    Pitch your religion!

    I find that humanism,naturalism, rationalism and full skepticism leads to that more abundant life!:yes: I find no absurdity other than the absurdity of the supernatural and the paranorma,which are superfluities to natural phenomena. I state full skepticism as some skeptics don't apply...

    Experience rather than experiment is the basic source of human knowledge

    Paarsurrey, hardly. No evidence comes forth for any revelation, and all are mere manifestations of personal mental states as are all religious experiences, and to argue that the supernatural intrudes, begs the question. Unconfirmed intuitions fare no better? What then are those other venues of...

    How did Satan get to the garden of Eden?

    Satan doesn't exist! The Garden of Eden did not exist and has no meaning for us as a metaphor other than how misanthropic the writers about it were!

    Religious Scientists

    Religious scientists compartmentalize: as scientists they would see no divine intent behind natural causes, but as religious people, they do. See the thread arguments about God, to see why no evidence comes forth for Him,only misrepresentation of evidence. Science finds no miracles, no...

    Too many religions

    As Theodore Strange's argument from unbelief argues in "Non-belief and Evil," that so many of us lack belief itself counts against God. He speaks with a forked tongue with all the sects and scriptures that people can interpret so differently. God, had He really wanted a personal relationship...

    Can you believe in the infallabilty of the bible?

    waitasec,yes, in the spirit of the divine protection racket!:shout That blood atonement bespeaks savagery and is as contemptible as that blood sacrifice of children to appease gods and so forth!:eek: I prefer expiating otherwise. That blood sacrifice alone ought to make more gnu atheists!:cover...

    Are Humans Animals

    We are great apes, the third chimpanzee after the chimps and the bonobos. We already act as animals as we are such to the consternation of creationists! Indeed, we can have more sex- ooh!- than other great apes as we are composed that way. Creationists lie for the sake of morality, feeling that...

    arguments about God and the presumption of naturalism and the ignostic-Ockham

    Aquinas refutes Aquinas! He makes the superfluity argument that why bring in God when natural causes suffice,and then tries to overcome it with his five failed arguments. As gnu atheist,Percy Bysshe Shelley argues:" To suppose that some existence beyond, or above them [ the descriptions-laws- of...

    Could a society be structured solely on the teachings of Jesus?

    I wouldn't want any such cult leader to be near me! He commanded that his sheep love him more than others, have faith-logicide and has a silly and dangerous ethic. Turn the other cheek invites hitting it and so forth, not pacifism! He more than overstates like other rabbis. I'll lust as much as...

    arguments about God and the presumption of naturalism and the ignostic-Ockham

    Per Lamberth's reduced animism argument, theism is just that, one grand spirit behind all Nature instead of the many of full animism or polytheism,and is just as superstitious. The Coyne-Mayr-Lamberth atelic/telenomic argument notes no divine intent and thus to invoke one reflects animism...

    Why would god choose the Jesus sacrifice as the plan for salvation?

    jmvizanko, faith doth that to people! Lo, Spong, Haught and other advanced theologians as examples of faith-induced nonsense!

    Ignosticism vs theism and atheism.

    We ignostics not only find the cataphatic attributes of God vacous but also the apophatic not this, not that to be not anything period! As He has no referents as revealed @ the thread naturalism, arguments.., He cannot exist!

    What's so impressive about the Bible?

    I find errantists as funny as inerrantists! What are the wondrous metaphors for all the evil passages of the anthologies the Testament and the Tanakh? I prefer the better fables- Esop's!

    Is it Possible to Experience God?

    To experience God or any other supernatural matter is to experience ones own thoughts! To argue otherwise, begs the question. First show that He or whatever exists in order for people to experience Him or it!

    Why would god choose the Jesus sacrifice as the plan for salvation?

    We naturalists lack faith, but we have trust in science, and contrary to fellow skeptic John L. Schellenberg, its ever changing is its glory! It and other rational methods provide the best provisional knowledge, not the Truth of the paranormal and the supernatural superstitions, what my friend...

    the definitive disproof of the free will excuse

    Some blather that we would be equal to God had we free will and a guarantee not to do wrong. Hardly. Why then couldn't we be as the archangels, the angels and the cherubim with that guarantee? Yea, Yahweh should've told them to partake of that tree in order to know right from wrong were He...

    Ignosticism vs theism and atheism.

    Know God = no God! See my signature! As the weight of evidence presents no divine intent, then Lamberth's atelic or teleonomic argument presents the case that therefore, no intent lies behind miracles, the Big Bang, patterns as designs and so forth, and therefore He has no referents as Grand...

    Why doesnt god kill Satan?

    As no Go exists, no Satan Exists! Satan was Yahweh's good angel in Job when He murderously tested Job's love! Lucifer is the bad one. Any religious who cannot see that no God would allow Satan don't appreciate morality1 What speciousness! And yes, such people might yet be nice! How many of...

    I need definition help!!

    And then there is the kind of faith-head like haughty John Haught who declares that we atheists should be like the Existentialist ones who take atheism to its distressing outcome! John Loftus told him that was just a straw man and that we can be ever so exuberant, in effect! Haught said OK, but...
