Are you 100 percent positive there isnt a God?

Question

For those of you who dont believe in God, are you 100 percent, without a doubt, NO chance of being wrong, positive there is no God? Can there be a chance, even a small one, that there is a God, and you just dont know it? What percentage are you positive that there isnt a God?

Answer 1

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Answer 2

I'm not 100% positive there isn't a god. I'm just 100% positive that the god described in the Hebrew Bible (Old Testament) isn't real.

Take a real close look at the Hebrew Bible and compare it to other culture's myths. Think carefully about what an all-powerful and supposedly loving god would really be like, and ask yourself which seems more likely: 1) Jehovah is real, and exactly as described, or 2) Jehovah is just a mythical god, much like the the Greek, Roman, or Norse mythical gods.

I don't waste a single moment wondering if Jehovah is real. That possibility seems entirely ludicrous to me.

Answer 3

God doesn't exist. The only thing that is existent is the miracle of life. Our brains are to small to understand th complexities of the universe and all that is within its realms. A good example of this would be to fully explain the concept of infinity. The fact of the matter is that God is our word to describe / understand why we even exist. Quantum physics support this, at the end of the day we are all made from the matter of stars, that is gas and matter. fullstop. You will find many similarities between current day religions and their underlying concepts and focus of worship and ideals. The ironic thing is that past cultures who steeped their faith towards the sun were closer to the truth then we ever will be. The biggest business in the world is the church dont be a sucker consumer and have your life choices dictated to. You live once, play hard, enjoy experience, savour as many tastes as you can and know that we are but evolved animals. Thus only one law; the law of Survival - eat or be eaten. Compare the parrables of this concept to the functioning of the sun on a chemical / atomic level and there is no difference. This I am 100% sure of. Sorry if this info. is upseting to you, but my advise is to live your life to the fullest every breathing moment and be thankful that evolution has enabled you to be able to be born with an evolved brain that can actually think into these things. just imagine that you were a frog, not much of a future there hey?!

Answer 4

I'm an agnostic atheist; while I think it's not possible to know for certain whether a god exists, the complete lack of evidence makes the only reasonable conclusion one of disbelief about that existence.

I am also not 100% without a doubt, NO chance of being wrong, positive that leprechauns are make-believe--but I think I'm pretty safe in saying that they're not real either.

Answer 5

No. I am almost certain there is not a god, but I'm still open-minded. The possibility that a god or gods exist is so small that it is not currently worth serious consideration. This is the definition of "fact" by the way.

And thus, I am an atheist.

Please note the word "currently" above -- it means that with new evidence, the possibility that god or gods exist, might become more reasonable.

Answer 6

No i think about 1 2 or 3%. Which is still a large percentage. However i am 100% sure it is not the God of the Jews, Christians, Hindus, or Muslims.

Answer 7

No, I'm not 100% certain that there isn't a god, nor am I 100% certain that there is. I believe that there is some spiritual component to human life, but that it is not possible for us to know what that is. I believe that this unknowing makes people anxious, and the anxiety gets to the point at which people are willing to admantly cling to a set of beliefs which are screamingly illogical and stridently contrary to facts, merely for the sake of giving themselves the illusion that they know "god."

Because of the illogical nature of these beliefs, the people who invest in these beliefs harbor, in their heart of hearts doubts which they do not acknowledge and drum into silence with ritual and repititious prayer, thus reinforcing their beliefs.

This ritual and repetition becomes a cyst around what was once a spiritual truth, and along with the encrustation of dogma and "orthodoxy," suffocates the spiritual and replaces it with a hollow shell.

This shell we call "religion," and try to persuade ourselves that our little religions are big enough to contain the infinite.

Answer 8

Each year I'm closer to 100% than the year before. I was hoping that by coming in here someone could prove to me that there is a God, but everyone has made very weak attempts. If this is the best I can hope for, I'll be reaching 100% very soon. Better hurry, people.

Answer 9

Are you 100 percent positive there is no Odin?

For those of you who don't believe in Odin, are you 100 percent, without a doubt, NO chance of being wrong, positive there is no Odin? Can there be a chance, even a small one, that Odin exists, and you just don't know it? What percentage are you positive that Odin doesn't exist?

Answer 10

Like a DNA test, I'm 99.999% sure there isn't a God, at least not one anthropomorphic entity that created the universe and concerns itself with the everyday workings of you and me. I do think that some type of force or action had to set the universe in motion, but to say I know anything about the nature or intentions of that force would be too presumptuous.

Of course, I still factor in a 0.001% chance of me being wrong.

Answer 11

Of course not, silly goose. I'd put the probability of her existence somewhere around 2-3%. Right next to Zeus, Wotan, and the Great Juju at the Bottom of the Sea.

I think very few atheists would say much different. In fact, I'm willing to bet that very nearly 60% of the people who believe themselves to be agnostic are, in fact, atheists.
