    Why Everyone's Bored With Atheists

    Immaterial to my point. You asserted falsehoods and I simply denied them, therefore, I feel there is nothing more to discuss. Your OP is poorly thought out and somewhat puerile to say the least.

    Why Everyone's Bored With Atheists

    1) False 2) False 3) False Your assertions appear to be based upon prejudice.

    The Origin of the Universe...

    Neither, for no one knows how the universe was created, so any declaration of thus is purely speculative.

    Dawkins said that if he had to choose between Christianity and Islam, he would choose Christianity "every single time."

    Well there is that, but clearly I was referring to historical trends spanning centuries, such as wars, purges etc. 'Largely' was a key word placed in order to prevent rabbit holing. We could instead ask the question did Christianity 'grow up' and leave its primitive and violent history behind...

    Not really.

    Dawkins said that if he had to choose between Christianity and Islam, he would choose Christianity "every single time."

    Not really. It is simply a comment on the fact that Islam is still mired in barbarity where Christianity has largely left its brutal history behind.

    Atheist Comedian turns to God after Hearing These 5 Words!

    Apparently it is all too difficult to relate directly and we have to watch a video. Meh.

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    I love all the little compartments they want to put us in, like 'atheism is a belief', therefore we are simply 'believers' too. Of course, that's just a distraction from the real question and I often find the deliberate conflation of 'confidence' (e.g. in one's mechanic) with 'faith' to...

    Bible Manuscripts...Should You Trust Them...Do You Trust Them?

    It is a little over simplistic to declare ancient texts and authors as inaccurate. Historiography in the ancient world was not all that concerned with accuracy. Ancient historians combined rumour, belief, anecdote and myth in their narratives and it is the job of the historian to sift through...

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    You cannot demonstrate any of these assertions to be true. I don't have the burden of proof, so I don't need to provide an actual argument. Was that not the theme of my original post here? If you could demonstrate your god exists without question, then of course I would examine the evidence...

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    So your god is exempt from this? Is that not special pleading? Well, I just don't believe mythology to be true, or the failed philosophical arguments used to justify their existence to be sound, so that is hardly in 'opposition'. I simply know that you cannot demonstrate your god to exist...

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    I demonstrated that knowledge can be acquired autonomously? If so, it can be justified autonomously through reason and observation. How does your god justify its knowledge? Or does your syllogism require special pleading to work? If so, it is fallacious. What is this 'atheist world view'? I...

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    Your argument is an elaborate argument from incredulity. We do not know how life and the universe began and that's all that can be really said on the subject. Even the current models of the formation of the universe are being called into question by the JWST. If we do not know, how can one...

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    Actually, I do apologise, for in my haste to leave for work, I used an inappropriate adjective. 'Undemonstrative' should read as 'indemonstrable'. My mistake, for it was not intended to be a personal attack. But of course, your syllogism is flawed. Knowledge can be gained by experience, and...

    How to Argue for Atheism Effectively

    I'm now off to work, and I'll check in later to see if there is any reason to believe the noise thrown at me this morning.
