Answer 1

I know, but thanks for the input. ;-)

Answer 2

All those arguments are terrible.

1) That's because people have always needed away of explaining things that they couldn't without invoking the supernatural.

2) Probability is useless when trying to determine whether the universe had to have had a creator. It assumes that life as we know it, on this specific planet was somehow a desired outcome. By the same logic one can do the impossible by rolling a few hundred thousand 20 sided dice.

3) See 2.

4) Argument from ignorance, and there are naturalistic explanations for morality.

5) Proving that some of the events described in the bible aren't completely historically inaccurate says nothing about the accuracy of the religion on a whole. The similarities described between the books of the bible are also similarities between christianity and tons of other religions out there.

6) Jesus is a complete ripoff of saviours and heroes from religions that predate christianity. There's no evidence to suggest that Jesus performed any miracles. No evidence he rose from the dead, either.

Answer 3

1. Is an Argument To Popularity. Alot of people use to think the world is flat also.
2. No real evidence.
3. There is no explanitation for Creationism. It is merely a concept.
4. Morals come from society. You can see this fact by the diffrent morals societys have. Even christian ones.
5. Where you see god I see nature. The bible has been proven wrong on alot of things. What makes you think it is right about God?
6. Just because he says he is God does not mean he is. Even Paul did not think Jesus was God. Paul Started your religion.

I might not be right but you are wrong. :P

Answer 4

What rubbish!
All those points have no scientific (or any other sort of) evidence.

The first point assumes because a lots of people believed in a god in history, then there must be one. What about all the brainwashing by the churches to control the majorities in a time where people weren't as educated as free willed as we are today.

The second point states about a "designer" who created the universe. Well, the big bang can explain that.

The third point stating that everything didn't happen by chance. Well obviously. Things happen for many reasons, the main one being evolution. Our bodies adapt over time for better survival. Things like Mount Rushmore were created by man, nothing to do with god.

The fourth point stating about humankinds sense of right and wrong. That has nothing to do with god or religion. That is something taught to us by our parents, relatives, friends and teachers as we are growing up. We are able to learn these whether we come a theist society or not. There are people in the world who don't have a sense of right and wrong, if god has something to do with this, then he/she must be flawed.

The fifth point is not really even worth mentioning. Stating that god must exist because it says so in the bible of all things. Any educated person can tell you that the bible is full of lies and contradictions. It says a lot of things that can be disproved by science and common sense.

The sixth point is also a weak argument. That is using examples of a character based in a fairy tale book (known as the bible). There is no absolutely no evidence of jesus existence. Its like saying well Santa must exist because the tooth fairy told me so. You can't justify or prove existence using another example of non-existence, it just doesn't make sense.

Overall, a very poor website with a poor argument. Anyone who believes the trash that is spouted is very sad indeed

Answer 5

And if its on a website, then it must be true? The Neo-Nazi's have websites too - is that real? You are preaching to the converted, and you are providing anecdotal evidence, which does not qualify. Try again.

Answer 6

Those aren't "reasons why God is real", they are reasons why people believe that God is real. There is a difference.

Answer 7

The "reasons" given on that site are the same OLD TIRED crap given about it for far too long.

Answer 8

Excellent! Of course you know that some people are going to argue against it anyway, because they have to be right even though they're very clearly wrong.

Answer 9

those all have no real scientific evidence.

Answer 10

yes.

Answer 11

LOL
