Given that there are several questions directed at atheists, I thought it would be a good time for one extra. My question is "Which hell is the one for you?"
Obviously you cannot truly decide what would really work, given that you don't seek God's blessing on your choices; but what if you...
Science is not going to change just because you want it so badly.
Because Science is like a proud beautiful lady, like the one in the
clip "Roxy Music -- Avalon'' YouTube.
Established proud beings are

I can see why some feel that way, I used to feel that way, too.
The concept that science has all the answers has been growing in the secular world.
Science is based on the scientific method, a process by which truth is discovered, including objective observation, testing, hypotheses, etc. To...
Dr. Richard Dawkins in a religious movie [Expelled: No Intelligence
Allowed] said something like this: ``I am atheist because there is no
proof that God exists." I believe it is incomplete, so, let me try to read
between the lines: ``I am atheist because there is no [globally accepted]

Perhaps you have seen Ben Stein's "Expelled: No Intelligence Allowed", there is shown the war between Creationism and Evolution.
Let me find the reason for this war.

Q: Atheism is not a doctrine. Theism is the doctrine. Atheism is the rejection of that doctrine. It's not a doctrine by itself. It means that when a theist claims "God exists!", that the atheist then replies "I don't believe you". Or when the theist asks "do...
DEFINITION
"Atheism is in the broadest sense an absence of belief in the existence of deities. Less broadly, atheism is a rejection of the belief that any deities exist. In an even narrower sense, atheism is specifically the position that there are no deities." (Wikipedia 2021 with references)...
If God was invented by priests, then godlessness was invented by atheists? How is it better then?
An atheist Bob might reply: "By analogy, smokers have invented smoking; and who then has invented non-smoking? Non-smokers, maybe?"
Me in reply: "Non-smoking as well as a sober lifestyle was...
I know this will be hard to sell, but I'm going to try.
From our earliest Paleolithic ancestors, the unknown has always been framed under a paradigm in which the presumption has been there is a sentience, a mover, behind observations humans have been unable to explain. From questions about how...
Here is a popular video featuring Richard Dawkins which has almost 60 000 likes:
I know, many atheists here don't agree with Richard Dawkins.
Anyway, since thousands of Youtube likes speak a clear language, I thought I could make it a thread.
Whan asked what if he is wrong with the...
Hi everyone my name's Sean, and I identify as an atheistic satanist. I can't wait to debate/talk about religion here. I know there's a lot of questions/misconceptions about satanism. So if you have any questions, feel free to ask :)
If an atheist becomes more like Orthodox Christian (atheist becomes closer to Orthodox Christianity), then he becomes closer to any religion, e.g. pantheism, Islam, Catholicism, antropotheism, deism.
Proof:
Atheism is infinitely remote from any religion.
Thus, the Pascal Wager has perfect...

I'm posting this here because I've forgotten how to post in the atheist DIR.
For those who identify as atheist, imagine you have been transported back in time to convince Genghis Khan that rape is wrong using words only. What do you say to him to convince him from an atheist perspective?
And go!
Question for anyone who wants to answer.
In your path, religion, lack of religion, walk, etc. do you:
Spend time fact checking the reasons why you believe in some things and why you reject other things?
Use a systematic approach to determine if what you beleif or hold by is realistic?

MY CONTRIBUTION
The author of the paradox calls the sentence "All Ravens are black" as a hypothesis. However, we must call it as a part of the definition of the raven; namely, the raven is defined by form, by size, by actions, by sound, and by color. All key characteristics must...
Varying theologies and religions have diverse concepts of a God. As a theist, what would be your number one argument for the existence of God? Of course the response to this would naturally beg for a definition of what you think God is. Is he a transcended God, is he a man, is he a pantheistic...
