If you deny God, you must deny the world. If you deny the world, you must deny life. If you deny life, you must not live.

Most of you answered with your 'logic'; and denied that i possessed any as such. Therefore you denied an answer of truth to be shed over the question. Why were people created or in your terms, 'why did people come into creation'? If the answer to that leads to a myriad of possibilities, out of which only one could be correct, what chance could it not have to prove that God does exist? If you lived only on chance, why do you not die on chance? Why do somepeople not not die, die? If it was mere chance, somebody should live, by chance. Well why not?

Don't let the guys on this discussion forum that claim to be Atheists sully your opinion of actual atheists.
Many of the real ones are actually decent guys, they just aren't convinced that GOD exists.

I'll be the 20th person to say this-you're "logic" isn't logical. Your question doesn't make sense. I don't deny the world, I deny what you have firm faith in. I don't deny life, I live it. I' not mad in either sense (angry or crazy), however, I find this question ridiculous. I think we are here to further the human race, to improve society, to leave this world in a better condition than when we found it.
If you believe in God, then whats the point of living? The after life is surely better, so why are you alive right now?

The foolishness that serves you as a substitute for logic and reason is a logical fallacy (a flaw in thinking) known as the "Argument From Incredulity"... which is a sub-category of the "Argumentum ad Ignorantiam" (Argument From Ignorance). It goes something like this: "I can't conceive of how this might have come to be; therefore, God did it."
That does not point to a limitation of nature... rather, it exemplifies a limitation of knowledge and/or intellect. Also, it is intellectually dishonest, since it does not (as scientists do) ACKNOWLEDGE the limitation of knowledge and/or intellect... it merely invokes the fanciful idea of a supernatural creator-entity to manifest the ILLUSION that cognitive dissonance has been resolved.
'Faith' (wishful, magical thinking) is a substitute for evidence.
'Belief' (the internalized 'certainty' that you are privy to the 'truth' pertaining to some fundamental aspect of existence and/or reality) is a substitute for knowledge.
faith + belief = self-delusion and willful ignorance

I'm a Christian, but even I don't agree with your logic. Atheists don't believe in God - as a Creator, Lord or Father. If He isn't a part of their beliefs, then they don't accept that He created them, the world, or life itself. They are in fact alive and some of them are wonderful, loving human beings. They simply do not believe in God.

Just give up as*hole. You are never going to convert an atheist. Your argument is weak. There is no need to believe in "god" to believe in the world. An Atheists argument is often based on evolution thus they believe that our existence on this planet is a matter of chance not a matter of creation.
You are a desperate fool. Just shut the f**k up.

I'm with picard. False logic. I embrace the world and living. I don't accept your god exists, therefore I deny it nothing. And I live for this life, not some fairy tale life after death.

athiest's deny the exsistence of a higher power, whether it be a God, or Allah, or Buddah, etc. they don't deny the world...it's there. why would they deny it? they don't deny life...they have one. why would they deny it? athiest don't deny things that are scientifically proven, such as the fact that life exists and so does the world.

I don't need people like you telling me what I deny and what I don't. It's people like you that make atheists mad. I don't deny anything in your little list except for a god. Otherwise, I'm a very happy person.

Why must I deny the world if i deny your god? Thats like saying, "If you deny Zeus, you deny the world." Do you deny Zeus?

Eh-eh. I don't deny the world, I can see it, I'm standing on it. I deny those things which cannot be proven to exist.
