1. How much of all knowledge do you know? Draw a circle on a piece of paper to represent it.
2. Now, if that is what you know of all knowledge, how can you be sure there is no God?
...Help me understand, please........

I answer atheist questions because I have been called thisso many times, simply because I am not Christian.
I don't know everything, but I know I place my thinking further than limiting it to a bible. Which by the way, is fictional. Which is also written in part by mentally ill people who were considered saints by men-not by God.
My mind is open and can be changed, my mind is not closed to all things other than the bible. I do believe in God, but am considered atheist since I am not christian. This is where they are wrong.

1. ok, drawn.
2. I can't be sure there is no god. It is just simply what I believe. Isn't that what faith is all about? How can you be sure there is a god?
So what about the circle on a piece of paper. What is that supposed to mean. It has no relation to anything. Didn't you mean draw TWO circles...one representing all knowledge...and then one representing all of my knowledge? One being significantilly larger than the other.

How can you be sure there is one?
Of all of the knowledge in the world, nobody has very much at all. None of us. And there is no way to be sure whether there is a God or not, even if we all got together and compared notes.

1) I know very little of ALL knowledge. A tiny amount, I'm sure.
2) I can't be sure there is no god. I can't be sure there's no tooth fairy or santa clause, either. I don't know if there are really aliens, either. When someone comes up with some evidence to say that there actually are any of these things, I'll rethink my beliefs. Until then, I'll be a rational human being and disbelief foolish notions.

old take off from Einstein but ignorant of thousands of arguements to the contrary and his version of god didn't include what most think . so back to the drawing board. Meanwhile draw you own circle to represent your god and all else is the knowledge of the universe you know not.

This can go in the reverse, how do you know that there IS a God? Help me to understand why you find it so important to post on Yahoo Answers to try and convert people to religion? I think both sides need to drop it, it gets old fast.

Students, take your pencils....Draw another circle on a piece of paper to present it. Do you think you have all wise and knowing Christians with you ?? How to you know there is a creator god....No one ever saw him, nor heard him( except Moses) No one else has either. Is He hiding???? NO , I doubt it... He just isn't there...

I guess you kind off make a good point. but can you prove there is a god? I know that it is impossible to prove or disprove, but until there is even a tiny bit of evidence that there is a god I will never believe

I know only very little.There is no god there.
There are many unknowns.You assume and attribute all those knowns and unknowns to god.If you are more knowledgeable it is up to you to prove that assumption..
