for all of you atheist, if not god then who?

Question

If god doesnt exist then how do you? Is it because you cant see him? Well you cant see your brain... does that mean it doesnt exist. Had you rather spend your whole life beliving in something that turned out not to be real or live your life not beliving and god be real then have to answer to the way you lived your life.

Answer 1

Actually, you can see your brain - it's called a catscan.

Answer 2

I simply don't understand why theist think they need to know why they exist. Does it matter? No matter how we came to be, we are. Whether or not life is the product of divine will or a chance occurence will not change the way things are now. As far as the brain, you could just get an MRI or CAT scan to see it, or shoot someone in the head with a large caliber weapon to see it in the flesh. And I'm sorry, but angering a god that probably isn't there and the empty threat of eternal damnation aren't enough to convince me to believe in all that religious BS.

Answer 3

I can't see air but I know it exists, I know I have a brain because I can use it to answer this question, I spend my whole life beleiving in things that don't exist like peace for example and if it turns out God is real why does anyone have to answer to him anyway we didnt ask him to make us that was his choice not ours.By the way I am not athiest but I can see other people's point and I have an open mind.

Answer 4

You are basing your question on an incorrect assumption. Atheists do not disbelieve in the existence of God simply because we cannot see him/her. We do not believe because we have no evidence that proves the existence of a creator.

By the way, Ronin, that comment was great!!

Answer 5

Not only are there medical procedures to view my brain, but I can take the evidence of dissected cadavers documented by science and infer by my own consciousness and ability to observe that I have a brain.

Anyways, I exist because I was conceived and birthed. How do you exist? The stork?

Answer 6

John Lennon, Bob Dylan, and Jimi Hendrix created the Earth. They gives me supa powers

Answer 7

There is no evidence of a god and the probability of one existing is so low it barely registers. Evolution by Natural Selection created us. I'd rather stay an atheist because it's most logical. Isn't your argument a vague form of the Pascal's Wager? *sighs*

Answer 8

Not so much that we can't see him; we can't prove he exists. You can prove your brain exists, and on the issue of Pascal's Wager (that's what your argument for believing in God is called), I refuse to worship a God who will send me to hell solely on the basis that I don't believe in him. Even if I tried to believe I couldn't, I'd have to fake it, and since he's omniscient he'd see through such a deception and cast me into hell anyway. If I'm not rewarded for living a moral life, then God is a narcissistic megalomanic who needs his ego stroked, and I'm not the guy to do it.

Answer 9

No, I would rather live my life not believeing than to spend it on my knees praying to a non existent entity. You waste half of your life that way. This is not practice, you don't get a second chance.

Answer 10

Pretty muddled thinking there. Why do you need to believe in something like a god to feel whole, moral and happy?

Answer 11

contrary to christian belief the brain can and has been seen weighed probed photographed and much more give up trying to make me believe you have any sense to speak of it is obviously as non existent as your imaginary god.
peace out
