Atheists, by arguing that there is no God aren't you acknowledging God?

Question

Why do you always try to disprove God when you know you can't? lol...Atheists are sooo into religion lmao

Ok first of all I'm not Christian so don't worry about that lol ... I do believe in God, but WTF are atheists so into religion if they don't believe in God?? or gods for that matter? lol

Answer 1

I am not an atheist - but your argument is illogical.

Good Luck!!!

Answer 2

Atheists take enough interest in religion, often as a social and/or psychological phenomenon, to have an opinion that is often well thought out and educated.

Many true believers refuse to even consider framing the debate in language other than their own. So the only way I can speak with them is to use their vocabulary.

Very few atheists actively try to disprove 'god'; maybe try asking again with a better understanding of who we tend to be and how we tend to think.

But if this is your weight loss plan, I don't mind. You're the one who looks silly.

1. I don't argue there is no God. I have no need to do so. If believing in a deity gets you through the night, have at it! My belief differs. I'm just intellectually honest enough to call my belief a BELIEF and not fact. :)

2. Even if I had motivation to do so, I do not "try to disprove God." There is no way to prove the nonexistence of an alleged noncorporeal entity. Such an effort is doomed from the moment it begins. The burden of proof rests with those who choose to allege the existence of such a being.

You sound very insecure in your choice to believe in an invisible entity. Rather than apply logic to your choice, you figure you'll take nasty shots at those who don't believe in your invisible entity.

What does your religion have to say about pride and arrogance, eh? :)

Answer 4

Your argument is illogical and nonsensical.

Atheists do not believe in God, because of a lack of proof for God, not because there is proof that he does not exist. Atheism is not a religion, as it cannot be defined as such.

A religion requires not just faith and belief, but also a supernatural higher power, normally in the form of a deity. As Atheism is the denial of a deity, it cannot be a religion by definition, as it has no deity to speak of.

If you argue there is no Flying Spaghetti Monster, are you acknowleding there is a Flying Spaghetti Monster? No.

If I say there are no such thing as flying pigs, does that mean I'm acknowleding there are flying pigs?

Answer 5

Well, here in America, the majority is Christian. These are also the people who are voting.... and trying to vote in laws according to their religion. Now, in order to show that this is wrong... or what they are saying is wrong, one must know about the Religion that drives these people. Look at our own President... bring up that Homosexuals shouldn't marry. Of all things! In the middle of a war! Homeland Security is in the toilet! And it was Election time.... he used the whole Homosexual subject to get the Christians to vote him back in. By using his religion he did this. How do you combat that if you don't know anything about the religion?

Pagan.

Answer 6

Here is the rub. Atheist don't believe God exists. Most if not all also say they don't believe in religion. But by there very nature they have created a religion. A religion of unbelief, and it is as dogmatic as they claim Christians to be. And in some ways even more so. Most atheist are evolutionists and natural selectionist. Now if you start talking about their beliefs and start picking apart any hole in their arguments their fall back position is to call you stupid and dogmatic for your belief. They paint you into a corner with rules but if you take the paint brush and apply the same rules most bail and are left calling you names.

Most atheist are very intelligent, I am not mocking their intelligence..they do study, but they will hold onto a burning thread of their belief before they grab a solid branch of yours no matter your belief.

Answer 7

No. It doesn't work that way. The only thing we woulld be arguing by implication is that there are people who believe that a god exists.

And, yes, there is plenty of evidence that God is man-made. You only have to look at the literature about God to see that it is.

We are sooooo into religion because of the harm it is causing the world. We wish to educate people about this harmful superstition so that they can get past it.

Answer 8

we're not out to disprove the existence of god, there's no secret society of atheists working towards that goal and people who refuse to believe in god aren't concerned about disproving the existence of something because that is physically impossible, I can't disprove the existence of pink giraffes but we all know there aren't any pink giraffes, your reasoning is illogical, and it's quite rude to laugh at the views of others, where's the decency in that? what kind of religion discourages tolerance?

Answer 9

Atheists do not want to disprove the existence of a deity. They are convinced there is no deity and believe the burden of proof rests on the shoulders of the theists to prove its existence.

Answer 10

This is where you should stop asking things related to religion IF you are a Christian yourself. I asked this exact same question and continued onto more and more religious questions. That is when I almost turned away from God completely in one night. A little over-emotional, but true. Yes, they can sometimes be acknowledging God by arguing He isn't there.

It is kind of like covering your eyes and saying you don't believe in hands.

"I don't need to disprove George Bush, I already know he doesn't exist." Sounds funny, but it is true enough.

Answer 11

God doesn't need any acknowledgement of His creatures. He creates and sustains all out of His love. Man is particularly endowed with the rational sense to fathom His mysteries and to enjoy the fruit of creativeness. It is really regretful for the man who deprives himself of this most glorious blessing. That is why the believers realize that their duty is to sacrify their all to remind people about the benefit of obeying the law of the One True God.
