Prove to me your a atheist?

Question

You can not Prove to me you do not believe in God

Answer 1

Then why try?

Your mind is made up. I actually think you have strong doubts about God, but are unwilling to face them.

Are we at a stand-off?

Your statement says a lot more about your intransigence and irrationality than it does about the quality of any argument presented to you. I am perfectly capable of being convinced that there is a God, given convincing evidence. I have yet to see any such evidence, and the evidence against it is overwhelming. However, I would never say that I cannot be convinced. That would be closed-minded and arrogant.

(By the way, the correct grammar is, "Prove to me that you're an atheist," not "Prove to me your a atheist." Using poor grammar makes you appear poorly educated and impulsive.)

Answer 2

"Prove" to you, lad, that I 'do not believe in a god?' Since the age of 9, in backward Georgia, I identified myself openly as an atheist. It did not increase my popularity, believe me. I had already stood and raised a fist on matters of Jim Crow and state-sanctioned hate. But it was the atheism that aroused the white folks. I was a strong kid, a smart kid, and if you bothered me, I'd bother you back, big-time. I left Georgia and the South on the day I turned 17. It is simply what I am, I do not believe that any gods exist, that they ever have, that they ever will. I'm perfectly at home with it, and because of the world I am in, the performing arts, I face no retributions of any sort. Be well, lad, and I'm sorry, I guess, that I can't provide 'proof.' I am what I am, and that is it.

Answer 3

And you can not prove to me that you DO believe in God.

Answer 4

You're right, I can't prove that I don't believe in God no more than you can prove to me you do. I can't prove a lot of things, I can't prove or disprove:
- Thor
- Poseidon
- The Invisible Flying Pink Unicorn
- Russel's Celestial Teapot
- Santa Claus
- My being abducted by aliens every night while I sleep

Even though they can't be disproved, it is reasonable not to believe in these things because there is no evidence for them.

Answer 5

And you don't have to prove you do believe in God. You just have to prove God.

Answer 6

Prove to me you do believe in god?

What could I do to possibly prove it to you? Why would I want to anyway?

Get over it. Someone doesn't believe in your god, just accept it and don't be so angry about it.

Answer 7

You can do all the epidemiological double talk you want. No one can prove anything in Philosophy unless making reasonable assumptions.

There are plenty of people walking around who cannot see the first shred of evidence that requires this to be anything but a purely naturalistic universe and that believe that it is.

Answer 8

I kinda like this question - it really reveals the problem that so many believers have.

In the other version he asked, he wrote "It is totally impossible not to believe in a God". I suspect that many believers feel that way. They're simply incapable of imagining that there might not be a god - so much so that they don't even feel that they have to point out that they feel this way.

Isn't that remarkable? It's almost the perfect illustration of "narrowmindedness".

Answer 9

Fine by me. If you can't conceive of a different perspective from what you hold there isn't any point is there?

You cannot prove to me that you believe in God--we're even.

Answer 10

do you even know what an atheist is?...I or everyone can't disprove your god, but I could prove to you that atheist existed i.e. animals,plants, non-living things AND RICHARD DAWKINS. I'll be that you are also atheistic towards Zeus, The FSM, Allah, Vishnu, fairies, Thor, Invisible Pink unicorn, etc....Believing has nothing to do with reality, I could believe that fairies exist and it still doesn't make fairies real.
