How can an unbeliever say "God does not exist" when he has spoken to millions of people throughout history?

Question

How can you deny his existence when it's been recorded God has spoken to the chosen people?
Atheism would be taken more seriously if God never spoke to anyone.

I am speaking to you through this internet. I don't exist?

Answer 1

Atheists don't think. They say they are being scientific, and there is no scientific study concerning God's existence. So it's not what they say it is.

Besides, they even admit that there is a slight chance that God does exist, somewhere in the many decimals that they quote
( as if they would even know that without assuming much!) , which would make them actually Agnostics. But like I said, they don't have to think, so we will call them Atheists so they won't cry.

Answer 2

How can people deny the Pagan Gods exist when they have spoken to millions of people and still do today?

Once you get the answer to that one, you'll realize where the Atheists stand on this.

Speaking to us through the internet does not mean you exist. Bots are made for this sort of thing... that doesn't make the Bot a Human.

Answer 3

I'm sorry, where is your proof that these people were actually talking to a god? Where's the proof that they weren't mentally ill or *gasp* just plain lying.

Hold on a sec, The Goddess just spoke to me, and She says your god is just a low class misogynistic hack who's only in it for his own amusement. According to your reasoning, you shouldn't deny Her, because She has spoken to people and it's been recorded. Furthermore, since your god appears to have lied about being the only one, it calls a lot of his other claims into question.

Christians might be taken a bit more seriously if you didn't associate with them anymore.

And by the way, some stupid comment appearing on the Internet does not actually confirm the existence of the Idiot that allegedly posted it.

Answer 4

You are assuming that the people whom God spoke to are telling the truth. Perhaps God speaks to us everyday... and perhaps the people who spoke with god are crazy. It's like saying jesus was persecuted for saying he was the son of god.... well now a days what do we do when someone says they are a prophet of god.... we call them a cult and end up killing them.
You can not make a statement that God does not exist with the evidence of "he's talked to people, there for he is real" if you want to get respect and make an intelligent argument, next time try talking about how you think evolution is foolish or another semi valid point. Instead of making the argument with a point that is biased. You are not going to convince an atheist that God exists because he has spoken to people... you are going to convince them that you are an idiot and that those people are crazy for thinking they have been spoken to by "god." Next you will be getting anti psychotic medicine for your voices.... wrap up to my rant..... make a better argument.

Answer 5

Many gods have supposedly spoken to men, but some religions say that their deity is the only real one. Did Ahuramazda, Baal, Marduk, Yu Ti, Zeus, Odin, etc., etc. speak to people? You surely say these gods are not real, but yours is. Well, an atheist knows that no gods are real. If any gods have spoken to people, these gods were illiterate imbeciles. If a deity created the universe, he would not be so ignorant about it as we see in holy books. It is men who claim to speak for gods who wrote these so-called holy books. These men were ignorant, and so their gods were ignorant too. Gods tell men to pay their priests. The whole thing is just a con game. No gods ever spoke to anyone, so atheism is taken seriously by men who are objective and think deeply. I do not know who you are. i know someone is writing something I see here, but you copuld lie about who you are. I have never heard gods speak. If I believed I did, I'd see a psychiatrist. Only insane men and con men claim gods speak to them. You cannot believe everything you hear.

Answer 6

Actually you do exist you are sitting or standing typing this question out are you not?
To answer your question that still does not prove he exists.
All the people that say God has spoken to could all be schizophrenic.And before you give me thumbs down, how do you know for sure they were not? Is there a psychological profile on these people?

Answer 7

The difference is that given the right circumstances, we could have Yahoo trace where you posted from (IP) contact the provider and find you.

On the other side, millions of believers in different gods have also heard their god talk to them or have seen their spirit guide etc. You could wave this off as demons or Satan but face it so could they. This is one of the reasons why personal experience is not counted as evidence.

Edit:
By the way the Goddess just spoke to me too, she's really on the ball today.

Answer 8

We all know generallly how the internet works, your question implying that is similar to divine revelation is faulty, because divine revelation is only based on the faith of a person who believes he has had supernatural communication. What somebody believes that God has spoken to them is not proof of God's existence, it is still an opinion and a belief. The internet is based on provable science and we see this proof millions of times a day by millions of people.

The existence of God is still based on faith, and the proof and results of this "proof" only satisfies the person who believes it, because a non-believer would have a different opinion of your "proof".

Answer 9

the chosen people?? I am one of those people who need to have the proof. Unless "God" has spoke to me directly.....Im not buyin it. Of course you exist..people can see you and communicate with you...... but on the otherhand.. I don't recall the last time I had a conversation with "God"....When you exist you are able to go places with people, see them, and talk to them.....can you honestly say that you can do that with"God"??....I know religious people, and they say that they dont have to see "God" to know his existence....that makes no sense to me....Its pretty much like a grown up having an imaginary friend. I hope this helps you understand from another perspective.

Answer 10

God never spoke to anyone.

Your argument would work better if it weren't based on a false assumption.

"I am speaking to you through this internet. I don't exist? "

You exist. Donald Duck isn't speaking to me through the internet. He doesn't exist. Neither does God.

It's amazing that you're so able to ignore that basic fact.
