Atheists Don't Exist

Don't skirt off, it's about to get interesting.

I do not have to support your illogical arguments.

This is logic 101,

You are making a positive claim of the Abrahamic existing, so where is the empirical evidence to support that claim that can be tested and proven by a non-believer and that doesn't require religious faith or belief? I have explained to you that you are making the positive claim so the burden of proof rests on you to prove your claim that god exists to be factually true because it isn't true just because you make it or that you agree with your unsupported claim. Your religious belief, your semantic games or any fallacy that you can concoct doesn't prove god to be true.

Absent the empirical proof to support your claim we revert to the idea that your claim is not true and that god does not exist.

Show one post of mine (besides this one of course) in which I refer to "Abrahamic" concepts. Stop wasting my time, lady.

What would you accept as proof?

Something that is testable by a person of any faith or no faith. Something physical that cannot be explained by physics or logic.

What god are you referring to if it isn't the Judea-Christian god? Other gods are not typically referred to by god but by other names such as Ra, Quetzalcoatl, Zeus, Jupiter Thor, Gaia, Krishna, Vishnu.......

See? You don't know what you're talking about in these pestiferous posts of yours. Try getting straight on my views before presuming to criticize them.

What god are you referring to because only the Christian god is referred to as god? I'm not amused by your semantic games as a way to weasel out of your claims.

You mean like raise the dead, similar to Lazarus? Nah, that was already done and people didn't believe. I know 'part the Red Sea.' Nope that didn't make them believe either. I'm sorry, but I think God is tired of requests for miracles and magic tricks for every generation. How about you wait, like everyone else, for the grand finale. I promise, you'll see the likes of which has never entered the mind of a human. Won't be absolutely no doubts then. Since God is your life that's what I believe he wants you to believe in more than any outward manifestation. Hence the hiding.

This assertion of yours: "because only the Christian god is referred to as god" -- this assertion is ridiculous. As are your persistent assertions about my views, which you quite obviously don't understand or even know, I strongly suspect. Please pollute elsewhere.

None of those have ever been proven to have ever happened. Those are also religious beliefs.

I am not more impressed by your religious threats than I am by a 4 year old telling me that I wont get any gifts from Santa if they aren't permitted to have cookies before dinner. A person needs to believe in your myths before your threats have any meaning.

You could just as well tell me that Vishnu will reincarnate me as a cockroach because I ate beef.

WTH are you talking about? I'm talking about you receiving a great reward by becoming One with God at the end of your time and you get a threat out of it. My God doesn't judge people or create them for ultimate harm but rather makes them go thru this life in order to grow and become unique individuals. If you were born in paradise, you wouldn't appreciate it because you wouldn't have anything to compare it too.

There are no gods, so none of what you wrote is going to happen, no-one is hiding because magic sky people do not exist.

I an not "now claiming" anything. Do your homework. I have distanced my post and threads from any religious claims about the nature of God going back more than two years in this forum. All of my arguments and claims concern the existence of God as a purely philosophical concept and have had nothing to do with the thousand religious concepts of the nature of God. If you can't get this straight, you shouldn't be posting on my views.

The concept of god exists because we have more than 200o names of gods in various religions but that in no way means that any god actually exists because we also have words to describe unicorns, leprechauns, bigfoot, Nessie, and jackalopes.

You are getting more and more desperate as a way to keep your claims afloat.

I cannot become one with or receive a reward from what does not exist in any empirical way.

How is your god different from Ra, Jupiter, Zeus, Nabu, Enlil Thor or Krishna?

What paradise do you speak of?

Your erroneous posting continues. No, the concept of God preceded those two thousand religious names of gods by two hundred thousand years. The unicorn, leprechaun crap is New Atheist ignorance at its most blatant. Do your homework and when you have something other than close-minded New Atheist baloney to post, let's hear from you again.
 
Angel said:
Your post was written by a person, not by an atheist. Your personal testimony is not proof, by Internet Skeptical standards. I've proved God's existence a half dozen times in just the last two weeks -- look in the appropriate threads.

You have never proved anything, other than all of your arguments are BS. Even your signature is BS, after all you do not really exist. And there is no way for you to prove to me that you exist. As far as I know the account 'Angel' could be troll farm account ran by more than one person or the account could be a high school project by a group of kids on a debate team. Though you would think that they would be much better.

At any rate there is no actual evidence of 'Angel's existence. The fact is that were are all anonymous here, with no way of knowing that a poster is not an AI experiment.

Same can be said for the account "FreedomFromAll." Congratulations, you have taken your first steps in philosophical skepticism. Stay with it. Don't fall back into Internet Skepticism.
 
We have established that atheists exist. Now what?

No. It has been long established that Angle is incapable of taking in any idea he does not like. And that this is his chosen identity.

Are you still talking about Angel, Timothy? Tsk, tsk. How about something on point? Can you "prove" to the satisfaction of the Internet Skeptic that atheists exist?

No gods, blah, blah, blah. Intellectually disengaged from even speculation.
There is no debate without even conceding the possible premise.
There's just you two parroting each others dumb monkey act, 'see no evil, hear no evil, speak no evil.'
Big cop out. Like dogs, if you can't eat it, piss on it or hump it, it's not real.

You believe in love but cannot prove it physically exists.

The concept of your supposed God does not mean that God exists. We can discuss the concepts of anything without in any way saying or claiming that it exists. A concept only means that we can define what a god is, it doesn't in any way means that it exists. We can also define what a medieval dragon is, what Godzilla would be or what a UFO is. Once again just because we have a concept of god doesn't mean that any sentient supernatural creator deity exists.

You are desperate to hold on to your claim of a god and it shows in your increasingly militant arguments.

What is the difference between a New Atheist an old athiest because the world atheist (a-theist/non-belief) hasn't changed its meaning. Is "New Atheist" a strawman like your definition of an "internet skeptic" that only you know the meaning of?
