Answer 1

You must be new. This question has been asked soooo many times! The answer is you cannot prove that something does NOT exist, you can only prove something *does* exist.

By the way atheistism is not a word.

Answer 2

God can not be proved to exist and he cannot be proved to not exist. Even if God does exist it cannot be proved that he is male or just one. There could be many Gods and Goddesses. Religion cannot be proved true or false.

There is no absolute truth only personal truth. of course if you have ever ran accross any of my posts in the last 8 months or so you would hear me say that a lot. There is only personal truth. Even the statement that their is absolute truth is just an opinion not based on facts and cannot be proved. If it cannot be proved then it cannot be absolute truth and is just and opinion not based on facts and therfore just as valid and any other opinion not based on facts.

Just because someone beleives something does not make it true. Believing in God does not make him exist and not beleiving in God does not make him or her or them not exist.

Each person must choose what they blieve and stay true to their truth. Atheism is true for the athiest. Christ is true to the Christian, pagan Gods and Goddesses are true for the pagan etc etc.

Answer 3

Atheism is the disbelief in the existence of any deities. It is commonly defined as the denial of theism, amounting to the positive assertion that deities do not exist, or as the deliberate rejection of theism. However, others—including most atheistic philosophers and groups—define atheism as the simple absence of belief in deities.

Although atheists are almost invariably assumed to be irreligious or non-spiritual in Western culture, this does not necessarily hold true for all atheists. So to say Atheism does not hold anything against God. It is only a pure refusal to believe in something man-made. Like a deity or a figure.

Hope you get the picture.

Answer 4

OK, if you call your self a Christian then you believe that God is all powerful, all creating, all knowing, all present, all good. However since there is evil in the world, God is either not all good or not all powerful and all creating. Hence the logic that Christians follow with their God contradicts itself and if you believe in Christianity then you in fact prove that there is no God.
This example may be easier for people to follow:
A murdering rapist hangs outside of a school and kidnaps a young girl. The young girl all throughout her life prayed to God and asked for world peace, etc.
The rapist holds her and abuses her, terrorizes her, etc.
Now God being all powerful could have stopped that at any time.
God being all knowing would have known in advance about this and could have stopped it prior to happening.
God being all present was there during every horrible, gruesome act that was done to this innocent girl and did nothing.
So since God did nothing but watch this horrible act and did nothing out of his free will, then God must be immoral and evil. God having all that power did nothing but watch the act happen. That is sadistic and nothing more. Hence the Christian God can not exist.
Does that help you out?

Answer 5

First you have to define god. If you mean "the omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent god of the bible" then yes there is evidence that he does not exist. The best being those three qualities are incompatible. Look into it. Google it. You'll see.

Now can we prove that NO god of any kind exists? No we cannot.

And we don't just act smart, we actually are.

[Edit: We're on the right path. Whoops, you said we couldn't answer it.]

Answer 6

There is no way of ever proving whether God exists or not. There are too many variables, too many possibilities and science is no where near coming close to answering all of them. The falsehood in science, lies in the fact that we take as a truth. They are just theories based on what we observe and what is repeatable. Basically, science used to say, "If we can't see it or measure it, then it doesn't exist." More and more, science is realizing that they're wrong, in dark matter and dark energy theories for example. Science is realizing its limitations. I'm not saying God does exist. I have no idea. But on a purly intellectual level, that's all one can say. "I don't know."

Answer 7

You two analogies are faulty, the way I see it. That is right, we can't see gravity, yet we feel it, or see it when we let go of something and it drops to the floor. This harden our heart to God and that is why we don't feel him doesn't jar with me. There are times I have asked him in, and there have been a lot of times he doesn't not. You see, every time I let go of something in mid-air, all the time, it falls to the floor. Every time I ask God for something, or let him in, most of the time, if not all of the time, nothing. Even then, if something happens, can we prove that he did it, by proving gravity when something falls to the floor from mid-air? Ask how many people, who have not harden their heart to God and still get nothing? You prove gravity using a positive, and try to prove God's existence using a negative. Why not use a positive for proving God's existence?

Answer 8

It is not possible to prove or disprove the existence of God. Some people believe God exists, some people don't. That's basically the situation. Don't take it personally.

Answer 9

Atheists don't have to prove that God doesn't exist. As the person making the claim that God DOES exist, you believe one more thing than I. You, therefore, have to prove that thing to be true. This is a fundamental principle of logic, and the foundation of the justice system. The burden of proof is on the one making the claim, not the one who does not believe it.

Also, I do not say "God doesn't exist". I say that I do not believe that God exists. There's a difference.

Answer 10

No we can't. But the onus is not on us to prove his non-existence. proving the non-existence of something is a logical impossibility, but that doesn't mean the default position is that it therefore must exist.

The onus is upon the positive claimant to prove the existence of something. If I say there are people living in the center of the sun called 'Heliodytes' you would require proof to believe that such people actually exist wouldn't you? It's simply not sound reason to say 'X exists and you can't prove it doesn't, so that proves it exists.'

And that's your lesson in elementary logic for today.
