
but that doesn’t mean that everything in the bible is true. There’s no evidence
to suggest that snakes once talked and also the Garden of Eden existed.
Reason 33:
Biblical prophecy
Not one single
Biblical prediction can be shown as false, and the Bible contains hundreds.
There’s a difference between prediction and factual
information. The bible could predict tomorrow the sky will turn blue and all
the clouds will come crashing down to earth. Does this mean that it will
happen? No, because it’s a prediction! It’s not the same as saying well I know
the sky is going to fall tomorrow and here’s my proof of that.
Reason 34: Al
history
The evidence
from literature & historical studies claim that Biblical statements are
reliable details of genuine events
So what you’re saying is a man lived in a whale’s
stomach and managed to live without being digested? Yes, that’s in the bible
and it is a radical claim. But is it true? Well no it’s not but please continue
telling me how that’s factual information.
Reason 35:
Christianity and science in harmony
From the birth
of science through to today, there is no evidence to claim that Christianity
& science are in opposition. Many first scientists were Christians; Francis
Bacon, Isaac [sic] Newton, Robert Boyle, to name a few, along with the many who
stand by their work & faith today.
Creationism isn’t a scientific fact; neither is
Noah’s Ark and a man living in a whale’s stomach. Science sets out to explain
things by trying to figure it out with logic and reason, while the bible just
makes shit up and runs with it.
Reason 36: How
vs. why
Science can
explain 'how' something works, but not 'why' something works.
Science does explain how things work yes but it
doesn’t come up with bullshit to justify anything. If a scientist doesn’t know
they don’t know but are looking into ways to try and figure out how it works.
Your bible just says god does everything and that’s it.
Reason 37:
Science changes
Science is
constantly recorrecting [sic] its findings. Past theories contradict certain
beliefs which are held today. Our present 'discoveries' may change again in the
future to rediscover how we originally came into existence.
Science is constantly changing because science is
steadily finding new thing about our earth and the universe. When we find new
information or discoveries that change what we know, we change our information
and adapt to the new findings. It’s not like your bible that hasn’t changed in
2,000 years.
Reason 38:
Abiogenesis
Evolution
describes the way life possibly started, yet doesn't explain what made life
start & why. Scientific questions fail to do that. Even if evolution were
proved, it would still not disprove God.
Evolution isn’t trying to disprove or prove that a
god exists. Evolution simply means change over time!! What don’t you understand?
Secondly, it’s better to say you don’t know than to say god did it. What’s
wrong with admitting you don’t know?
Reason: 39
The two people
who discovered Jesus' empty tomb were women. Women were very low on the social
scale in first century Palestine, so in order to make the story fit, it would
have made far more sense to claim that it were male disciples who had entered
the tomb. But it wasn't - we're left with the historical & Biblical truth.
There were many things that could’ve happened to
Jesus’s body. One, his body could’ve been taken from the tomb and moved
somewhere else. Two, his body was never placed in the tomb to begin with.
Three, well Jesus never existed. I’d like to think it’s the latter in this
case. I agree in the bible women are depicted as untrustworthy, manipulative and
evil. Eyewitness claims still require proof of these claims, otherwise I’m
going to say I’m skeptical of this claim that Jesus rose from the dead like a
zombie.
How many times does Jesus rise from the dead?
Reason 40:
Near Death experience
Think about
Near Death Experiences. It's naive to believe that they all are induced by
chemicals or drugs. How do we account for a blind person having this
experience, coming back to describe what they had never before seen, a person
telling the Doctor that there is a blue paperclip on top of the high cabinet,
which they couldn't have otherwise known, an african [sic] man being dead in
his coffin for 3 days, coming back to life to tell of much the same events
which took place as those of many others? We never hear of the witnesses
describing "a dream". We're not silly - we know the difference
between even the most vivid of dreams to that of reality.
The sudden awareness that one has had a 'fatal"
accident and not survived
An out-of-body experience
A sensation of floating above one's body and seeing
the surrounding area
Pleasant feelings, calmness
A sensation of moving upwards through a tunnel or
narrow passageway
Meeting deceased relatives or spiritual figures
Encountering a being of light, or a light (possibly
a religious figure, i.e. Jesus, God, Buddha)
Being given a life review
A feeling of being returned to the body, often
accompanied by a reluctance to return
Things like heart attacks, near-drowning and severe
loss of blood can all trigger near death experiences.
NDEs have been experienced by thousands of people
and have been widely cataloged in a variety of books. Many of these books are
"spiritual" or "religious" in nature.
What is not mentioned is that there is a drug called
Ketamine that produces all of the elements of an NDE when it is injected into
normal, non-dying people. In other words, an NDE is a natural, chemically
induced state that the human brain enters. The trigger for an NDE is lack of
oxygen to the brain and body. If you read scientific papers like these, you
find that there is a completely chemical and completely non-spiritual reason
for the features of every NDE.
Is this a direct proof that God is imaginary? No.
However, it is a direct proof that the NDE (which many people use as
"indisputable" proof that God and eternal life exist) has no
supernatural meaning. We can scientificaly prove NDEs to be chemical
side-effects rather than "a gateway to the afterlife" as many
religious believers claim.
Reason 41:
Biblical skeptics
There are many
skeptics who didn't believe in Jesus before his crucifixion, and who were
opposed to Christianity, yet turned to the Christian faith after the death of
Jesus. Just as the many who continue to do so today.
This makes no sense whatsoever! There is no proof
that Jesus actually existed, and there is no proof that he was crucified also.
I don’t understand how someone could say ‘well I didn’t believe in Jesus until
after his crucifixion.’ What?! Are you stupid?
Reason 42:
Einstein quote
Albert
Einstein said; "A legitimate conflict between science & religion
cannot exist. Science without religion is lame; religion without science is
blind".
Religion without science is blind. Science without religion
is awesome. You don’t need religion to make you a good person and you certainly
can’t use religion as scientific fact, then we’d have talking snakes and
burning bushes talking to people. Which by the way none of those things ever
happened!
Reason 43: The
tomato thrower
A speaker in
Hyde Park who was attacking belief in God, claimed that the world just
happened. As he spoke, a soft tomato was thrown at him. "Who threw that?"
He said angrily. A cockney from the back of the crowd replied; "No-one
threw it - it threw itself!"
Well, that maybe kind of true to an extent. Yes, we don’t
know why or how our earth was formed and the creation of the universe is still
unknown. However, you cannot tell me that some wizard created the earth in six
days and its only 2000 years old. We have an old earth not a young one. Science has proven this! I don’t know how many
times I have to keep repeating myself here. Secondly, the person throwing the
tomato is just plain rude; even if you disagree with the guest speaker,
throwing things at him isn’t the answer.
Reason 44:
Occam's supernatural razor
It is easier
to believe that God created something out of nothing than it is to believe that
nothing created something out of nothing.
Again, it is completely hard to believe a wizard
spoke the universe into existence and that our earth was created in six days. I
also find it hard to believe that a man was created from dirt and a woman was
created out of bones. People don’t just pop into existence! Whatever helps you
sleep at night!
Reason 45:
How-vs.-why Hawking quote
Stephen
Hawkins [sic] has admitted; "Science may solve the problem of how the
universe began, but it cannot answer the question: why does the universe bother
to exist?"
So you think that since science has no answer that
religion does? At what point can you tell someone who has never heard of your
god that their goal in life is to glorify your god? I mean this is just
ridiculous! Just because there are no definite answers doesn’t mean insert
fantastic story!
Reason 46:
With God all things are possible
We cannot
confuse God with man. With God in the equation, all things, including miracles
are possible. If God is God, he is Creator of all, inclusive of scientific law.
He is Creator of matter & spirit.
This has to be the dumbest thing ever said. Miracles
Science has proven that miracles don’t really exist. God is not the creator of
the universe because if this were the case, we’d all be product of incest.
Reason 47: Evolved vs. evolving
If we are the product of evolution - by sheer
accident, chance, then we are still evolving. Does it just so happen that we
exist here today with everything so finely tuned for our living. as we now have
it?
Evolution simply means change over time. We (as
humans) adapt to our environment and when our environment changes so must we in
order to adapt. Secondly, the world we live in isn’t finely designed. Majority
of the earth we can’t live on with many dangers that can kill us. God did such
an amazing job with designing us and our earth. It’s like death is literally everywhere.
Reason 48: The
Missing Link
Could it
possibly be that the missing link does not exist?!
The missing link does exist! It’s not Adam and Eve!
We share a common ancestor with primates. We’ve gone over this several times
already!
God has proved
himself to us in numerous ways, all around us. The atheist needs to put his
glasses on. What more can God possibly do if man has shut his eyes to him?
How about God get off his lazy ass and reveal
himself! You can’t leave a book as proof of your existence. Secondly, where
does one look for this proof?
There could only be a few reasons for God and his lack
of presence.
1) God
doesn’t exist.
2) God
is hiding from the fact that he failed his creation.
3) God
abandoned us.
4) God
doesn’t exist.
I know I repeated myself twice there but what other
facts do we have to go by? The bible isn’t evidence to suggest otherwise.
Reason 50:
Jesus Christ is either who he says he is, or he is
the biggest con man history has ever known.
Religion is the biggest con in the universe. We have
no proof of anything that’s written in its texts other than a few geographic
locations. That’s it!
The problem with religion is that most of it is
based on blind faith. You don’t know who god is; you don’t know what this god looks
like and you certainly left wondering if this god even exists. A book isn’t
proof of someone’s existence without evidence to suggest it. Why is there no
photo of god? Why can’t we look at god? Why can’t we question God’s motives? Why
has god killed so many innocent people? Well, if you’ve read your bible like
you claim then the answer is pretty clear. It’s in the first book (Genesis)
when god created Adam and Eve and didn’t give them a sense of right and wrong.
God made it clear, he created us and intended for us to follow him blindly and
stupidly. Otherwise, Satan is the hero here because God is truly the evil one.
