Simple, because the statement or the claim "God exists" is untrue. Its only the irrationality and the ignorance of humans that this untrue statement is given validity
AneurysmXX as a fellow atheist (and a student of physics) I must say your argument is flawed. There is no evidence against a deity, just significant issues with modern day religious doctrine.

+Brandon Collins LOL, even cops will tell you Eye Witness Testimony is the most unreliable pieces of information. The brain fucks with you, in fact you can go speak to a neurosurgeon about it, since I'm not an expert here but I pretty much know that the brain see things you're not really seeing when you're unconscious. And how do you explain other people's near death experiences, that are from different religions, for instance a Muslim dying and coming back will be a way different story than a Christian version of dying and coming back... come on mate simple fucking LOGIC! (If you want the Muslim story tell me I'll link it)
No need to link it, I will link you s video that I was talking about in the earlier. And the neurosurgeon even agreed there is something supernatural out there based on what happened with the person that was operated on. I'll send you the link now.
Brandon Collins I won't need it, but answer my question how do you explain other peoples near death experiences that are from different religious backgrounds, and they supposedly see their God, and not a God from Christianity.
My argument revolves around the link I posted earlier. If you aren't going to watch I don't see a reason to even have a rational debate with you. If you watch the video I will happily destroy your point.
Im a christian and watching this I realize that I'm more in a learning stance than an offended one. Alot of christians would be mad right now but I feel like im in a lecture.

Because he committed genocide, infanticide, he destroyed humanity, he lies that we have free will yet all this us supposedly part of his plan, because he says to kill homosexusls yet claims to love everybody. Because he blamed us for adhering to what he intended. Because he's narcissistic, petulant and hypocritical.
I think God is a purely human construct. Many eons ago, early humans stopped physically adapting to their environment and starting adapting the environment to their needs by creating things (shelter, tools, weapons, clothing). So early humans are designers and creators of objects, we have the capacity to imagine. So eventually humans think, who makes the thunder and lightning? who makes the sea? who makes the trees? Humankind is a creator, and because of this mindset we assume that everything was created by a consciousness- so we imagine the god of the wood, the god of the sea, the god of thunder and lightning. Eventually this polytheistic version is morphed in to the idea of an all powerful creator god and monotheism is born a few thousand years later. Humans survive and advance by making things so we assume that we have a maker. Maybe the universe wasn't made by an all powerful being with a fully formed ego and consciousness- maybe the universe just IS.
It doesn't even have to be eons if you think about it. Scientology just made up the Lord Xenu, that supposedly exist for millions of years. And this believe is how old ? 25 years? The fact that a grown man like Tom cruize can be preyed upon and converted like that, proves to me that humans are inherently sheep who will believe anything (without question) if their mind is molded hard enough in moments of weakness. Also our ability to lie to ourselves isn't helping either.
We know God does not exist because he is a character in a fictional book. To say I don't know whether god exist is the same as saying I don't know if Spiderman exist because I cannot prove he doesn't exist. God is a character in a book with a talking snake, a talking donkey , a book in which walking sticks turn into snakes and many other obviously fictional events .How can you extract a real person from such a book. If the world has a creator that creator is not God he is something else.We know human being write books and the bible is a product of human imagination.There is no room for being agnostic and say I do not whether God exists. Without the bible there is no God and the bible was created by man therefore man created God. God does not exist outside the book, hence no answered prayers.

+wedzistar1 Mistake #1 of proving or disproving a "god" = Assuming a specific religion. Obviously a book can not prove there is a god, but using logic, can you prove there is not a being not bound by space and time, that is infinite, and created the Universe.

Where is it and where is your proof moron. Shouting will not change a lie into a truth. You have to convince yourself there is something that you have no evidence for. All you have are stories by people you do not know. Wake up from childhood indoctrination.
one of my classmates said that he believed that if a person breaks an arm, leg or something else, and then pray to god, god would heal the broken limb, then i asked if i could break his arm so he could prove it. After that he said that i couldn't, and i said, "well then you have no evidence for it"

Actually agnostic atheist is accurate terminology, because they are 2 completely different categories. Agnostic means.... we have no ability prove that supernatural gods exist, say nothing of assume. Atheist means one does not believe in gods or deities due to zero scientific evidence backing this man made theory up. Both of these categories, require courage, intelligence, logic and critical thinking. I am in both categories, but I always defer to the terms of atheist or non theist, because the word agnostic is often misconstrued. Science and logic are my only truth and reality. Outside of that, it is just wishful magical machinations.
I’m a Christian, and I enjoy watching your videos. People always think that Christians get triggered and start hating you because of what you’re saying, they should not be doing that. I myself don’t believe in evolution and atheism but that doesn’t mean I’m not going to like you. I don’t dislike your videos and I think you’re a brilliant and smart guy. People are always given the wrong impression of Christians because of many Christians who are not very good. I just want to tell everyone here that Christians love you and if anyone that says they are Christian and acts the opposite, they are not Christian. Real Christians love you and we don’t treat you like rubbish. I certainly don’t. Many of us don’t. I’m sorry to hear that a lot of people hear from the nasty fake Christians.

Hi Samuel, No one should push anyone to believe in the Lord. Any more than the Lord doesn't shove food down into your belly. Didn't He say, come unto Me, all you who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give rest.

@@danielcowan87 Hi, Daniel. I am very happy to know that you are still thinking about the issue of salvation. Daniel, I have found Him very long ago, back in 1977. So, now it is your time to seek and to find Him. The Holy Bible said, he who seek God shall find Him. Or, who so ever call upon Him shall find Him. Daniel, as you repent of your sins as I have with my sins, the Lord will show you that you have done the right thing. Call upon Him with your whole heart, then He will make Himself made know to you. I hope this will help you, for I want to see you in His kingdom above. Thank you.
HMK, you are imagining too hard. The first thing first is to earnestly repent of your sins before Him. When you truly mean it from your heart, then He will make Himself known to you. Also, go to TH-cam and type in Adrian Rogers's sermons to hear. This pastor has gone home long ago. But his fine messages are really worth listening to. Thank you.

I think most religious people know god isn't real. Every time I see someone trying to defend god, they get tongue tied and awkward. They try to say stuff that god has done for them, but I see them cringe as they try to believe their own lies. It's only a matter of time before the world is free from organized religion. Only a matter of time...
Faith, do you know the difference between God and god? The God is the One who is the creator of the universe. And god is reference to the Satan. The one who has blinded your eyes. Go to the 2 Cor. 4:3-4. Seek Him while He maybe found.
To be honest, I´ve never really understood the relevence of this question. Is it not the very definition of "believing in something" that you actually have no physical evidence of its existence but believe in it anyway? I mean if you had hard evidence, would it not then become knowledge?
But a rock exploding, coming to life and accidentally mutating into human beings over billions of years of magicly surviving is provable science. Gotcha.
@@gennymikel4296 just because you don't understand the theories behind something does not make it untrue. For example.

And you can take this to anything someone doesn't understand. I don't know why people believe in religion, but just because I don't understand it doesn't mean it doesn't exist. Maybe instead of trying to refute something you have no knowledge of, you should learn about said thing.
The angels stood before the shepherd and the shepherds didn't have hallucinations. 2,000 years ago the Lord Jesus stood before a lot of people but they didn't have those illicit drug feelings either. what's up with you, Masol?
The Atheists Claim That EVERYTHING Is A Hallucination. They Also Claim That Their LIFE Is A Hallucination. You Also Need A Programmer To Program The Brain To Hallucinate.
But hallucinations are not shared. So either the early followers of Christ- who said they saw Him alive after he'd been crucified, and were tortured and killed for it- were lying, or they were telling the truth. There is no third option.
The Bible says in John 3:16-36 that whoever believes in the Lord Jesus Christ shall not perish but have everlasting life, the Bible also says in Romans 10:9 that those who declare with their mouth that Jesus Christ is their God, Lord, and Savior they shall be saved. Revelation 1:8 says that Jesus is the alpha and the omega. Luke and revelation is the ending times, and Jesus is returning back. So are you going to submit your life to him or no? Narrow is the path that leads to the gates of heaven, but only few people find it. The gates that is the path to destruction is where many people find it! Jesus loves you SO MUCH!

@@poweroftruth9258 yeah sure but, the bible can be disproven by simply saying. you have no soul. you are a brain controlling a sack of bones, meat, skin, organs and muscles. and your actions are decided by that brain. a soul is just a way that people back then believed we controlled our bodies. we now know that it is just a brain.
@@poweroftruth9258 You see, I believe that God is evil for creating sin. Let me tell you why. Think about it, an ALMIGHTY being creates us, humans. The almighty being, aka God, knows our desires, knows our needs, and gives us free will. Now imagine some of God's creations, aka humans, disobey God. Because God is all wise, he should be able to understand how humans perceive the world and thus, be not bothered by their disbelief. When the unbelievers die, God should simply show himself to the unbelievers and calmly explain that he's real. Since he's all loving and knows human nature, he should be able to understand and respect free will of his own creation. God is a loving being who knows every single nook and cranny of his creation, as such he shouldn't be offended if people down believe in him, after all, it's their choice. Sounds like a good world to me! Now I want you to tell me, does god have any logical reason to create sin? … No, zero. There is absolutely NO reason as to why a loving all knowing being would condemn a simple mortal to eternal torture for disbelief. Also, you can tell me “Sin is a result of free will” Okay… God can just not consider free will a sin and be done with it? Why make sin? What purpose does it serve other than the threat of eternal damnation? Well, I'm assuming he's real, he's not, but you get the Idea.
I like good fiction too, fantasy is a good thing. But i like reality more, that's why i don't like it when people insist their fiction is actually true, like religious people do. The Bible has proven wrong many many many times, beside that millions of people still insist everything inside their book is real, they are ignoring all the evidence and ignore reality
The Holy Bible is the living word of God. There is none other book is like it. Many people just know by nature that the Lord has made us as He has said. Like seeing how your body is made. It really doesn't take a genius to know Him. Furthermore, when we call upon His name, He said you can be saved. More specifically "Who so ever call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved". One who created so many religions in this world is the Devil. His purpose is to confuse us so that we would not choose the real life-saving God of heaven. He is the One who has given us the Holy Bible. So, focus on this Book and through the Church that you may grow thereby. I hope to see you in heaven, soon. Thank you.
How can you not know Him, Schiwi? You have been eating and drinking and breathing His air since your birth and not knowing the Lord exists? You don't want to be called a stupid, do you? Think even with logic by reading and hearing His voice that is in the Holy Bible. Then your understanding will come to you and you will have peace of God rules your heart too. Experience it, He is the living Lord! See you in His kingdom above, Schiwi. Thanks.
My conclusion so far is that people made religion so they can give answers about the things that they can't answer logically. And it's so hard for religious people to accept that because they rather think there's a higher power than start to think. Thanks for your videos.
Facts, I think they have “god” is to have hope until their end in time. They look forward to the “afterlife” but I don’t think their is. We are animals living, you look at the food chain and we are just animals processing the food chain.
Heliak4042...that's EXACTLY what I tell people when I'm asked if i believe in God. I say yes....and no. Do I believe that there is a spiritual being, who's origins and motivations cannot be explained, and who brought each one of us into existence (against our will, mind you. No one asks to be born.) without any explanation as to why or what we're supposed to do with this physical life? No. Do I believe that God exists because we created him as a means to answer questions we cannot answer ourselves, and as a source of comfort and strength in times of crisis? Yes.
The oldest most evil scam is to tell people that they're born in sin and there's a better place after death, but to be saved a spot they must repent and believe the story that someone was sacrificed 2000 years ago to forgive their sins.
Yeah, the IDEA of god is great to keep people with consistent morals, but god itself is a fallacy. It’s also funny that people come after us for not believing. Like who WOULDN’T want eternal life with an all-loving god to be real? It’s just not real tho
This is a very common belief. But it's true that it's much easier to believe there is no god- and do whatever you want- than the believe there is a God who will judge righteously. The great scientists in the age of enlightenment, like Isaac Newton, believed there was a god (as did most people throughout history). To suppose that every human being who ever believed in God never even bothered to "start to think" is incredibly arrogant, not to mention illogical.
I hold to a belief that is in opposition to yours, but I would just like to say real quick that I like the way you argue your point. Unlike many people I hear you argued logically, and didn't just result to insult throwing. Very respectable.

That's wrong. You can prove certain propositions don't exist. For example we know that married bachelors don't exist. By the law of self contradiction, we can prove universal negatives. That being said, atheism is the proposition that God does not exist. Yes, you heard me. Philosophers do agree that a psychological state is too broad of a definition and anyways that title belongs to agnostics. By your definition, babies, animals are all atheists, which is not a good definiton. Thus, we stick to three basic types of belief - theism, agnosticism, and atheism. Hope this answers your question :)
Xavy Johnson Tomy I think the most common problem comes with the ''super natural'' tag as it feels like an escape from common rules of logic. Here's an example situation without the use of religion, that has kinda the same point as Jonathan made, I think. Suppose I say, I can fly. Someone says, no you cannot, to which I say yes I can, followed by *prove that I can't fly*. That is impossible to prove, beyond the fact that humans cannot fly, which is a fine argument. But then if I say my capability of flight is a *super natural* ability that defies mere earthly capabilities, and is a true miracle. You cannot disprove it, even though it's a load of shit, pardon the language. Here ofcourse is the point where the rightfully suspecting person knows that the burden of proof is on the claiming side, and asks him to fly, or to somehow prove that I have this super natural capability to fly, since it is impossible. To which I say you *just have to believe. * Arguing this is pointless as it doesn't follow the rules of reality. You (atleast most of the time) cannot prove a negative, which I think, if I understood correctly, was the point Jonathan was trying to make.
Xavy Johnson Tomy _" By your definition, babies, animals are all atheists, which is not a good definiton."_ Why not? It has a perfect correspondence with normal words like "homeless" that nobody has any problem understanding. I submit that people who can't grasp the context involved here are so retarded that they might also object to your claim that you can prove that married bachelors don't exist on the grounds that they just flat out refuse to understand what you mean by bachelor. In any case, that babies are atheists is actually not a problem because babies are just an early stage of human development and they employ the same natural epistemic standards for automatic learning that adults do - which includes the rational principle that existential claims are assumed to be false until evidence suggests otherwise. You are perfectly rationally justified in being an atheists without ever having heard about the concept of god for the same reason you're perfectly rationally justified in not believing in an infinity of other bullshit there's no evidence for. You might possibly be wrong, but you're certainly going with the most probable hypothesis when you assume nonexistence in the absence of evidence and therefore it's a rational decision.
Xavy Johnson Tomy Marriage and Bachelors are man made categorizations. The existence of something is not. But I digress, please prove that Unicorns don't exist.
Pardon? I didn't make an assertion, I made a request. I asked the poster to prove that Unicorns don't exist. The point I was making is that you can not disprove the existence of something. He was trying to use a logic pretzel to say that you could. Analogy: There are many, many people who believe in the Loch Ness monster (or Nessie for short). We don't look at the non-believers and say "Prove that Nessie doesn't exist!" as that would be absurd. Additionally, I made no points about a god, as I don't perceive there to be any point to god to begin with.

Boy you people who don't believe in God sure are choosy about how God should have done things. This is a new one on me. Even assuming it's fiction, as you have, isn't life immeasurably more complex than non-life; the complex chemistry of a self-sustaining organism (which scientists can't make in labs to this day, hard as they try) incredibly more intricate than a ball of burning gas or a rock floating in a vacuum? And all that aside, why shouldn't an all-powerful God take three days to do what He pleases, and one to do something else? You are trying to invent a god that is not much of a god at all, instead of addressing the God of the Bible- who you're referencing.

I can never figure out why theist claim God would never prove he exist because we need to have faith - but then at the first opportunity claim God did this good thing - and that therefore proves he's real!
Allow me to help you, though you could just read the Bible yourself to find out how the God of the Bible operates and why. Here is one example of how God deals with people's belief- there are of course many other instances: " When Jesus had said these things, he departed and hid himself from them. Though he had done so many signs before them, they still did not believe in him, so that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled: “Lord, who has believed what he heard from us, and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?” Therefore they could not believe. For again Isaiah said, “He has blinded their eyes and hardened their heart, lest they see with their eyes, and understand with their heart, and turn, and I would heal them.” Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory and spoke of him. Nevertheless, many even of the authorities believed in him, but for fear of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God." Here's something else that shines light on your question about belief and the God of the Bible making himself known: "For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things. Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen." If you ever wonder anything about the God of the Bible, look for yourself. If you really want to know, that is.
I was raised that way. To blindly believe and it's blasphemy to question. My experience in a "Christian" school, was pure hell! It was like brain washing and religion forcefully pushed on you by staff and simultaneously in the curriculum.
What about the brain washing of LGBTQ and liberal agendas being forcefully pushed onto children? I hope you find Jesus. Remember, if you knock, the door will be answered.
@@baconjr5658 So you take some good things out of Christianity but why don’t you take it all? Why don’t you accept what Jesus Christ did for you? He loves you and died for your sins.
I think I may have accidentally proven that the Christian/Jewish/Muslim versions of God do not exist mathematically. All three of these versions define God in part as a being of infinite power who created the Earth. But it just occurred to me to ask, "How easy would it be for a being of infinite power to create something finite, like the Earth?" The answer to that would be that it would be too easy, literally, meaning that he couldn't do it because it was too easy. The reason is this: If someone's power is infinite, then what percentage of that power would be needed to create something finite? And the answer is simply: Too small. Even 0.000001% of infinity is still infinity when you look at infinity mathematically. So even if we ignored the fact that creating something of infinite energy would instantly create a black hole so dense that everything in the universe would already be inside of it, what would be created could only have an infinite value of energy. The Earth is big, but still finite, and to create a finite amount from an infinite power would require an infinitesimal amount of effort. Now, you could go on to say that God is infinitely subtle, since he would have to be in order to make something that is not infinite, but if God was infinitely subtle, he could use as much power as he wanted, and he still would not be able to make anything occur. I think an easier way to visualize this is to think back to the lunar landing. When the first astronauts were being trained to walk on the moon in a low gravity simulator, they had to retrain their muscles to be more subtle to compensate for the lower gravity, since using their normal amount of power for a step made their leg just go up and up and they couldn't complete the step. Now, if they had an infinite amount of power, then it wouldn't matter how subtle they were trying to be, they wouldn't even be able to complete one single step. And there you have it. Mathematical proof that the Christian/Jewish/Muslim versions of God are not real.
I too enjoyed your reasoning, although i disagree with it. Lets get started off by saying that anyone in their right mind who has read the Christian/Muslim/Jewish creation story already knows it is inconsistent with reality, and therefore wrong within reality. But a being with infinite power creating the universe is still theoretically possible. I thought of a mathematical line, and infinitely long, infinitely thin strand of points stretching for all eternity. Although it would be impractical to use such a large thing to do even the most basic of mathematical operations, we often use parts, or segments, of lines to show measurements, graph information and generally organize ourselves when dealing with shapes. So, if humans can take an infinitely long, impractical tool, and separate it into manageable, practical, pieces, infinitely less than 1%, could not other things do it too?
Contingency Plan Well, you are correct in your mathematical reasoning, but even though we don't know if the universe is infinite in size, but we know that the universe has been around for a finite amount of time. Time is a subtlety that is nearly always lost on creationists, so I don't expect them to pick up on it. Since we know that the universe has finite time, we know it has finite space. The reason is because of what scientists are calling "now slices". This is basically the property of time to be influenced by the directionality of moving objects in relation to each other. Let me give you an example. If you and I were standing a few meters apart, and I started walking towards you, my "now" would be slightly in your future, and if i walked away from you, my "now" would be slightly in your past. The separation of time would be increased if we were standing further apart. The reason this means that the universe is finite in size is because if an object is moving, then its past now slice cannot extend back through time an infinite distance. If there was infinite room for a now slice to cut back through time, it could cut back up to 20 billion years, which is a span of time that we know has not existed.
Um... I don't understand how this disputes a god with infinite power. Although I don't believe in any god, I was using an analogy to describe the flaws in your previous statement, playing "Devil's Advocate" if you will. I don't comprehend what you mean to dispute in my argument. If you are using it to prove that something with infinite distance could not exist, I agree, but I was using it as a theoretical analogy anyway, so....?
disprove unicorns, disprove santa, disprove the toothfairy. You can't, yet religious people like everyone else don't believe they exist! but when it comes to god it's the same situation, so why do people happily believe he exists but not unicorns?
+The Christian Voice you have scientifical evidence that has passed through the scientific method many times to demonstrate the existence of the creator of this universe? and which creator is your creator?
You can’t believe in God and evolution. they disprove each other. I hope you find the true God and have a relationship with him and believe the Bible. God bless you and your day
Isn't it simple? If there were God and he helped the needy as stated by all theists, people would pay the 'priests' and 'Fathers' of the church and there would be no hospitals or such medical institutions. If one person believes in something, he's stupid. If many people believe in the same thing, its religion??? And if so, the term 'God' is a part of that religion.
You can’t disprove God. Nobody here sounds actually “smart” when you can’t even have an explanatory answer to your own beliefs. Which is why “I don’t know” is the most reliable answer whether what you think.
The statement "there is a god" is unfalsifiable. The statement "the god of the bible exists" is falsifiable and false, because we can demonstrate that the characteristics, propositions and evidence shown in the bible are contradictory with reality.
OK, someone answer this for me: When something good happens, thank you god; but if something bad happens, it's my (or someone else's) fault, god had nothing to do with it?
Hi Valley, All good things do come from the Lord. For the Lord God is good. But if you really want to know from the Lords perspective, why don't you repent of your sins. He will cleanse your heart and purify it for you, as a new beginning. You will be very glad that you did. This is the way we are born again, as the Lord Jesus was saying to man named Nicodemus (John Chapt. 3).
@@stevenbyun That didn't answer the question at all. You didn't even attempt to address why we don't assume supernatural causes when bad things happen.
Hi, Valley. Try reading the Book of Job in the Old Testament, why don't you? As with the born again Christians, we rely on the Lord with the all things. Whether it's good or bad, our trust is in the Lord, who sees over all things on the earth as well as over the universe that He has created. While we are dwelling here on the earth, we do not know everything that goes on here. So it's best to leave it up to the Lord to do that, for He is able. That's how we grew up, leaving all things for our Mom and Dad to handle all things, for they are able, huh? But when we get to go home to the Father, then we will get to know what we wanted to know while we were here. Repentance to salvation is what He has said! Do this and see for yourself, what He had said is not true? I hope to see you in heaven, where He is waiting for us to come. Thank you.
Hi Mentos, Sorry, maybe I got bit confused between you and the other person, when I was responding. You know, some of the good things as well as the bad things can happened supernaturally. I think there is no need for focusing on the bad things, when we can focus on the good things that can happened for us, because of the mercy of God for us. As an example, a sinners can be born again in Holy Gods mercy, is far better thing to pay our attention on. For many souls are being born again around the world everyday! Mentos, please go to your Bible and open to the Gospel of Luke 13:1-5. If you obey the Lord with your whole heart, and repent of your sins, you will experience the response from the living God of our founding fathers. Then you will be so glad that you did it! And my hope is to see you in His glorious heavenly kingdom!! Thank you.
As the Son Jesus has said that One is good, that is His Father. But Satan is evil! He is the one who tricked Eve in the Garden of Eden. Since he has become not only the enemy of God but he is also the enemy of mankind as well. Why is it that parents always teach their children to be good? Because if reinforcement is not there child will automatically go in the wrong direction. Even headed to hell direction. Here is a scripture verse I would like you to read for yourself, Proverbs 23:13. Go to the Church and hear the word of God. Or listen to the sermon through Christian broadcast, T.V. or radio. The Bible says the faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. When you are listening to the Word, God will give you a gift of faith. By faith, you will see yourself as the sinner, just as He has said. Then you repent of your sins before Him, He will forgive you and make you a new man. A child of Holy One. I hope to see you in His heavenly kingdom. Amen.
Some gods can be disproven in my opinion. The Abrahamic god, that is all knowing, all powerful and all loving is a contradiction. It is impossible to be those 3 attributes and yet allow evil to exist. Because of this, you can disprove some gods based on their descriptions. Like if I say "there's an invisible teapot orbiting earth" you can't disprove it but if I say "and it's made of 100% iron and 100% gold" then maybe the teapot is there, but _my_ teapot that is 100% iron and 100% gold doesn't. So it can be disproven.
thank you for being an example of humbleness The Atheist Voice :) I'm a Christian and I think the same way as you in this point We are all still figuring it all out.. let just walk step by step with our lives to find out about the truth. Why push your belief to other in order just become right?
Critical thinking atheists are about finding answers and not about giving answers. A lot of religions seem to be the polar opposite in that respect. That being true, isn't it really the responsibility of the religion give answers, to prove it's legitimacy, rather than the athiest's to disprove? (although they do try; bless 'em) The reason we haven't yet disproved any god's existence is because we are too busy finding our own answers. we get closer and closer every day; it might not be supernatural, but we know it will be right. That is exciting to me.
Hement Metta, (I hope I got that right) You make a very good point I also am an atheist, I have been since I was 6 yrs old and nobody could tell me where "god" came from, BUT could tell me what he said, what he wants, and how he wants me to live. I put this together with "nobody" knows what happens when you die" and nobody ever comes back from death, and it became obvious to me at a very young age that all these people were doing were comforting themselves with folklore and myths and legends that had no bases simply because they were afraid of the "unknown"!!!
But he is just one of the many people who consider themselves atheists, he as an individual is not representative of every single other person who refers to them self as an 'atheist'. If you met a woman named Christine, whose job is audio engineering, and she said to you 'hello, I'm Jewish', would you respond "but you work as an audio engineer..."? Just because Judaism doesn't mean Audio Engineering it doesn't mean she can't do that as well as deem herself Jewish.
Disproving God: A married bachelor cannot exist. An omnipotent God can create a married bachelor, therefore God cannot exist. If your rebuttal is "but God can change the laws of logic blablabla" the problem is that proof is a logical concept and thus can only exist within the realm of logic. Existence is also a concept that occurs inside the realm of logic (as you need logic to distinguish existence from non-existence). Changing the laws of logic lies outside the realm of logic and thus we do not need to take it into account when we prove something. This sort of proof would be accepted in mathematics (proof by contradiction) and is actually more powerful than any proof involving the physical world. BUT does that mean God does not exist? I am 100% sure God does not exist and it is impossible he exists but he can exist. This is because 100% sure and impossible are all logical concepts defined within the realm of logic, where God cannot exist. If the laws of logic somehow are "changed", then God can exist, but not in any definition that we can understand.
Russell Kumar "This question is based on a popular misunderstanding about the definitions of words like "almighty" or "omnipotent." These terms do not mean that God can do anything. Rather, they describe the amount of God's power. Power is the ability to effect change - to make something happen. God (being unlimited) has unlimited power, and the Bible affirms this (Job 11:7-11, 37:23; 2 Corinthians 6:18; Revelation 4:8; etc.). Therefore, God can do whatever is possible to be done. God cannot, however, do that which is actually impossible. This is because true impossibility is not based on the amount of power one has, it is based on what is really possible" God is subject to the laws of logic. Therefore the laws of logic are above God.
Oliver Li Ok the reason God can't make a married bachelor or a triangle square or a one sided stick, is because they are outside the laws of himself. If god can do anything logically possible and he IS the standard of logic, than no, he can't make a rock so big he can't lift it. It's outside of himself. It's logically impossible. That doesn't disprove god in any way. You find me something outside the laws of logic and I will become an atheist right now
Elijah Simerson What does that mean? That God is confined within the laws of logic? that's my problem. If God is confined by the laws of logic, then that means the laws of logic are above him. This counters the argument that Christians often give about how God is keeping the laws of logic and of nature the same. If he is subject to the laws of logic, then that cannot be the case.
Atheists want concrete evidence but God wants our faith. Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it. Jesus saith to him: Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and have believed. To those that believe in God no explanation is necessary, to those that don't believe in God no explanation is POSSIBLE.
I believe in God but not religion. We cannot see our conscience but some (not all) of us have one. You have one. God speaks to us through our conscience. He does not interfere as He gave us free will. You have a kind soul.
It's ironic that you would try to diminish the quality of ones life to better suit your own, considering this is what you feel Christians do by evangelism. I agree that some christians get it wrong. A lot more than others. However, don't ever let the actions of a few, reflect the entire populous. Some of these Christians come from a place of crazy love. Love is foundation of what Christianity is about. Unfortunately those Christians who follow their own agendas instead of God's, diminish the merits of this religion (and the people who do it right) for people like yourself. I respect your beliefs and will never say to you, "you gotta accept Jesus Christ as your savior or you're going to hell." Because truthfully, These Christians are in more danger of this fate than you. My job, my role in this body is to just present you with the information. I cannot change a man, for I am only a man, But it is God's job to change you. If I try to, I act as God's mouth, and turn you off from me AND Him. But the two commands God gives us that are greater than any other is "Love your God, with all of your strength, heart, and soul. And to Love your neighbor as yourself." If you satisfy one you will also satisfy the other. Unfortunately, this principle is lost because people cherry pick the rules that they feel like they agree with while omitting others that they don't. Herein lies the problem. I'm sorry for ranting, but a lot of Christians who do good for others to serve God, don't get a fair shake because of those who do it wrong. It's like saying all black people are killers and thieves. Or all Muslims are terrorists. It's just not true.
I am an atheist, but I agree with you. Being a former christian myself, of course you can't simply say that because one christian treated you unfairly, all of them are terrible people. That's called being stupid. However, there is a reason that we atheists don't believe in God, and I know for me, it's got nothing to do with how Christians have treated me. I love Christians, they're my friends, my family, I've grown up in church and I still attend (despite being an atheist). For me, it's the uncertainty of it all, the lack of evidence and the very faulty foundations of the bible and the existence of Jesus that brought me up to reality. I could be wrong, I'm still trying to work it out, but I am atheist. Who knows, maybe in 60 years when I am nearing death I will embrace some religion just because I actually believe it, but for now, that kind of outcome is looking to be very slim.
I hate how almost all Christians say "Some Christians got it wrong". no no no no no no no! You got it wrong. If you were a true Christian you would follow the book word for word. And you would then be the crazy guy on the streets throwing rocks at suspected gay people saying "GOD HATES GAY" then you would most likely get arrested and put in a crazy house. You dont even know your own religion. I am a former catholic and christian. I read and researched my own religion. Theres a reason i am atheist. Dont act like you have it right and the others dont. And you are wrong about the whole love thing. Jesus states "Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me." You are suppose to love Jesus more then anyone else. And loving him more then anyone means you dont care about anyone as much as him . So stoning gays is OKAY because you dont love them as much as you love jesus. This is only the tip of the iceberg. Learn your own religion bro. Mathew 10:37 www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=matthew+10:37
***** lol and you do? tell me and point out where i am wrong. And i will accept and publicly acknowledge at the point where i am wrong, but yet you have yet to post anything even remotely stating where i am wrong. I am open for anything and will consider everything you say and i will most likely prove to you that you are wrong with facts ;)
***** Concept? really ? dude. i asked for you to first of all back up your statement of "IF only you knew what you were talking about " and you did not. You totally avoided the question because i suspect you can not counter what i say. second i will counter what you just said. First you dont know what i do and dont understand. I hope you understand that. The concept of believing in your eyes i see as childish. Also the concept of believing is a quite simple concept to understand and i dont know how that even remotely relates to the debate. I am not saying you cant believe in what you want. And you cant deny me of believing what i want. I know that you believe in a god. But i believe that god is a fictional character that is no better then Voldemort from harry potter. Basically what you stated is dumb and you can not use that as a valid argument. plz try again or post better next time. ;)
TJhandford524 "It's ironic that you would try to diminish the quality of ones life to better suit your own" Living a religious life is a waste of a life. Religion is demonstrably toxic and the world would be a better place without it. The end goal of debating religion is to make the world a better place.
I understand how people believe in Jesus Christ for all his good teachings..there are some really beautiful stories there... But i don't understand how they can still Praise and love God,the father,the Creator, for all he's done to us here on earth. He slaughtered millions with the floods for being sinners He gives us false hope about our free will,while He knows if we go in Hell or Heaven. He wants only that people dedicate their own life for him,wasting it but getting in Heaven He knew what was gonna happen in the Garden of Eden but he let humanity be condemned to sin anyway...his plan depended on it Technically in the Genesis there was Day,Night and light before there was Sun... He has told a man,Abraham to prove his faith by killing his own son...if it was Satan who was in God's place... everyone would've been disgusted on how Satan tricks his sinners...but here Isaac,the son, is a hero,and God is still a loving God And if you start to think about all he did... he performed all the 7 deadly sins...yes..Wrath,Gluttony.pride and the others...he did them while trying to show and make the people believe...but then he realised he was wrong and he had sent his Son.. Why in the Churches there is only said ''Jesus did this,Jesus said that and that and he died for our sins but he came back from the dead nullifying the sacrifice he has done and that same sacrifice nullifies the whole Old testament so actually it doesn't'' But i haven't seen a priest or a preacher saying ''Yes,God killed millions of people for not believing in him...yet i came here so that you would love him;no..once in Heaven you won't be the same person.you will have no ideea what;s that sin,like hate or vanity,and ye... you're most probably to forget half your life and be happy with many people you hated during the life...but remember that Heaven is our gift from God...you wouldn't want to spend eternity in the lake of fire while screaming and losing your minds because of the immense pain from all over your body in Hell where God knows you're gonna go and he actually let it happen but you can change it if you pray and change your lifestyle completedly because you love him,not because you're scared of hell...now would you? Even if there is a god... i'd like to think it is NOT the Christian one..because he has so many flaws and doesn't deserve to be loved and prayed to.
***** Really? I dont understand what the difference should be? Why do we not have the same right as the disbeliefing Thomas to actually touch him? Why?
***** I cant follow you on this. The followers of Jesus saw him after his execution and could even put in his wounds. Why does Jesus not give the same courtesy today as a few days after his execution?
***** What does it mean he will be king? I mean is this less then god or more then god? What does a title like this mean? We are democratic societies Kings are no longer in power. Does it not only mean the people did not know better as to attach such an outdated term. As Jesus came back to his followers to be "seen" to be alive wasnt that the second coming? Did it not say that in the sacond Coming Jesus would judge the living and the dead? Why did he not do it then?
***** I am curious as I dont understand it: How can the second Coming not been the one when he came back to his followers? He was back on earth so this was definatly the second coming as Jesus. Help me out on that, how can god and Jesus be one when they are obviously two. We have a preacher which is seen to be a Messiah (as this is basically what Christ means) and a Messiah has to be a human being as only a human can be the Messiah. So is Jesus not the Messiah or isnt he god?
I'm a mix of both. Which makes me agnostic, i agree with a lot of atheistic beliefs. But as he said in this video its impossible to disprove god, so i believe there most likely isnt a god, but if there is its definitely not how christianity or any religion depicts him. Therefore i believe in deism as well. So if you agree with these things that i just stated. Agnostic is the way to go (: but if you dont wanna take my word for it, how about one of the most intelligent people to ever live? Albert Einstein, he believed in a very similar way as what i just explained. Hoped this helped !
Cristian Arriaza einstein was a deist. I was only a deist for a month then after i watched richard dawkins and laurence krauss documentary, I finally admitted to myself that I am an agnostic atheist like richard is.
I also cant disprove there are invisible flying unicorns!!! Same with god... but it is still illogical so that is why i think both statements are false xd. I just dont understand............ It is so easy to see that the bible is manmade and god is just a story by man just like flying unicorns but people still believe it 0 logic if you ask me
Cristian Arriaza If you believe on the possibility of the whole universe being a hologram and all our sensory perceptions to be preprogrammed; then there is a slight possibility of existence of a creator.
@kcuf7 yep bro and they would be like begging God for forgiveness for ignoring his existence. Then God's like "The evidence of my existence were just around you, you just didn't pay attention. And also I sent some people right there down there to tell you that I exist but you didn't listen so lol, you're screwed up, this is my law." So they better believe in God than letting their pride win them.
Mr. Hemant Mehta, one of several reasons the Psalmist David may have said, “ The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God,” (Psalm 14:1, 53:1) is because it is impossible to prove a universal negative. There are other possible reasons for his statement as well. For example: “For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE,” (Rom. 1:20) my emphasis added. In short, most rational people admit that design (in nature) requires a Designer (of that nature). Congratulations on your enlightenment to the fact that you cannot disprove God's existence! Was your enlightened understanding on this issue couched in mocking resignation? The late Dr. D. James Kennedy stated that it is impossible to prove a universal negative. If you are mockingly implying that a universal negative always is made about something unreal, I have news for you: it is possible to create a universal negative about something that is real as well as about something which is unreal! The issue is, does something unreal possess the same qualitative type of evidence for its existence as something which is real? As an example, while a flying spaghetti monster is unreal, on the other hand wind, microwaves, radio and TV signals are real. What kind of evidence does an unreal spaghetti monster have for its existence? On the other hand, what kind of evidence does the wind, microwaves, radio and TV signals have for their existence even when they cannot be seen? The answer is that real things have qualitative evidence for their existence which unreal things do not possess. To place the existence of God into the same category as a flying spaghetti monster is a category fallacy based alone on the type of qualitative evidence we find for God’s existence (like hundreds of fulfilled prophecies in the Bible, many of which have come to pass just in the last century, and many more are presently on the verge of complete fulfillment). To make an understatement, the qualitative evidence for God is obviously superior to the evidence for a flying spaghetti monster, which is why the overwhelming majority of intelligent and intellectually enlightened and intellectually honest people throughout history have preferred theism to atheism. Hebrews 11:6 states , “… for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.” To know God Hebrews 11:6 indicates several things: 1. A person must believe He exists. 2. A person must have concluded certain things about His character (He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him). 3. A person must respond to evidence about God (a person must “seek” Him). In your fifth of 15 things people “should never say to an atheist,” you answered Paschal’s wager in a partially irrational manner. You stated that if you are wrong, “… Nothing is going to happen to me.” You could only state that if you have constructed your own god. You appear to be implying that if there is a God, that god will not be concerned either about being recognized or ignored, nor about being either mocked or honored by his creatures! That approach appears to indicate you have manufactured your own god (idolatry) in your backup plan just in case you are wrong. That is an obvious miss about the character of the real God discernible through the “Bible” of nature (“… he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him,” Heb. 11:6). That rationalizing approach also seems to be indicating that you are claiming, “If there is a god, I am not afraid of the god I have created or hypothesized.” “The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,” (Psalm 111:10). You claim you are being honest, and that you do not believe. Are you certain you are being honest where it really matters, with yourself? Or are you holding a delusion, and are you lying to yourself for whatever reason? With someone as open about your atheism as you are, I suspect you have already heard more than enough compelling reasons to believe. Perhaps you do not feel you have a need for God? You stated your life would be the same with or without Him. Then I have some advice. It has been said, “There are no atheists in foxholes.” It may be that in some personal crisis experience you will one day realize you really do have a need for God. If that happens, all you have to do is accept His freely offered gift of eternal life given through His Son (John 3:16).
You're absolutely correct in everything you say (exept for the name of the website wich I do not know, that may be corect to). But the title is misleading. When I saw it I finally thought "Wow! Someone has actually found a way to prove good diesn't exist". But I was wrong, because it's impossible at the moment. Great video anyways! A thumbs up from me.
I think "God" is a human construction to fill in the gaps of what we couldn't explain years and years ago. Now with modern science and understanding we can give answers to the questions we once used "God" as and explanation for. As science develops we will answer more of these questions "God" is used for until religion adapts into something new.
Hey - I'm a Christian, and I just wanted to say that was a very fair, and reasonable argument. I believe in God because because he has revealed himself to men, and proved his power over nature by the resurrection at Easter. This is an event noted in history. But I also believe there is a first mover of the universe. You mentioned the question of where the universe came from, and I would ask that you investigate that question further. Ok, so there might be theories, or even one day proof, of the events that brought about our universe. But what made those events happen? Why is anything happening at all? Existence is self-proving. That something is in motion is self-proving of the fact that something set it in motion. God is the first mover. God is existence. I think any reasonable atheist should at least be able to follow the logic of this argument (I probably did not articulate it very well). Another argument I like to use for the existence of something other than the physical world is the reality of the moral (or natural) law. Where does this come from?
You seem like a very smart guy. I don't understand why you're dedicating so much time and effort to covering something you DON'T believe in. How is what you're doing any different than Christians talking about their disbelief in the morality of gay marriage? If you disagree with someone's beliefs or lifestyles, that's fine, but there's no need to try and change other people's minds. I believe you would be a lot more fulfilled dedicating your efforts to a cause you DO believe in.
He is dedicating efforts to a cause he believes in. He believes in objective truth, and that facts should be based on evidence. By arguing against dogma,religious oppression, and commonly held religious ideologies that have no factual backing, that's exactly what he's doing.
I would have no problem with all the utterly ludicrous, irrational, and sociopathic claims about the supernatural that religion makes and treats as empirical fact, on the following conditions: - You keep it to yourself and your community of ADULTS at all times, and especially when you're trying to be seen as providing benefit to the rest of society. Your claims of faith are bad enough on their own by being blatantly contradictory to intellectual integrity, but no society should have to tolerate your attempts at claiming a monopoly over common morality as well (when every piece of your supporting "evidence" is undermined by not living under a rock) - You don't feed it to children as fact, guilt-tripping them for not sharing your devotion. Don't even introduce it at all to them except comparatively to every other religion, so you don't just propagate your beliefs by virtue of denying them an informed opinion - You sure fucking do NOT try to influence social policy with it for everyone else. Theocracy is basically the lobotomized crack-whore version of walking up to a bunch of guys playing poker, and trying to convince them to give up because they're not following the official rules of Connect 4. You don't get to cry "intolerant!" when your own warped beliefs make exclusive claims to other people just for being born. Things that are enabled, protected and validated - especially by moderate believers - Indoctrination, faith healing, churches protecting child rapists, condom use stance in places with HIV epidemics, science/evolution denial, witch burning, circumcision/female genital mutilation, abstinence education, pro-birthers, televangelism, oppression of women, oppression of gays, oppression of atheists, censuring/censorship, "intelligent design", slavery, genocide, forced conversion, exquisite torture, racism, human sacrifice, ethnic cleansing, empathy removal, threats of eternal punishment, religious wars, blood transfusion rejection, systematic child abuse, prayer for sickness, contraceptive stance, Christian rock, young Earthers, flat Earthers, bible literalists, supporting and protection of extremists, faith as a virtue, personhood bills, climate change denial, anti-atheist billboards, Christmas displays, 10 commandments on public property, supposed "wars" on Christianity, no freedom from religion, churches are tax exempt, blasphemy laws, god on money and in the pledge, atheists are the most hated and least trusted, shunning responsibility, churches land ownership, court swear ins, lack of separation of church and state, bibles for Africa, anti-gay laws, apologetics, no adoption for gays, religious companies - birth control, religious companies - public anti-gay stance, religious forgeries, creation museum, shifting the burden of proof, death threats on atheists and critics, marriage vows over spouse abuse, prayer for first world problems, believers clinging on to every single tragedy or natural disaster, mother Theresa, forced belief/no exits, not allowing questions, closeted religious gays speaking against gays, calling atheists "militant", opinion based "facts" and evidence, arrogance, god of the gaps, demanding respect, fundamentalists, cherry picking, ignorance worship, idea and book worship.

just ask Christian to prove Vishnu doesn't exist or Buddhist diva doesn't exist. If they cannot, then they just debunked their own "prove God doesn't exist" argument because they aren't Hindu or Tibetam Buddhist.
"Not a smidgen of proof over all that time." What exactly are you looking for as proof? Are you looking for a specific revelation? Like a "Road to Damascus" experience? Are you looking for physical proof of a spiritual being? Are you just looking at nature and seeing if it points towards a creator? What exactly is "evidence" to you? It is absolutely obvious to me there is a God but most of the time I am called delusional when I say that. I guess you are only ""open minded"" if you reject everything besides atheism.
I am not looking for a doctrine/belief to guide me .The search for 'proof of a god' is a futile exercise (for me) . My Harmony comes from deep within . Namaste.
"The search for proof of a god is a futile exercise (for me)." Isn't that a belief that guides you? Are thoughts only beliefs if they contain a God? Hopefully I'm not coming off as really crass because I'm not trying to. I'm actually asking if your definition of "belief" must contain a God and I wasn't sure how else to express it.
Jeff Cameron Dude, give up. These are what I like to call: "angry atheists." they will insult you and do their best to demoralize you, and they are so opposed to the idea of the existence of God, they actually dislike people who do believe. Don't waste your time with them. Spend your time evangelizing to agnostics, or those who have questions, not those who will just hurt you.
Not too much fossil evidence on evolution either, to be honest. Also, get your history correct, religion with the Yahweeh/Eleheem God has been longer than 2014 years, and Christianity is younger than 2014 years. I would recommend you actually pick up a history book before you post something like that. :\
Yeah totally logical. Believing that somebody created the universe is as ridiculous as believing in the flying food monster. Nobody wrote this comment, it just popped up here.
It's not necesserly true that you have to be an atheist just because you don't believe in God.You could be an agnostic, which I describe like: Atheist + Humility + Respect = Agnostic Be an agnostic. You believe in what has been proven until something else comes up, but at the same time, you are down to earth. Instead of saying ''God doesn't exist'', you say ''I don't know if God does or doesn't exist, but I don't think he does until there's proof. Because honestly, everyone should be like this. I don't get it, just because you don't believe in God, what makes you think that you have the right to say that he doesn't exist? If you can't disprove God's existence, then you can't say he doesn't exist.
well how most people define it: Agnostic: lack of knowledge of God. ie. I do not know if God is real. Atheist: lack of belief in a God. ie. I do not believe in God. I am an agnostic atheist. Therefor I do not know if God exists.... hell he might, even if the probability is extremely minuscule! But I am not going to believe in a God when I have no knowledge of him or evidence for him. Both agnostic and Gnostic thought and atheist and theist thought. have to do with the answering of two completely different questions. Why is it so hard for people to understand this.
Being an atheist doesn't necessarily mean that a person is sure there is no god. We just don't believe there is a god. I don't think there is a way to prove that god doesn't exist, but since I haven't seen evidence of his existence, I don't believe. It is entirely possible to be both agnostic and an atheist. I actually think we get a little too caught up on the labels sometimes. Many atheists are open to the proposition of god and would change views if there was more proof in favor of him. I think few atheists would say that they believe without a doubt that there is no god. Some atheists lack humility, but that could be said for any group of people. Many of us are open-minded, though. I see the answer to your equation differently: Atheist + Humility + Respect = Respectful atheist who is willing to consider the perspectives of other people :-)
Just a question, (not a Christian so don't think I telling this you know kinda bad way) but what if God is the reasons.... You know, what if God is like physics law... A thing that should be to things affect, doesn't mean that it's a person who you have to pray, just what if there is a Good that never sent a religion
If it's wrong to say there's no such thing as God, then it must also to be wrong for a parent to tell their terrified child that there's no such thing as the Bogeyman.
The concept of god likely evolved from the mystery of death. The ancients must have wondered ; "How is it something/someone is alive and then they aren't alive". There must have been a lot of fear (as there is now) associated with nonexistence and death. So how do you resolve those mysteries and concerns? You make up a situation where death doesn't really happen. You invent a soul (spirit), afterlife and then a god to control it all. It puts the mind at ease. Personal death becomes less of a daily concern and the loss of loved ones less painful. When you think of it, it's a great relief....you might say a blessing. But that doesn't affect its truthiness. God and spirits and the afterlife are things humans made up. If they weren't causing death and destruction on a daily basis, it might even be a good thing.
Too many contradictions. Ever since the age if science began, religion has countered with, "oh, magnet out specific god made it tht way". That's when the holy books started to be taken metaphorically, so don't give me the "metaphorical" crap. I'd love for science ad religion to be blended, however, it's just not happening.
+Timothy Nyota Possible? Yes. A virgin can always have their DNA mutated during their conception in such a way that resulted in that woman becoming capable asexual reproduction just like some animals on this earth can. Is it likely? No, extremely unlikely as a matter of fact.
Atheist's will say I don't believe in God but I can't prove he dosent exist. A diciple of Jesus will say God is more real to me than my own life I don't just believe in him I know him. Now, the problem with what you are saying is you cant prove God exists but you cant prove that other invisble things dont exist ither.... Well God is alot more than someone you can't see, if you want to be scientific then you can't have a creation without a creator for 'scientifically' that's impossible So therefore something must have caused this perfect existance to happen and you are being warned dear friend there is only one way, and that is Jesus he is the way the truth and the life. If you want to be certain of this yourself then just for one moment of your life that could change your entire purpose just go on your knees, imagine what if Jesus was real? Cry out to him he will hear you if you earnestly seek him The best way to know God is to go to him directly, be blessed in Jesus name.
Thank you!! Here's an example of why everything needs a creator. Imagine this: you're strolling through the woods and you see a painting of Mona Lisa. Another person comes up behind you. You say "Man, I wonder who created that painting" and then the other man says "Are you crazy? that painting was obviously created by a mixture of berries that got blown onto it from the wind!" Who's right? Obviously you are if you said someone painted it. You can't necessarily prove that it was a painter, but it'd be impossible for it not to be. Same with the world and Jesus. God bless :)

Oh man, It took me about 17 years for me to become an atheist. I quited this thing called religion about 1 year ago. I was raised as a christian , my parents are both very religious . they forced me to go to church every week , but i also tought i was doing the right thing. I really belived in what i was doing.My parrents think of me as a rebel , as im to young and that may be age-related. That did teach me one lesson, How easy is for people to be manipulated , to be decived and all that under their own nose , with their own acceptance . I find it very similar to Comunism (I'm from Roumania(ex-comunist-country)) , and other brain washing theoryes.
+Donald Young Then explain all the children that die of cancers??????? explain all the miscarriages - since most religious people claim life begins at conception, What possible sin could a fetus have done to deserve death??? What about all the car accidents? Was everyone killed in a crash a hethen sinner? What about all the murders? - They all deserved to die??? All you religious morons speak without thinking about what your comments actually imply. If your god did exist, he has clearly shown that the Bible is right about one thing "God is no respecter of persons"
+DwayneShaw1 It truly takes faith and God never said that we wouldnt have tests, trials, and tribulations. We also live a cursed creation due to sin originating with the first human couple, Adam and Eve. The only way you and I can be spiritually restored from the carnal man to the Spiritual Man is by means of Jesus Christ. He was a perfect sacrifice to restore what the first human couple lost. I will be praying for you. Also a good read is a book called a Case For Christ, and Case For A Creator by Lee Strobel. I hope you will check them out.
Donald Young - “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”. In other words, faith is pointless and irrelevant WISHFUL THINKING. It has no bearing of any kind on the factual nature of anything. Once again you suggest that children, infant babies, and unborn fetus’, through no fault of their own, are evil sinners that do not deserve gods protection - this is the only logical conclusion of your claim of original sin in answer to my question of why children die of cancers and the unborn miscarriage...AND, you completely ignore my question about the god commanded infanticide of tens of thousands of babies in Numbers:31. If you have such great ‘faith’ in your god, why can’t you explain the justification for his actions? Tell us all why you think it’s okay to slaughter little babies - or worship a god that demands it?
Donald Young -As I suspected, you're another religious moron that runs around spouting off like some kind of authority on Christianity - when, in fact, you don't even know what's in the Bible you profess to love so much. And so you run and hide when confronted with the FACT that you worship an evil god. Sad really. But the truly pitiful thing is that you will ignore all facts and continue to worship the imaginary and evil Jehovah rather than admit you have been wrong all these years.

In exodus, it says you can beat your slave as long as he heals in 2 days. In 1st Corinthians it says women cannot speak in church. Also in 2nd kings theres a story of your "God" sending 2 bears mauling 42 children to death becaude they made fun of a bald guy. Is ANY of that just?

@@stevenbyun idk cuz he doesnt exist
I think God is a purely human construct. Many eons ago, early humans stopped physically adapting to their environment and starting adapting the environment to their needs by creating things (shelter, tools, weapons, clothing). So early humans are designers and creators of objects, we have the capacity to imagine. So eventually humans think, who makes the thunder and lightning? who makes the sea? who makes the trees? Humankind is a creator, and because of this mindset we assume that everything was created by a consciousness- so we imagine the god of the wood, the god of the sea, the god of thunder and lightning. Eventually this polytheistic version is morphed in to the idea of an all powerful creator god and monotheism is born a few thousand years later. Humans survive and advance by making things so we assume that we have a maker.
Maybe the universe wasn't made by an all powerful being with a fully formed ego and consciousness- maybe the universe just IS.
It doesn't even have to be eons if you think about it. Scientology just made up the Lord Xenu, that supposedly exist for millions of years. And this believe is how old ? 25 years? The fact that a grown man like Tom cruize can be preyed upon and converted like that, proves to me that humans are inherently sheep who will believe anything (without question) if their mind is molded hard enough in moments of weakness.
Also our ability to lie to ourselves isn't helping either.
...That was simply beautiful to read :D
Maybe the Universe, is God? Hmmm.
"maybe the universe just IS". You've just explained God.
Heru- deshet
I know. Half of Him, anyways.
We know God does not exist because he is a character in a fictional book. To say I don't know whether god exist is the same as saying I don't know if Spiderman exist because I cannot prove he doesn't exist. God is a character in a book with a talking snake, a talking donkey , a book in which walking sticks turn into snakes and many other obviously fictional events .How can you extract a real person from such a book. If the world has a creator that creator is not God he is something else.We know human being write books and the bible is a product of human imagination.There is no room for being agnostic and say I do not whether God exists. Without the bible there is no God and the bible was created by man therefore man created God. God does not exist outside the book, hence no answered prayers.

Actually agnostic atheist is accurate terminology, because they are 2 completely different categories. Agnostic means.... we have no ability prove that supernatural gods exist, say nothing of assume. Atheist means one does not believe in gods or deities due to zero scientific evidence backing this man made theory up. Both of these categories, require courage, intelligence, logic and critical thinking. I am in both categories, but I always defer to the terms of atheist or non theist, because the word agnostic is often misconstrued. Science and logic are my only truth and reality. Outside of that, it is just wishful magical machinations.

You see, I believe that God is evil for creating sin. Let me tell you why.
Think about it, an ALMIGHTY being creates us, humans. The almighty being, aka God, knows our desires, knows our needs, and gives us free will. Now imagine some of God's creations, aka humans, disobey God. Because God is all wise, he should be able to understand how humans perceive the world and thus, be not bothered by their disbelief. When the unbelievers die, God should simply show himself to the unbelievers and calmly explain that he's real. Since he's all loving and knows human nature, he should be able to understand and respect free will of his own creation. God is a loving being who knows every single nook and cranny of his creation, as such he shouldn't be offended if people down believe in him, after all, it's their choice.
Sounds like a good world to me! Now I want you to tell me, does god have any logical reason to create sin?
…
No, zero. There is absolutely NO reason as to why a loving all knowing being would condemn a simple mortal to eternal torture for disbelief. Also, you can tell me “Sin is a result of free will” Okay… God can just not consider free will a sin and be done with it? Why make sin? What purpose does it serve other than the threat of eternal damnation?
Well, I'm assuming he's real, he's not, but you get the Idea.
I like good fiction too, fantasy is a good thing. But i like reality more, that's why i don't like it when people insist their fiction is actually true, like religious people do.

One who created so many religions in this world is the Devil. His purpose is to confuse us so that we would not choose the real life-saving God of heaven. He is the One who has given us the Holy Bible. So, focus on this Book and through the Church that you may grow thereby. I hope to see you in heaven, soon. Thank you.
How can you not know Him, Schiwi? You have been eating and drinking and breathing His air since your birth and not knowing the Lord exists? You don't want to be called a stupid, do you? Think even with logic by reading and hearing His voice that is in the Holy Bible. Then your understanding will come to you and you will have peace of God rules your heart too. Experience it, He is the living Lord! See you in His kingdom above, Schiwi. Thanks.
@@stevenbyun bruh why dont u deny other peoples religion instead of just saying that ur god is real to an atheist
In thousands of years from now if religion exists, they will still be saying Jesus is coming back.
My conclusion so far is that people made religion so they can give answers about the things that they can't answer logically. And it's so hard for religious people to accept that because they rather think there's a higher power than start to think.
Thanks for your videos.
Facts, I think they have “god” is to have hope until their end in time. They look forward to the “afterlife” but I don’t think their is. We are animals living, you look at the food chain and we are just animals processing the food chain.
Heliak4042...that's EXACTLY what I tell people when I'm asked if i believe in God. I say yes....and no. Do I believe that there is a spiritual being, who's origins and motivations cannot be explained, and who brought each one of us into existence (against our will, mind you. No one asks to be born.) without any explanation as to why or what we're supposed to do with this physical life? No. Do I believe that God exists because we created him as a means to answer questions we cannot answer ourselves, and as a source of comfort and strength in times of crisis? Yes.
The oldest most evil scam is to tell people that they're born in sin and there's a better place after death, but to be saved a spot they must repent and believe the story that someone was sacrificed 2000 years ago to forgive their sins.
Yeah, the IDEA of god is great to keep people with consistent morals, but god itself is a fallacy. It’s also funny that people come after us for not believing. Like who WOULDN’T want eternal life with an all-loving god to be real? It’s just not real tho
This is a very common belief. But it's true that it's much easier to believe there is no god- and do whatever you want- than the believe there is a God who will judge righteously. The great scientists in the age of enlightenment, like Isaac Newton, believed there was a god (as did most people throughout history). To suppose that every human being who ever believed in God never even bothered to "start to think" is incredibly arrogant, not to mention illogical.
I hold to a belief that is in opposition to yours, but I would just like to say real quick that I like the way you argue your point. Unlike many people I hear you argued logically, and didn't just result to insult throwing. Very respectable.
If god were real, he would be an atheist. I mean, come on, what would he believe in.
mind blown

Is he believe in himself, doesn't he know all about himself ?
Believe is when you expect something and you got faith...
We can do the same reasonning with worship...
Atheists do not worship. God does not ...
Or God worship himself like masturbation ?
he would be an atheist about all other gods apart from himself, so he would be an atheist in every way but one. Like Dawkins said, we are all atheists technically, as people don't believe in every god apart from one. While atheists only go one god less.
Atheist means not believing in god right? Why would god believe in something if hes the alpha and omega? The begining and the last? Site some example of thing he believe in......
Why would He mention Himself then?
My partners 11 y/o brother can do it in an amazing way. "If Jesus exists, why isn't he here giving me presents?"
Because God is not Santa Claus.
It was his way of saying "why doesn't he show himself"
***** interesting way of looking at things. i didnt start believing in god or jesus untill i moved from up north to south carolina. now that im in the bible belt, where there is quite literaly a church on almost every block (there are a few right here in my town that are right across the street from one another) i still dont go to church. i dont read or pray. i guess part of me is like. this is bullshit. the other half is like. ok preacher, dont hit me with the word any more, ill believe so you will shut up. cause they really do pound it home down here. i didnt even know what hell was untill i was 13 and moved here. tells u the background.
retandom why would you let someone else force their religion on u like that?
you here somethng so much you start to believe it.
I guess I'm an anti-theist because I truly believe no gods exist.
Ever so glad I "met" you online, you really speak to me. Finally someone who understands me
It is impossible to prove something does not exist.
That's wrong. You can prove certain propositions don't exist. For example we know that married bachelors don't exist. By the law of self contradiction, we can prove universal negatives. That being said, atheism is the proposition that God does not exist. Yes, you heard me. Philosophers do agree that a psychological state is too broad of a definition and anyways that title belongs to agnostics. By your definition, babies, animals are all atheists, which is not a good definiton. Thus, we stick to three basic types of belief - theism, agnosticism, and atheism. Hope this answers your question :)
Xavy Johnson Tomy I think the most common problem comes with the ''super natural'' tag as it feels like an escape from common rules of logic.
Here's an example situation without the use of religion, that has kinda the same point as Jonathan made, I think.
Suppose I say, I can fly.
Someone says, no you cannot, to which I say yes I can, followed by *prove that I can't fly*. That is impossible to prove, beyond the fact that humans cannot fly, which is a fine argument. But then if I say my capability of flight is a *super natural* ability that defies mere earthly capabilities, and is a true miracle. You cannot disprove it, even though it's a load of shit, pardon the language. Here ofcourse is the point where the rightfully suspecting person knows that the burden of proof is on the claiming side, and asks him to fly, or to somehow prove that I have this super natural capability to fly, since it is impossible. To which I say you *just have to believe. *
Arguing this is pointless as it doesn't follow the rules of reality. You (atleast most of the time) cannot prove a negative, which I think, if I understood correctly, was the point Jonathan was trying to make.
Xavy Johnson Tomy
_" By your definition, babies, animals are all atheists, which is not a good definiton."_
Why not? It has a perfect correspondence with normal words like "homeless" that nobody has any problem understanding. I submit that people who can't grasp the context involved here are so retarded that they might also object to your claim that you can prove that married bachelors don't exist on the grounds that they just flat out refuse to understand what you mean by bachelor.
In any case, that babies are atheists is actually not a problem because babies are just an early stage of human development and they employ the same natural epistemic standards for automatic learning that adults do - which includes the rational principle that existential claims are assumed to be false until evidence suggests otherwise. You are perfectly rationally justified in being an atheists without ever having heard about the concept of god for the same reason you're perfectly rationally justified in not believing in an infinity of other bullshit there's no evidence for. You might possibly be wrong, but you're certainly going with the most probable hypothesis when you assume nonexistence in the absence of evidence and therefore it's a rational decision.
Xavy Johnson Tomy Marriage and Bachelors are man made categorizations. The existence of something is not. But I digress, please prove that Unicorns don't exist.
Pardon? I didn't make an assertion, I made a request. I asked the poster to prove that Unicorns don't exist. The point I was making is that you can not disprove the existence of something. He was trying to use a logic pretzel to say that you could. Analogy: There are many, many people who believe in the Loch Ness monster (or Nessie for short). We don't look at the non-believers and say "Prove that Nessie doesn't exist!" as that would be absurd.
Additionally, I made no points about a god, as I don't perceive there to be any point to god to begin with.
When god created the universe, it apparently took him three days for the earth, and one day for all the stars, galaxies and planets... I'm pretty sure that billions of galaxies would take much longer than it would take to make the earth

Boy you people who don't believe in God sure are choosy about how God should have done things. This is a new one on me. Even assuming it's fiction, as you have, isn't life immeasurably more complex than non-life; the complex chemistry of a self-sustaining organism (which scientists can't make in labs to this day, hard as they try) incredibly more intricate than a ball of burning gas or a rock floating in a vacuum? And all that aside, why shouldn't an all-powerful God take three days to do what He pleases, and one to do something else? You are trying to invent a god that is not much of a god at all, instead of addressing the God of the Bible- who you're referencing.
“If you take God out of the picture, my entire world functions the exact same way. So why throw something in there that doesn’t make sense”
Perfectly said
Friend, how do you know that you have taken an omnipotent God out of the picture? Also, how did you become convinced of atheism?

Not trying to be insulting, but it's *NEAR IMPOSSIBLE* for me to argue about something in a calm manner with someone that stupid. 😒, it's bullshit!
Title: disproving the existence of God. His Answer: I don't know.

Very good point that you made Noah.
The Bible says in John 3:16-36 that whoever believes in the Lord Jesus Christ shall not perish but have everlasting life, the Bible also says in Romans 10:9 that those who declare with their mouth that Jesus Christ is their God, Lord, and Savior they shall be saved. Revelation 1:8 says that Jesus is the alpha and the omega. Luke and revelation is the ending times, and Jesus is returning back. So are you going to submit your life to him or no? Narrow is the path that leads to the gates of heaven, but only few people find it. The gates that is the path to destruction is where many people find it! Jesus loves you SO MUCH! That he died on the cross, and was resurrected from the dead 3 days later to give us eternal life.

I can never figure out why theist claim God would never prove he exist because we need to have faith - but then at the first opportunity claim God did this good thing - and that therefore proves he's real!
It's because religion is made out of people's private intuitions and because those people tend to have a ton of double standards.
Allow me to help you, though you could just read the Bible yourself to find out how the God of the Bible operates and why. Here is one example of how God deals with people's belief- there are of course many other instances:
" When Jesus had said these things, he departed and hid himself from them. Though he had done so many signs before them, they still did not believe in him, so that the word spoken by the prophet Isaiah might be fulfilled:
“Lord, who has believed what he heard from us,
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?”
Therefore they could not believe. For again Isaiah said,
“He has blinded their eyes
and hardened their heart,
lest they see with their eyes,
and understand with their heart, and turn,
and I would heal them.”
Isaiah said these things because he saw his glory and spoke of him. Nevertheless, many even of the authorities believed in him, but for fear of the Pharisees they did not confess it, so that they would not be put out of the synagogue; for they loved the glory that comes from man more than the glory that comes from God."
Here's something else that shines light on your question about belief and the God of the Bible making himself known:
"For the wrath of God is revealed from heaven against all ungodliness and unrighteousness of men, who by their unrighteousness suppress the truth. For what can be known about God is plain to them, because God has shown it to them. For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made. So they are without excuse. For although they knew God, they did not honor him as God or give thanks to him, but they became futile in their thinking, and their foolish hearts were darkened. Claiming to be wise, they became fools, and exchanged the glory of the immortal God for images resembling mortal man and birds and animals and creeping things.
Therefore God gave them up in the lusts of their hearts to impurity, to the dishonoring of their bodies among themselves, because they exchanged the truth about God for a lie and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever! Amen."
If you ever wonder anything about the God of the Bible, look for yourself. If you really want to know, that is.

It was like brain washing and religion forcefully pushed on you by staff and simultaneously in the curriculum.
Faith is the evidence of things unseen. That IS the evidence. Its not blind.
Which part was brainwashing? Telling you to follow commandments and instilling morals in you? Which even the unbelievers subconsciously use?

I think I may have accidentally proven that the Christian/Jewish/Muslim versions of God do not exist mathematically. All three of these versions define God in part as a being of infinite power who created the Earth. But it just occurred to me to ask, "How easy would it be for a being of infinite power to create something finite, like the Earth?" The answer to that would be that it would be too easy, literally, meaning that he couldn't do it because it was too easy.
The reason is this: If someone's power is infinite, then what percentage of that power would be needed to create something finite? And the answer is simply: Too small. Even 0.000001% of infinity is still infinity when you look at infinity mathematically.
So even if we ignored the fact that creating something of infinite energy would instantly create a black hole so dense that everything in the universe would already be inside of it, what would be created could only have an infinite value of energy. The Earth is big, but still finite, and to create a finite amount from an infinite power would require an infinitesimal amount of effort.
Now, you could go on to say that God is infinitely subtle, since he would have to be in order to make something that is not infinite, but if God was infinitely subtle, he could use as much power as he wanted, and he still would not be able to make anything occur.
I think an easier way to visualize this is to think back to the lunar landing. When the first astronauts were being trained to walk on the moon in a low gravity simulator, they had to retrain their muscles to be more subtle to compensate for the lower gravity, since using their normal amount of power for a step made their leg just go up and up and they couldn't complete the step. Now, if they had an infinite amount of power, then it wouldn't matter how subtle they were trying to be, they wouldn't even be able to complete one single step.
And there you have it. Mathematical proof that the Christian/Jewish/Muslim versions of God are not real.
That's very interesting!!!! Not sure about it but very interesting, good job!!!
Lewis H
Thanks! :-)
I too enjoyed your reasoning, although i disagree with it. Lets get started off by saying that anyone in their right mind who has read the Christian/Muslim/Jewish creation story already knows it is inconsistent with reality, and therefore wrong within reality. But a being with infinite power creating the universe is still theoretically possible. I thought of a mathematical line, and infinitely long, infinitely thin strand of points stretching for all eternity. Although it would be impractical to use such a large thing to do even the most basic of mathematical operations, we often use parts, or segments, of lines to show measurements, graph information and generally organize ourselves when dealing with shapes. So, if humans can take an infinitely long, impractical tool, and separate it into manageable, practical, pieces, infinitely less than 1%, could not other things do it too?
Contingency Plan
Well, you are correct in your mathematical reasoning, but even though we don't know if the universe is infinite in size, but we know that the universe has been around for a finite amount of time. Time is a subtlety that is nearly always lost on creationists, so I don't expect them to pick up on it.
Since we know that the universe has finite time, we know it has finite space. The reason is because of what scientists are calling "now slices". This is basically the property of time to be influenced by the directionality of moving objects in relation to each other. Let me give you an example. If you and I were standing a few meters apart, and I started walking towards you, my "now" would be slightly in your future, and if i walked away from you, my "now" would be slightly in your past. The separation of time would be increased if we were standing further apart.
The reason this means that the universe is finite in size is because if an object is moving, then its past now slice cannot extend back through time an infinite distance. If there was infinite room for a now slice to cut back through time, it could cut back up to 20 billion years, which is a span of time that we know has not existed.
Um... I don't understand how this disputes a god with infinite power. Although I don't believe in any god, I was using an analogy to describe the flaws in your previous statement, playing "Devil's Advocate" if you will. I don't comprehend what you mean to dispute in my argument. If you are using it to prove that something with infinite distance could not exist, I agree, but I was using it as a theoretical analogy anyway, so....?
That's what i like about scientists is that they're honest enough to say they don't know. But, they still continue to do research on the subject.
disprove unicorns, disprove santa, disprove the toothfairy. You can't, yet religious people like everyone else don't believe they exist! but when it comes to god it's the same situation, so why do people happily believe he exists but not unicorns?
There is evidence for God, not for unicorns.
The Christian Voice bullshit and you know it!!
+The Christian Voice you have scientifical evidence that has passed through the scientific method many times to demonstrate the existence of the creator of this universe? and which creator is your creator?
History can disprove those things but God has no history
Trends and Topics what does that even mean?
Honestly I believe in a God but I can’t prove there is one, I just believe it and see what happens into my death, but I do believe in evolution.
I Believe In Both Creation And Evolution.
You can’t believe in God and evolution. they disprove each other. I hope you find the true God and have a relationship with him and believe the Bible. God bless you and your day
Isn't it simple? If there were God and he helped the needy as stated by all theists, people would pay the 'priests' and 'Fathers' of the church and there would be no hospitals or such medical institutions.
If one person believes in something, he's stupid. If many people believe in the same thing, its religion??? And if so, the term 'God' is a part of that religion.
You can’t disprove God. Nobody here sounds actually “smart” when you can’t even have an explanatory answer to your own beliefs. Which is why “I don’t know” is the most reliable answer whether what you think.
The statement "there is a god" is unfalsifiable. The statement "the god of the bible exists" is falsifiable and false, because we can demonstrate that the characteristics, propositions and evidence shown in the bible are contradictory with reality.
OK, someone answer this for me: When something good happens, thank you god; but if something bad happens, it's my (or someone else's) fault, god had nothing to do with it?
Hi Valley, All good things do come from the Lord. For the Lord God is good. But if you really want to know from the Lords perspective, why don't you repent of your sins. He will cleanse your heart and purify it for you, as a new beginning. You will be very glad that you did. This is the way we are born again, as the Lord Jesus was saying to man named Nicodemus (John Chapt. 3).
@@stevenbyun That didn't answer the question at all. You didn't even attempt to address why we don't assume supernatural causes when bad things happen.
Hi, Valley. Try reading the Book of Job in the Old Testament, why don't you? As with the born again Christians, we rely on the Lord with the all things. Whether it's good or bad, our trust is in the Lord, who sees over all things on the earth as well as over the universe that He has created. While we are dwelling here on the earth, we do not know everything that goes on here. So it's best to leave it up to the Lord to do that, for He is able. That's how we grew up, leaving all things for our Mom and Dad to handle all things, for they are able, huh? But when we get to go home to the Father, then we will get to know what we wanted to know while we were here. Repentance to salvation is what He has said! Do this and see for yourself, what He had said is not true? I hope to see you in heaven, where He is waiting for us to come. Thank you.
Hi Mentos, Sorry, maybe I got bit confused between you and the other person, when I was responding. You know, some of the good things as well as the bad things can happened supernaturally. I think there is no need for focusing on the bad things, when we can focus on the good things that can happened for us, because of the mercy of God for us. As an example, a sinners can be born again in Holy Gods mercy, is far better thing to pay our attention on. For many souls are being born again around the world everyday! Mentos, please go to your Bible and open to the Gospel of Luke 13:1-5. If you obey the Lord with your whole heart, and repent of your sins, you will experience the response from the living God of our founding fathers. Then you will be so glad that you did it! And my hope is to see you in His glorious heavenly kingdom!! Thank you.
As the Son Jesus has said that One is good, that is His Father. But Satan is evil! He is the one who tricked Eve in the Garden of Eden. Since he has become not only the enemy of God but he is also the enemy of mankind as well. Why is it that parents always teach their children to be good? Because if reinforcement is not there child will automatically go in the wrong direction. Even headed to hell direction. Here is a scripture verse I would like you to read for yourself, Proverbs 23:13. Go to the Church and hear the word of God. Or listen to the sermon through Christian broadcast, T.V. or radio. The Bible says the faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of God. When you are listening to the Word, God will give you a gift of faith. By faith, you will see yourself as the sinner, just as He has said. Then you repent of your sins before Him, He will forgive you and make you a new man. A child of Holy One. I hope to see you in His heavenly kingdom. Amen.
If god is brave & almighty, he wouldn't hide & watch his followers defend him.
Some gods can be disproven in my opinion. The Abrahamic god, that is all knowing, all powerful and all loving is a contradiction. It is impossible to be those 3 attributes and yet allow evil to exist. Because of this, you can disprove some gods based on their descriptions. Like if I say "there's an invisible teapot orbiting earth" you can't disprove it but if I say "and it's made of 100% iron and 100% gold" then maybe the teapot is there, but _my_ teapot that is 100% iron and 100% gold doesn't. So it can be disproven.
Saying that God created the world is not a radical conclusion. YHVH told His disciples how and when He did it, people didn't just randomly make it up.

I'm a Christian and I think the same way as you in this point
We are all still figuring it all out.. let just walk step by step with our lives to find out about the truth. Why push your belief to other in order just become right?
Critical thinking atheists are about finding answers and not about giving answers. A lot of religions seem to be the polar opposite in that respect. That being true, isn't it really the responsibility of the religion give answers, to prove it's legitimacy, rather than the athiest's to disprove? (although they do try; bless 'em)
The reason we haven't yet disproved any god's existence is because we are too busy finding our own answers. we get closer and closer every day; it might not be supernatural, but we know it will be right. That is exciting to me.
Science tells us where we really came from.
Hement Metta, (I hope I got that right) You make a very good point I also am an atheist, I have been since I was 6 yrs old and nobody could tell me where "god" came from, BUT could tell me what he said, what he wants, and how he wants me to live. I put this together with "nobody" knows what happens when you die" and nobody ever comes back from death, and it became obvious to me at a very young age that all these people were doing were comforting themselves with folklore and myths and legends that had no bases simply because they were afraid of the "unknown"!!!
You said that atheism doesn't mean disproving God but all of your videos are you trying to disprove God.
But he is just one of the many people who consider themselves atheists, he as an individual is not representative of every single other person who refers to them self as an 'atheist'.

Disproving God:
A married bachelor cannot exist. An omnipotent God can create a married bachelor, therefore God cannot exist. If your rebuttal is "but God can change the laws of logic blablabla" the problem is that proof is a logical concept and thus can only exist within the realm of logic. Existence is also a concept that occurs inside the realm of logic (as you need logic to distinguish existence from non-existence). Changing the laws of logic lies outside the realm of logic and thus we do not need to take it into account when we prove something. This sort of proof would be accepted in mathematics (proof by contradiction) and is actually more powerful than any proof involving the physical world.
BUT does that mean God does not exist? I am 100% sure God does not exist and it is impossible he exists but he can exist. This is because 100% sure and impossible are all logical concepts defined within the realm of logic, where God cannot exist. If the laws of logic somehow are "changed", then God can exist, but not in any definition that we can understand.
Russell Kumar "This question is based on a popular misunderstanding about the definitions of words like "almighty" or "omnipotent." These terms do not mean that God can do anything. Rather, they describe the amount of God's power. Power is the ability to effect change - to make something happen. God (being unlimited) has unlimited power, and the Bible affirms this (Job 11:7-11, 37:23; 2 Corinthians 6:18; Revelation 4:8; etc.). Therefore, God can do whatever is possible to be done. God cannot, however, do that which is actually impossible. This is because true impossibility is not based on the amount of power one has, it is based on what is really possible" God is subject to the laws of logic. Therefore the laws of logic are above God.
Oliver Li God created the laws of logic. He's also 100% logical so he won't change them to something that makes him not all powerful
headlessguy98 logical means obeying the laws of logic. If God is logical then that means the laws of logic are above him
Oliver Li
Ok the reason God can't make a married bachelor or a triangle square or a one sided stick, is because they are outside the laws of himself. If god can do anything logically possible and he IS the standard of logic, than no, he can't make a rock so big he can't lift it. It's outside of himself. It's logically impossible. That doesn't disprove god in any way. You find me something outside the laws of logic and I will become an atheist right now
Elijah Simerson What does that mean? That God is confined within the laws of logic? that's my problem. If God is confined by the laws of logic, then that means the laws of logic are above him. This counters the argument that Christians often give about how God is keeping the laws of logic and of nature the same. If he is subject to the laws of logic, then that cannot be the case.
Atheists want concrete evidence but God wants our faith.
Faith means being sure of the things we hope for and knowing that something is real even if we do not see it.
Jesus saith to him: Because thou hast seen me, Thomas, thou hast believed: blessed are they that have not seen, and have believed.
To those that believe in God no explanation is necessary, to those that don't believe in God no explanation is POSSIBLE.
Sounds like a scam to me!! Watch out that the church doesn't start asking for some of your pay each month!
"Atheists want concrete evidence but God wants our faith."

That makes sense. Because I was LDS for 12 years as a convert. My life went back to being the same after I left.
I think we should respect each others beliefs and come to our own conclusions.
Lol
It's ironic that you would try to diminish the quality of ones life to better suit your own, considering this is what you feel Christians do by evangelism. I agree that some christians get it wrong. A lot more than others. However, don't ever let the actions of a few, reflect the entire populous. Some of these Christians come from a place of crazy love. Love is foundation of what Christianity is about. Unfortunately those Christians who follow their own agendas instead of God's, diminish the merits of this religion (and the people who do it right) for people like yourself. I respect your beliefs and will never say to you, "you gotta accept Jesus Christ as your savior or you're going to hell." Because truthfully, These Christians are in more danger of this fate than you. My job, my role in this body is to just present you with the information. I cannot change a man, for I am only a man, But it is God's job to change you. If I try to, I act as God's mouth, and turn you off from me AND Him. But the two commands God gives us that are greater than any other is "Love your God, with all of your strength, heart, and soul. And to Love your neighbor as yourself." If you satisfy one you will also satisfy the other. Unfortunately, this principle is lost because people cherry pick the rules that they feel like they agree with while omitting others that they don't. Herein lies the problem. I'm sorry for ranting, but a lot of Christians who do good for others to serve God, don't get a fair shake because of those who do it wrong. It's like saying all black people are killers and thieves. Or all Muslims are terrorists. It's just not true.
I am an atheist, but I agree with you. Being a former christian myself, of course you can't simply say that because one christian treated you unfairly, all of them are terrible people. That's called being stupid.
However, there is a reason that we atheists don't believe in God, and I know for me, it's got nothing to do with how Christians have treated me. I love Christians, they're my friends, my family, I've grown up in church and I still attend (despite being an atheist). For me, it's the uncertainty of it all, the lack of evidence and the very faulty foundations of the bible and the existence of Jesus that brought me up to reality. I could be wrong, I'm still trying to work it out, but I am atheist. Who knows, maybe in 60 years when I am nearing death I will embrace some religion just because I actually believe it, but for now, that kind of outcome is looking to be very slim.
I hate how almost all Christians say "Some Christians got it wrong". no no no no no no no! You got it wrong. If you were a true Christian you would follow the book word for word. And you would then be the crazy guy on the streets throwing rocks at suspected gay people saying "GOD HATES GAY" then you would most likely get arrested and put in a crazy house. You dont even know your own religion. I am a former catholic and christian. I read and researched my own religion. Theres a reason i am atheist. Dont act like you have it right and the others dont. And you are wrong about the whole love thing. Jesus states
"Anyone who loves their father or mother more than me is not worthy of me; anyone who loves their son or daughter more than me is not worthy of me."
You are suppose to love Jesus more then anyone else. And loving him more then anyone means you dont care about anyone as much as him . So stoning gays is OKAY because you dont love them as much as you love jesus. This is only the tip of the iceberg. Learn your own religion bro.

lol and you do? tell me and point out where i am wrong. And i will accept and publicly acknowledge at the point where i am wrong, but yet you have yet to post anything even remotely stating where i am wrong. I am open for anything and will consider everything you say and i will most likely prove to you that you are wrong with facts ;)
*****
Concept? really ? dude. i asked for you to first of all back up your statement of "IF only you knew what you were talking about " and you did not. You totally avoided the question because i suspect you can not counter what i say. second i will counter what you just said. First you dont know what i do and dont understand. I hope you understand that. The concept of believing in your eyes i see as childish. Also the concept of believing is a quite simple concept to understand and i dont know how that even remotely relates to the debate. I am not saying you cant believe in what you want. And you cant deny me of believing what i want. I know that you believe in a god. But i believe that god is a fictional character that is no better then Voldemort from harry potter. Basically what you stated is dumb and you can not use that as a valid argument. plz try again or post better next time. ;)

"It's ironic that you would try to diminish the quality of ones life to better suit your own"
Living a religious life is a waste of a life. Religion is demonstrably toxic and the world would be a better place without it. The end goal of debating religion is to make the world a better place.
I understand how people believe in Jesus Christ for all his good teachings..there are some really beautiful stories there...
But i don't understand how they can still Praise and love God,the father,the Creator, for all he's done to us here on earth.
He slaughtered millions with the floods for being sinners
He gives us false hope about our free will,while He knows if we go in Hell or Heaven.
He wants only that people dedicate their own life for him,wasting it but getting in Heaven
He knew what was gonna happen in the Garden of Eden but he let humanity be condemned to sin anyway...his plan depended on it
Technically in the Genesis there was Day,Night and light before there was Sun...
He has told a man,Abraham to prove his faith by killing his own son...if it was Satan who was in God's place... everyone would've been disgusted on how Satan tricks his sinners...but here Isaac,the son, is a hero,and God is still a loving God
And if you start to think about all he did... he performed all the 7 deadly sins...yes..Wrath,Gluttony.pride and the others...he did them while trying to show and make the people believe...but then he realised he was wrong and he had sent his Son..
Why in the Churches there is only said ''Jesus did this,Jesus said that and that and he died for our sins but he came back from the dead nullifying the sacrifice he has done and that same sacrifice nullifies the whole Old testament so actually it doesn't''
But i haven't seen a priest or a preacher saying ''Yes,God killed millions of people for not believing in him...yet i came here so that you would love him;no..once in Heaven you won't be the same person.you will have no ideea what;s that sin,like hate or vanity,and ye... you're most probably to forget half your life and be happy with many people you hated during the life...but remember that Heaven is our gift from God...you wouldn't want to spend eternity in the lake of fire while screaming and losing your minds because of the immense pain from all over your body in Hell where God knows you're gonna go and he actually let it happen but you can change it if you pray and change your lifestyle completedly because you love him,not because you're scared of hell...now would you?
Even if there is a god... i'd like to think it is NOT the Christian one..because he has so many flaws and doesn't deserve to be loved and prayed to.
"Disproving existence of God"? Impossibilities like that don't concern me.
Same here. I know that God exists.
True, it's kind of like disproving Bigfoot or disproving Unicorns.
It could be great if god appears... but to bad he doesnt exist
***** Really? I dont understand what the difference should be? Why do we not have the same right as the disbeliefing Thomas to actually touch him? Why?
*****
Interesting and where do I find this what you all said? Is their s I make myself no longer physicla speech?
*****
I cant follow you on this. The followers of Jesus saw him after his execution and could even put in his wounds. Why does Jesus not give the same courtesy today as a few days after his execution?
*****
What does it mean he will be king? I mean is this less then god or more then god? What does a title like this mean? We are democratic societies Kings are no longer in power. Does it not only mean the people did not know better as to attach such an outdated term.
As Jesus came back to his followers to be "seen" to be alive wasnt that the second coming? Did it not say that in the sacond Coming Jesus would judge the living and the dead? Why did he not do it then?
***** I am curious as I dont understand it: How can the second Coming not been the one when he came back to his followers? He was back on earth so this was definatly the second coming as Jesus.
Help me out on that, how can god and Jesus be one when they are obviously two. We have a preacher which is seen to be a Messiah (as this is basically what Christ means) and a Messiah has to be a human being as only a human can be the Messiah. So is Jesus not the Messiah or isnt he god?
I'm still thinking whether to be Atheist or Deist.
I'm a mix of both. Which makes me agnostic, i agree with a lot of atheistic beliefs. But as he said in this video its impossible to disprove god, so i believe there most likely isnt a god, but if there is its definitely not how christianity or any religion depicts him. Therefore i believe in deism as well. So if you agree with these things that i just stated. Agnostic is the way to go (: but if you dont wanna take my word for it, how about one of the most intelligent people to ever live? Albert Einstein, he believed in a very similar way as what i just explained. Hoped this helped !
Cristian Arriaza einstein was a deist.
I was only a deist for a month then after i watched richard dawkins and laurence krauss documentary, I finally admitted to myself that I am an agnostic atheist like richard is.
Actually he was a mix of diest and agnositic .
I also cant disprove there are invisible flying unicorns!!! Same with god... but it is still illogical so that is why i think both statements are false xd. I just dont understand............ It is so easy to see that the bible is manmade and god is just a story by man just like flying unicorns but people still believe it
0 logic if you ask me
Cristian Arriaza If you believe on the possibility of the whole universe being a hologram and all our sensory perceptions to be preprogrammed; then there is a slight possibility of existence of a creator.
The worst thing that could happen to an atheist is WHAT IF THEY'RE WRONG.
@kcuf7 yep bro and they would be like begging God for forgiveness for ignoring his existence. Then God's like "The evidence of my existence were just around you, you just didn't pay attention. And also I sent some people right there down there to tell you that I exist but you didn't listen so lol, you're screwed up, this is my law." So they better believe in God than letting their pride win them.
Mr. Hemant Mehta, one of several reasons the Psalmist David may have said, “ The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God,” (Psalm 14:1, 53:1) is because it is impossible to prove a universal negative. There are other possible reasons for his statement as well. For example:
“For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that THEY ARE WITHOUT EXCUSE,” (Rom. 1:20) my emphasis added. In short, most rational people admit that design (in nature) requires a Designer (of that nature).
Congratulations on your enlightenment to the fact that you cannot disprove God's existence! Was your enlightened understanding on this issue couched in mocking resignation?
The late Dr. D. James Kennedy stated that it is impossible to prove a universal negative. If you are mockingly implying that a universal negative always is made about something unreal, I have news for you: it is possible to create a universal negative about something that is real as well as about something which is unreal!
The issue is, does something unreal possess the same qualitative type of evidence for its existence as something which is real? As an example, while a flying spaghetti monster is unreal, on the other hand wind, microwaves, radio and TV signals are real. What kind of evidence does an unreal spaghetti monster have for its existence? On the other hand, what kind of evidence does the wind, microwaves, radio and TV signals have for their existence even when they cannot be seen? The answer is that real things have qualitative evidence for their existence which unreal things do not possess. To place the existence of God into the same category as a flying spaghetti monster is a category fallacy based alone on the type of qualitative evidence we find for God’s existence (like hundreds of fulfilled prophecies in the Bible, many of which have come to pass just in the last century, and many more are presently on the verge of complete fulfillment).
To make an understatement, the qualitative evidence for God is obviously superior to the evidence for a flying spaghetti monster, which is why the overwhelming majority of intelligent and intellectually enlightened and intellectually honest people throughout history have preferred theism to atheism.
Hebrews 11:6 states , “… for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and that he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.”
To know God Hebrews 11:6 indicates several things:
1. A person must believe He exists.
2. A person must have concluded certain things about His character (He is a rewarder of those who diligently seek Him).
3. A person must respond to evidence about God (a person must “seek” Him).
In your fifth of 15 things people “should never say to an atheist,” you answered Paschal’s wager in a partially irrational manner. You stated that if you are wrong, “… Nothing is going to happen to me.”
You could only state that if you have constructed your own god. You appear to be implying that if there is a God, that god will not be concerned either about being recognized or ignored, nor about being either mocked or honored by his creatures! That approach appears to indicate you have manufactured your own god (idolatry) in your backup plan just in case you are wrong. That is an obvious miss about the character of the real God discernible through the “Bible” of nature (“… he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him,” Heb. 11:6). That rationalizing approach also seems to be indicating that you are claiming, “If there is a god, I am not afraid of the god I have created or hypothesized.”
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom,” (Psalm 111:10).
You claim you are being honest, and that you do not believe. Are you certain you are being honest where it really matters, with yourself? Or are you holding a delusion, and are you lying to yourself for whatever reason?
With someone as open about your atheism as you are, I suspect you have already heard more than enough compelling reasons to believe. Perhaps you do not feel you have a need for God? You stated your life would be the same with or without Him. Then I have some advice. It has been said, “There are no atheists in foxholes.” It may be that in some personal crisis experience you will one day realize you really do have a need for God. If that happens, all you have to do is accept His freely offered gift of eternal life given through His Son (John 3:16).
Your really stretching it, blind faith, this is 2021
You're absolutely correct in everything you say (exept for the name of the website wich I do not know, that may be corect to). But the title is misleading. When I saw it I finally thought "Wow! Someone has actually found a way to prove good diesn't exist". But I was wrong, because it's impossible at the moment.
Great video anyways! A thumbs up from me.
👌💯FACTS!!!
I think "God" is a human construction to fill in the gaps of what we couldn't explain years and years ago. Now with modern science and understanding we can give answers to the questions we once used "God" as and explanation for. As science develops we will answer more of these questions "God" is used for until religion adapts into something new.
what do u mean "I think" that is what it is
"I don't think you can disprove someone's belief" lol, this guy is hilarious.
Hey - I'm a Christian, and I just wanted to say that was a very fair, and reasonable argument. I believe in God because because he has revealed himself to men, and proved his power over nature by the resurrection at Easter. This is an event noted in history. But I also believe there is a first mover of the universe. You mentioned the question of where the universe came from, and I would ask that you investigate that question further. Ok, so there might be theories, or even one day proof, of the events that brought about our universe. But what made those events happen? Why is anything happening at all? Existence is self-proving. That something is in motion is self-proving of the fact that something set it in motion. God is the first mover. God is existence. I think any reasonable atheist should at least be able to follow the logic of this argument (I probably did not articulate it very well).
Another argument I like to use for the existence of something other than the physical world is the reality of the moral (or natural) law. Where does this come from?
John McWhirter your a diamond in the rough good job
John McWhirter while I am attempting to turn my life to Christ, Easter was a pagan ritual back in the time of the Vikings. 🤗
well back to clinic with you !
You seem like a very smart guy. I don't understand why you're dedicating so much time and effort to covering something you DON'T believe in. How is what you're doing any different than Christians talking about their disbelief in the morality of gay marriage? If you disagree with someone's beliefs or lifestyles, that's fine, but there's no need to try and change other people's minds. I believe you would be a lot more fulfilled dedicating your efforts to a cause you DO believe in.
He is, by telling people what he thinks over the internet.
He is dedicating efforts to a cause he believes in. He believes in objective truth, and that facts should be based on evidence. By arguing against dogma,religious oppression, and commonly held religious ideologies that have no factual backing, that's exactly what he's doing.
because his point is that religion is dangerous. if you saw your neighbor's house burning down would you not call 911?
I would have no problem with all the utterly ludicrous, irrational, and sociopathic claims about the supernatural that religion makes and treats as empirical fact, on the following conditions:
- You keep it to yourself and your community of ADULTS at all times, and especially when you're trying to be seen as providing benefit to the rest of society. Your claims of faith are bad enough on their own by being blatantly contradictory to intellectual integrity, but no society should have to tolerate your attempts at claiming a monopoly over common morality as well (when every piece of your supporting "evidence" is undermined by not living under a rock)
- You don't feed it to children as fact, guilt-tripping them for not sharing your devotion. Don't even introduce it at all to them except comparatively to every other religion, so you don't just propagate your beliefs by virtue of denying them an informed opinion
- You sure fucking do NOT try to influence social policy with it for everyone else. Theocracy is basically the lobotomized crack-whore version of walking up to a bunch of guys playing poker, and trying to convince them to give up because they're not following the official rules of Connect 4. You don't get to cry "intolerant!" when your own warped beliefs make exclusive claims to other people just for being born.

He's different because he's probably right
just ask Christian to prove Vishnu doesn't exist or Buddhist diva doesn't exist. If they cannot, then they just debunked their own "prove God doesn't exist" argument because they aren't Hindu or Tibetam Buddhist.
Humanity has looked for 2014 years or longer. Not as smidgen of proof over all that time should tell you something. (...) Head in the sand anyone?
"Not a smidgen of proof over all that time." What exactly are you looking for as proof? Are you looking for a specific revelation? Like a "Road to Damascus" experience? Are you looking for physical proof of a spiritual being? Are you just looking at nature and seeing if it points towards a creator? What exactly is "evidence" to you? It is absolutely obvious to me there is a God but most of the time I am called delusional when I say that. I guess you are only ""open minded"" if you reject everything besides atheism.
I am not looking for a doctrine/belief to guide me .The search for 'proof of a god' is a futile exercise (for me) .
My Harmony comes from deep within . Namaste.
"The search for proof of a god is a futile exercise (for me)." Isn't that a belief that guides you? Are thoughts only beliefs if they contain a God? Hopefully I'm not coming off as really crass because I'm not trying to. I'm actually asking if your definition of "belief" must contain a God and I wasn't sure how else to express it.
Jeff Cameron Dude, give up. These are what I like to call: "angry atheists." they will insult you and do their best to demoralize you, and they are so opposed to the idea of the existence of God, they actually dislike people who do believe. Don't waste your time with them.
Spend your time evangelizing to agnostics, or those who have questions, not those who will just hurt you.
Not too much fossil evidence on evolution either, to be honest. Also, get your history correct, religion with the Yahweeh/Eleheem God has been longer than 2014 years, and Christianity is younger than 2014 years. I would recommend you actually pick up a history book before you post something like that. :\
Yeah totally logical. Believing that somebody created the universe is as ridiculous as believing in the flying food monster.
Nobody wrote this comment, it just popped up here.
Then where did the universe come from?
Nothing and no one created the universe it just expanded from itself
It's not necesserly true that you have to be an atheist just because you don't believe in God.You could be an agnostic, which I describe like:
Atheist + Humility + Respect = Agnostic
Be an agnostic. You believe in what has been proven until something else comes up, but at the same time, you are down to earth. Instead of saying ''God doesn't exist'', you say ''I don't know if God does or doesn't exist, but I don't think he does until there's proof. Because honestly, everyone should be like this. I don't get it, just because you don't believe in God, what makes you think that you have the right to say that he doesn't exist? If you can't disprove God's existence, then you can't say he doesn't exist.
well how most people define it:
Agnostic: lack of knowledge of God. ie. I do not know if God is real.
Atheist: lack of belief in a God. ie. I do not believe in God.
I am an agnostic atheist. Therefor I do not know if God exists.... hell he might, even if the probability is extremely minuscule! But I am not going to believe in a God when I have no knowledge of him or evidence for him.
Both agnostic and Gnostic thought and atheist and theist thought. have to do with the answering of two completely different questions. Why is it so hard for people to understand this.
Being an atheist doesn't necessarily mean that a person is sure there is no god. We just don't believe there is a god. I don't think there is a way to prove that god doesn't exist, but since I haven't seen evidence of his existence, I don't believe. It is entirely possible to be both agnostic and an atheist. I actually think we get a little too caught up on the labels sometimes.
Many atheists are open to the proposition of god and would change views if there was more proof in favor of him. I think few atheists would say that they believe without a doubt that there is no god. Some atheists lack humility, but that could be said for any group of people. Many of us are open-minded, though.
I see the answer to your equation differently:
Atheist + Humility + Respect = Respectful atheist who is willing to consider the perspectives of other people :-)
Well, what makes people think, they can say that god DOES exist, when they can't prove that either?
Who is this directed at? I am confused.
Perry Holloman I was trying to reply back to Kristian Malkoun
Just a question, (not a Christian so don't think I telling this you know kinda bad way) but what if God is the reasons.... You know, what if God is like physics law...
A thing that should be to things affect, doesn't mean that it's a person who you have to pray, just what if there is a Good that never sent a religion
Every time you say the word, "Christian," why are your teeth gnashing?
Could it be that you have an unwanted guest in you? Turn to the Lord for help! He will help you. Jesus is the answer.
If it's wrong to say there's no such thing as God, then it must also to be wrong for a parent to tell their terrified child that there's no such thing as the Bogeyman.
You're confusing things. Both God and the Bogeyman are equally mythical.
Every knee shall bow"
The concept of god likely evolved from the mystery of death. The ancients must have wondered ; "How is it something/someone is alive and then they aren't alive". There must have been a lot of fear (as there is now) associated with nonexistence and death. So how do you resolve those mysteries and concerns? You make up a situation where death doesn't really happen. You invent a soul (spirit), afterlife and then a god to control it all.
It puts the mind at ease. Personal death becomes less of a daily concern and the loss of loved ones less painful. When you think of it, it's a great relief....you might say a blessing. But that doesn't affect its truthiness. God and spirits and the afterlife are things humans made up. If they weren't causing death and destruction on a daily basis, it might even be a good thing.
That’s what I’ve noticed as well. It’s a coping mechanism for life
Round two of my thoughts...can we just blend religion and science together and call it a day?
Too many contradictions. Ever since the age if science began, religion has countered with, "oh, magnet out specific god made it tht way". That's when the holy books started to be taken metaphorically, so don't give me the "metaphorical" crap. I'd love for science ad religion to be blended, however, it's just not happening.
Angel Torres no, sadly, we can't, religion and science are very different and incompatible
Heywood Yabloome Are you saying that it is impossible for a virgin to get pregnant?
preachers...
+Timothy Nyota Possible? Yes. A virgin can always have their DNA mutated during their conception in such a way that resulted in that woman becoming capable asexual reproduction just like some animals on this earth can. Is it likely? No, extremely unlikely as a matter of fact.
Atheist's will say I don't believe in God but I can't prove he dosent exist. A diciple of Jesus will say God is more real to me than my own life I don't just believe in him I know him. Now, the problem with what you are saying is you cant prove God exists but you cant prove that other invisble things dont exist ither.... Well God is alot more than someone you can't see, if you want to be scientific then you can't have a creation without a creator for 'scientifically' that's impossible
So therefore something must have caused this perfect existance to happen and you are being warned dear friend there is only one way, and that is Jesus he is the way the truth and the life.
If you want to be certain of this yourself then just for one moment of your life that could change your entire purpose just go on your knees, imagine what if Jesus was real? Cry out to him he will hear you if you earnestly seek him The best way to know God is to go to him directly, be blessed in Jesus name.
Thank you!! Here's an example of why everything needs a creator.
Imagine this: you're strolling through the woods and you see a painting of Mona Lisa. Another person comes up behind you. You say "Man, I wonder who created that painting" and then the other man says "Are you crazy? that painting was obviously created by a mixture of berries that got blown onto it from the wind!"
Who's right? Obviously you are if you said someone painted it. You can't necessarily prove that it was a painter, but it'd be impossible for it not to be. Same with the world and Jesus.
God bless :)

Why does the man doing the videos always have the silliest look on his face? He's scratching his head , he's making weird hand gestures,he's looking off to the side,or he just has a dumb look on his face.He sounds smart but I don't think he could change a tire or light bulb so I won't look to him for life's biggest questions.What if he is wrong about God?
look some hitchens or dawkins videos them, or some comedians like carlin or gervais , they arent that silly or dumb look, maybe there you'll find some answers

You are a liar and a deceiver that needs to get a real life ambition.
SuperCal you're just attacking me, you fail even as christian LOL
Oh man, It took me about 17 years for me to become an atheist. I quited this thing called religion about 1 year ago.
I was raised as a christian , my parents are both very religious . they forced me to go to church every week , but i also tought i was doing the right thing. I really belived in what i was doing.My parrents think of me as a rebel , as im to young and that may be age-related.
That did teach me one lesson, How easy is for people to be manipulated , to be decived and all that under their own nose , with their own acceptance . I find it very similar to Comunism (I'm from Roumania(ex-comunist-country)) , and other brain washing theoryes.
I am god.
That's the true attitude of an atheist.
All hail Shut Up And Drink, our lord and savior.
Shut Up and Drink you are not God. You see, God is so holy that you'd die if you even look at him. But you're human.
No, I am god.
Cool Vinhson Pham HD good joke
IT TRULY TAKES LIIVNG FAITH TO BELIEVE IN GOD, AND HE IS A REWARDER OF ANYONE WHO SINCERELY SEEKS HIM. HE DESIRES FOR NO ONE TO PERISH.
if he doesn't then why doesn't he prove his existence?
+Donald Young Then explain all the children that die of cancers??????? explain all the miscarriages - since most religious people claim life begins at conception, What possible sin could a fetus have done to deserve death??? What about all the car accidents? Was everyone killed in a crash a hethen sinner? What about all the murders? - They all deserved to die???
All you religious morons speak without thinking about what your comments actually imply. If your god did exist, he has clearly shown that the Bible is right about one thing "God is no respecter of persons"

It truly takes faith and God never said that we wouldnt have tests, trials, and tribulations. We also live a cursed creation due to sin originating with the first human couple, Adam and Eve. The only way you and I can be spiritually restored from the carnal man to the Spiritual Man is by means of Jesus Christ. He was a perfect sacrifice to restore what the first human couple lost. I will be praying for you. Also a good read is a book called a Case For Christ, and Case For A Creator by Lee Strobel. I hope you will check them out.
Donald Young - “Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen”. In other words, faith is pointless and irrelevant WISHFUL THINKING. It has no bearing of any kind on the factual nature of anything.
Once again you suggest that children, infant babies, and unborn fetus’, through no fault of their own, are evil sinners that do not deserve gods protection - this is the only logical conclusion of your claim of original sin in answer to my question of why children die of cancers and the unborn miscarriage...AND, you completely ignore my question about the god commanded infanticide of tens of thousands of babies in Numbers:31. If you have such great ‘faith’ in your god, why can’t you explain the justification for his actions? Tell us all why you think it’s okay to slaughter little babies - or worship a god that demands it?

-As I suspected, you're another religious moron that runs around spouting off like some kind of authority on Christianity - when, in fact, you don't even know what's in the Bible you profess to love so much. And so you run and hide when confronted with the FACT that you worship an evil god. Sad really. But the truly pitiful thing is that you will ignore all facts and continue to worship the imaginary and evil Jehovah rather than admit you have been wrong all these years.
If god didint exist than why is evrything so perfect nose to smell to legs to walk oxygen to breathe comon guys really?^_^
its something called adaptation. you do realize that millions of species go extinct because their life cant be supported on this earth. also the ability to breathe doesnt prove the existence of a magical sky wizard
look animals died of flood and just wait man just wait
Why did god make the great flood. Because of the sin in the world. God doesnt make mistakes right? Then why did he flood the world? He was wrong to thats why he promised to never flood the world again. In deuteronomy the bible says that if a girl is raped she has to marry the rapist. In exodus, it says you can beat your slave as long as he heals in 2 days. In 1st Corinthians it says women cannot speak in church. Also in 2nd kings theres a story of your "God" sending 2 bears mauling 42 children to death becaude they made fun of a bald guy. Is ANY of that just?

I've watched both religious and atheist videos and I've came to the conclusion that desism is the way to go
Deism.
DEISM AND ALTRUISM IS TRUTH!!!!!!!!!!
GOD Exists Without Answering Prayers.
There Is An AfterLife Proven By Out Of Body Experiences.
@@SpatialAndTemporalEvangelicals An afterlife is not proven by out of body experiences. Out of body experiences are caused by DMT. www.frontiersin.org/articles/10.3389/fpsyg.2018.01424/full
If you want to learn more, look up, "DMT out of body experiences."
not quite - actually as more we explain there is more out there what we can attribute to god. each explanation tends to open up more questions.
"god does not play dice with the universe" a quote from a person who stopped questioning for 1 second.
I have had the same exact conversation with someone a couple of years ago. It came very close to " word for word". Agree 100%.
This is a never ending debate . No one can prove that God exists and neither can anyone prove that he doesn't. So believe what suits you .
This dude has it all back wards. ALL of you out there. If you didn't know. You DON'T pick God! He picks you! If you wonder why He hasn't picked you, mayby you should ask Him! As Jesus said "Ask and you shall recieve" but absolute sincerity is a MUST! If one want's to see a show or concert, you must buy a ticket, or no show. The ticket to see God is faith! May God hear your prayers is my prayer for you ALL I'm not here to prove God exists. It is up to you to prove that God exists! That's if you want to. Everything are choices we make, including where we end up after our last breath!
people who need proof...lack the most important thing...faith
When someone says "Prove that God doesn't exist," they are almost always Christians. The counter is "Prove that there is only one true god."
I know that God exists because He gave me the Holy Spirit and everytime i pray to Him i could feel his presents,and the devil wants everyone to believe that He dosent exists.
Hi my name is Myla and I was miraculously healed by a faith healer when I was 10. Since then, I have never doubted GOD'S Love for his people. I was prayed over and touched by healing hand through someone who was blessed by God to heal in his name. So, there you go..whenever a thought would come through and make me doubt God's existence, there's a question and only one answer that comes to my head, Then who healed me then? Your guess is as good as mine! So herman, I believe you're a smart guy. YOu know the answer RIGHT?
