Do you also believe in leprachauns, and fairies, vampires, boogymen? There are stories about them afterall. If it's in a book, mustn't it be true?

Whatever a person believes in with all his heart IS true....to THEM. So it doesn't make it wrong, just an opinion, which everyone is entitled to.

You should not therefore believe in your own hand since you cannot see it when the light is cut off.
You should not hold any value in gravity either, since you can only see the effects of gravity, but not gravity itself.
Ignorance by choice is called stupidity.
If you are still reading these replies than answer this. God said let there be light, and there was light, God saw the light and said that it is good.
Scientists have uncovered that you can create light photons through sound. This is now a scientific fact that sound can create light.
Furthermore God may not be measurable. If God were measurable and existed he would not be God, because the God you are referring to is indeed immeasurable. The Intelligent design theory states that the universe is too complex to have been created by nothing.
proposed that if one were to make the assumption that ID were correct than certain things, or all of the things in the universe would work mechanically, meaning that ice ages would occur around the same time, orbits of comets asteroids and planets would follow a predictable pattern and so on. Using these ideas one could make a prediction about a event presumed to be mechanical such as an ice age, and make a prediction as to when the next one is to occur.
So we have the following:
1.Observation, "The universe is too advanced to come out of nothing.
2. Description, "Entire ID theory"
3. predictions or test, "make predictions about presumptuously mechanical events and view the statistics of past events (eg every winter in Nebraska it will snow at least once)
4.Falsifiable, "There are other theories that make less assumption (Occam's' razor argument takes hold.)
5. Identification of causes. God or creator causes Universe
6. Coveration of events, Effects of the mechanical and predictable events are a result of a God or creator
7. Time order relationship, God or creator existed first in order to create the universe. A universe that can be observably mechanical, and therefore fall in lines with a mind behind the madness if you will.
I understand this appears incomplete. I kind of shorthanded it to save time as I have somewhere I need to be.
Last note.
God or a godlike figure has existed since the beginning of time. There has been no facts to state otherwise. Therefore when you come to say that God doesn't exist you, not us have the burden of proof to show us that he does not exist. This is because your opposing notion is younger than ours and to make your statement valid you must have proof.
Lastly you are using inductive reasoning in your argument....which isn't even an argument at all, but really an abrasive statement based on garbage you conjured up from the depths of your mind. Also it shows that God holds more ground than you would like to admit. This is because the argument that you resorted to was ridiculous. You are asking the ones who believe in God if they also believe in mythical beings. What if they say yes?
Have they proved that there is no God? I hope that you are not in any kind of teaching position because your reasoning is atrocious at best.
No matter how you slice it, no matter who you think is wrong. THE BEST CONCLUSION YOU CAN EVER COME TO IS THAT YOU JUST DO NOT KNOW.

a rhetorical question from a bitter and stupid person. how original. oh well, i'm already here anyway.
if you believe you are an atheist, does it mean you are intelligent? after all, there are intelligent atheists, mustn't it be true?
no. here's why:
atheists tend to use LOGIC to prove a point. you removed critical thinking from your supposed equation, which is key in proving the validity of any theory.
Atheism - a logical choice (and so obviously not the one you are making)
A**holism - a more likely choice based on the evidence presented
ps - no one gives a crap about your stapler. now finish your diet coke and get back to your cubicle milton.

All of creation become cursed, no longer merely Earth. although asteroids are "organic" also they're undesirable. because the creation become stated "very solid" then asteroids, sin and demise got here after the autumn and this stuff are genuine. certain, we stay in a universe that has organic guidelines; that were created. as far as conversing snakes bypass, i am going to guess you have not neglected an episode of Twilight.

The only test for athiest to find out if your foolishness is correct is after you die. If ever you wake up one day from death and see your creator about to judge you for yur foolishness - will you be able to know how foolish or not you were.
But the consequences are eternal which is unfathonably long compared to this short life for which you live. Your best hope is that you never wake up.

All of the those magical creatures are products of man's imagination. God, as far as we have found, did not create any magical creatures in the universe.

No, but the Bible was made before people became stupid. If I wrote a book that said "You're a catholic" that would be untrue because it's obvious you're a basterd who wants to start wars with catholics.

I don't believe in any deities but I still consider myself a scion of Fenrirwulf and a bastard son of Sekhmet.
Does this meet with your approval? Yes, no?
How are we to earn respect if you show none?

I am the choir, preacher-man.
That said, how is this more convincing than, "1000 babies died yesterday - proving that there is no God". Or that God likes it when babies die...
I recommend more subtlety.
