5 Scientific Reasons Why Atheists Are Wrong
Even Darwin regretted the lie of evolution
If evolution were correct, and humans evolved from monkeys, then why are monkeys still around today? There is really no explanation for this, yet this heathen ideal is still taught in our schools. No doubt thanks to the agenda’s being pushed by gays and their liberal co-conspirators to destroy our youth and convert the nation to communism.
Towards his twilight years, as he faced the prospect of burning in Hell forever for his blasphemous ways, even Charles Darwin himself admitted that he regretted sparking the lie of evolution. Atheists, however, still do not want to admit it is wrong as the only other explanation would be God.
The big bang theory is impossible
Something cannot come from nothing. It is a scientific impossibility. The idea that one second there wasn’t anything then there was is frankly offensive to one’s intelligence. The big bang relies on an unknown spark, kind of like the gunman on the grassy knoll theory, that mixed with chemicals and blew up into planets and suns and people and plants.
Christians know God made the Earth and sun and stars. Then he put the people and animals and plants here. You can see it in the intelligent design of foods such as bananas and kiwis. They are made to be eaten easily by humans. If that isn’t enough scientific proof for you then you must be blind.
There is lots of historic evidence of Jesus
The Bible is not the only historic document that confirms the divinity of Jesus. Many scholars from the time spoke of the miracles he preformed during his travels. Often times non-believers will claim that these passages are faked. They only do this because the existence of Jesus threatens every lie they tell.
The shroud of Turin, however, is something they can’t just shrug off. It is real physical evidence that is still around today, and has been thoroughly investigated by Christian scientists who have proven it is the actual burial shroud of the Christ. Many websites confirm this fact. It is a fact and has been proven.
If God didn’t create the Earth, why does everything work so well?
It can’t be coincidence that we have air to breath, water to drink, and churches to pray in. God intended it that way. If he didn’t, then why is Christianity the most popular religion in the world? Why is America, a Christian nation, the most powerful in the world? This can’t be something that just happened to occur.
The fact that every ecosystem in the world acts in accordance with itself and survives is proof of intelligent design. If it all just happened, as evolution and the big bang seem to suggest, there would be chaos everywhere. Instead, the more we delve into scientific fields, we find order. Order that can only be provided by a benevolent creator.
Miracles happen everyday
Documented cases of sick people being healed through prayer happen everyday, but go unreported by the liberal atheist media. Either that, or they get mocked by hordes of Godless Internet users on sites such as YouTube or Yahoo Answers. It is sad to see such free media with such a great potential to spread the word of Jesus get used for such travesties. Covering up the truth is often what Satan’s minions do.
Even scientific studies have confirmed the power of praying to God and Jesus for help. Atheists always cite studies, but strangely they never cite these studies. Because they only use science when it falls in their favor. To them, anything that isn’t liberal or Godless simply must not be heard. When one of their ‘theories’ is supposedly proven, they are all over it. When God’s existence is proven, they are quiet as a tick.

All atheists believe in evolution, which means they don’t believe in morality and think we should all act like animals. Don’t lie now. According to you, there is no reason we CAN’T act like animals, rather than our own choices. All atheists don’t believe in the moral values of the bible.. come on now why do still need to respect other people when you atheists don’t believe in the bible’s moral teachings???

Imagine a jewelry store with no glass cases, no cameras and no guards. You walk in and see beautiful gems sitting in the open, and you know you could take any that you like and no one would ever know or punish you. But you also know that the store is owned by a very poor widow who might not eat that night if you steal from her. What is the moral course of action? Obviously stealing from the widow is wrong, whether or not you would be caught. Christians argue that of course it is wrong because, even if no security camera will see you, God will see you and punish you. But why would God punish you? Because God says stealing is wrong. But now we have a circular argument: Stealing is wrong because God will punish you, and God will punish you because stealing is wrong. Atheists recognize this logical error and seek a more concrete definition of morally correct behavior. Atheists see God as just another security camera that should have no influence on whether or not your act is moral. The suffering of the woman is reason enough to call your theft wrong. Atheists believe that moral behavior is completely separate from the threat of punishment, and should instead be based on the avoidance of suffering. But what gives atheists the idea that suffering is bad? Many philosophers have struggled with this, and there are many theories, but it is easiest to understand in terms of (wait for it!)… evolution! Humans evolved as social animals. A wasp, which is not social, doesn’t care two tics for the suffering of another wasp, and why should it? When another wasp suffers it’s just more fruit, or more little bugs, for the 1st wasp. But for social animals like chimps, prairie dogs and people, we survive best when those in our group are also doing well. Millions of years of evolution has instilled a fundamental desire to avoid causing undue harm to those we see as peers because organisms in our groups who did so lowered the group’s chances of survival. Indeed, this form of moral behavior must be evolutionary since believers in multiple gods, single gods and no gods all hold relatively the same ideas on moral behavior. Laws against stealing, murder and so forth have been around long before Christianity, and are apparent in every society. Evolution explains the instinct to prevent suffering, but not the moral justification. Chimps who bully other chimps are often ostracized or even punished by the group, but we have no way of knowing whether chimps view bad behavior as simply antisocial or actually immoral. The concept of morality is a philosophical application of the codes for behavior passed on to us by evolution. Morality uses theory of mind to extend the rules of conduct from simply “don’t hurt someone in your own group” to “hurting is bad.” Obviously there will be some gray area here (hurting an enemy in battle is often not considered immoral), which is why humans struggle with ethical dilemmas (is it moral to smother a crying baby in order to save an entire village [MASH finale], or kill the man who murdered your brother?). If morality were based on rules handed down from the divine, then everyone who believes in the divine should be able to agree on every moral conundrum. Yet some moral questions are simply too complicated: is it wrong to steal bread to feed a starving child? is it wrong to let an ill person die if they so choose? We see these as morally complex questions because while our evolutionary instincts say one thing (killing is bad, stealing is bad) our intellectual morality says another (suffering is bad). Atheist view morality as a matter of both instinct and philosophy.
To summarize, atheists believe that life is like that jewelry store. We don’t look for security cameras because whether or not there is one doesn’t matter. We care about the suffering we might cause by our actions because we can empathize with suffering. We understand suffering because we have all experienced it, and we do not want to increase the suffering of others just as we do not want to increase our own suffering. If 2 people enter the store and one does not steal because he sees a security camera, and the other does not steal because he pities the old woman, whom would you call moral?

“Even Darwin regretted the lie of evolution”
Nowhere does it ever say that this happened. It would be a spectacular story for Christianity if it were true, but it isn’t. You’re bearing false witness.
“If humans evolved from monkeys, why do we still have monkeys?”
This proves you have no understanding of evolution at all. Evolution doesn’t say we evolved from monkeys. We share a common ancestor. Evolution is FACT. It happened, and continues to happen. Whoever’s still debating this is seriously behind.
“The big bang theory is impossible, something cannot come from nothing”
It seems you don’t understand the Big Bang theory, either. But, anyways, don’t you Christians believe that God created the Earth, the sun, the stars, etc.? That sounds like something coming from nothing, or as you said, a scientific impossibility. So you’re obviously contradicting your own belief.
“Documented cases of sick people being healed through prayer happen everyday”
What about the ones who aren’t healed? What about the ones who die? They go ignored. But the one out of twenty who is healed has clearly been saved by God. That is nonsense.
“Why is Christianity the most popular religion in the world?”
Childhood indoctrination. Millions of people incapable of independent thought. It’s not about which religion is right, it’s about which has the most unintelligent people blindly supporting it. Chalk one up for JEEEEZUS.

Carbon dating grows more accurate the older an object is, due to the radiation measurements now compared to the projected radiation measurements then.

That’s probably because they became Atheists in the first place because their pastors said they were possessed and they were ostracized for believing that science proves the Bible. Then to be picked on to the point where they can’t even go to ANY church for fear of starting an argument, then get picked on for that. Then OF COURSE they aren’t in the best shape. The key is to realize that all religions focus on the same God and same beliefs and that the details really don’t matter as long as you can be with God. I would consider myself a Christian, but because I can prove your Bible with science and math, you call me possessed, thank you ignorant “Christians.”

I love it when dipshits talk about stuff like this without any clue whatsoever.
Humans didn’t evolve from monkeys, we evolved from a similar ancestor. The reason monkeys are still around is because they deviated away from our ancestor just slightly while we did it greatly.
Something cannot come from nothing. If God can come from nothing, then why can’t a chaotic ‘big bang’ come from nothing?
I believe Jesus existed. It’s him being the Son of God and him actually performing the miracles that people are constantly told about that’s up for debate, especially when you consider the time he was born in and how the people acted, as well as recording devices being primitive.
Everything’s also one, big, chaotic mess. After all, if God could create things at will, why create man? Why have man’s faith be tested? Why not created man in Heaven so that there’s no doubt to his existence? He’s supposed to be all-knowing, so he knew that there would be those who didn’t believe in him. There’s no excuse, rather than put man in Heaven whatsoever to completely end the debate once and for all, he put us on Earth. There’s too much chaos going on all at once. Granted, it’s flowing smoothly, the fact is, at some point, it’s going to come crashing down everywhere.
As for ‘miracles’, that one is barely debatable. What you call a miracle, someone else could call a curse, and vice versa. Not only that, but you can say anything and get away with it. I’m a pediatrician with a degree in computer engineering. What, you can’t prove me wrong? Well then, that must mean I’m right, aren’t I?

I personally do not like the classic “You’re thinking of the wrong kind of monkey” because technically, evolution doesn’t suggest we came from monkeys at all. A macaque is a monkey. A gorilla is a great ape. No tail- not a monkey. Both creationists and evolutionists frequently miss the mark on that point. We are RELATED to real monkeys but evolutionists, don’t make the point “You’re thinking of the wrong thing” if you aren’t using the right terminology for clarification either.
Anyway, my favorite response to “If we came from monkeys, why are there still monkeys?” I originally heard from TheThinkingAtheist on YouTube which better answers “If America came from England, why is there still England?”. Evolution is not like growing up. It doesn’t mean that ALL members of a species will eventually turn into the same thing or even anything else (the dragonfly hasn’t changed for billions of years), just that each living thing has the capacity to experience a genetic mutation in-uteri that will alter its form in a way potentially helpful to its survival. If America came from England, why is there still England? Because not everyone in England became a Pilgrim. If we came from monkeys (great apes) why are there still monkeys (great apes)? Because not every great ape became a caveman. Some Englishmen stayed behind. Some great apes didn’t mutate. Understand now, creationists that used this argument?

Well, my dear lady, if we’re to accept the sciences your type want taught in public schools, we must settle upon the condition that all people are descendant of monkeys. In the view of atheism, we are merely monkeys with higher mental function. This though may not seem like much, but given time and twists within the courts of law, could be the basis of crass bestial laws that allow relationship between species.

Matt, approximately 3000 years ago (half the age of the universe), it’s possible that some monkeys were good at bipedal movement (e.g. walking, jumping, break-dancing) and some were not.
Those who were good at it were eventually given jobs as slaves by the white race, while those who were not good at such human-like feats remained on the tree tops.
While working as slaves, they started learning human languages like English, and started wearing clothes like us. This explains why there is such a big difference between the black people we see today and the monkeys we see in Africa. The black species have whites to thank for helping them evolve from monkeys.

The Southern white “Dixie-crats” were the conservative evangelical nut jobs, like you, who supported slavery, racism and bigotry. Most of the abolitionists prior to the war, were Quakers. BTW everyone in America for the most part was Christian at that time, so saying “Christian Republicans” is redundant.

In establishing the case for the existence of God, we attempt to present clear reasoning that will lead to a rational conclusion, namely, that the universe, mankind, etc., are not self-explanatory. Rather, logical minds must conclude that a Supreme Being exists. In our approach, we are affirming a proposition for which positive evidence exists.
Atheism, on the other hand, is a totally negative system. It denies much and affirms nothing. It robs one of hope and offers emptiness in exchange, asserting that there is no transcendent Cause for the universe, and that man is a fortuitous combination of molecules. Morality does not exist, or if it does, man, as his own god, determines its nature.
Atheism is a philosophical system of contradiction, chaos, and confusion.

The moral implications of a belief system have nothing to do with whether it is a true or false system. Furthermore, to say that Atheism is a belief that “robs one of hope” and that man is “a fortuitous combination” is a straw-man. In fact, atheism does not regard the origin of man in any form, and furthermore the idea that one needs a belief in a god in order to have hope is ludicrous on its surface.
Also, maybe if you actually educated yourself on how the process of evolution actually occurs, you would understand that your “life originating from accident” quote is taken far out of context. The actual context of that statement is regarding the idea that life as we know it, with all current organisms as they are now, forming like that is absolutely foolish.
Evolution explains in great detail how complex organisms can develop over many generations from simpler ones. It is the proponents of Creationism or “Intelligent Design” that suggest that today’s species arose from nothing but fairy tales and magic.

I probably have forgotten more about religion and science than you will ever know, Dick.
Atheism has been aptly called “the fool’s religion.” That descriptive is not meant to be insensitively harsh; rather, it is an affirmation of stark reality. “The fool has said in his heart, There is no God” (Psalm 14:1). Atheism is “religious,” and it is “foolish.”
Centuries ago scientists demonstrated that the theory of spontaneous generation, life bursting into existence on its own, is without supporting evidence. Francesco Redi and Louis Pasteur, through careful experimentation debunked the notion that life can generate itself.
Even renowned Harvard evolutionist, Dr. George G. Simpso, familiarly known as “Mr. Evolution,” conceded that though “most biologists think it probable that life did originally arise from nonliving matter by natural processes . . . spontaneous generation does not occur in any known case”
Sir Fred Hoyle, one of Britain’s prominent scientists, likened the accidental creation of life to a vast conglomerate of blind men (10 to the 50th power, one followed by fifty zeros) simultaneously solving scrambled Rubik’s cubes. This is an illustration signifying never!
Scientists have been trying to create life for the past half-century, and have failed miserably. If human intelligence cannot create life, does it seem reasonable that raw, non-intelligent “nature” could have done so?

I’m sure that you think you are more knowledgeable about science than I, and I assure you that I disagree, but the nice thing about science is that it does not matter who has more credibility or experience, but who actually has evidence and reason. This may be a shock to you, as religion does not offer this luxury, but I am quite fond of this particular trait.
You are correct in that humans don’t really know where life came from, but we have some good hypotheses that follow what evidence we have. I would like to direct you to talkorigins.org for more information. However, the process of evolution has nothing to do with the origins of simple life. As I wrote previously, it only explains how complex organisms developed over many generations from simpler ones.

Been to your propaganda site many times before and just not that impressed.
However, I’m not surprised someone like you depends on that type of blogtrash.
Evolutionists, like yourself, believe that from a tiny speck of inorganic, self-created matter, human consciousness and moral sensitivity evolved. That is utterly ludicrous! Can a rock decide to “think”? Can a proton “feel” guilt? The notion that morality has developed merely as a survival factor , is asinine in the extreme. Plants have survived, do they possess a moral code? And what if one decides that he doesn’t care about the “survival” principle? Can he do any “wrong”?

Actually, that depends on what moral code you consider. If you want to see actions in nature that appear to be moral, you can see below.
Egoism is quite obviously prevalent in nature.
To see deontology, you can look at any “social” animal that has roles to fulfill. A worker bee will die for the hive because that is its duty.
If you want to see altruism, there are fewer examples, but still some that can be seen if you Google “altruism in nature”.
That being said, it is not a true moral decision if it is not a rational being making the choices. Therefore, I agree with you that a proton “feeling” guilt is indeed ludicrous. The question this raises is what constitutes “rationality” and “consciousness” such that moral decisions can be made. There are a few explorations in how this can arise naturally, explained briefly here: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Consciousness#Scientific_approaches
However, the question of where awareness and so forth comes from, answered or otherwise, seems to have little to do with how genetic sequences are propagated through generations. What is your point?

Even if you accept the premise of a god, why a christian one? Why is the biblical account of creation any more valid than the Sumerian one, the Norse one or any other.
Scientific atheism is based on the premise that absent proof, we must assume the negative. Do you believe in wotan or zeus? No? Then you are an atheist.
As for Darwin recanting on his deathbed this is a well documented fabrication. Why must theists lie in order to make their point if there is so much ‘evidence’?
And evolutionary theory is more than Darwin. There’s been 150 years of advances that still support evolution. Unfortunately, most theists don;t even understand that the scientific theory is not the same a the common understanding of the word theory. In the former usage, it means something that has been tested – like the theory of gravity.
I sometimes wonder if there’s be more than a handful of religionists if we made the teaching (indoctrination) of religion regulated like alcohol – i.e. not permissible for those under 21. Of course it much easier to brainwash children – in the same way they can be taught that it’s normal to be sexually abused by their religious leaders.
And even if the god that so many people here claim to follow (they obviously haven’t read their bible) were real, he’s such a dick there’s no way I’d worship him. Any omnipotent being that allows mass natural disasters, millions of children to stave to death, wholesale rape and murder, etc because he ‘loves us’ is the textbook definition of an abusive partner at the very least.
The good news is that in most of the advanced and educated world religion is dying off.

If I lived in a society in which I encountered a significant number of people who believed in Zeus, I would take the time to examine their belief and determine if there was any evidence for it. Since I live in twenty-first century America, not first-century Greece, I don’t have any pressing need to make a case against Zeus. (That case was made then quite well and does not need to be rehashed, does it?) Certainly, if I went around proclaiming that Zeus didn’t exist, I would be prepared to give reasons for that claim. Unlike what militant atheists do today.
I should add that it isn’t quite right to say that Christians demand that atheists disprove God’s existence. Rather, we ask atheists to examine the evidence honestly and see where it leads. But when have honesty and militant athiesm ever been compatible?
And the God is a “psycho” argument is just so old and unoriginal. Can’t you parrot anything else in that book of propaganda by Richard Dawkins?
God is not brutal, vengeful, or bloodthirsty. This is a caricature laid out there by dishonest atheists that ignores the contexts in which God commanded people to be put to death.
Anyone who is truly open-minded and interested in getting answers to sincere questions about the Bible has a wealth of resources available. One that I especially recommend is Gleason L. Archer’s fine reference book, Encyclopedia of Bible Difficulties.

There are numerous examples of god being vengeful, spiteful, jealous, angry and down right nasty to all his beautiful creatures. Even Jesus was a bit of a terror in his youth.

You atheists are a strange bunch. You spend large hunks of your adult lives getting all hot and bothered about someone you claim does not exist. They then spend zillions of hours informing us how lousy, bad, twisted, putrid and rotten God is.
It is about as sensible as me continuously telling everyone how wicked, demented, harmful and poisonous the tooth fairy is – and then promptly informing one and all that no such thing as the tooth fairy even exists. Duh.
These complaints really sound like those of a spoiled five-year-old who really can’t stand acknowledging or submitting to her own parents.
These continuous rants about God are becoming as predictable and tedious as they are acerbic and bitter. And all they really do is tell us about the complainant, not the object of the complaint
I’m sorry you are one of these obsessive personalities who can’t get the God-idea out of your head. You seem particularly upset by the idea of an angry or punishing god.

Wow, because being called a whiny child isn’t an exhausted insult, either.
Listen, I have absolutely no problem with religion. I don’t care if you worship god, because if it makes you happy, then more power to you. Do I believe it – no. But that’s just my opinion. Just as yours is yours. But when I am constantly told I’m a heretic, when people try to convert me, when religion invades my life because people can’t just live and let live – that’s what drives me bonkers. I don’t look down on you for being Christian or Muslim or Hindu, etc, etc, or try to convert you to “godlessness” so why am I dirt?
The thing that drew me to science was that it is constantly questioning itself. Most concepts in science are theories, not laws. That is because there is no way to definitively conclude that they are always correct. Religion takes every word in a holy book as being law, and then only abides by those that are most convenient. I trust people who are always looking for the right answer more than those who scream that they have it and try to force it down my throat. Just my opinion though.

For example, the Darwin didn’t “recant” on his deathbed. This is an urban myth. Furthermore, whether or not he did is inconsequential. Darwin is not a prophet. We are not just taking his word about the development of life. Evolution is a fact that has been proven by just about every biological experiment ever performed.

Rev Custer, I am really interested in your religion and you have some interesting statements. Can you give me the christian answer to the following question? I would generally like to know.
1, If the planet is 6-7000 years old why are there dinosaur bones all over the world? Dino’s wernt mentioned in the bible but obviousley did exist more than 6000 yrs ago.
2, Why do you argue against evolution? couldent it be part of gods plan? As he is supposedly all knowing couldnet he have just created an organism that continually changed, adapted and strived to survive and get better at surviving? Couldent god have sparked evolution?
3, So with all the proof/so called proof that evolution does exist wouldent you be arguing against gods greatest (possibly) creating?
4, The origanle report at the top states the turin shroud has been “proved” to be the shroud jesus was wrapped in when dead. How was this proved? by science that we can believe in?
5, Why was the bible that is in use written several hundred years after the death of christ? The church admits the convention of Ee (may have got the name slightly wrong there) took all 20 odd gospels, took the bits they wanted and scrapped the ones that they didnt want. They admited changing their religion to fit in with as many people as possible. So if they put together what they wanted how can we follow it as the truth?

wvolution does not belive that magically monkeys sudnely became humans.
more like a group of them started to show a few physical traits that the other monkeys didn’t these traits were beneficial so they were passed on and in the long run became the basis for humans. but the monkeies who did not recive these traits whille at some kind of disadvanatage did not losse their grounds for liveing and thus still exists today.
“The big bang theory is impossible”
again you do not understand the idea of the big bang theory.
it’s not explosion of nothing. it’s an explosion of everything.
onceagain it’s like me saying you belive in that nothing created everything because nothing was all powerful and wanted it that way.
the big bang theory explains how everything was compressed into a tiny amount of space. all matter was there but it was only a fraction of the siece it would come to be. then for an admitedly unknown reason this matter started to expand at a raid rate. it still does to this day.
“There is lots of historic evidence of Jesus”
true and few agonostics and atheists( at least the ones you should care to even begin discussing with) will deny this. but just because a man 2000 years ago calimed to be the son of god does not make it an undeniable truth. if that was the case i have personally met 3 sons of god.
and if the fact that he could preform miracles is prood then i propes that darren brown or chris angel is the second comeing of christ because i sure as fuck have no way to explain half the shit they pull of and it could all very well be defined as miracels.
“If God didn’t create the Earth, why does everything work so well?”
it’s not a coincidense. evoultion explain quite nicely how it’s not.
simply put if something doesn’t work or doesn’t fit together it will die and be forgotten. but the stuff that do work by mere chance will conteniue to exists and further efine itself to the point where it becomes even better at surstaining itself. you belive that forsomething to work god must have preplaned it. but if that was true progress could not exists. the fact that we have tvs or the internet or even the abilty to make prints of the bible is proof that he can not exists following that logic.
Miracles happen everyday
they are not relevant their belif why should they share them. i don’t see christians shareing the news that evolution has been further proven rather you try to prove they are wrong. atheists do the same.
why should only christians be alowed to share their belif?
and i will not deny that faith can heal. a postive atitude that you will get better can help many problems and wether that comes from beliveing god is watching over you or because you belive in yourself that is fine by me. i just don’t understand why you’d bet on a guy you belive is the embodiment of wrath would watch over you.

Hey, aren’t Christians supposed not to tell lies? Because that is a big, blatant one.
Not only Darwing never claimed to regret speakign of evolution, but if you care to read the successive editions of the book in each version he carefully removed some of the “atenuating” expressions he used in the first edition. For example, in the first edition he used to talk about God having created the wonderful system that is evolution, obviously to avoid hurting the feelings of believers. In later editions of the book (some published very close to his death) he simply skipped those and simply dismissed God for the whole book. So if Hell is real, he surely is burning there because he never recanted, nor could he as what he claimed was the inescapable conclusion from logic.
But more importantly, we don’t care. Even if Darwin had said he was wrong in his last day, Atheists don’t “believe” in Darwin. We read his book, see logic and try to find flaws in the claims. It doesn’t matter if the author of a book is respected or not. It doesn’t matter if he/she believes in what he writes. It’s the logic that matters. If Darwin turned out to be a jerk, that doesn’t change the fact that what he offered was logically sound and substantiated by some evidence at the time, and immense amounts of later evidence.
Atheists don’t believe in anything other than logic. The Big Bang might be proven false if someone finds a hole in the logic (and no, your caricature version doesn’t count). Until then, it is accepted as the best explanation available. I don’t care who the author is as long as I can verify his claims and experimentally analyze them.

Are you one of those colored people with intellectual impediment? “Third world countries” are places where people still lived in the jungle and chewed on bamboo shoots. Does America look like that? Where I’m ministering, Africa, is definitely a third-world country because we still have colored folks preferring to live in caves even though we have provided for them spacious cages to protect them from the elements.

1. Many African countries are (in the colloquial definition) third, fourth and fifth world countries (or in modern terms: developing countries), but South Africa is so developed that they are borderline first-world, and some could argue that they are a first-world country. And Africa is not a country.
2. The true definition of a Third-world country was a country that remained non-aligned to capitalism or communism. It has nothing to do with race, or dietary habits.
3. In North Africa, it is safer for people to live in caves. The caves are naturally kept cool in warmer weather, and warm in cooler weather. There are many modern cave-dwellers, in developed regions, such as Malibu.
4. Cages hardly protect from the elements. They just make you more vulnerable to them. And to say they’re spacious is a matter of understanding perception. A space is perceived smaller the longer you are in it, so I’ve been told.
5. Your assumption that only black people live in developing countries is incorrect. There are many developing regions with a range of races. Asian, Middle-Eastern, European, or American(surprise!).
6. Please refrain from repeatedly stating that one race is worse than another. That notion is blatantly racist, and profoundly conceited. Your arrogance is immensely repugnant.
7. Please do not try and diagnose people with a type of intellectual impairment, they most likely don’t have one. And basing such a brash statement on a singular argument is terribly illogical. And assuming that only someone of a different race could have an intellectual impairment, is, again, prohibitively racist.
I calmly request that you stop uttering such brash allegations and examine your statements before posting them.
Thank You

As a Christian, I’m pretty ashamed of this article. From the end of the article: “Atheists always cite studies, but strangely they never cite these studies.” Where are the cited studies about prayer being scientifically confirmed? America is the most powerful country because of God? China is going to have the most powerful economy in the next decade and they are definitely not a Christian nation. “They only do this [deny anecdotes of miracles] because the existence of Jesus threatens every lie they tell.” Statements like that are exactly why people are turned away from Christianity. This entire article in fact is just going to confirm an atheist’s beliefs. The only person this article will help is the ignorant Christian. Seriously…I’m praying that as Christians, we would start analyzing our beliefs. We can still have a child-like faith, without having child-like arguments.

The article you have written is very interesting but i have some problems with it.
1) How can you deny evolution. There is scientific evidence in the form of fossils etc that prove human have `evolved´ from the neanderthal. The link below should shed some light into what i can only call “your closed mind”.
http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC1635020/?tool=pmcentrez
If God didn’t create the Earth, why does everything work so well?
2) Again this is explained very well by evolution. We have adapted to be able to eat bananas etc and the only reason we were able to evolve adapt and live was because there was oxygen already here. The earth is proven to be millions of years old yet what you are saying is that god just plonked us on this earth less than 20,000 years ago. Why did he wait all that time if theoretically he does exist. Did god decide to create white and black people? No. We have evolved due to the environment and atmospheric temperatures in different areas of the world.
Think of the size of the universe. It is impossible to imagine how big it actually is. The probability therefore, of other life forms is actually quite large. Do you really believe god said one day “well ive made the incredibly complicated human form, what shall i do now?” and he created a tiny micro organism.
MRSA is a virus that is proven to evolve. That cannot, in anyway, be denied.
“Covering up the truth is often what Satan’s minions do”
Please give me evidence of satan.
I do agree with you that a man names Jesus did exist but he performed no miracles, only science ahead of his time. But this is a very Christian belief and how can Islam, Buddism etc be explained then. If there is only 1 god why do other religions believe in more than one. If there is only one god then why does everyone not believe in the same religion.
Basically you very much need to rethink some of your ideas.
Other than Jesus there is no hard evidence that would stand trial in a court that god exists, whilst scientists have can actually prove their beliefs.

The best part of this article is despite the headline, only 3/5 points actually refer to science and none of them actually restate the “scientific proof” correctly.
1. Darwin apparently regrets evolution because Alex K. Keating says so, and the possibility of multiple species of monkeys is clearly a myth.
2. At no point in the big bang theory is there nothing. Just everything compressed into an infinitesimally small point in space. (Also, big bang theory is not the only scientifically proposed origin)
3. Jesus existing as a human being in no way shape or form proves he was the son of god
4. Have you ever tried to eat a pomegranate? They are so healthy but impossible to eat, no god is that mean….
5. Miracles happen every day, on a TV show, where the “miracle worker” then always seems to want you to send money to….
So, I’m thinking if science is really so wrong I and others can take our engineering, physics, etc. degrees as well as everything our incorrect science gave us (refrigerators, cars, planes, air conditioning) and then Alex can see how easy it is to survive in this world that works so perfectly.
P.S. Though I do admit this is the sort of intellectual level I would expect from someone who looks to be about 45, and still only has a job status of intern.

I am a Christian. I am a conservative. I’m also a scientifically minded, educated person. I believe (as do millions of mainstream Christians) in the big bang theory. I also believe in Darwinian adaptation and natural selection. Anyone who has done their homework and understands what the biblical story of creation really says (in Hebrew, not poorly translated English from hundreds of years ago) knows that the six thousand year old Earth is an absurd misinterpretation of Genesis.
Everything I’ve just said is pointless to the argument at hand because this is a SATIRICAL website. Do you people get all fired up over articles on The Onion’s website? Those of you talking about Africans being monkeys are obviously the only intelligent people on here because you know its all just a joke and are playing along.

I sgree, Ice, and got a little story to back it up.
Over in central Oregon there’s a bunch of what them a-theists call “fossil beds.” Some minister named Thomas Condon (a town’s named after him back there) found ‘em. They say it proves the dinosaurs and old oceans and millions of years an’ all that.
Well guess what? Turns out Thomas Condon was some queer from Portland posing as a minister, and that all the fossils was made in a couple a machine shops in San Francisco an scattered over there by a whole pack a them Chinese queers brought in to mine the gold.
Cowboys took care a the Chinamen eventually, but the dang federal government (for now) declared the fossils a “national monument.” One a the many ways they try to shove that queer science (an more) down our throats.

Once again,this whole website is for comical entertainment so getting into a theological discussion here is quite silly, but…
I believe the big bang is the moment God created the universe, and his ability to calculate with precision that this incomprehensibly large event would lead, billions of years later, to a place hospitable for life as we know it only reinforces my faith in his infinite wisdom. I’m not Catholic but one billion Christians in that faith accept this concept.
Science is not, nor will it ever be absolute. There are multiple theories as to how the universe as we know it came to be here and they all have factual evidence to support. The big bang is the currently accepted model because it aligns itself with the largest percentage of observations of the universe today. There is a completely possible model that involves a creation six thousand years ago but it is far less probable than the big bang and has some very quirky interpretations of the data we have.
As for Darwinism, it explains how Noah could have saved all the kinds of animals in the world in a relatively small ship. He couldn’t have possibly put all the millions of different species on his boat but he didn’t need to. For instance, he didn’t need a zebra, a horse, and a donkey, etc. He brought a mating pair of large quadrapeds and their descendants have “evolved” (I hate that word) into the different species we see today. By this process Noah only needed several thousand animals to cover all the different kinds of animals in existence.
Its sad how science has been hijacked by atheists. It wasn’t that long ago that science was the study of how God set things up, not the study of disproving God’s existence.
One last thing. If the world is only six thousand years old why doesn’t the old testament mention seventy-five foot tall reptiles walking around. Seems like someone would have wrote that down.

Then why is it so much of a leap to say that God gave all life the ability to evolve after several hundreds of centuries? Why is it that big of a leap to say that the story of Adam and Eve is just a metaphor for human intelligence coming about, that the names of the first two, true humans that exist to this day were named Adam and Eve? You have to remember that people have always loved metaphors and stories, so much so that proving fact from fiction from these stories becomes more difficult the further back you go. Hell, people are debating to this day if William Shakespeare wrote all of his plays or if multiple people went under the pseudonym of William Shakespeare, or if William stole plays, or if it’s some combination, and that guy lived in the mid 1500′s; having to back-track all the way to several thousand years before Christ was born with very limited information is even more difficult. To completely rely on a book that’s 2000 years old with so much in the advancements of technology is nothing short of foolish as far as historical events are concerned. Back then, they didn’t know that dinosaurs existed, and how would they? They didn’t dig up several hundred to several thousand feet into the ground actively searching for it because they didn’t even come across any evidence that there was something underneath the sand and dirt. That’s just the tip of the iceberg, if you want proof that not everything in the bible is true, all you have to do is just look around.
Does religion explain everything? No. Does science explain everything? No. Does religion AND science explain everything? No, but it does a lot better job of filling in the holes left from both sides, especially if it’s possible that every religion is true in some way. Who’s to say that your Christian God is really Zeus/Jupiter? Or who’s to say that the entire Greek pantheon is more or less God broken down into bits? How did God come about? God couldn’t have made himself from nothing if he didn’t exist to do so, so somehow he had to have been made, and what about the force that created him? You can carry that question back a million times and still not be anywhere near the beginning.

You know, just as a point. America is not a Christain nation. The U.S. Constitution does not mention God. The mention of Religion in the 1st Ammendment and Article Six serve to separate religion from nation. “In God We Trust” wasn’t on the US coins until the 1863 and on paper money in 1957. the words “Under God” weren’t added to the Pledge of Alliegence until 1954.
It is also thought that the Big Bang was caused by a singularity event about 14.7 billion years ago.
The arguement of still having monkeys is a little like saying “The British once ruled India. Why does Britain still exist?”. I’ll let you figure that one out yourselves.

Jewge, the Declaration of Independence does mention God and the Constitution is worded so we do not force religion on anyone. America is a Christian nation. Christian heritage and tradition are woven into the founding fabric of this country. People do not have to like it and can practice other religions, that is why the Constitution mimics the Bible in giving everyone free will. But just because people can choose a wrong religion over the right, it still does not mean this is not a Christian nation. It is.

Besides all this “proof” I still have some questions;
- were did dinosaurs come from? Surely you can’t deny that they have been around a lot longer than us humans. Or is that one of god’s famous “tests”??
- Where did your god come from?? Was he just there all of a sudden??
- where did the earth come from? It says in the bible that at first, there was nothing.
So the earth can come from nothing, but the universe can’t??
- Know your facts if you want to deny the big bang theory. It doesn’t come from nothing, but from a highly compressed particle. This is, theoretically, not “nothing”.
By the way; there is nothing scientific about saying “lots of people said Jesus performed miracles”….
Lots of people say they were abducted by aliens too. In fact, lots of people used to say that the earth was flat. (guess who)
Those same people used to say that the earth was the center of the universe. Or do you still believe that?? By talking about the big bang theory you at least admit that there is such a thing as a universe? And you agree with me that the earth is round? Than why did Christianity keep up the idea that it was flat for so long? (they even killed people who disagreed, and burnt books about it!)
Could it be they were wrong???
Do you know why the big bang theory is called a theory? Because it IS! Nobody is 100% sure. But at this time this seems very likely. The main difference between science and religion is, that science is actually openminded about other options. Religion however claims there is only one single option, and nothing else…..

You’re all idiots. Arguing over the internet. Not chastising you all would be wrong. It’s obvious god is real;look around you. Don’t give me that “big bang theory” option, because what can cause a single particle to create the universe? Not itself, obviously. Quantum Mechanics does prove that particles move randomly, however a particle can not explode on its on at will, and create worlds without end. Maybe Jesus did create the big bang, which then created the world in 6 days, and rested on the last because he was satisfied. The mind of a human is NOTHING, to what it could be. The average Human uses to 1-3% of their brain, whereas a genius such as Albert used 5-6%. What we argue about is so silly. We argue because we do not understand. We do not understand because we do not fully know. We do not fully know because we are not capable of solving this equation of life on our own. Thats why God gave us faith, his only begotten son, revelation, prophets, and the only true church on the face of the plant, the LDS church. Yes I am a mormon, yes I have been atheist. I have thought of both, and tried to prove each wrong, and each right. Atheism is pride. Pride that a human knows more than God. Whatever us immortals give value, or call, could be completely off of the true, real version. To think you can be without God is damning yourself. Atheists say its (God) made up, falsy, a hoax, mythical, etc. Well thats extremely funny. You claim to be logical, but thats not logically thinking. You Say, show me your God. Is God really going to, if you don’t even in believe in him? No. Even if you do, he wont. He’s showed him self a few times in history, to my knowledge < 10. He chooses who he, or Jesus, or any angel will show themselves. Mocking God is one of a persons greatest mistakes. When you die, all your "intellect"-(in the sense of "Atheism" Beliefs) will not matter. God will be judging you, your works, and your heart. As a mormon, somethings do not make sense. However, things have always never made sense, sometimes they do later on in life, sometimes you'll never know. We're just puny people on this planet, and its our time to progress and grow as people. I respect atheists as people, infact my girlfriend was an atheist. Greatest person to come into my life. I have good friends who do not believe in God, and I do not care. i have tried to share with them my religion, but they reject it. That is there agency, and for each action there is a reaction. So in sense, they will receive the consequences for denying God either in this life, or the life after. Science and God are both needed, for God created the Brain, the soul, imagination, and anything that exists, because he created the person. Atheists always say "why do bad things happen to good people" Vice versa. Well, why do good things happen to bad people? It's about growing, and learning people. Things happen to make people stronger,to draw people closer together, for a reason.When we're all dead, we'll all know why things went the way they did. Chance is not real; it is made up. Things don't spontaneously happen, randomly act, or "just cause". God doesn't meddle in our affairs, he gave us free agency. and how the person uses their free agency will receive the consequence or the praise it deserves.
Also, people have an insecurity. The insecurity that if science cant prove it, then it is wrong. Well science ( You can ask any scientist) That experiements and methods take time. Sure, they can say God doesn't exist, probably, due to this factors. "Probability" is a big factor. It's never 100%, and never will be. for ex. scientists didn't know smoking was bad, until years later. Same with Coffee, and tea, pornography, etc. It all manipulates the brain, your body, and to an extent enslaves you. That could go with the existence of God as well. Maybe now, they've proven he is not real, however there is that "chance" that he could be, and could be proven. I'm not a genius, I'm no professor, or ivy league student. I think a lot, i keep my sides open for both parties. I think the best way to do something is to take all possible evidence, arguments, opinions, etc. and then make a final decision based on the information gathered. Ignorance is a major folly, but so is pride. A human will never be able to wrap their mind and fully gain a concept of life. You'd have to be perfect. Whereas God and Jesus both are. For now, who knows. Maybe God does not exist? maybe we just rot in the ground. Maybe he does, and maybe life exists after death. I am set in my beliefs, and i can credit them because I have seen both sides of the fence, I have studied as many aspects of Atheism/God, I have prayed, I have not prayed, I have opened my mind to anything and everything. I then reasoned, then came to my conclusion. Basic science guys. I'm not hear to purge my relgion, but I hope you all take a look at The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day saints. Go to it, read the book of mormon. Find out for yourself. Dont go off of word, or youtube, or your beliefs. Read the material, Go to the church, pray, then see if Atheism is still an option. It may be, it might be. But if you haven't thoroughly examined each side, you can never pick a side, because you are a fence walker. Oh and by the way, the whole theory of evolution is a joke. DNA testing has proved all sorts of holes in that theory. Many scientists have proved it is not possible, look it up, or read some books. I'm not gonna cite all my stuff I've said, because i don't have the time. Maybe you guys should take the time to figure out things for yourself:)<3 Oh and to that lady about finding yourself at the wrong end of a gun, wouldn't the wrong end of the gun be the safe end? Cause the right end is where the bullet comes out. Think about it, before you trying humorously destroying someone via discussion. <3

evolution doesn’t state that we came from “monkeys” so to speak, it states that we share a common ancestor. Get your facts right. america was not founded as a christian nation *technically* even if it has the majority in america, it might not elsewhere. also, everything does not work so well… there is still suffering and hate and violence, you are just too blinded to see it as it really is.

ok guys! Where’s the scientific basis for athesim? Hmm… the big bang? How did this happen? Two particles colliding in the right orientatoion and direction to create a reaction as immense as our universe.
Not only is this theory virtually impossible to visualise but it also doesn’t make sense! How can something we can’t even see create something bigger than we will ever see? Plus Newtons law: energy can never be created nor destroyed hence the only outcome can be seen in God created the world. This is so much more logical than particles colliding can’t you see?
Although i’m a Christian, I believe in evolution to a small degree. No way can a single unicellular orgainism through a series of mutations evolve into the biggest mammel on earth: the blue whale. Now thing about it; ‘scientifically’ our earth as been comfirmed to be a couple of billion of years old. Now mutations happen on a very rare basis and most are highly selected against. Mutations take millions of years to take place and very often recessive or heterozygous. To top this our body has mechanisms that repair these mechanisms. Thus it is very unlikely that we have evolved from unicellular organisms just like supposely whales did since mutations rarely take affect and if they do, only over many of millions of years; hardly enough mutations to create a whale in billions of years.
All this racism is stupid. Black and white people are pretty much genticially the same. We all came from adam and eve and through breeding with different partners and in different environments then sutle differences were noticed such as increased melanin in black people to cope with hotter environments. Bascially we all came from adam and eve and God loves us regardless of gender, age or race.
Miracles are true especially as there has been many accounts of NON-BELIEVERS witnessing signs and converting rather than just believers.
Our purpose on earth is to be tested by God. This can be seen in such events as the Christchurch earthquake back at my home or the Japan earthquake and wars. We can make choices in the world because god has given us this capacity.
I would like to ened on a further note. The values of Christianity are intergral to the survival of our species. They encompass love, geneoristy and peace amongst other things. We need this as a species to ensure a stable future. If everyone followed christianity then there would be know need for war because war is forbidden, there would be no hate, no adultery and we would protect our environment. The only thing we would be truly tested by would be natural disasters such as famine and earthquakes but if we were all christians and were generous and peaceful in these times then there would be no need for mercy or grief and we would overcome these problems. This is Gods test and the outcome he would like to witness.
I could go on and on into scientific reasoning for God but i have no time. (have a biochemistry exam in 3 days haha)I can’t see any scientific evidence against god sorry! If anyone feels the need to argue against solid scientific evidence feel free to email: william722@gmail.com

To disprove your “scientific” arguments,
1.–Even Darwin Regretted The Lie Of Evolution–
Do you have the mental capacity to ponder that maybe he regretted it at the last moments of his life because the Cristian church scared him into thinking the all-loving, all-forgiving God you speak of will lock him in Hell, a place of endless torture and inhumane, to say the least, treatment? All because he just wanted to try and understand the world around him?
2.–The Big Bang Theory Is Impossible–
It is quite possible actually. Something cannot come from from nothing, but that isn’t the argument of the Big Bang. The theory is that our universe was created from an extremely dense and microscopic particle. The only problem here is that the Christian idea of creationism IS the fact you just stated. Something cannot simply come from nothing. Isn’t that what God supposedly did? Evolution can be PROVEN. A thing such as abiogenesis comes to mind. Evolution is by now a FACT, the only theory is HOW it came to be where it is now.
3.–There Is Lots Of Historic Evidence Of Jesus–
True, there was a man named Jesus back in year 1. But there is no scientific or historic evidence to prove he did the things the Bible says he did. Here, it’s a debate of Dude Who Could Do Magic VS People Make Stuff Up. I hope you can choose the practical winner.
4.–If God Didn’t Create The Earth, Why Does Everything Work So Well?–
I really don’t want to have to answer this. Yep, everything on the entire face of the Earth is going so well /sarcasm/.
5.–Miracles Happen All The Time–
Again, do you have even 1 working brain cell in your head? Perhaps Atheists, such as myself, give citations to actual, medical healings because there is evidence to prove that they actually work. And perhaps I would cite “holy” healing if THERE WERE ACTUAL HEALINGS THAT WORKED. Would you care to give me one legitimate site that scientifically shows prayer works, a site that is put up not by a “healer” himself? No, you cannot.
Oh, and:
Theism
The belief that there was nothing then nothing then this bearded guy magically created EVERYTHING but then needed some guys rib to make ONE other thing, then a talking snake damned humanity, then Jesus turned water to wine, then was put up on a lowercase t and everybody will either get sent to Heaven or Hell and now Christians wear torture devices around their necks.
Makes perfect sense.
Why don’t you Christians ever take Occam’s Razor to anything?

Okay. Let me go on and explain every single one of them.
1.) (not necessarily a justification) but god came from nothing
2.) Jesus WAS real. So were the 179 people claiming to be the messiah at the time of jesus. He just didnt do all the hokey-pokey stuff
3.) I works so well because of selective genocide (or whatever). we all get different traits. No one is the same. Some people get ortism or whatever or diseases from birth. People/animals keep getting traits. They got traits that let them breath air. They lived. Their kids then got traits that happenned to suit the environment, they lived. People who got traits that didn’t, died
4.) NOT miracles. Placebo. they think god will heal them, they heal themselves. That’s why other religious praying works, such as praying to Allah, or whatever. Praying to a pencil would have the same healing affect

Dumbass Christians. Atheism isn’t believing in evolution or the big bang theory. It is not believing in religion until given any form of physical proof/evidence. We have not been given ANY evidence of it, so we don’t believe it. Dont try and say that the bible is proof. Unicorns have the same proof as God does. No physical proof, just in books

I was fearful at first. Then I read “No doubt thanks to the agenda’s being pushed by gays and their liberal co-conspirators to destroy our youth and convert the nation to communism.” Thanks for the much appreciated laugh.

Funny you say that something can’t come from nothing, well first of all Atheist don’t believe that we believe that something always existed then slowly over time things came together to form Galaxy’s, Stars, and the Planets. Also Christians believe that first there was only god then he suddenly created light, Didn’t god just create something from nothing?

I do not understand how these five ponts prove existence of the God. What a sick logic: because I believe that they are wrong I must therefore be right. If I do not believe that grass is red, does it automatically imply that it is blue just because I believe so? What if it is green?
This is actually quite the opposite of science, this is normally called dogmatism.

1: Actually, the Shroud of Turin was proven to be a hoax by religious scientists, through several different dating methods.
2: Evolution does not say we evolved from monkeys (chimps and other apes are NOT monkeys). It says that we (humans, chimps, gorillas, etc.) evolved from a common ape, much like how all marsupials (kangaroos, koalas, opossums, sloths) probably evolved from a creature called Sinodelphys, a tiny possum-like creature from 125 million years ago in China before Australia and Antarctica split away.
3: Darwin NEVER recanted his beliefs nor made a deathbed confession of guilt. This is a myth. Do a little research and you’ll see why Lady Hope was lying.
4: The Big Bang Theory doesn’t state that “something came out of nothing”. It says that everything in the universe, including space itself, was compressed into a point of dense energy the size of a sugar cube. That might sound ridiculous, but we are actually 99.9999% empty space, relatively easy to compress. If you were to enlarge an atom so that it’s nucleus were the size of a golf ball, the electrons would still be only the size of dust particles and would orbit about a kilometer away. The Big Bang theory does not invalidate intelligent design. It doesn’t explain WHY the universe expanded from that sugar cube-sized pellet of matter and energy, only that it did.
5: Scientists don’t just look at two statements and say “if that ain’t enough proof for you, you must be blind”. They run experiments over and over and over, and decide what postulates become theories by what experiments yield positive results 100% of the time. To this day, no experiment has proven Einsteins Theory of Relativity (The precursor to the Big Bang theory) to be wrong. If you’re going to start dismissing so many scientists, don’t stop now… you might as well stop watching TV, talking on your mobile phone, using your computer, and “magically” cooking your food in the microwave oven.
6: So-called “documented” cases of sick people being healed are never actually documented. Just because you see someone stand up in a wheelchair on TV doesn’t mean they were healed. No doctor verified they were sick, and no doctor verified they were healed afterwards. Don’t get me wrong, that doesn’t mean I dismiss miraculous healing. After all, my grandmother prayed that she would live to see all her grandchildren born, and her cancer went into remission until 1 year after the last grandchild was born. She died that year. It’s hard to dismiss that.
–Not that you’ll even listen to anything I’m saying, because you’re so convinced that scientists are wrong that you’ve become delusional, but I’ve found that it takes a lot of ignorance and naivety to completely dismiss science. Most of the things you hear that seem to invalidate theories is just urban legend and hearsay conjured up by apologetics and people so deluded by their beliefs, which are generally unfounded by scripture anyway, that they are willing to lie in the face of humanity, despite their “moral guidance” against it, so that their beliefs would not be proven wrong.
My advice is that people should stop trying to disprove science with religion and trying to disprove religion with science. The two are NOT mutually exclusive, and one embracing the other can serve only to increase the awe and wonder of discovery and wisdom. There’s no reason you can’t use an open mind, and with careful interpretation, see that Genesis was written with the best understanding a human could have had after having seen the creation of the universe. Words he might have used to describe what he saw might have been allegorical.
In my opinion, believing that science is completely wrong is ignorant and hypocritical, while saying that it’s impossible for God to exist and miracles to occur is rather unscientific. After all, when one makes a sudden discovery about something that is incredibly improbable, but not impossible, he experiences an enormous amount of joy.

The belief that a cosmic Jewish zombie that was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master so he can remove an evil force in your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convince by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree…makes even more sense.

Scientists a century ago believed the smallest single living cell was a simple life form. The theory developed that perhaps lightning struck a pond of water causing several molecules to combine in a random way which by chance resulted in a living cell. The cell then divided and evolved into higher life forms. This view is now proven to be immature to the degree of being ridiculous. The most modern laboratory is unable to create a living cell. In fact, scientists have been unable to create a single left-hand protein molecule as found in all animals. please come up with something better than a silly poster you found on google

This is a joke, RIGHT?

I’m praying to quantum physics this isn’t serious. If it is, there are SO many replies to all these arguments and I just don’t have the energy to parrot them back anymore. I suggest you search all these arguments online to see how every atheist ever on the internet has explained them. Hey, I did it for you. I thought I might find a theist that can argue rationally with atheism but… (shakes head) apparently not.

Dear Author,
I am no bible bashing, right wing Satan loving atheist, I am simply put, an adolescent. 15 years of age. Raised to believe in what i like and what I find acceptable grounds for something as strong as my faith and I’m sure you came to your own conclusion on what to believe. I believe your logic is flawed.
The big bang theory is impossible: Rapid expansion is the new proposed theory of creation as the big bang theory is as you said, flawed.
There is lots of historic evidence of Jesus: There is no doubt Jesus existed, what is doubted however, is whether he was “magical”.
If God didn’t create the Earth, why does everything work so well?: Absolute chance, now this is mis-interpreted by many spiritualists, you look at all the planets in the universe and see how many are inhabited. The earth became supportive of life due to it being the 1 in 100 000 000 000 or so chance of there being a planet to support life.
Miracles happen everyday: I could say “mind over matter.”, ” The will to live is greater than the will to die” but i will say once again CHANCE life is mysterious but that doesn’t mean it’s un-understandable, instead it make it more understandable to the fact that it’s understandable.
I challenge a fundamentalist to question me.
